“No, no,” Victoria repeated,
“There’s really no need, Mr. Hudson,” she continued,
“Please, Miss Selwyn. I’m strong enough to push you along while pulling the other
suitcases,” Ethan insisted.
“If you must push someone…” Victoria said, “Nicole, get on the suitcase and let Mr.
Hudson push you around.”
“Okay, Mommy,” Nicole responded,
She was a smart kid. Soon after Victoria’s suggestion, she climbed onto the
suitcase. However, she had a somewhat difficult time with the climb. She held a tiny
hand out to Ethan and sweetly called out, “Mr. Hudson, help me.”
Ethan subconsciously grabbed her arm and helped her up to sit on the suitcase.
Ethan only realized what had happened after Nicole was properly seated.
“Wall, Miss Selwyn, what I mean is…”

“Nicole is tired. I leave her in your hands, Mr. Hudson. Nathan, grab your suitcase.
Pull it yourself,” Victoria interrupted.
“Okay,” Nathan said.
The two children were especially obedient. They basically did anything that Victoria
told them to.
Eventually, Ethan had no choice but to push Nicole along on the suitcase.
“Thank you, Mr. Hudson,” Nicole apologetically repeated to Ethan. She was so cute
that the only reply Ethan could muster was, “Good girl. Hold on tight. We don’t want
you falling.”
They had booked first–class tickets.
Ethan had planned on leading Victoria to the lounge to rest for a while, but they had
spent so much time dilly–dallying that boarding had started by the time they arrived
at their gate.
Thus, they had to board the plane first.
Victoria was eager to finally sit down. The plane should be warmer than the airport,

and she could even ask the air hostess for a blanket later.
“We can board the plane now, Mr. Cadogan,” Terrance remarked from beside Alaric.
Alaric nodded with a blank face.
“Oh, right. Mr. Cadogan, I have more news,” Terrance said,
Alaric turned to look at him in confusion.
“We have to line up later,” Terrance continued.
“What do you mean by that?” Alaric froze in his tracks.
“Well, when I bought the tickets last night, there were no first–class seats available.”
With Alaric’s intense gaze trained on him, Terrance forced himself to continue his
explanation. “They were out of business–class seats. In the end, I had to book
economy–class tickets.”
Everything seemed to come to a standstill once he was done speaking.
Terrance looked at Alaric with a conflicted look in his eyes.

“Mr. Cadogan, we were unlucky when we booked our tickets. These seats would
rarely be sold out. I don’t know what’s going on with today’s flight. Don’t worry,
though. I’ll ask around later to see if anyone in the first class is willing to swap seats
with you. I’ll ensure you can get through your flight in comfort. For now, we’ll have to
line up.”

Terrance led Alaric over to the queue as Alaric continued to stare at him with sharp
eyes.
Alaric was a tall and handsome man whose beauty was not hard on the eyes and
constantly radiated an air of elegance. Thus, as he waited in line, many girls stared
at him.
The flight they were taking had a lot of foreign passengers.
These passengers were bolder and more friendly than the others. Their gazes
burned as they looked at him up and down. They even began whispering to each
other about him. Some of them would wink or shoot flirtatious looks at him as they
passed by.
Alaric did not respond in any way at all to the reactions he garnered.
Terrance sneakily glanced at Alaric. When he saw how dark the look on Alaric’s face.

was, he swiftly looked away.
He, too, did not want to line up if it was at all possible.
Once they were past the gates, Alaric grimly marched ahead while Terrance raced to
keep up.
“I’m so very sorry, Mr. Cadogan. It’s my fault. I had not expected the flight to be
booked out,” he said.
Alaric abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned to shoot Terrance with a sharp look.
“Terrance Levane, if this ever happens again, you’ll be terminated immediately,” he
snapped out.
“Yes, sir. It won’t happen again, sir. I promise, sir. This was unexpected,” Terrance
hurriedly replied.
Once on the plane, Alaric headed to the first–class seating area as usual.
“Welcome onboard,” the air hostesses greeted.
The eyes of every air hostess they walked past lit up with delight when he walked
past them.

“Sir, your ticket…”
The moment the air hostess spoke up, Terrance promptly handed over their tickets.
from behind Alaric.
The air hostess took one glance at their tickets and stopped Alaric from moving
toward the first–class seating area. “Excuse me, sir, but your seats are this way.”
Alaric paused.
The air hostess continued to smile as she gestured toward the economy–class
seating area. “This way,
sir.”
The people who were boarding were now looking at them.
Their eyes betrayed their curiosity and judgmental thoughts as they stared at Alaric.
Terrance was at a loss for words.
He was doomed.
He would be yelled at again.
“Sir?” the air hostess asked once more when Alaric did not move.

Next thing she knew, he snatched his ticket from her and coldly marched to the
economy class seating area. As he passed by Terrance, he barked out, “Do not let
me see you again once we’re back.”
Terrance was bawling on the inside. He quickly said to the air hostess, “Excuse me,
but we have a friend up ahead in the first class. Since the plane isn’t leaving just yet,
can I head over for a minute?”
The air hostess paused in astonishment before nodding.
In the first–class seating area.
Victoria’s group had bought their tickets early on. Thus, they were mostly seated
together.
As Victoria was not feeling well, they decided to give her the seat by the window.
Once they boarded the plane, her cramps increased in intensity. Ethan helped her
ask for a thick blanket from the air hostess. Then, she curled up in her seat and fell
asleep.
Not long after she closed her eyes, she heard Nathan softly call out to her.
“Mommy.”

No matter how much pain she was in, she still swiftly opened her eyes in response
to her child’s call.
“What is it, Nathan?”
“This is for you,” he replied.
He was holding out an eye mask to her.
She paused upon seeing it and chuckled.
“Thank you, Nathan. Could you help me put it on?” she asked.
“Okay.”

Nathan leaned over to slide the eye mask over her eyes. His motions were as gentle
as could be, just like the caring boy he was.
“All done, Mommy.”
“Thank you, Nathan. Well, I’m going to sleep now. Can you help me take care of ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Nathan instantly nodded.

Dont worry, Miss Selwyn. I take care of them. You focus on resting.
The last sentence was spoken by Ethan who had abruptly chimed in

Indeed, Victoria did not need to wONTY,
She soon fell into a deep sleep.
Due to how cold it was, she pulled her blanket up high, covering her entire neck and
jaw. The only part of her that was visible was her nose which was left unobscured
for breathing.
Just then, Terrance arrived at the first–class seating area.
