Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 173

Chapter 0173 

Watching Madison’s pursed-lip smile, Charlie exhaled a long sigh. 

“Hey, she…” Yu Lulei leaned in toward Charlie, “Is she really in a relationship with your boss?” 

Charlie, one to stay out of other people’s business, replied, “I’m not sure myself.” 

“Humph,” Yu Lulei pouted. “We’re friends, aren’t we? Do you have to be so insincere?” 

“I truly don’t know.” 

“What don’t you know?” Madison put down her phone. 

Kou Mei relayed, “Yu Lulei was asking Captain Charlie whether you’re really dating the Chairman of Mukino International, and Captain 

Charlie said she wasn’t sure.” 

Madison took a sip of her pearl soup and slowly nodded, “Yes.” 

Yu Lulei’s eyes gradually widened, her breath momentarily seizing, ” Really?! It’s not just for show?!” 

She had always believed that the reports were just a publicity stunt to spread Mukino International’s fame. 

“But aren’t you under pressure, dating your own boss? Doesn’t he push you to work hard?” Yu Lulei was genuinely puzzled. 

Madison thought for a second, “Not at all. He never rushes me, sometimes he doesn’t even want me to go to work.” 

Charlie couldn’t resist gossiping, “So he supports you financially?” 

Madison recalled Ethan saying something similar, “Seems like it.” 

Kou Mei slammed the table, “You didn’t agree?!” 

“No, I didn’t…” 

Feeling the grievous stares of the three women, Madison was utterly confused. 

Yu Lulei, the outspoken one, exclaimed, “You… You… You really don’t know how to treasure a gem! He’s willing to support you financially, why don’t you hold on to him? Do you actually enjoy the hardship?” 

Madison replied, “I don’t want to stay at home all day, and besides, flying is my passion.” 

Having once given up her dreams for family and suffered the consequences, she was not about to make that mistake again. 

“You want to fly, you could ask him to get you a plane. Apply for a route, and fly around the world for fun. Why go through the trouble of working so hard?” suggested Yu Lulei. 

Madison was perplexed and turned to Charlie, “Do you feel the same, way?” 

Charlie, upon being questioned, pondered for a while and answered seriously, “As long as you’re happy. But I support you having your career. No person, man or woman, should lose their individual worth; otherwise, they’ll eventually be the one abandoned.” 

Yu Lulei mumbled, “I’d rather freeload if not for my parents bein pilots and wanting to make them proud. Otherwise, I would’ve rotting at home.” 

Kou Mei laughed at her, “Your mom would kill you.” 

“Eat your food, no talking!” Yu Lulei huffed. 

“Right.”

Charlie remembered the next day’s assessment, “The three of us are in the same group as Shihua. Considering the vile thing she did today, do you think she’ll cause trouble tomorrow?” 

Even Kou Mei, from the national airline, felt sick thinking about it, “I didn’t expect her to play so dirty.” 

Madison put down her spoon, her eyes glinting coldly, “If she’s still participating in the ranking at this critical moment, it’s either because. she wants to continue in the industry or… she has ulterior motives.” 

Given their past conflicts, Madison couldn’t help but suspect Shihua was plotting something. I 

Elsewhere, Shihua, upon learning that the assessment had been delayed, clenched her teeth in secret 

“What are you thinking about, Captain Shihua?” 

“Hm?” Shihua snapped back, gripping her phone, “Just the assessment.” 

“You’re so capable, there won’t be any problems with the assessment. You’re sure to be the first S-tier pilot in domestic aviation,” flattered some of her international airline colleagues. 

Hua Mei was the only female pilot at Envoy Air, while the other fen pilots who made snide comments that day were from other m 

airlines. 

Those minor airlines, overshadowed by the growing Mukino International, had started to unofficially band together for mutual support against the potential oppression of larger companies. 

Little did they know, Mukino International and the national airline didn’t consider them at all.

Shihua laughed it off, “Do you know why the assessment was postponed out of the blue?” 

The other pilots quickly gathered around her, whispering while. glancing around, “I overheard some gossip, not sure if it’s true or not. They say a Mukino Air pilot had some trouble, and then somehow managed to get the international assessment committee to agree to delay the ranking.” 

Shihua’s hand under the table clenched her thigh in a vice grip. 

Jealousy and hatred burned within her. 

All because of Madison, the assessment had been delayed? 

What made her so special! 

Soon, pilots from various companies gathered around to chat and 

gossip. 

“Captain Shihua, why did you leave Mukino Air for Envoy?” 

Some people from other companies knew of Shihua and were simply 

curious. 

But to the sensitive Shihua, it felt like blatant schadenfreude. 

Struggling to maintain her composure, Shihua replied, “I have 

connections with the Chairman of Mukino International. As soon as 

returned to the country, I flew international routes and even l flight squadron. But people had their grievances. So I left. matter where I am, I’m a pilot.” 

Her words made it seem as though she was forced out due to from other Mukino International pilots. 

“Really? I have a friend who used to work at Mukino Air, and they said. the pilots there were quite amiable.”

Shihua glanced at the speaker, “Men and women are different, aren’t they?” 

Understanding dawned on everyone. 

So it was the female pilots who were jealous of Shihua and conspired 

to drive her away?
