The moment those words were spoken, Raylan’s expression shifted dramatically.
He snapped, “Have you lost your mind? Do you realize what could happen if you abandon your duty without permission? If anything serious gets delayed because of you, don’t expect me to help you out!”
I kept quiet and fixed my eyes on Leila, who was massaging his shoulders.
When Raylan noticed where I was looking, he cleared his throat awkwardly.
“Leila, head over to the first–class cabin and get some rest. If anyone from the crew gives you trouble, let me know–I’ll take care of it.”
Hearing this, Leila stood up and left unsteadily.
Meanwhile, the plane smoothly got onto its assigned route, and Raylan increased the speed.
I checked the numbers on the dashboard, feeling my hands start to sweat from anxiety.
We had already wasted too much time, and even by speeding up now, I knew we’d still end up behind schedule.
While I silently prayed that everything on the ground was set, a sudden loud sound came from the cabin outside.
My brows furrowed as a wave of worry washed over me.

“I’m going to see what’s going on.
”
When I entered the first–class cabin, I found Leila lounging in her seat with her legs propped up.
There were several shattered glasses around her feet, and spilled drinks covered the floor.
“Leila, it’s bad enough you’re slacking off in first class, but what makes you think we’re supposed to serve you on our knees?”
“Remember, you’re part of the cabin crew. Your supervisor is the lead flight attendant. When we land and someone demands an explanation, not even the captain–or the state governor–will be able to protect you!”

Since the cart’s wheels weren’t locked, it rolled quickly backward, shot into economy class, and cabin.

But Leila stayed perfectly calm.
“Now, I’m sitting here as a first–class VIP, so you have to follow my orders -unless you want me to file a complaint. Believe it or not, I will.”
When I noticed tears welling up in the flight attendant’s eyes, I stepped forward to intervene.
“That’s enough. Raylan told you to take a break here, not stir up problems.”
She locked eyes with me, then dropped her innocent act and sneered.
“You’re just a tramp who slept her way to the top. Do you really think you have the right to boss me around?”

The whole incident became a hot topic across the airline, and many even whispered that I was the one who set him up.
In the end, the old director cracked down on the gossip and banned everyone from talking about it.
My expression hardened as I grabbed her by the collar.
“Leila, I thought you were just drunk and babbling nonsense, so I let it go. But this flight is about people’s safety. If anything goes wrong, it won’t just be you. Even Raylan will face the consequences!”

When I saw a flicker of panic in her eyes, I let go and turned to head back to the cockpit.
But before I could get far, Leila rushed after me and shoved me forcefully from behind.
Caught off guard, I stumbled and crashed onto the floor. My knees and elbows got scraped by shards of glass.
The stinging pain made me gasp for air, and when I lifted my head, I noticed Leila standing there with her arms crossed.
“Jordyn Hembree, did you just threaten me?”
