Long Time No See

948 Words
The one who came up to Paula was a flight steward. However, Paula had seen Selina's face the moment the curtain was lifted. That was Selina. She couldn't possibly mistake someone else for Selina! That woman wasn't dead at all! The quack doctor had lied! Paula simply asked the flight steward for a glass of water to send him away. She did not walk towards the front cabin door before the plane took off and Hank fell asleep. "It's really you." The woman sitting in a cabin crew's seat was indeed Paula's sister, Selina, who had been missing for four years. "Long time no see, my dear sister. I missed you so much during the four years you disappeared." Selina felt disgusted as she heard Paula's hypocritical words. Selina froze for half a minute before she unbuckled her seat belt and stood up. The look of surprise on Selina's face soon disappeared. Selina was elegant and beautiful again. Since she couldn't avoid meeting them, she would have to face them head-on. The past four years had taught her that she should neither stir up trouble nor be too timid. "Long time no see, Mrs. Peterson!" She said word by word, and she even put special stress on 'Mrs. Peterson'. That was the title that once belonged to her, but now she was using it to address somebody else. She found it a little ironic, but that was all. "Are you jealous of me?" Paula raised her eyebrow proudly and held her belly with her hand subconsciously. "I took away your man, your father, and your company. Everything you once owned belongs to me now." "And you. You were once the daughter of the Evans family living a wealthy life. Who would have thought that you would be reduced to working as a waitress on a tiny plane? Fortunately, you have inherited your mother's pretty face, otherwise, you might not even be able to get the job of a waitress!" Selina had thought that Paula might be a bit slicker after four years, but she found that Paula was still both blunt and mean. "Miss Foster..." Selina wanted to speak, but Paula interrupted her. "No, I'm no longer a Foster. I'm a member of the Evans family now. In fact, I am the only daughter of the Evans family now." She deliberately stressed the word 'only'. Selina would be lying if she said she was not angry at all. The smile on Selina's face had certainly stiffened, but her education didn't allow her to quarrel with passengers while she was working, especially when she was talking to a pregnant woman. "Mrs. Peterson," Selina finally decided she should just address Paula by that title, "the plane is flying fast and we may hit turbulence at any time. For the safety of you and the child in your belly, please return to your seat and fasten your seat belt immediately." After saying that, she put on a harmless and sweet smile again. She had spent so much time with Jerome, and she had learned nothing else but disguise from him. He told her that people's true emotions were their trump cards. Once their trump card was exposed, they would lose half of the game. Paula came here to provoke Selina. However, she not only failed to irritate Selina, but she also made herself angry now. She felt upset because Selina was not affected by her words at all. Paula heard a sound from behind. She knew that Hank was up. A cunning scheme popped up in Paula's mind. She hurriedly took a step forward and grabbed at Selina's arm. Unexpectedly, the plane jolted violently. Paula could not stand still. Her body fell backward quickly. She didn't even need to put on a show. Fortunately, Hank reacted quickly and caught Paula with his arms in time. "Why did you push me?" Paula directly accused Selina of pushing her! Then, she let out a long moan and complained as if she was wronged, "I have indeed done you wrong in the past, but my child is innocent! If you want revenge, come at me! Don't hurt the child I have with Hank!" Then she really started to sob. Hank stared at the face which he was once very familiar with. There was a surprising look on his face at first. And then, he realized something and felt grateful. But finally, he became angry. A few seconds later, he raised his hand and slapped Selina. "You should blame yourself for your child's death. It has nothing to do with Paula! Come to me if you have any problems. How could you even try to harm an unborn child? Selina Evans, why did you become such a vicious woman?" The disbelief in his angry voice pierced Selina's heart like a knife. Selina was lost for words for a moment. Half of her face hurt, but she just stared at him blankly. "How can you try to harm an unborn child?" Was he sure that he was not talking about himself? Had Hank ever thought about how vicious he himself was? Selina almost lost her temper. Suddenly, Jerome's alluring voice came from the loudspeaker, "I have seen from the monitor that some passengers have left their seats and wandered around in the cabin. For your safety, please return to your seats and fasten your seatbelts immediately!" The monitor. Yes, there were surveillance cameras on the plane! Selina put on her professional smile again. She glanced at Hank, and then she fixed her eyes on Paula's face and asked seriously, "Mrs. Peterson, we have surveillance cameras here. Could you say it again? Who pushed you just now?"
