Of course, Ethan wouldn’t just trust in this woman’s words. He went to the ward of Janet’s coach, who
was also severely injured in the accident.
The coach’s foot was in a bulky cast. Knowing that Ethan was here to ask about the accident, he
recounted the details carefully. “I was explaining the dos and don’ts to Mrs. Larson when I noticed her
friend sneaking around the parachute equipment. I didn’t think much of it because at the time, I just
thought she was curious about the equipment, like our other customers usually are.”
If the coach hadn’t been questioned by Ethan, he would’ve forgotten all about it.
After interrogating the coach, Ethan went back to Janet’s ward to take care of her.
Beal and Johanna stayed in Janet’s ward, too. They didn’t ask how the investigation was going until
Janet was taken to the doctor’s office for a follow-up examination.
“I have a suspect.” Ethan went straight to the point.
Now that he had pieced together the puzzle, he felt that Lila was very likely to be the one who
tampered with Janet’s parachute.
When Lila answered Janet’s phone earlier, she kept crying profusely and refused to even finish a
sentence.
Of course, Ethon wouldn’t just trust in this womon’s words. He went to the word of Jonet’s cooch, who
wos olso severely injured in the occident.
The cooch’s foot wos in o bulky cost. Knowing thot Ethon wos here to osk obout the occident, he
recounted the detoils corefully. “I wos exploining the dos ond don’ts to Mrs. Lorson when I noticed her
friend sneoking oround the porochute equipment. I didn’t think much of it becouse ot the time, I just
thought she wos curious obout the equipment, like our other customers usuolly ore.”
If the cooch hodn’t been questioned by Ethon, he would’ve forgotten oll obout it.
After interrogoting the cooch, Ethon went bock to Jonet’s word to toke core of her.
Beol ond Johonno stoyed in Jonet’s word, too. They didn’t osk how the investigotion wos going until
Jonet wos token to the doctor’s office for o follow-up exominotion.
“I hove o suspect.” Ethon went stroight to the point.
Now thot he hod pieced together the puzzle, he felt thot Lilo wos very likely to be the one who
tompered with Jonet’s porochute.
When Lilo onswered Jonet’s phone eorlier, she kept crying profusely ond refused to even finish o
sentence.
Logically speaking, she was already a grown woman, not some child. Even if she was scared out of her
wits, she wouldn’t have cried that like. It was more likely that she was deliberately stalling him,

Beal seldom got angry. He was usually gentle and non-confrontational, and even when he was angry,
he usually wouldn’t show it on his face. But now, he looked absolutely enraged. “Since you have a
suspect, let’s call the police. I doubt anyone in Barnes would dare to go against the White family.”
Ethan pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. After all, he hadn’t questioned Lila yet.
“I’ll tell you who it is when I come back.” After saying that, Ethan pulled Lila’s skydiving coach aside for
a talk.
At this time, Lila was sitting on a bench in the corridor, crying her eyes out.
“She’s my number one suspect right now.” With a cold look in his eyes, Ethan jabbed his thumb in Lila’s
direction. “Repeat what you said to me just now.”
The coach reiterated that she saw Lila tampering with the parachute.
When she heard the coach’s claim, she stood up immediately.
“What the hell are you talking about? It wasn’t me!”
She denied vehemently, almost without thinking.
Panic seized her. She didn’t expect that someone would witness her crime.
The coach stood her ground firmly. “I’m not the only one who saw you. Mrs. Larson’s coach can also
testify to it. If you didn’t tamper with it, why were you standing so close to the parachute equipment and
even fiddling it?”
Ethan locked eyes with Lila and said ominously, “We need an explanation, Miss White.”
Lila took a step back, fear written all over her face. The two coaches had seen her. She couldn’t deny
that she didn’t tamper with the parachute now. But she didn’t do it with her own hands…
Facing the serious gaze from Ethan, Lila bit her lower lip and explained in an aggrieved tone, “I… I did
check her parachute and saw that the strings had been tampered with. But I didn’t do it!”
Well, at the very least, she didn’t break it with her own hands!
She wasn’t the one who started all this.
Ethan narrowed his eyes at her. Through gritted teeth, he demanded, “Then why didn’t you tell
anyone? You’ve skydived before. You should’ve known that Janet could’ve been killed!”
