Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 148 The Sudden Downpour

The yacht's supplies were limited, making it less comfortable than the estate if the weather worsened.

Suddenly, Liam noticed a speedboat in the middle of the sea. Initially unsure, he moved closer to the railing and confirmed it was indeed a speedboat. "Look, there's a speedboat out there," he pointed out.

Hearing this, Zoren and Jasper came over.

"Huh? Who would be out on a speedboat at this time?" Jasper remarked.

"It's pitch black out there; there's nothing to see."

Violeta joined them, curious, "Looks like there's someone on that speedboat, seems to be a woman. Let's get the binoculars and check."

With the binoculars, they could clearly see it was Hattie.

Violeta declared, "It's Hattie."

Zoren joked, "Isn't that Hattie? Liam, that's your sister."

Liam's face fell. "Scr*w you."

Zoren retorted, "Well, she is literally your sister. I'm not wrong."

Hayden wiped his hands and joined them at the railing, looking towards the speedboat. "What's she doing coming here in a speedboat at this hour?"

Jasper speculated, "Maybe she's trying to get on our yacht?"
