Jayden was immersed in his own thoughts and kept moving forward. When he came to his senses, the person beside him had already disappeared. He looked around but he couldn't find Silvia.
Jayden thought about how stupid and gullible Silvia was. Her passport was with him, and she didn't have any money with her. Did she think she could escape?
Jayden picked up his mobile phone and called Silvia. He realized that her mobile phone was also in his bag.
"This silly woman, she'd better run far away. If I caught her, I would skin her alive."
Silvia had been holding her urine in for nearly an hour. She felt so happy when being able to use the washroom.
She was suffering, and now she felt relieved.
Silvia zipped up her pants and was about to open the toilet door when she heard a familiar voice talking on the phone. "I have so many doubts about that man. I gave him a card with my number on it, but he asked me to apologize to his wife. It's my first time giving out my card. How could I be so unlucky to meet such a scumbag?"
This familiar voice was no longer gentle and sweet but sounded a little harsh. "I saw that he was good-looking and seemed kind and sweet. I just gave him a card, but he asked my superiors to fire me because his wife was unhappy. A man who was afraid of his wife, despite having good looks, what else could he achieve in life? B*stard! Scum! I curse that he would suffer from erectile dysfunction, and that he can't sleep with any woman in his life."
It was the flight attendant, Audrey. The person at the other end of the phone was probably comforting her. Silvia then heard Audrey say, "Well, well, you are right. Maybe the man was indeed sexually dysfunctional. Or maybe he doesn't like women at all. The woman beside him is just a cover-up, that's why he obeyed her."
It was probably Audrey's first time encountering such a situation. She was so angry that Silvia could feel her anger through the toilet door.
Silvia sighed. Audrey was a staff member in the service industry who had been professionally trained. How could she talk this way when she was still in the airport? It would mean big trouble if she received another complaint.
Silvia had never done much good in her life, but this time, she wanted to be a good person and help Audrey.
She opened the door and came out. When Audrey saw her at a glance, she appeared to be at a loss. "You, what are you doing here? Are you eavesdropping on me?"
Silvia responded calmly, "Miss Audrey, this is a public space. You were talking so loudly on the phone. Do I need to eavesdrop on you? You were simply allowing me to listen to your conversation."
Overwhelmed by anger, Audrey stammered, "You... You..."
Silvia continued to speak while washing her hands, "You should act smarter when you're talking bad about someone. If the person you're talking bad about was in the toilet, aren't you going to get a complaint again?"
Although Silvia was the main reason Audrey was dismissed from her post, Audrey thought that what she said was quite reasonable.
Audrey had been so angry that she didn’t pay attention to her surroundings. Hence, she had bumped into the culprit who had caused her trouble!
If this petty woman complained about Audrey again, she would most definitely never be able to work in the industry again.
Silvia felt happy deep down as she heard how others spoke badly about Jayden. When she was happy, she couldn't hide her smile, which made Audrey angrier. "What are you laughing at? Do you think it's fun making a fool of me?"
