Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 241

With every second crucial in rescuing the victims, the urgency from the Civil Aviation Authority was palpable: "Can’t two people be dispatched?"

In Yuanchuan, winter rain was falling, drenching the already damp and cold tents, and everyone shivered slightly, let alone the disaster victims out there.

At this critical juncture, Charlie volunteered, "I'll go."

Surprised glances turned her way.

Charlie was somewhat drenched, her short hair drab from the rain, yet she was far from complaining. "Brian, continue leading the team back and forth. And... Henry?"

Henry, called upon, did not hesitate to answer, "Sure!"

One man and two women.

Brian stood up, "Don't worry, I'll lead the team. Nothing will go wrong."

His words were aimed at Madison.

After all, as the overall flight captain, if any issues arose during the mission, the Civil Aviation Authority would likely hold Madison accountable first.

Madison nodded, and along with Charlie and Henry, followed the authority's rep out of the tent.

After a ride to who knows where, they arrived to see three retired fighter jets parked outside.

These jets were supposed to be used by the training base, and to everyone's surprise, they had been brought out for the mission.

"Are we flying fighter jets?" The excitement in Henry's eyes was tinged with trepidation.

Which man wouldn’t love the idea of piloting a fighter jet? Even if they were retired.

But Henry had never actually handled a fighter jet before. He knew how to fly one in theory, but it was very different from training, and this was not the time for jokes.

"I can't handle this."

Henry quickly backed off, coming to Charlie's side to whisper, "Can you fly a fighter jet?"

Charlie didn't shake her head but said, "I've touched and flown them, but never this seriously or formally."

She, too, was nervous.

The difference between flying a commercial plane and a fighter jet was significant – you had to have the nerve for it.

After the Civil Aviation Authority rep finished his call, he summoned them, "Which one of you has flown a fighter jet?"

Madison glanced at the silent pair beside her and had to speak up, "I have."

The rep seemed unsurprised by her claim and gestured, "Come on, you take the lead. Follow the flight squadron."

With no other option, Charlie and Henry braced themselves to board.

"Well, flying is flying, right? I'm in," Henry resolved.

Madison hadn't been this close to a fighter jet in a long time. Even though these were retired, they were well-maintained and did not appear outdated.

"There will be someone to guide you in the air. Just follow them, got it?" the rep reminded them.

They nodded.

Sure enough, someone in a flight suit arrived, evidently a fighter pilot, discussing matters with the Civil Aviation Authority rep.

After the talk, the pilot walked back to a large group of fighter jets that had just landed.

There were also women among them, not just a few, but three.
