Who Is The Real Boss?

The jet was out of control? How could this be? How could the pilot suddenly lose control of the jet? Annabel was scared out of her wits.

After all, she was deathly afraid of heights.

Rupert patted her on the shoulder and stood up.

His handsome face was unusually cold.

"I'll go and have a look."

Then he started to walk to the cockpit.

"I'll go with you,"

Annabel said feebly, her face a ghastly pale.She was terribly afraid of heights, and as the jet shuddered violently, she felt like she was about to die.

"Okay," Rupert answered lightly.

He stretched out his right hand to hold Annabel, pulling her into his arms.

"I'm here.Don't be afraid."

The jet continued to shake violently.It was extremely difficult for Annabel to balance, let alone walk.I Panic seized her heart, rendering her unable to think straight.

Luckily, Rupert held onto her tightly, which made her feel inexplicably safe.

Together, the two headed to the cockpit.

"What's going on?" Rupert asked the captain with a frown.

Sweat trickled down the captain's forehead.

He was busy controlling the steering wheel with both hands, but all the color had drained from his face.

"I can't control it.We're going to crash!"

Crash? Annabel gasped in shock.How could this be? If the jet crashed, then all the people on the jet—including her— would die.She told herself that she had to calm down at the moment, but fear consumed every fiber of her being.

Hyperventilating, she looked at the man beside her and asked in bewilderment, "Rupert, what're we going to do?"

"Don't be afraid." Rupert smoothed her hair gently.

"We'll be fine."

Then, he turned to the captain and said decisively, "Calm down first.Do your best to keep the aircraft steady.As soon as we reach a suitable height, we'll parachute out of the jet immediately."

Nodding shakily, the captain stuttered, "I-I'll do my best."

Fortunately, Rupert's jet was specially equipped with parachutes.

They could jump if worse came to worst.
