High Above the Clouds
Kristi, a flight attendant, tended to an affectionate couple in business class. The man, dressed in a sharp suit, presented a velvet box to his companion, Isabella. As he clasped a delicate necklace around her neck, she beamed with joy. “May I, my gorgeous Isabella?” he whispered. The next day, Kristi visited her mother, who introduced her to her new fiancé, Edwin—the same man from the flight. Kristi’s heart sank as she realized the deception.
The Confrontation
“Nice to meet you too,” Kristi replied cautiously when Edwin introduced himself as if they had never met. Over dinner, Edwin regaled them with stories but was vague about his past. Kristi confronted her mother later. “Mom, what do you really know about Edwin?” Her mother dismissed her concerns, enamored by Edwin’s charm and wealth.
A Plan to Uncover the Truth
Kristi tracked down Isabella, who revealed Edwin had asked her for a large sum of money. They devised a plan to expose him. Kristi disguised herself as a waitress at a restaurant where Isabella was to meet Edwin. During the meeting, Kristi swapped Edwin’s phone and discovered his active dating profile, filled with flirtatious messages.
The Wedding Day Unraveling
On the wedding day, dozens of women Edwin had deceived crashed the ceremony. “Scammer!” one yelled, causing chaos. They swarmed Edwin, shouting accusations and attacking him. The police intervened, and Edwin was led away. Kristi’s mother, too proud to admit her mistake, left in tears. Kristi resolved to ensure Edwin faced justice. “What we’ve started tonight is only the beginning,” Isabella had said.
