Elaine had a shrewish personality, but the essence of her shrew personality came from her being strong.
She had lived for fifty years and had been looked down upon for most of that time, especially so after she had married into the Wilson family.
The contempt from her husband’s family and the cowardice of her own husband had caused people to trample all over her self-esteem which not only made her have an even more shrewish personality but also aggravated the ultimate pursuit of her reputation.
Now, she was finally taking a private jet, so she naturally wanted to enjoy and have a memento from such a high-end feeling. Most importantly, she wanted to show off to her circle of friends.
The crew members were naturally very cooperative. After all, they were flying such a flight, and the income from serving Elaine alone was several times compared to that of serving a few hundred people on a whole civil airliner. So, they naturally had to serve and give Elaine whatever she wanted.
After filming the video contentedly, Elaine specially created another group where she blocked Charlie, Claire, and Jacob, in order not to expose herself in front of her family. After that, she posted the video to her circle of friends with the caption ‘The feeling of taking a private jet to travel is different. It feels like there is a noble emperor-like atmosphere everywhere!'.
After posting the video on her social media, she subconsciously asked the chief flight attendant, "Hey, will there be no internet after we take off later?"
The chief flight attendant hurriedly said," There will be no internet during the critical take-off and climbing phase. However, I will turn on the cabin WiFi for you after the plane is stable. You will be able to connect to the internet at that time."
Elaine nodded in satisfaction and smiled as she said, "Okay, then. Tell your captain to hurry up and take off."
As she said that, she thought to herself,' I've already sent the video out to my circle of friends, and I will be able to connect to the internet after I'm in the air. I believe that many people will like my video! Wouldn't they be extremely envious of me, then!?'
As Elaine thought of this, she put her cell phone aside, and she was in a wonderful mood as she looked at the scenery outside the window.
The plane quickly took off and soared right into the sky.
About half an hour later, the plane rose to a cruising altitude of 11,000 meters. The chief flight attendant then turned on the cabin WiFi and said to Elaine, "Madam Elaine, our WiFi has been turned on. You can connect to the internet now. The WiFi name is your name, and there is no password.”
Elaine took out her cell phone immediately, connected to the WiFi, and she could not wait to open her Facebook account. She wanted to see how many notifications there would be from her circle of friends.
However, she found that she did not even have a single notification from her circle of friends after she opened it!
This also meant that no one had liked or commented on her video even though it had been so long since she had posted it to her circle of friends.
She could not help but think to herself,' There must be a problem with the internet, right? It cannot be possible that no one has liked or sent me any comments after it has been more than half an hour!'
As she thought of this, she could not help but ask the chief flight attendant, "Is there something wrong with your internet? I'm connected to it, but it does not seem like I'm actually connected to the internet.”
The chief flight attendant hurriedly said, "It cannot be, Madam Elaine. We are using the satellite network. Although the internet speed is a little slower, the signal is very good, and the connection is very stable.
Elaine was about to speak up when a red notification circle suddenly popped up on her Facebook account. There was a number 1 in the red notification circle.
She wanted to quickly click on it, but as a result, it immediately turned into the number 2.
Elaine was instantly overjoyed, and she thought to herself, 'Someone in my circle of friends has finally commented on my video!’
So, she quickly clicked into it, and as soon as she looked it at, she was annoyed.
The two notifications were from Hannah.
One was the notification for Hannah liking her video, and the other was Hannah’s comment which read "Have a smooth trip, Elaine!".
Elaine suddenly felt extremely depressed.
The fact that she could receive Hannah's like and comments meant that there was definitely no problem with the internet on the plane. This also proved that no one else in her circle of friends had commented on her video even after the plane had taken off for so long.
This made Elaine feel very indignant, and she could not help but curse to herself, 'D* mn it! There are usually so many people who like the lousy pictures that I take of flowers in the park with my shaky hands. Why aren’t people liking the video of me when I'm flying on a private jet today?! D* mn it! It must be because they are jealous! It's definitely because they are jealous!'
