Chapter 3 - The Stunned Billionaire
A tight, cinematic close-up captured Wesley’s face.
The blood violently drained from his perfectly contoured cheeks, leaving him looking like a terrified ghost. His heart pounded so hard it physically ached against his ribs.
Moving with a slow, almost robotic stiffness, Wesley slowly stood up from his luxurious first-class seat.
He didn't look at Sloane. He completely ignored the screaming woman in the dark red dress. He stared directly past his arrogant fiancée, his dark eyes locking onto the flight attendant standing in the aisle.
It was Sarah. His ex-wife.
The woman he had loved more than anything in the world. The woman who had inexplicably, suddenly abandoned him seven years ago, leaving him utterly devastated and turning him into a cold, ruthless corporate machine.
An extreme, cinematic close-up focused on Sarah’s face.
For the first time, Sarah finally met Wesley’s eyes. Her flawless, professional expression completely, violently faltered. She gasped softly, her eyes widening in stunned, breathless disbelief. She had taken this last-minute shift to cover for a sick coworker. She never expected to see the billionaire who had utterly destroyed her life sitting in seat 1A.
The heavy, suffocating silence between them was dripping with cinematic realism. The rest of the airplane completely faded away.
