Chapter 2 Embarrassment

Chloe then watched Michael lean in and talk softly to Lucy with a gentle smile.

She had always been curious about what he would look like when he fell for someone. But now, when she witnessed it, she only felt relieved as Michael broke her heart too many times

before.

Maybe she would’ve died in a plane crash today.

But if she died, her enemies would get away with what they did. And the dirty deeds they did would remain buried.

Those who destroyed her family and hurt her and her mother would still live freely, maybe even sleeping with her husband and enjoying everything that once belonged to her.

As a wave of emotions washed over her, Chloe dropped her suitcase and wanted to lunge at him.

At the sight, Stella grabbed her arm and stopped her.

“Chloe, what are you doing? Captain Shawn was replaced at the last minute, which was one of the reasons why the accident happened. Even so, he’s not someone to mess with. Don’t go looking for trouble.”

Another colleague overheard it and added, “Yeah, we’re just

small fry. We can’t afford to make a scene. The company gave us a break today. Just go home to your husband and relax.”

Their words snapped Chloe back to reality.

Actually, she knew all too well that confronting Michael would only lead to embarrassment.

And when the word “husband” was mentioned, she only found it ridiculous.

After all, her dear husband was coaxing her nemesis, Lucy, right

now.

Michael was blind, and Lucy was shameless. They were meant for each other for sure.

“I was a bit worked up. But actually, my husband… died three years ago. Sorry, guys. I should’ve told you that earlier. Well, let’s drop it, okay?”

Her words stunned everyone, catching the attention of the executives preparing for their pre–flight check.

Among their gazes, Chloe sensed Michael’s warning gaze immediately, but she ignored it.

With a bitter smile, she grabbed her suitcase and left without even treating her wound.

After a soothing shower, Chloe treated her wound.

Sitting at her vanity, she stared at her wedding ring.

Then she pulled off the ring with all her strength and

determination. Rubbing her reddened finger, she tossed it into her jewelry box.

At 10:30 pm, Michael returned home, carrying a shopping bag with a brand–new handbag inside.

He saw Chloe browsing it on her computer before.

Today, his schedule was filled with all kinds of meetings. After dealing with them, he finally learned that Chloe was on the plane that nearly crashed.

Fortunately, it had landed safely.

As he thought of the indifferent look Chloe gave him earlier, he assumed she was mad at him because of Lucy.

Now, he believed that she was probably angry because he wasn’t there for her when the accident happened.

But Michael wasn’t worried about it. After all, Chloe always forgave him after he showed her even just a bit of kindness.
