"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to London Heathrow. We ask that all passengers please remain seated. The cabin door is about to be opened, and we will have officials boarding the aircraft. Please remain seated until instructed."Marcus squeezed his eyes shut.The door opened. Seraphina watched as two uniformed Metropolitan Police constables boarded, followed by a man in a perfectly tailored suit: Jonathan Briggs, the AuraJet UK operations director. He was sharp, fast-moving, and looked furious.He walked directly to Suite 1A, ignoring everyone else, and bowed his head slightly. "Ms. Jordan, welcome to London. I am appalled. I cannot apologize enough.""Save it, Jonathan," Seraphina said, gathering her Tumi bag. "The problem is in 1C and 1D."Jonathan nodded, his face grim. He turned to the police. "Constables, Mr. Marcus Thorne in 1C and Ms. Chloe Davies in 1D. They are to be escorted off the aircraft. Their details are being flagged, and AuraJet is pressing for a full public order offense, citing threatening and discriminatory behavior."The constables moved. "Mr. Thorne, please come with us."Marcus stood, his legs shaking. As he stepped into the aisle, he had to pass Seraphina's suite. He stopped, his face a grotesque mask of desperation."Ms. Jordan... Seraphina, please. I have a family. This will ruin me. It was a mistake. A... a stupid, drunken mistake."Seraphina looked at him, her face as hard as marble. "When you laughed at me, you were sober. When you called me a monkey, you were sober. When you told your partner I was a diversity quota, you were sober. Your drunken mistake was just your real self, but louder. Your apologies are worthless because you're not sorry for what you did; you're just sorry you got caught by me. Get off my plane."The constables grabbed his arms. "Sir, let's go."They hauled him out. Chloe followed, hiding her face, sobbing. As they were marched down the jet bridge, every passenger in business class and premium economy watched; many, having heard the commotion, were recording on their phones. The walk of shame was total, public, and humiliating.Seraphina was the next off the plane. Jonathan Briggs walked with her."What's his status, Jonathan?" she asked.
