Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 785

After boarding, right around the time Ethan disembarked, their assigned translator gave them a grand tour of the first-class accommodations before getting them settled in.

That first day, the meals served were exquisite and visually stunning.

Unfortunately, the entire family was violently seasick, and not a single person had the stomach to keep anything down.

By the second day, however, the ship’s security team suddenly arrived and forcefully evicted them from the first-class cabins.

The guards claimed their fees hadn't been renewed, which sparked a massive shouting match between the family and the security detail.

Maritime security teams were notoriously tough. When faced with a riotous crowd, they didn't hesitate to pull out their batons to quickly resolve the issue.

The Bennett family had never encountered anything so brutal. The loudest instigators caught a severe beating, forcing the entire group to pack up and drag themselves out of first class.

They immediately hunted down the translator to complain. He simply shrugged. "If you want to stay in first class, you'll need to pay the difference out of pocket. As for Mr. Hayes covering the tab, there are probably signal issues out here on the open ocean. The transfer hasn't gone through."

Naturally, the Bennetts refused to spend a dime of their own money. While first class was a luxurious dream, the seasickness had ruined it anyway. After inspecting the economy cabins and finding them far cleaner than their own rural homes, they swallowed their pride and accepted the downgrade.

At the end of the day, parting with their own cash was something they absolutely loathed.

Someone in the group raised a concern, "Are we going to have to pay for the rest of this vacation ourselves?"

"No way. Ms. Mercer is loaded. She didn't even blink when she put us up in that fancy hotel and bought us steak and red wine.

"This is just a minor glitch. There's no way Ms. Mercer would stiff us."

"Do you think that Hayes guy embezzled Ms. Mercer's money and left us high and dry?"

"Doubt it. They're billionaires. Why would they scheme over our pocket change?

"Come on, just get some sleep while you can."
