Chapter 333 Randall’s Gesture
The chatter around her drifted straight into Lillian’s ears, word for word, but it didn’t stir even the slightest ripple in her expression.
What she didn’t notice was that someone had already turned their attention toward her.
Rachel had been studying the quiet girl in the corner for a while.
Randall called her name twice, but she didn’t respond; even Celeste, seated beside him, picked up on the odd shift in the air.
Following Rachel’s gaze, Celeste spotted the girl too.
Dressed simply, no makeup, yet carrying herself with a quiet, unshakable composure that was… startling.
Celeste muttered under her breath, “She’s not even that pretty p>
“Shut up.” Rachel’s sharp tone cut through the cabin, her eyes like steel; Celeste jolted, stunned by the sudden reprimand.
Since joining Rachel’s team, she had never once been scolded like that.
Then, Randall rose to his feet, walked straight over to where Lillian sat, pulled off his mask, and greeted her with a warm smile. “Ms. Harrington, sorry to bother you p>
Rachel followed closely behind him.
Lillian looked up at the two of them. From the whispers floating around moments ago, she’d already guessed who he was; she couldn’t help but thought. What a small world… to run into them on a plane again.
“It’s you p>
Truth be told, her impression of Randall was limited-just that he was a world-class star.
Rachel, however, had left a stronger mark, loyal, decisive, sharp; a woman who could size up a crisis in an instant and act without hesitation. It was no wonder she had built Randall into the global icon he was today.
“That’s right,” Randall said, smiling. “Last time on the plane-if it weren’t for you, to put it bluntly, my funeral would’ve already been held. I’ve been wanting to find the right time to thank you properly, but the chance never came. To meet you again like this… I’d call it fate p>
Rachel nodded in agreement. “Exactly. If you hadn’t been there that day, I don’t even want to

Finished
Lillian smiled lightly. “No need for thanks. In that situation, I’d have helped anyone. Really, it’s nothing worth mentioning p>
Randall slipped a card from the small leather pouch in his hand and offered it to her. “Either way, we won’t forget what you did. If you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to reach out p>
Without a hint of false modesty, Lillian accepted the card with a faint smile. “Then I won’t stand on ceremony p>
“I’ll be waiting,” Randall said with another easy smile before turning back with Rachel toward his seat.
From the moment he saw her again, recognition had sparked instantly-not just because of her face, but because of the commanding presence she’d carried that day on the plane. He still couldn’t quite grasp how someone so young radiated that kind of power, enough to make everyone around her instinctively fall in line.
He had assumed their paths would never cross again; fate, it seemed, had other plans.
From her seat, Celeste stole a sidelong glance at Lillian, suspicion swirling. She couldn’t make sense of the dynamic between them.
“Rachel,” she whispered to Rachel, “why are you being so polite to some random girl p>
Rachel’s sharp eyes slid to her, a cold smirk tugging at her lips. “You think that girl is just some random nobody? Forget everything else, just that outfit, and the watch on her wrist. I can tell you right now, that alone is worth more than you make in a year.” And that was without mentioning her flawless medical skills; there was nothing “simple” about her.
Celeste’s jaw dropped. “But she looks so plain p>
“Plain?” Rachel let out a derisive laugh. “That plain watch on her wrist? Five million dollars. Do you think you could ever afford it p>
