Chapter 132 Where Has She Gone
“Even if she… could once fly a plane, she’s been out of service for a few years now. She’s definitely rusty, nowhere near as proficient as Sidonie,” Marley stubbornly stated. “Her careless critique, if it’s not malice, then what is it?”
“Malicious?” Julius scoffed. “Aren’t there a few others here who can fly planes? Ask them if they think this critique is malicious!”
The pilots who were also part of the performance looked at each other, uncertainty etched on their faces. Finally, one of them stepped forward. “Ms. Bridger’s critique is spot on. There indeed was an issue during Ms. Stonehurst’s aerial performance just now.”
After all, the performance just now was recorded. If they claimed that there was nothing wrong with Sidonie’s flight, and then someone later pulled out the recording to challenge them, it would be like they were slapping their own faces. It would make people think their skills were subpar.
Therefore, it was absolutely necessary to tell the truth at that moment.
Sidonie’s expression turned sour. “How much did she pay you to speak up for her like this!”
“Ms. Stonehurst, we didn’t take any money, and everything we said was the truth. If you think we’re lying, feel free to show the footage we filmed to an expert for their assessment,” the other pilot said.

She awkwardly pulled Trent aside, avoiding the swarm of reporters and photographers.
Initially, she intended to regain her dignity in front of Quinn, hoping to make her feel ashamed. But instead, she ended up embarrassing herself in front of the media.
“She was just spiteful, that’s all. What does it matter if she used to fly planes? She hasn’t been in a cockpit for years, who knows how much her skills have deteriorated!” Sidonie exclaimed indignantly.
Her skills deteriorated?
Trent found his thoughts drifting back to a time before their divorce, when he had seen Quinn piloting the same model of aircraft at an aviation expo. He remembered how she had taken to the sky, putting on a breathtaking display.
There was no awkwardness at all. Even as a layman, he could tell that Quinn’s skills were superior to Sidonie’s.
Back then, the aerial performance Quinn put on was incredibly challenging, yet her landing was impressively smooth.
However, facing the angered Sidonie at that moment, all these words, Trent chose to keep them unspoken.
Just as the two were about to leave the scene, suddenly, a sharp cry rang out. “Oh no, a child has fallen into
