appear concerned that I had walked off the plane.

That told me everything.

He expected me to cool down.

Swallow the humiliation.

I walked down the steps and entered the private terminal.

My phone immediately began filling with calls and messages.

Daniel.

Aaron’s chief financial officer.

His message was short.

Did you leave the aircraft?

I replied:

Yes.

His response came almost instantly.
