NovelEnglishChapter 147 The Storm Is Coming The crew member cautioned, "Miss, we really can't go any further. We're already in the middle of the sea...
"1 Hattie dismissed him with a wave of her hand, "What are you scared of? The sea is calm. It doesn't look like a storm is coming. Just go over there, quickly!" With no room for debate, the crew member reluctantly steered the speedboat closer as Hattie demanded.
Once close enough to capture the figures on the yacht with her phone, Hattie hurriedly took a picture and sent it to Zelena.
The image was slow to load on the plane, and Zelena grew increasingly impatient.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow could Violeta possibly be vacationing on an island? That's absurd...
Hattie must have made a mistake.
When the photo finally loaded, Zelena quickly examined it.
Though Hattie did her best, the faces were still blurry, yet with her intense dislike for Violeta, Zelena immediately recognised that the woman in the photo was indeed Violeta! 'See, I wasn't wrong! That's Violeta! I can't capture it well with my phone, but with my binoculars, it's clear! That's Violeta with Jasper, Hayden, Zoren, and Liam! And yes, that yacht is Niall's! How could Violeta be hanging out with them?' While Hattie was stunned, Zelena was even more dumbfounded! Impossible, Zelena thought. It couldn't be.
Even if Violeta owned a cafe, it's newly opened and would not have generated much revenue. Where would she get the money for such an extravagant trip? Was it because of Jasper again? A frown formed on Zelena's face.
She tapped out a message quickly.
'It's probably just another trip with Jasper!' Yet, Hattie felt there was more to it.
Niall and Zoren both bore the last nWhite, as did Violeta.
Could it be that Violeta was also part of the White family? The thought struck Hattie as increasingly plausible.
'Have you ever considered that Violeta might be a White?' she typed.

Gillian and I thought the sbefore, but all the info on the Whites is available online. Where would they suddenly produce an heiress from? The family only acknowledges Niall!' That seemed logical.
Niall was known as the sole heir to the White Group, and Hattie's checks on him revealed no mention of a sister. Zelena continued: 'Also, before I reconnected with the Blakes, I looked into her real parents. They're just from snondescript village. They're not wealthy at all!' 'Hattie, you might be overthinking this. Violeta probably met Niall through Jasper and the others. Since Niall is Zoren's cousin, it wouldn't be strange for them to introduce her.' Hattie pondered Zelena's response.
Meanwhile, the crew steering the speedboat noticed the wind picking up oddly-it seemed a storm was indeed brewing.
Hattie grew up in Harbor City, not Quinston.
Despite Hattie's return to the Ridges in Quinston, her and Benson's status as illegitimate children made it hard for her to be accepted by the elite circles of the city, which was why she ended up associating with Zelena.
Hattie had hoped that Zelena, who claimed to be Violeta's sister, could provide sclarity. Yet, Zelena's firm statement that Violeta's biological parents were villagers only added to her confusion. Could Zelena's account really be accurate? Yet, Hattie felt that something was off-it all seemed too simple.
"Miss, the weather's turning. We should get going!" Hattie was still pondering when the urgent call from the crew member snapped her back to reality.
