Kristi, a young flight attendant, had seen all kinds of people in business class. But one elegant couple stood out—especially when the sharply dressed man presented the woman, Isabella, with a diamond necklace mid-flight. They were affectionate, rich, and clearly in love. Kristi congratulated them and thought nothing more of it.
Until the next day. When Kristi visited her mother, she was stunned to be introduced to her mom’s new fiancé—Edwin—the same man from the plane, now pretending he didn’t recognize Kristi. He was charming, generous, and had swept her mother off her feet with promises of love and wealth. A wedding was already being planned. Kristi was torn. Was this a misunderstanding? Or was her mom being scammed? Her concerns were dismissed. “You just don’t want me to be happy,” her mother snapped.
