The Consortium's Heir novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207

The flight attendant's cheeks took on a bright pink hue. Even her voice sounded much gentler.

"Dearest passenger, we're about to take off, so that man shouldn't be standing up now as it will affect the take-off procedures. That's why I lectured him. My actions also make the overall flight smoother for passengers like you."

Her intentionally honeyed tone sounded like nails scratching against a chalkboard in Darius’ ears. He was not impressed and could discern the woman's nature, as well as what she was thinking of at the moment.

"I don't care what your thought processes is,” Darius said, "But I hope that you won't cause me any more displeasure in the journey ahead."

The flight attendant's face turned pale, unable to accept what Darius said. It was shocking to her that Darius, a gentleman from top to bottom, could utter such harsh words. She stood rooted to her spot for the longest time before the in-flight announcement stated they would be taking off soon.

Nonetheless, she ignored it.

Her pointed gaze snapped toward Darius as she gritted her teeth, hatred gushing from her every pore. She seethed,

"Don't you know who I am? How dare you speak that way to me? Do you seriously think I'm just an ordinary flight attendant?”

Darius reached up to massage his temples and responded, “Firstly, you're too loud. Secondly, your uniform tells me you're exactly that-an ordinary flight attendant. Thirdly, get seated because the announcement says we're taking off shortly. You shouldn't stand now."

The flight attendant completely ignored Darius. All her attention was on the second argument Darius raised, and she growled,

“Let me make this clear. I'm no ordinary flight attendant! My dad owns this airline company!”

"Is that so?” Darius raised a brow. "I got into an argument with your mother, Elizabeth, earlier when waiting to board."

He then leaned back into his seat, shaking his head while scoffing at the flight attendant. "Now, Elizabeth's daughter has jumped out of nowhere and has inappropriate thoughts about me, even after I've clearly rejected her advances."

The flight attendant’s eyes grew wide. Likewise, her voice sharpened like a blade, piercing the air. "Enough! That woman isn't my mother! She has no right to be anyone's mother! She's merely my dad's lover!"

Unperturbed by the situation, Darius asked, "Aren’t you going to return to your seat so that this flight can take off?”

Silence filled the entire cabin as all passengers looked at the flight attendant.

The passengers would not have kept quiet if it were any other flight attendant delaying things. They would have yelled and reported her for causing trouble. However, this specific flight attendant claimed to be the daughter of the airline's owner. That meant she was the future owner of the airline-someone they could not afford to cross.
