Ashlyn recalled her duty as a wife and forced out a smile. “Sure. Don’t worry about me.”
“Spencer will take the flight with you,” Lucas told her lightly.
“Okay.” Ashlyn nodded.
Deep down, she was extremely reluctant because she was really busy. There was no need for him to act as if they were in love right before their divorce!
However, to get an amicable divorce, she had to stay calm and bear with his actions for a couple more days.
Both of them stayed silent after that. Ashlyn whipped out her phone and sent a few texts to Jared Quickton on WhatsApp.
She told Jared she was boarding the plane later and would be back in the country by tomorrow night. Jared would have to take care of everything himself for now.
Jared: I thought you’re getting a divorce? Why are you going to London with him?
Ashlyn: I have no choice. I don’t want to cause any conflict and fall out with him. You know how much I hate conflicts.
Jared: Yeah, got it :(
Ashlyn turned off her phone without sending a reply, utterly irritated.
The car reached South Star Airlines half an hour later.
Spencer remained with Ashlyn as she waved to Lucas. “Bye, honey!”
Lucas nodded and left.
In the conference room at South Star Airlines, Lucas sat at the head of the table after going through the pre-flight physical inspection.
He flipped through the weather report, which his co-pilot had handed him earlier.
The purser started going through the pre-flight briefing with the other flight attendants.
