Chapter 494
The Mountaintop Parachute Club had been thrown into chaos, and everyone was panicking.
It had been run for over a decade, and not once had something like this happened.
Ethan demanded to speak to the manager of the club and asked him what had happened. The
manager was sweating buckets, visibly in shock, and all he could do was to me the employees of
the club.
“What on earth happened here? I’ve only been away from the club of two days, but you’ve already
caused someone’s life to be in danger!” The manager was enraged, pointing and cussing at the
employees.
“Get to the point,” Ethan grunted.
“Yes, Mr. Larson.” The manager nodded and bowed to Ethan while wearing a ttering smile. Then, the
smile on his face disappeared as he turned his attention to the employees. “Have you found Mrs.
Larson? Is she okay?”
One of the employees replied hurriedly, “We’ve received calls from Mrs. Larson and the instructor. They
said that they’re safe and sound now.”
Ethan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
“We’ve already called the police and sent people to search and rescue them. Soon, we’ll be able to find
them,” the employee said.
“I’ming with you,” Ethan said with a nod.

The helicopter roved over the forest as the sound of its propeller resonated in the air.
When J looked up, she saw a tall man going down thedder, which was hanging from the
helicopter.
Secondster, she realized who it was. Ethan was wearing a sullen expression, and his eyes depicted
aplicated emotion.
Bruises and wounds were all over J’s body. As she stood on the ground, she looked like she was
barely able to keep herself standing. The Mountointop Porochute Club hod been thrown into choos,

The helicopter roved over the forest os the sound of its propeller resonoted in the oir.
When J looked up, she sow o toll mon going down the lodder, which wos honging from the
helicopter.
Seconds loter, she reolized who it wos. Ethon wos weoring o sullen expression, ond his eyes depicted
oplicoted emotion.
Bruises ond wounds were oll over J’s body. As she stood on the ground, she looked like she wos
borely oble to keep herself stonding.
She pursed her lips and looked down, feeling remorseful. “Honey.”
She pursed her lips and looked down, feeling remorseful. “Honey.”
“Don’t you know how dangerous it is to go skydiving? J Larson!”
Ethan shouted angrily.
J didn’t dare to say anything.
“Turn around.” He lifted her arm and her the clothes on her back. Rage filled his eyes as his face
turned grim. “You almost died!”
All the wounds on J’s body made Ethan feel so sorry for her.
J just let him chastise her, and she didn’t bother to argue. Still, she was really scared. Had she
been unlucky, she might’ve actually died this time.
While tugging at Ethan’s sleeve, she said timidly, “I’m sorry, honey.”
When he saw the tears in her eyes, his heart softened. Truthfully, he still had things to say, but he
couldn’t get mad at her anymore.
“Let’s take you to the hospital first!” Ethan carried her to the helicopter and gently ced her on one of
the seats.

Pretty soon, J and the coach were sent to the hospital.
Beal and Johanna arrived soon after. They were so shocked by what happened.
So many stuff had happened within just a few days.
“Where did you skydive, J? God, that establishment must be horrible! They can’t even guarantee
the safety of their customers!” Based on the tone of Johanna’s voice, she was livid. Her eyes were
bursting with anger, and it looked like she wanted to burn that parachute club to the ground or make
them disappear from Barnes.
“I’m so sorry, Mrs. White. It’s all our fault.” The manager of the Mountaintop Parachute Club didn’t know
how to exin the matter. It was true that the ident happened in their club.
All he could do was sigh andment the fact that he was so unfortunate that such powerful people were
enraged in his watch.
After hearing that J was involved in an ident, Draco went to the hospital to visit her.
He had a strangely agitated feeling in his heart when he heard the news, so he wasted no time to rush
over.
“You can rest in the hospital for as long as you need. Don’t worry about your job at W Marks. I’ll give
you permission to take a sick leave until you’ve fully recovered.” Seeing that Ethan and J’s parents
were in the ward as well, Draco said nothing more. After he gave his gift to her, he left right away.
Later on, Ethan put J to sleep before leaving the ward to begin investigating the ident.
The club’s manager said to him, “We pay great attention to our customers’ safety. Each time, before
they skydive, we make sure that the parachute is secured and that there’s nothing that can cause an
ident. Logically speaking, the chances of the parachute being malfunctioning are very small.”

As a sign of their sincere apologies, all the staff of the club hade to the hospital.
L’s instructor came forward and whispered to Ethan, “I saw that woman touching Mrs. Larson’s
parachute package before she jumped. I don’t know if she did something to the parachute, but you
should ask her. She might know something.”
The instructor nced at L as thetter sat on the hospital chair with a forlorn expression.
