Chapter 1359 Rumors
I’m just asking for trouble.
At that moment, the flight attendant deeply regretted her actions. I shouldn’t have believed the rumors. I should have been more aware of my attitude toward my passengers.
The flight attendant wished she could turn back time to right her wrongs.
“I don’t know who spread the rumors, but I do know that it came from the economy cabin.” The flight attendant lowered her head and replied sheepishly.
Natalie narrowed her eyes. “The economy cabin…”
“Madam, do you want me to go check out the person behind this?” The bodyguard who had pressed the bell stepped forward and offered.
Another one of her bodyguards nodded. “Me too, Madam. We’ll have a better chance of finding the culprit if we go together. After all, two heads are better than one.”
“Go on, then.” Natalie waved her hand.
The two bodyguards grunted in response and made their way toward the economy cabin.
The rest of the bodyguards stayed behind at the first-class cabin since someone had to stick around to protect Natalie.
“Um…” The flight attendant raised her head and stared at Natalie warily. “Excuse m-me… Madam, can you please let me off just this once? Can you please not take me to the management? I’ll be fired if you do. Please, I beg you.”
She knew that Natalie was a powerful socialite since she had booked the entire first-class cabin and brought four bodyguards along with her on her trip. Her airline company would be on Natalie’s side if her boss ever got involved.
After all, the airline company couldn’t afford to offend such a promising customer.
Hence, the flight attendant could only place her hope on Natalie.
I’ll be able to get out of this unscathed as long as this lady here lets me off.
Natalie stared at her coldly. “You want me to let you off?”
“Yes, Madam.” The flight attendant bowed even lower.
Natalie twitched her lips. “I can let you off. But before this, I want to know, is this how you treat your fellow passengers? Do you view them with disdain and judge them according to what you’ve heard?”
“No.” The flight attendant quickly waved her hand. “I hate homewreckers. That’s why I couldn’t help but stare at you with disdain. I don’t usually do that to my passengers. Madam, you can check my assessment if you don’t believe me. I have a thing against homewreckers because my sister was hurt by one. I’m so so sorry, Madam. I know I’m at fault. I’m really sorry.”
The flight attendant burst into tears as she spoke.
Natalie rubbed her temples. “Why are you crying? I didn’t even bully you.”
“I-I can’t help it. I’m just too scared of losing this job,” the flight attendant replied in a small voice.
Natalie sighed. “Forget it. I’ll let you off this time since you fell prey to rumors. I hope you don’t repeat the same mistake in the future. Or else you might just offend someone else and lose your job.”
The flight attendant looked up excitedly at her words. She shed tears of joy and nodded. “I know, Madam. I will remember this forever. I won’t do it again.”
“Okay, go back to work then.” Natalie waved her away.
The flight attendant wiped away her tears and broke into a smile. She then bowed politely to Natalie, thanked her, and left.
One of the bodyguards returned from the economy cabin the moment she left. “Madam, I’ve found the culprit.” His face darkened as he spoke.
“Oh?” Natalie pursed her lips as a look of disgust flashed in her eyes. “Who is it?”
She hated people who spread rumors.
Rumors could kill. There had been many instances whereby people had killed themselves due to rumors. One would also be tempted to feel, think and act toward others in a different way than he or she otherwise would because of rumors.
One should never underestimate the power of words.
People who spread rumors were selfish and inconsiderate. They never took into account what kind of life their victims had to lead when they started these rumors.
