Sebastian’s heart sank when he heard this. Anxious to get more details, “Tell me everything. Now.”

“We… She… I don’t know… It happened so fast. This is all my fault. oh, God! This is all my fault…” Lila seemed to be scared out of her wits. She couldn’t stop crying nor could she speak coherently. Sebastian rubbed his temples and took a deep breath.

“Stop crying, will you?” Why was this woman so useless? She was wasting his precious time. It seemed that Lila didn’t understand what he was asking. She just kept sobbing into the receiver. Sebastian tried asking her again, but no matter what he couldn’t get any useful information out of her. He was so angry that he hung up the phone directly. Then he dialed his assistant’s number. His tone was bone-chillingly cold.

“Check all the parachute clubs in Barnes quickly and find out which one Mrs. Larson went to.”

The assistant was quite efficient. Minutes later, he called Sebastian back and reported, “Mr. Larson, there are only two parachute clubs open for business today in Barnes, and one of them was full this morning. The club you are looking for should be Mountaintop Parachute Club. They received two female customers earlier this afternoon.”

Sebastian gave the driver the instructions and the luxury car sped on the expressway towards the Mountaintop Parachute Club.

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. Sebastian 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 blame 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,” Sebastian grunted.

“Yes, Mr. Larson.” The manager nodded and bowed to Sebastian while wearing a flattering 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.”
