Chapter 1859 To Try or Not to Try? "Sorry ‘bout that, Mr. Mazel. Got caught up earlier and missed your call," Bella's voice remained cool. "Ms. Benett is bogged down with social stuff at the moment, can't take calls. She left her phone with me." Paul reined in his annoyance, querying, "So, what's the plan now?" Bella explained calmly, "Okay, here's how it goes, Mr. Mazel. Ms. Benett thought it was dangerous to hit the waves after sundown. That's why she set the departure for 4:00 PM. The thing is, you got delayed and missed the ship. Not to worry, though —there's a backup boat ready to roll. Whether or not you're down for it, it's your call.” With that, Bella ended the call abruptly.
At that very moment, a man dressed like a fisherman approached.
As he got closer, Rochelle pinched her nose in apparent disgust.
The fisherman looked somewhat sheepish but asked, "Sorry to bother you. Are you Mr. Mazel and Ms. Matterson?" Rochelle didn't respond while Paul adjusted his suit, snorting from his chin with an almost arrogant flair.
The fisherman continued, "Ms. Benett arranged forto give you a lift. If you're up for it, feel free to hop on." By now, Rochelle had an unsettling hunch.
What kind of boat could a fisherman plan to take them on? Still, they followed him.
Upon seeing the boat, Paul's jaw dropped. Right there and then, he tugged Rochelle along, wanting to dash off.

To Paul's horror, that 'boat’ wasn't even hitting the mark as a legit boat. It didn't even have a canopy, to begin with.
It was a flat-bottomed contraption with no engine, rowed with wooden oars, dependent on human muscles! Con, seriously? It was the twenty-first century, and they were stuck navigating in this kind of outdated vessel? By this point, the larger ships at the dock had all sailed off, leaving them with no option but the flat-bottomed "boat." Rochelle was on the verge of fainting at the sight of the ‘boat.’ But she clenched her teeth and budged.
After enduring a day brimming with humiliation, she wasn't ready to brush it off. Rochelle had her mind set on a comeback, eager to teach Elisa a lesson or two.
With that determination, Rochelle managed to convince Paul, and eventually, they tagged along on the stomach-churning boat ride.
The boat incessantly rocked back and forth, lacking proper safety measures, and moved incredibly sluggishly.
Every now and then, seawater splashes cdashing in, and the salty sea breeze disheveled Rochelle's delicate hairdo and expensive dress.
Paul wasn't doing much better. They both vowed to make Elisa pay for subjecting them to this ordeal! Meanwhile, Elisa mingled with the group aboard as Bella led the way. Bella couldn't help but picture Rochelle and Paul in their pitiful state, especially after getting off a call with Paul — it brightened her mood.

She had recounted their awkward situation to Elisa, assuming they'd abandon the idea of joining the cruise.
Elisa smirked but kept quiet. She doubted they'd give up that easily, not after such a public humiliation. Given their vindictive personalities, they'd find a way to make amends.
Elisa lingered at the back of the group, with Gareth by her side. Out of the blue, a busybody employee asked about their relationship.
Before Elisa could chin, Gareth interjected, "We're friends, but I'm trying to win over Ms. Benett. So, keep your fingers crossed for me." Elisa could see the glimmer in the young girl's eyes momentarily fade and then light up again — a sure sign of a crush on Gareth.
Eventually, the employee gave Gareth an approving smile, commenting, "Good luck. I think you and Ms. Benett would make a great couple.” Elisa found herself surprised by the unexpected remark. Before she could respond, the young girl had already dashed away.
Gareth gave Elisa a playful nudge on the shoulder, "You see, even your employee thinks we're a perfect match. So, Ms. Benett, how about givinga chance?" MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
