NovelEnglish---- Chapter 402 That night, Maggie went with the rest of the family to the airport to head back to New York. They
were in business class. Isabella and Hugo sat on the right, by the window. Maggie and Old Mrs. Miller sat in the
middle section on the left. With Isabella taken care of by Hugo, Maggie focused on adjusting Old Mrs. Miller's
seat. While she was speaking with the old lady, Janice, Old Mrs. Green, and the others cdown the aisle
toward them. The Green family weren't surprised to see them-if anything, they smiled knowingly.
Clearly, they already knew the Millers had been in Miami, and that they'd booked the sflight back to New
York. Sophia looked straight at Maggie, smirked provocatively, and raised her voice: ---- "Grandma, Auntie-some
people spent all that trunning to the hospital to fawn over Old Mrs. Wilson, thinking they could curry favor
with her and cling to my brother-in-law to stop the divorce. But the moment the old lady's health improved, my
brother-in-law didn't even. wait for my sister to bring it up-he immediately arranged to finalize the divorce.
| used to worry because that person kept dragging her feet and refusing to file, but my sister said she trusted
him to handle it. Looks like she was right." Everyone from the Green family knew Sophia was saying it for
Maggie's ears. Old Mrs. Green chuckled, patted Sophia's hand, and looked at Maggie and Old Mrs. Miller with
open mockery. Janice's expression stayed calm. She didn't seem at all surprised that Franklin had seized the first
chance to push through the divorce. She didn't even glance at the Millers as she walked elegantly past them to
her seat. Jason and Old Mrs.
Miller, however, understood perfectly well that Sophia was aiming to humiliate them. The old lady's face, already

her words would land, until an impatient passenger behind them barked, "Move it already! What are you chatting
about?" The Greens had been riding high lately. Sophia bristled at being scolded and turned, ready to snap back-
when suddenly Maggie, hidden by the luggage bins, stretched out her foot. Sophia stumbled forward, crashing
straight into Old Mrs. Green.
Both went sprawling onto the carpeted floor. Janice had just sat down. Seeing them fall, she shot to her feet, face
dark, and hurried to lift her mother. "Mom, are you okay?" Sophia scrambled up, livid, blood at her mouth from
where her teeth had struck the armrest. She glared at Maggie. "It was you! You did that on purpose!" Maggie's
gaze was icy. "I have no idea what you're talking about." "You-!" Sophia began, but the passenger who'd scolded
them before cut in loudly: "You weren't watching where ---- you were going.
Don't blothers!" Though the carpet softened the fall, Sophia's lip was bleeding. Furious, she opened her
mouth again-only for the spassenger to snap, "If you don't want to fly, get off the plane. Stop holding
everyone up!" Others chimed in impatiently: "Yeah, sit down already!" Sophia's face burned. She wanted to
retort, but Janice said curtly, "Yao-Yao, sit." Though fuming, Sophia didn't dare disobey. She shot Maggie one last
vicious glare. "Just wait." Maggie ignored her, adjusted Old Mrs. Miller's seat, and sat down. Old Mrs.
