Rachel shook her head, a sly smile playing on her lips. “Em just letting him dig his own grave. The more he pushes me now, the more he’ll regret it later. Once he goes too far, and Grandpa finds out, he’ll be commend: Kammon won’t have any choice but to cooperate
Herb understood–ler Kamron make the mistake first, then, when he learned Rachel’s true identity, his guilt would make him want to make amends. At that point, it would be easy to press him into cutting ties with Yvette and helping them instead.
“Tort that a bit risky Herb still had doubts.

“Don’t worry, Kamron is small fry–Im not afraid of him” Rachel shrugged
“Alright, but you didn’t mention this to Grandpa. If he knew, he definitely wouldn’t approver”
I just had the idea on the fly. Who kisen Kamron would actually go for it‘
Rachel chuckled as she went back to munching on her macks. Soon, a voice called out from outside, urging them to head to the boat. The crew was ready for the sea fishing trip
George and Sybil were already on the small boat, and to Rachel’s surprise, Kamron was there too,
“Ms. Sarrail, you’re here Kammon greeted, a wide grin on his face, as though nothing had happened between them.
Herb leaned closer and whispered. “Looks like he hasn’t given up on you yet,”
Rachel, fully aware of Kamron’s intentions, gave him a small smile. “Mr. Hoover, good to see you.”
Sybill quickly approached, her voice sweet but with an edge. “Herb, I’m not very good at fishing. If I don’t know what I’m doing will you help me
Sybil had been furious after the scene carber, crying and calling Callie to vent. But Callie had encouraged her to keep trying. Despite seeing Herb’s interest in Rachel Sybil told herself that it wouldn’t last. Herb would eventually tire of her.
Her plan! Wait for that moment, and when it came, Rachel wouldn’t be so smug anymore.
Herbs frowned. “I’m not really that good either”

Sytal moved closer, noticing Rachel nearby, and sneered. “Well, I can teach you a thing or two. I mean, Rachel probably hasn’t even touched a fishing rod night The ones laere are worth a fortune. I doubt she’s ever seen anything like them”
She glanced at Rachel with disdain before turning back to Herb, her smile returning. “I brought the latest KnotGear rods. Would you like to give them a try?”
Rachel couldn’t help but feel incredulous at Sybil’s need to belittle her. Over a fishing rod! Really?
“Herl, go ahead and check i

Finally, the Levat set off, pulling away from the cruise ship and sating into the open waires.
Rachel sat casually by the side, completely unbathered, as the crew filled a bucket with fishi
George approached, the sea breeze raffling his hair. He glanced at the bucket before saying “So, you can fish after all.”

Rachel looked at the fish in the bucket, her tone indifferent “It’s been a while since I’ve fished. My skills are a bit rusty, but fishing is all about luck. And I’ve got good luck these days.”
George could tell she was subtly mocking him. Every time she said things like that, there was a hidden jab,
He sat down beside her, his voice turning serious. “Let me give you some advice: Don’t go up against Kainron. The Summit Group has controlled half of Elestol Cinemas for years because he knows how to operate in both the legal and the illegal sides of things. He’s dangerous.”
Rachel looked up at him. “Mr. Fox, I don’t need your advice.”
Tm just trying to warn you. You don’t need to be so hostile.”
George raised his voice in frustration.
Rachel shot him a sharp look. You can’t even keep your own sister in check, and now you’re here telling me what to do?”
Her words hit the mark, George was left speechless.
“You should focus on Sybil. Herb isn’t interested in her, so she needs to stop causing trouble. Otherwise, it’s the Fox family that will be embarrassed”
George’s face turned purple with anger. “What, are you so concerned about Sybil trying to steal Herb from you!”
Rachel couldn’t hide her disdain. “Sybil’s not even a threat to me. My warning was for you. Maybe you should pay attention.”
She turned the conversation back on him, unbothered. The truth was, she didn’t care about Sybil. She had bigger things to worry about, like making sure Yvette didn’t use underhanded tactics to harm Herb
But Sybil Please.
“You… George was practically seething, his temper rising
Rachel, clearly done with the conversation, stood up to leave, grabbing the bucket of fish. But just as she took a step, the boat lurched unexpectedly, as if it had caught a gust of wind.
Rachel lost her balance for a moment, almost toppling over U

the edge.
After a struggle, they finally managed to steady themselves. But as Rachel looked down at George, who was still pressed up against her, a wave of disgust washed over her.
His physique was as impressive as ever, but it no longer held any allure for her.
Just then, out of nowhere, the boat suddenly lurched violently, as if it had a mind of its own.
Rachel let out a stanled scream, her feet slipping out from under her. In the blink of an eye, she was plunged into the water.
“Rachel!” George’s heart dropped. He didn’t hesitate, Without thinking, he jumped in after her.
The two of them tectered on the edge for a moment, and just like that, they both tumbled into the water.
