All Chapters of I Let My Wife’s Plane Crash Without Me: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Flight TK6587, you are cleared for takeoff."From the control tower, I calmly issued the clearance to my wife, Captain Olivia Carter.Her clear voice crackled through the radio, carrying a playful smile. "No 'fly safe' today?"Every time she took off, I always ended the transmission the same way. "Fly safe. Bring everyone home." Half a blessing. Half a prayer.This time, I forced down my disgust and hatred before replying evenly. "Fly safe."As an air traffic controller at Riverside International Airport, my job was simple.Guide every aircraft safely home. Protect every crew member and passenger.In my previous life, fifteen minutes after takeoff, Olivia radioed the tower with an emergency. The moment I heard the panic in her voice, every nerve in my body locked tight.I immediately began troubleshooting with her while monitoring weather conditions, surrounding traffic, and emergency routing.Working with the entire tower, I coordinated her return. Against all odds, Flight TK6587 mad

She thought that as long as there was no direct evidence against her, I would have no way to refute her accusations.So she didn’t even bother making her story believable.The officer immediately caught the inconsistency."If you encountered severe weather, couldn't you have delayed the flight or even canceled it?""Besides, your route from Riverside to Langford only had light rain turning into moderate rain. There were no extreme weather conditions."Faced with the officer's serious questioning, Olivia became even more flustered."Don't blame the weather for what happened!""Mechanical failures happen. Bad conditions happen.""But what shouldn't happen is an air traffic controller giving a pilot the wrong instructions during an emergency!""Because of Ethan, we were seconds away from disaster!""I had to risk my own life and the lives of everyone on board because he failed to do his job!"In my previous life, Olivia refused to follow my instructions.She was too afraid of dying, yet to

Her legs shook uncontrollably as she struggled to stay standing."There's been a misunderstanding."She tried to explain.But the words died in her throat.After everything she'd just sworn to, there was no lie big enough to save her now.Before Chairman Mitchell could even speak, one of the airline executives stepped forward."You ignored instructions from air traffic control because you thought you knew better.""Then, after nearly causing a catastrophe, you lied without hesitation and tried to pin the blame on someone else.""With judgment like yours, and integrity like yours, we will never trust you with another aircraft or another passenger."Olivia stared at him in horror.The executive's voice rang across the tarmac."Olivia Carter, you're fired.""Your pilot certificates will be revoked, and you will never fly for a commercial airline again."Logan folded his arms and looked at her coldly."The company has dealt with your misconduct.""Now it's our turn.""You and Ryan delibera

Back when we were studying aviation at college, the school often warned students about strangers and drunk troublemakers hanging around campus late at night.One night, I rushed to a nearby hospital with a severe stomach infection.By the time I finished treatment and made it back to campus, it was already after midnight.The campus was almost empty, with only a few lights still glowing around the dorm buildings.That's when I noticed a man following a female student walking alone."Hey!" I shouted. "Leave her alone."The man was clearly drunk.He turned around and cursed before rushing toward me."Mind your own damn business!"The next thing I knew, his fist hit my face.I was sick, exhausted, and completely alone.Then Olivia appeared.She didn't hesitate for even a second.She stepped in front of me and used the self-defense skills she'd learned to hold him back until help arrived.Lying there on the ground, I could only stare at her.I'd never met anyone like her before.Beautiful

Before I could answer, he blurted it out."Ryan!""I thought the airline grounded him until his contract expired next year.""My dad even told me they had no intention of renewing it.""So explain this.”"How the hell was he walking around the terminal in uniform today?""He was heading out on a flight to Redwood City like nothing had ever happened."The more Logan talked, the angrier he became."I already checked.""Ryan doesn't come from money.""So who pulled strings for him?""You think he found himself some rich sugar mama or someone powerful enough to get him back in the cockpit?"I narrowed my eyes and smiled."Maybe he's making a comeback.”"Or maybe.”"He's just digging his own grave."Three days before Olivia was due to leave the hospital, Lily Ross suddenly showed up in front of me with a rose between her teeth.Then she confessed her feelings.She had obviously spent hours getting ready.Her hair was pinned up to highlight her neckline.She wore a plunging top beneath a ski
