After Divorce: Loved by the Secret Billionaire CEO

Chapter 28 In a plane with Raine

Ch. 28 / 155 Apr 28, 2026

Rachel's POV

Lana chest heaved up and down in anger, as she pointed her middle finger at me waving it angrily.

"I know what you're trying to do. It's not going to work... What are you still even doing here?"

I looked left and right. Everyone in the room attention was now on us... Including Raine and that little kid, he was cute though.

But what was Lana doing? Couldn't she see that she was making a fool of herself and she was trying to drag me down with her.

And the 'what are you doing here?' question, did she think that mother complains and orders would keep me away from the set?

"What do you mean? I'm an actress her and so are you." I answered looking around the room..

Lana shook her head in rage.

"You still had the guts to show your face here after everything mother told you..."

"Well... Your mother only said that I should keep my younger sister safe. She doesn't want you to get influence by anyone, what did you think she said..." I asked blinking my eyes even more innocently.

It was cute to see Lana this riled up... I would have laughed if I wasn't trying to act like I had no idea what was going on. Got to up an act for the audience here.

"Or did you tell her something that might make her tell me not to come anymore... Whatever could that be?"

"You... " Lana immediately understood where I was going.

If she said it out loud that she told someone or even as much as insinuated that I was sleeping with the director... News would definitely reach him and he would get angry for the false accusation, more so that he might kick her out of the set.

At least she had sense... That I would give to her.

"Lana... We have to go, people are watching..." One of the two minions Lana always walked me dragged her gently whispering into her ears, but I was able to hear her.

Lana brushed the girl off before glaring at me.

"This isn't over..." She muttered before walking out, pushing away any chair that stood in her way.

Of course it isn't, I'm just getting started with you, by the time I'm done, you're going to regret messing with me.

...

Weeks rushed by and before I knew it, I was on a plane heading to Europe; to be precise, England or it London? I wasn't sure. They're the same place right? Whatever.

I searched around the plane for my seat number and finally found it after few minutes, but there was a little problem... It was a freaking window seat!

I had serious aerophobia and seating next to a window seat only made it worse, so I did what any reasonable person with aerophobia as severe as mine and had a window seat would... Switch seat.

It was a first class flight and my seatmate had yet to arrive, so I just sat on his chair. It was whoever it was fault for coming late.

I had already had my eye mask on, ready for the horror, which was flying to begin when I felt a tap on my shoulder.

I ignored it hoping it would give the person talking me the hint that I didn't want to speak.

But then I felt the tap again.

Argh... What was wrong with this people. Just when I was finally getting my body relaxed I got disturbed... Great just great.

I yanked the eye mask away from my face roughly, but my eyes were still close trying to curl my anger to avoid lashing out at the person.

"What is it?" I said I midst of my calm breaths.

"You're on my seat..." Came the person low hoarse voice.

Okay...That was a reasonable reason for disturbing me. But...His voice, it sounded familiar

I immediately looked up to meet his face. My eyes widened in surprise.

"Raine..."

It was Raine!

This was his seat?

"Er..." I just kept staring at his hot face, I had no words.

"My seat?" He asked pointing at the chair I was sitting on. That was when I remembered that we were on a place, to Europe and I had a window seat... Had because I wasn't giving this other seat up.

"You can seat on mine..." I responded pointing to the window seat next to me.

He raised a brow at me and I just had to explain.

"I have aerophobia..." He just nodded with an 'oh' before taking my seat.

The next few seconds was pretty awkward.

Of all people why was it his seat? He was the male lead... One of the main stars in the show... Why was he seating close to me?

That director was not as organized as I thought.

My thinking was shortened by the buzzing sound I heard from the speakers before the pilot announced that the flight was about to take off.

I gripped my chair tightly to the point my knuckles turned white.

Damn! Why was I on this plane again?

I had once promised myself that I was never going to get on a plane again, because I almost died the last time... But here I was again, facing my trauma.

"Are you okay?" I heard Raine ask from the side.

No... I was not okay.

I gave him a short nod... And then immediately I shook my head. Beams of sweat trickled down my face as I felt the plane slowly move up.

Suddenly I felt something on my eyes, I opend them immediately... But everywhere was black.

"Wear them back... It might help."

Oh... So he was the one who... Nevermind I needed it. I clasped the eye mask around my eyes.

I was still doing that when suddenly I couldn't hear the sound of the plane's engine any longer, instead it places by a calm soothing music.

At least to me in was soothing... Alone by Alan Walker, one of my best songs at least before Lana ruined my life and destroyed my relationship with everyone I held dear.

I clicked on the side of the head phone to change the song... I released a relaxed breath when it began to play, Go by Cat Burns.

I slowly released my grip on the seat, breathing in and out to calm my tensed nerves.

"Better?" I heard Raine ask.

I nodded... This time for real.

The music was actually helping me.

"Thank you..." I whispered allowing myself to be taken in by the lyrics of the song.

... I'll sing it loud in case you don't already know,

Pack up your shit and go...

The song was perfect. It was everything I wanted to tell David... At least if he still gave a shit about me so it would hurt.

I smile as she reached my best part.

... This is the end...

I hummed along side with the song, nodding my head alone side the lyrics.

...

What Rachel didn't know was that while she was relaxing to the cool music on her ears... Lana who was seating at her back was glaring daggers at her.

The handmade fan she was holding broke into to because of how much force she was putting on it.

How dare you Rachel!

She had just taken David away from her and now the girl is trying to get the attention of Raine... Just what was her problem!

Lana glare at Rachel intensified to the point Rachel began to feel a shark gaze at her back, but ignored it and continued to listen to her music.

Olivia seating not to far from her saw her little actions and a mischievous smirk appeared on her face.

There was a story between Lana and Rachel... She could feel it. It could possibly be because of a man.

Olivia laughed softly.

She would never fight because of a man, because she only had one person in her heart, Ethan Wright!
