The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 998

“I told you just a moment ago that we wanted juice. So what is this that you've brought over? Tell me.”

Looking at the glass of juice in the young woman's hand, the air stewardess said with a smile, “Ms. Foster, you're holding a glass of juice right now.”

“Bullsh*t!”

Bailey Foster said angrily, “What is this? Juice made from a concentrate packet? Do you think I can't taste it? It has a preservative flavor. I asked for fresh-squeezed juice. Do you understand what fresh-squeezed means?”

Upon hearing Bailey's words, the air stewardess, Francine Lindell, responded with a troubled expression, “Ms. Foster, we only have concentrated juice on this plane. We don't have freshly squeezed juice.”

“Really, is there truly none?”

Bailey huffed. “Do you think I've never flown first class on your airline before? Let me tell you. My husband and I are Diamond Card members of your airline. We fly this route at least a dozen times a year. I know you always prepare the freshest juice for the flight captain, so why is it that we don't get any? You need to understand that we are Diamond Card members. Do you know what being a Diamond Card member represents?”

Bailey kept emphasizing that she was a Diamond Card holder, which made the air stewardess' face somewhat awkward.

As an air stewardess, she naturally understood what being a Diamond Card member meant.

Possibly alerted by the commotion in first class, the flight purser, Vanda Davenport, hurried over immediately.

She smiled at Bailey and said, “I'm sorry, Ms. Foster. How may I assist you?”

Upon seeing the purser arrive, she seemed to feel that Vanda's rank was more fitting to her status, and her attitude improved slightly.

“I don't need any special assistance from you. I just want a glass of fresh juice. My son is growing up, and you're giving him this concentrated juice. If anything bad happens, will you bear the responsibility? You are the purser of this plane, and all I want to ask you now is, how are you planning to resolve this issue for me?”

Vanda had already heard that Bailey was a Diamond Card member while she was outside.

She immediately said to Bailey, “Ms. Foster, we do indeed have fresh juice prepared for the pilot on the plane. This is to help the pilot maintain his energy. If you really need it, I can discuss it with the pilot and get a cup for you. Would that be okay?”

The only meaning behind Vanda's words was, “We do indeed have freshly squeezed juice, and I can certainly meet your request.”

However, this freshly squeezed juice was only available in limited quantities, so it was impossible for one to get a refill if one wanted one.

Bailey was no fool. Of course, she could understand what Vanda meant.

She didn't actually want to pick a fight with the air stewardess today. In fact, she just wanted to save her ego.

However, it was clear that Francine was new there and didn't know how to handle the situation.

That was why she was at a loss.

“All right. Our request isn't unreasonable. We're just asking for a glass of juice, that's all.”

“Okay, Ms. Foster. Please wait a moment. I'll go and prepare it for you right away.”

Just as Vanda was about to leave with Francine, Bailey spoke up again.

“Wait a minute. Are you guys just going to leave like this?”

Vanda turned to look at Bailey, not understanding what else the former wanted.

“Your airplane does offer fresh juice, no? As a Diamond Card member of your airline, it's not too much to ask for a glass of fresh juice, is it? Right now, this air stewardess not only failed to meet my request, but I also had to raise my voice and damage my own image just to get a glass of juice. Isn't this a failure in her job? Shouldn't she apologize to me?”

Upon hearing Bailey's words, everyone around felt she was being a bit excessive.

She was the one who set such stringent demands, and now she expects others to apologize to her?

Tears welled up in Francine's eyes.
