Chapter 405
“Contact the control tower.”
Thus, they started their pre-flight check.
...
At the same time, Hera panted as she hurriedly got out of the taxi and charged toward the boarding gates.
Being the good friend she was, Jenny had revealed that Lucas would be flying today.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Hera had bought a ticket and rushed for the airport.
Thankfully, she made it in time.
Sitting down in her seat, she realized there was a good-looking man sitting beside her.
Upon closer inspection, she saw that it was Joseph Field, the mayor’s son.
Rumors have it that he and Lucas are best buddies...
“What a coincidence, Mr. Field.”
Joseph was minding his own business when someone sat down beside him, and he was immediately assaulted by
the cloying stench of perfume.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBarely refraining from gagging at the overpowering smell, a saccharine-sweet voice then sounded in his ears.
He raised his eyes and was greeted by the sight of a heavily made-up Hera Chapman.
Why am I so unlucky as to be sitting beside this woman of all people?
Despite his disgust and disdain, he still twitched his lips in a small smile and replied, “What a coincidence indeed.”
This is all that damn Spencer’s fault. He booked the ticket for me, yet he himself goes to sit in the last row! At least
he gets the luxury of sitting beside another man instead of this woman.
Hera glanced around before fluttering her fake lashes at Joseph. “Mr. Field, Lucas is piloting this flight, right?”
“Yeah.” He nodded.
“He was so angry at me for what happened last time; I wonder if he’s calmed down yet. Mr. Field, could you do me
a favor?” She wrung her hands together in nervousness and embarrassment.
Instantly, he understood what she wanted him to do. He cut her off before she could continue talking, “I don’t think
I can help you. Ms. Chapman, I’m really tired and would like to rest.”
With that, he put on his sleep mask and pretended to fall asleep.
Hearing that, Hera’s face reddened with anger.
Never did she expect that Joseph would reject her even before she had the chance to say anything.
Damn it! As if he would refuse if Ashlyn Berry had been the one asking him for help.
Nowadays, she could not help comparing herself to Ashlyn on every little matter.
The more she compared, the angrier she got. And the angrier she got, the more she hated Ashlyn.
...
Meanwhile, the plane continued on its way steadily as the sun slowly peeked out from the clouds to shine down on
it.
The plane had taken off at six-thirty in the morning, and it was now already eight.
The crew began to distribute breakfast to the passengers.
When Jenny came close to Hera’s seat, she gave the seated woman a pointed look.
Understanding immediately, Hera’s hands flew to her stomach while her brows furrowed deeply. She looked like she
was in a lot of pain as she gasped out, “I don’t know why but my stomach suddenly hurts really badly. Do you have
some medicine onboard?”
Jenny had promised Hera that she would try and create an opportunity for her to meet with Lucas.
She clasped a hand on Hera’s shoulder while stating in a concerned tone, “Please wait a moment, and I’ll get it for
you right away. I have to inform the captain of this matter. We don’t want to be responsible for anything happening
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto you.”
The way she said it was so pretentious.
Then, she turned to leave.
Knocking on the door to the pilot’s cabin, she entered and spoke in a soft voice, “Captain Nolan, one of the
passengers suddenly had stomach pain, and she looks very uncomfortable. Why don’t you go and check up on
her?”
Presently, Lucas was sitting in the co-pilot’s seat while Fred flew the plane. “Why should I? I’m not a doctor. Isn’t
there a medicine kit onboard?” His expression was indifferent, much like his voice.
Jenny chewed on her lips before she uttered, “Captain, I’m worried something might really be wrong with her. The
passengers are of the utmost importance, after all.”
Worried, Fred suggested, “How about I go take a look. Captain, let’s switch.”
Jenny shot him an annoyed glare but did not speak up.
Who invited you to have a look! This is not going as planned at all!
Back outside, Hera kept shooting impatient looks at the door to the cockpit. Finally, it opened.
