EuropeNovelChapter 492 That night, Celeste went to the airport together with the rest of the family, preparing to return to Baumond. They were seated in business class. Jordyn, with Hector and his family, sat by the window on the right -hand side. Celeste and Betty were seated in the middle section on the left-hand side. With Hector and the others looking after Jordyn, Celeste went over to help adjust Betty's seat. She was speaking with Betty when Lilian, Patricia, and the others cwalking toward them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen the Shaw family members saw Celeste and her group, they didn't look surprised On the contrary, smiles appeared on their faces-it was obvious they had already known the Rodriguez family had returned to Youtopia and that they were on this very flight back to Baumond Linda looked at Celeste with a provocative smile and deliberately said, "Grandma, Aunt Lizzy, speople went running to the hospital every day when Mrs. Fleming Senior was sick, trying to curry favor, thinking that clinging to Martha and trying to please Trev would keep him from divorcing. ---- "But as soon as Mrs.
Fleming Senior recovered, before Wynn even had to say a word, Trev immediately went and set up an appointment with someone to get the divorce paperwork done. + "Before, when a certain someone dragged her feet and refused to finalize it, I was worried. But Wynn said she trusted Trev to handle it-and sure enough, she was right." The Shaw family, of course, knew she was saying this on purpose for the Rodriguez family to hear. 1 Patricia chuckled, lightly patted Linda's hand, and cast a mocking glance at Celeste and Betty.
Lilian's expression remained cool-she didn't seem at all surprised that Trevor had seized the first opportunity to push the divorce through. She didn't even look at the Rodriguez family, simply gliding past them and seating herself elegantly. Ivan and Betty naturally knew Linda's words had been aimed at them Seeing Celeste targeted that way, Betty's already dark expression grew even darker. Ivan, who had been arranging the luggage, also let his face harden. Deliberately drawing things out so her words would sink in, Linda ---- walked very slowly. The passengers behind them grew impatient.
Someone urged, "What are you standing around chatting for? Move along already!" The Shaw family had been feeling smug recently. Linda, displeased at being rushed, turned back, ready to snap- when Celeste, hidden by the cover of a nearby luggage bin, stretched out her foot. 2 Linda stumbled, falling forward straight onto Patricia. Both of them tumbled to the ground together. Lilian had just sat down. Seeing this, her expression changed instantly-she jumped up to help. "Mom, are you alright?" Linda scrambled up from the floor, face dark with fury, and glared sharply at Celeste. "It was you! You did that on purpose!" Celeste looked at her coldly. "I don't know what you're talking about." "You-!" Linda wanted to retort, but the passenger who had complained earlier spoke up again, this tin Celeste's defense. "You were the ones too busy gossiping to watch where you were going-don't go blaming others!" ---- Even though the floor was carpeted, Linda had knocked her mouth against an armrest. Blood was trickling from her teeth. Furious, she wanted to argue further, but the impatient passenger barked, "If you don't want to fly, then get off the plane.
Stop blocking everyone else!" Other passengers chimed in, annoyed. "Exactly!" "You..." Linda trembled with indignation, but with more and more people staring, Lilian cut in "Linda, sit down." Seething. Linda didn't dare disobey. Before she sat, she shot Celeste a venomous glare. "Just you wait." Celeste ignored her, calmly finishing adjusting Betty's seat before sitting down herself. Patricia had struck her forehead, leaving her looking rather disheveled. Seeing her mother's injury, and her once-elegant, expensive clothes now in such a sorry state, Lilian's expression grew even darker.
Although she hadn't witnessed what had happened, she knew full well it must have been Celeste. After having a stewardess tend to Patricia's wound, she returned to her seat. On her way back, she shot Celeste a cold, cutting look. Noticing the gaze, Celeste met it evenly with one just as frosty. Lilian knew that if she really confronted Celeste here, the matter would only escalate-and if it was caught on camera and spread online, their side might end up worse off. With that thought, she simply cast Celeste a final cold glance and returned to her seat in silence.
