Chapter 113: Before the Jump
Why had Sloane Sinclair panicked so badly the second she heard the helicopter?
Because this place was, for all practical purposes, still Sinclair ground.
She had no problem letting people use it for skydiving. The ones who came out here were adults with money, appetites for danger, and more than enough confidence in their own luck. If something went wrong, they were supposed to bear it themselves. That was the understanding.
Giselle Frost was different.
If some random rich thrill-seeker broke an ankle on Sinclair land, it would be annoying. If Giselle got hurt here, Victoria Frost would not care what waivers had been signed, what rules had been explained, or whose idea the jump had been. Her anger would still come down somewhere, and Sloane had no interest in standing underneath it.
That was why she had not originally planned to drive this close to the site.
