Lysander asked, “Did the person who switched places with you mention why they did it?”

The middle–aged man chuckled as he reminisced, “That young man didn’t really provide a reason. He just straight up asked if I was willing to switch seats with him for a while. I noticed his boarding pass was for first class. He assured me it was fine, so I went ahead and swapped with him.”

Josiah was indeed lucky, for he had encountered one who didn’t pry too deeply for this change of seats.

Lysander seemed lost in thought as she quietly remained seated even after the plane had landed. Unlike the other passengers who were quick to stand up the moment the cabin door opened, she chose to wait until almost everyone had disembarked before leisurely following behind.

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance around, truly not wanting to run into Josiah again. Although it was inevitable to meet him at the summit, she preferred to delay such encounters as much as possible.

Just then, a flight attendant happened to walk by.

Lysander asked, “Could you tell me, has everyone from the first class cabin disembarked yet?”

The flight attendant was puzzled, but she dutifully addressed the passenger’s query. “The first class passengers have already left on the shuttle bus.”

“Thank you.” Lysander visibly sighed in relief, for the first time ever, feeling grateful for the disparity in services on both sides.

The passengers in economy class did not receive any particular service and had to collect their checked luggage from the carousel themselves.

Lysander intentionally lingered for quite a while before she finally left the terminal to hail a taxi.

Then, at the moment she turned around with her suitcase, she saw her old adversary again.

Josiah stood tall and elegant next to a business vehicle, with one hand casually tucked in his pocket. His brows were slightly furrowed, though it was unclear whether he was growing impatient from waiting or was simply in a bad mood.

Tiffany was the first to spot her. She greeted Lysander with a surprised delight. “Lysa, what a coincidence! Did you also take this flight? I didn’t even notice you on the plane.”

Lysander had no choice but to brace herself and walk over. “I’m in economy class.”
