Chapter 399: Chapter 399
Julian Lancaster heard this and showed a look of confusion.
Wasn’t Nina Sinclair supposed to be at work today? Why would she appear here and board the plane to Crestfall?
He took out his phone and sent a message to Marcus Walsh, asking about Nina Sinclair’s situation.
In less than five minutes, Marcus’s message came back.
He said he went to ask at Elysian, and Nina Sinclair had taken a three-day leave.
Julian Lancaster put away his phone with a bit of helplessness. Although he didn’t know why Nina Sinclair suddenly wanted to go to Crestfall, the worse situation now was that he must not let her know his whereabouts, and most importantly, she must not see him with Sharon Lancaster, otherwise, everything would be hard to explain.
Only now did Julian Lancaster realize what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.
A lie requires countless lies to cover.
Nina Sinclair sat down in her seat.
At this time, a flight attendant walked up to Nina Sinclair with an apologetic expression and said, "Ms. Sinclair, we are very sorry, but because our flight tickets for this trip were oversold, the passenger for your seat has already boarded. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Upon hearing this, Nina Sinclair furrowed her brows tightly.
To maximize returns for each flight without wasting seats, airlines sometimes oversell tickets.
In such cases, passengers may be persuaded by flight attendants to leave the flight and delay their travel.
Nina Sinclair was that lucky one.
If bad luck hits and there are no tickets for subsequent flights, nor is a transfer possible, one could only accept the refund with frustration.
Not only does this waste one’s time, but it also negatively affects one’s mood.
Crestfall is a cosmopolitan city with tightly booked flight seats, and Nina Sinclair had to book a week in advance to secure a seat.
If she canceled now, there surely would be no more tickets available.
Nina Sinclair lightly furrowed her brow and asked, "How do you intend to resolve this?"
The flight attendant, with a smile, continued, "A passenger in business class has canceled their trip, so we can now upgrade you for free, providing you with a better seat or flight, along with appropriate financial compensation. Would this be acceptable?"
Upon hearing this, Nina Sinclair finally felt a sense of relief. As long as she could go to Crestfall as planned, any solution would be acceptable to her.
Moreover, upgrading from economy to business class meant better service and seats, which no sensible person would refuse.
So, she nodded and said, "No problem."
"May I ask where your luggage is? I’ll help you with it."
After retrieving her suitcase, Nina Sinclair followed the flight attendant to the front business class.
At this moment, Sharon Lancaster, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, settled back in her seat.
She had been scared to death just now. Fortunately, she had perfectly avoided Nina Sinclair and hadn’t been discovered by her.
In the business class, there were four seats abreast, and their family had bought tickets for the front and rear seats. She and Julian Lancaster were sitting together, with the remaining two empty seats across the aisle.
At this moment, Sharon felt a sense of relief, thankful their seat classes were different; otherwise, it would have been a disaster.
Anyway, passengers remain seated during the flight and won’t be moving around, so it’s unlikely they’ll meet. When disembarking, it’s their family who will leave first, making it improbable to run into Nina Sinclair.
She also reminded Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster to be careful when deplaning later, ensuring they weren’t seen by Nina Sinclair.
However, she hadn’t been happy for even a few seconds when she saw the flight attendant bringing Nina Sinclair over!!
Sharon Lancaster was instantly dumbfounded!
What the hell! What’s going on here?? Why is the flight attendant bringing Nina Sinclair over?
