Chapter 490


    After washing up and getting dressed, Ethan went back to the bedside and stroked J’s hair. Then,


    he leaned forward and kissed her.


    J squeezed her legs together as the growing sensation made her ufortable. She was half


    naked, revealing her slender back.


    “I’m going to thepany now.” Ethan smiled, his eyes gleaming with tenderness. He touched J’s


    quiveringshes and trailed down her flushed cheeks.


    Not long after Ethan left, J’s phone rang.


    She was still sleepy. Ethan hadn’t let her restst night. J was exhausted; her body felt like jelly.


    She didn’t feel like moving out of bed. But her phone kept ringing and she had no choice but to pick up.


    “Hello, who’s this?” J mumbled, her eyes still closed.


    “J, it’s me, L. Are you free this afternoon?” L asked,ing straight to the point. “Do you want


    to go skydiving with me? I have an extra ticket.”


    J pursed her lips and thought about it. Ethan had to work overtime today. It would be boring to stay


    at home all alone.


    Besides, J had never gone skydiving before. She was thrilled to try it. “Okay. Send me the address.


    I’ll directly go there in the afternoon.”


    J hung up the phone and slept until noon.


    J hung up the phone and slept until noon.


    Before meeting L, she sent a message to Ethan, informing him that she was going to try skydiving.


    J hung up the phone and slept until noon.


    Before meeting L, she sent a message to Ethan, informing him that she was going to try skydiving.


    But Ethan was busy; he hadn’t read the message.


    J and L soon arrived at the club and took a helicopter to the spot.


    “J, have you tried skydiving before?” L asked when she saw the excitement in J’s eyes.


    “No, but I’ve always wanted to try.” J’s stomach flipped with excitement and fear as she looked


    down at the surrounding mountains. Everything looked tiny from where she was standing. She had


    never tried skydiving before and couldn’t wait to experience it.


    Hearing it was J’s first time, the coach once again enlisted the dos and don’ts.


    L had tried skydiving several times. It was no big deal to her. Thus, she felt rxed.


    “Is this your parachute? Gosh, it’s so beautiful.” L sighed as she looked at the heavy parachute


    equipment in awe.

    The female coach pointed at the backpack in front of L. “This is your parachute, and that’s your


    friend’s.”


    L nodded nomittally and nced at it.


    Just then, she discovered a problem with the string in J’s parachute. It looked like the string was


    severed before and was tied again in ce.


    L had tried skydiving before, so she had experience in the sport. Considering the faulty string, the


    switch of the parachute was likely to get stuck in the knot that would prevent the parachute from


    opening in mid-air. On the off chance the parachute opened, it wouldn’t function normally, let alone


    withstand the weight of two adults.


    J and the coach would plunge to death.


    L pointed at the parachute, wanting to remind the coach about the severed string but subconsciously


    shut up.


    Somehow, Charis’s words rang in her ears.


    J and her parents had an unshakable rtionship. L believed her mother and father would


    ignore her as long as J was around.


    However, if J died in an ident, L would continue to be the only daughter of the White family.


    Her life would be back on track again.


    Thinking of this, L chose to remain silent. She adjusted J’s parachute so that no one would


    notice the knot.
