With a cold look in his eyes, Sebastian 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?” Sebastian 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 Sebastian, 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. Sebastian 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 Natalie could’ve been killed!”

Upon hearing that, Lila suddenly clamped her hand over her mouth. Just now, she was so busy defending herself that she had unwittingly spilled the beans.

“… ..”

Lila was at a loss for words.

“I just forgot to mention it to her coach. Besides, why are you all looking at me? Even her coach didn’t notice it!”
