"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have an emergency situation, and the plane cannot take off at this time. Please disembark in an orderly manner..."
The passengers were stunned, having never witnessed such an extraordinary scene before.
"What... what's going on? Are there still people who haven't boarded?"
"That can't be right. Isn't this a chartered flight? There shouldn't be anyone else."
The airport announcement was repeated several times over the loudspeaker.
No matter how displeased Scarlett was, she had no choice but to lead the company employees back to the waiting area.
At that moment, a line of about a dozen ground crew members approached me in an orderly fashion.
All eyes were on me.
I smiled slightly, walking towards them unhurriedly.
"Excuse me, are you Miss Winters?" the lead captain asked cautiously, looking at me.
I gave him a gentle smile.
"That's right, I'm Melody. Thank you for your hard work."
