A Sky-High Lesson: Manners at 30,000 Feet Chapter 9
A year had passed since then.My phone vibrated, showing a message from my private lawyer."Ms. Greene, the civil dispute between Klaus and Raine was settled today. Raine sued Klaus for domestic violence and was seeking compensation. The court partially upheld her claims."I raised an eyebrow and replied, "Got it."I had long stopped caring about the aftermath of those two and would only occasionally hear fragmented updates from my lawyer.After Klaus was kicked out with nothing to his name, he became a complete wreck. He lost the skills he relied on for survival and all his former glory, falling from a lofty position to a scumbag despised by everyone.The immense shock from his reality was more than he could bear. He drank heavily all day, and his temperament became irritable and volatile. He took out all his failures and resentment on Raine and their son.Domestic violence became commonplace in their "new family".Raine's good days were over too, and her dream of marrying int

Being fired and having his license revoked meant Klaus could never return to the skies he was so proud of for the rest of his life.His knees gave way, and he kneeled straight down in front of everyone. He crawled a few steps on his knees to my feet and reached out to grab my pant leg, but I kicked him away in disgust."Caitlyn! I was wrong! I was really wrong!"Tears and snot streamed down his face. He looked utterly disheveled, bearing no resemblance to the confident captain he usually was."I was tempted and lost myself! It was that bitch Raine who seduced me! I made a huge mistake in a moment of confusion! Please forgive me this once, okay? We're husband and wife! You can't do this to me!""Husband and wife?" I echoed, feeling like I had heard the funniest joke of the century. "When you altered my ticket for another woman and child, humiliated me, and even verbally abused me, did you remember then that we were husband and wife?""Caitlyn… Give me another chance… for the sake

"Oh, my God! The captain actually abused his authority to privately alter passenger information! This is unheard of!""That's terrifying! If he can change someone else's ticket for his mistress today, could he sell our information for something else tomorrow?""How can such scum with bad morals become a captain? I can't bear to think about entrusting the lives of hundreds to him!""If you can't afford first-class, then don't fly it! Stealing someone else's seat and then twisting the blame—this is a new low! How absolutely revolting!"Public opinion was instantly reversed. The disdain they had for me before was now directed as contempt toward Klaus and Raine.Klaus swayed slightly, almost unsteady on his feet. He looked at me regretfully and pleadingly, and his lips quivered as he tried to say something."Caitlyn… I-I was wrong… Please let me explain…"I coldly looked away, not even bothering to spare him an extra glance.Just then, Raine, who had been in a daze, finally snapped

The sharp shout made Klaus' outstretched hand freeze in mid-air.Everyone turned in unison toward the sound and saw a middle-aged man with an extraordinary presence quickly striding over.There was anxiety and fear in his expression, and his forehead was covered in sweat. He had clearly rushed all the way here."M-Mr. Conway?"Lawrence paled in fright upon recognizing the man, and his legs went so weak that he almost lost his balance.This was Jeffrey Conway, the highest executive president of their aviation group!He was a figure usually seen only in news reports or at annual company meetings. Why would he personally come to a plane about to take off today?Klaus was also stunned. He quickly withdrew his hand, straightened his uniform, and respectfully stepped forward."Mr. Conway, what brings you here? Has something happened?" he asked.However, Jeffrey didn't even glance in his direction and walked straight past him. Under the shocked and uncertain gazes of all the passenge

My words landed like an exploding bomb in the silent cabin.Klaus' face instantly turned as pale as a sheet, and fine cold sweat beaded on his forehead. With a panicked look, he subconsciously let go of Raine's hand. He opened his mouth, but he couldn't utter a single word of explanation.Beside him, Raine—after a brief moment of shock—immediately jumped up, screeching. She pointed at me and yelled, "What nonsense are you spouting? Who are you, you crazy woman? I don't even know you!"Honey, don't listen to her nonsense. She's just a scammer trying to climb to higher ranks. She sees you're handsome and a captain, so she's trying to cause a scene and extort you! Don't fall for it!"As she spoke, she hugged Klaus' arm even tighter and looked at him with a tearful gaze."Honey, tell her quickly that I'm your wife! Stand up for me and our son! We can't let some shady woman slander our reputation here!"The surrounding passengers looked at me, then at Klaus and Raine. For a moment, th

After hanging up the phone, a brief silence followed. Raine was the first to burst into sharp, piercing laughter.She pointed at me while laughing and said to the nearby passengers, "Did you all hear that? She said a hacker compromised the system, and that she wants the company's top-level executive to come!"Oh, my God! Where did this drama queen come from? To keep a seat, she even made up such a lie. This really rattles my world view!"The surrounding passengers also joined in the mocking laughter. Their eyes were filled with scorn and disdain toward me."I think she's watched too many movies and actually thinks she's some heroine who saved the world.""Hurry up and take her away! Don't let her throw a fit here anymore. I'm seriously in a hurry!"Lawrence's expression darkened even further, becoming extremely stormy. "Air marshals, stop wasting words with her. Take direct compulsory measures and remove this woman who's seriously endangering flight safety from the plane!"He tu
