Chapter 1

"I'm sorry, but we don't have any seats left for you on the flight. Please get out." William Klein stood before me. He was my husband's colleague, Lester Sullivan, and the captain of the flight I was on.He addressed me indifferently without even sparing my daughter a look.My mom looked stunned. "There are seats! Your colleague said a few passengers gave up their seats for us."William retorted flatly, "That was before this. No one wants to give up their seats now. Please get off this flight."My mom anxiously pleaded, "Captain, that won't do. My granddaughter got into a car accident, and we needed to fly her out for surgery. We're in a great hurry. Please communicate with your passengers. Perhaps, some of them will give up their seats."At first, I thought William would agree to help after we explained our dilemma. To my dismay, he shot us a heartless frown. "The little girl looks perfectly fine, though. Every passenger here is in a hurry to reach the destination. Please do not

Chapter 2

In my past life, I lost my mind when I learned about Lily's severe condition. Upon learning that Lester was flying to the same city, I immediately called him up and asked for his help.It so happened that Lester had taken the day off to accompany his childhood sweetheart, Margot Brandenburg, to her prenatal checkup.Upon receiving my call, he immediately thought I was trying to scare him out of envy. It took me a lot of pathetic begging to earn his trust. He called the airlines to secure some seats and even flew the plane himself to reduce the flight duration by 40 minutes.Unfortunately, he received the tragic news about Margot's death by premature birth. She and her baby died at the hospital.On that day, Lester left me and Lily before he sent us to the hospital. I didn't see him again until two months later. By that time, Lily had recovered fully.Lester returned to his role of a loving husband and father. He came home from work on time every single day, not once attending any

I rushed down the plane and found Lily coughing up huge mouthfuls of blood as she rested on my mom's shoulder. Not only that, Lily convulsed uncontrollably.Losing my mind, I asked Mom to place Lily on a flat ground. I turned Lily's head to the side and reached into her mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue.Lily lost a lot of blood. Her blood spilled across the ground, staining my clothes and my mom’s.When William appeared from the plane, Mom rushed over to beg for his help. "Mr. Klein, please save Lily. You held her in your arms when she was little, and she used to call you 'Uncle William'. You can't possibly watch her die!"My mom's pleas and the messy scene finally swayed William. He was about to check on Lily when a call came in. He answered the call, "Hey, Lester. How's Margot doing?"My mom and I heard Lester's voice loud and clear because William accidentally put the call on speaker mode. Lester's voice filled the air. "We're at the hospital now. How are things on

William was dumbfounded upon hearing Colleen's words. He stood in a daze for a while before finally realizing just how grave Lily's condition was.In a frenzy, he entered the plane and cleared out three seats in less than a minute.As the flight attendants helped lift my daughter onto the plane, William put on a guilty look. "Florence, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have doubted you."I refused to accept his apology. Instead, I replied flatly, "William, haven't you always believed I had ruined Lester's life? If anything happens to my daughter, I will do everything in my power to ruin yours too."William's skills were top-notch; he shortened the 1.5-hour flight to just 50 minutes.When the plane landed, the medical personnel on the ground immediately took over and rushed Lily to the hospital.After checking on Lily, the doctors immediately wheeled her into the operating room.One of the doctors, who approached us for our signatures, sighed nonstop. "You brought her in too late. If you ha

Lily, however, was more optimistic than I expected. She remained smiling after learning she had to carry a colostomy bag for life. "That's pretty cool. It's just a little troublesome. At least I'm not dead!"I hugged my thoughtful daughter tightly and sobbed. When the airline learned about the incident, they sent representatives to offer gifts and apologies, hoping I would forgive Lester and William for their negligence.As a graduate of the aviation academy, I understood the effort that went into training a senior pilot. Yet, I chose not to forgive and demanded the airline take serious action against the pilots and deliver justice for Lily.William told me he was willing to accept any form of punishment, as he could not forgive himself at the thought of Lily facing lifelong discrimination because of his actions.In recent days, he had dropped by the hospital to repent. I knew William was a good man. If it were another passenger who begged him for help, he would have rendered ass

Chapter 6

After Lester and I got married, we enjoyed a rather blissful home life. Lily's arrival turned us into the picture-perfect family.Alas, the happiness was fleeting. Everything changed after Dad passed away and after Margot came back home. Ever since Margot returned to the country carrying a child, Lester turned into a full-time nanny taking care of her.He would cook for her and accompany her to prenatal checkups. He spent all his free time at her place to the point he wouldn't attend the sports day event at Lily's school.I wasn't in my best condition at that time because Dad passed away in a car accident abroad. Grieving the loss of my beloved father, I spent many days wallowing in sorrow.Every time Lester sought out Margot, I would fight with him. After being neglected by both parents and listening to us threatening each other, Lily assumed we were on the brink of a divorce. In an attempt to mediate, she couldn't think of any other idea except to buy gifts and then send the gi

Chapter 7

Margot would be stupid to admit to the accusations. She cried her eyes out. "No, that isn't the truth. I heard Kayla has lost her sanity. How could you trust her words?"Her tears were useless on Lester, who seemed to believe in Kayla more.Eyes burning in anger, he yelled at Margot, "Woah, Margot Brandenburg, I can't believe I treat you like my goddess. I fell in love with you because you bought me 100 lunches in high school, but you were just taking credit for the kindness of another girl."You told me you came back from abroad because of domestic abuse. I sacrificed everything to take care of you because I felt bad. Did you get knocked up when you slept around? That explains why you refused a C-section because you'd then have to be tested for STDs pre-surgery."If you say it's all a lie, how about you get an STD test to prove your innocence?"Margot finally caved in under his intense interrogation. "Yeah, I took credit for what Florence did for you. But you love me, not her. No

Chapter 8

Much to my surprise, Lily, who loved her dad deeply, removed her hand from Lester's grasp. She shook her head firmly. "No."Taken aback, Lester questioned, "What did you just say?""You can get a divorce with Mom. I don't need a dad like you. You were not with me when I was suffering."My decision to divorce had dealt a huge blow to Lester, but Lily's rejection was even worse.He froze on the spot, burdened by guilt and shame.I watched his expression change. He seemed to have realized his stupidity and cruelty.…After that eventful day, Lester dropped by to visit Lily every day. He wanted to be a good dad to her.Unfortunately, I developed a trauma response to his attempts at being a good father. When he made some food for Lily, I screamed and swept the food off the table. "The food is poisoned! Lily, don't eat it!"My abnormal reaction attracted his attention. He followed me out of Lily's room and cautiously prodded, "Darling, what's wrong with the food I made?"I shot h
