She Quit Her Family and Found Herself novel Chapter 129

After being trapped at sea for hours, teetering on the absolute brink of psychological collapse, Herbert and Sylvie's group was finally rescued.

By the time they were brought back to the resort, it was past midnight.

The main lobby was brightly lit. Justin Jameson paced frantically back and forth, entirely unable to sit still.

The news had already exploded online. The reported casualty count—one dead, three critically injured—had him practically sick with anxiety.

He desperately needed to know who had died and who was hurt!

H&J Technologies was already in its most precarious state ever. The gyroscope component crisis remained unsolved, and they had failed to secure subsequent funding. Justin had even swallowed his pride and begged his family for help, but to no avail.

His parents were strictly conservative with their investments, and H&J was simply too volatile a risk right now.

The entire point of today's company retreat was to stabilize internal morale. To have a disaster of this magnitude strike now was the ultimate death blow.

It was pouring gasoline on a burning house.

"I heard someone specifically warned the marina this afternoon not to sail out because there would be a riptide and a massive storm. But the staff completely ignored it and sent them out anyway."

"That's not true. The marina staff warned them, but that Ms. Sinclair insisted everything was fine and demanded to go."

"Tsk, talk about tempting fate. If they had just listened and stayed on land, none of this would have happened."

The hushed gossip of the lobby staff drifted clearly into Justin's ears.

Someone had explicitly warned Sylvie and Herbert, but they ignored the warning and forced the boat out anyway?

Just then, the survivors from the yacht finally stumbled into the main lobby.
