Chapter 392 Calculated Risk Chapter 392 Calculated Risk +5 Free Coins She had heard from Stone and the others that Johnathan was highly vigilant. If someone tampered with his car, most people wouldn't notice, but Johnathan absolutely would-otherwise, he wouldn't have survived all these years.
Back when he was a mercenary, he stayed alive by being bold and meticulous.
Yesterday, Sierra had been too overwhelmed to think straight. Only now did she remember to ask about it "When you heard Quinn escaped, you were worried I'd be in danger. That's why you rushed out and got into the accident, right?" Just thinking about it filled Sierra with guilt.
Johnathan didn't want her to blherself. He spoke up. "That was part of it. But the other reason was-I was on the phone with a friend." His mind had been occupied with things from his parents' past. If not for that distraction, the accident might not have happened.
"So don't blyourself. And besides, I made that choice." If he hadn't swerved to avoid the pedestrians, he wouldn't have been so badly hurt.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSpeaking of it, Johnathan gave a faint smile. "Sierra, you've really changed me." When he saw the elderly man and the child crossing the street, he couldn't help but think of Sierra and her grandmother.
So, in that split second, he chose to swerve. Even though he knew he might be severely injured-or never wake up again.
But in that moment between life and death, he couldn't bring himself to treat life so indifferently anymore. Sierra already knew about this. Her smile was tinged with bitterness. "Mr. Yaeger, I'm just an ordinary person." When she learned Johnathan had been hurt trying to avoid hitting someone, her first thought was: if only he hadn't swerved.
At the end of the day, she was just human too.
She still valued slives over others.
Even if it meant living with guilt forever, she couldn't bear seeing Johnathan hurt.
1/4 Chapter 392 Calculated Risk +5 Free Coins Hearing the weight behind her words, Johnathan reached up and gently touched her face. "I know that if it were you, you'd have made the schoice. I didn't want you to look down on me. Besides, I chose the direction that would cause the least damage to myself." Normally, someone would steer right to minimize the impact on the driver's side.
But there had been a fuel truck to his right. If he'd hit that, the consequences would have been far worse. So in less than a second, he made the best decision he could.
As they spoke, Maddox and Shen Qingchi arrived with food prepared by the family's housekeeper.
2 Since Johnathan had just undergone surgery, he couldn't eat solid food yet, so everything was for Sierra. They had also cto update her on the investigation.
"We checked the surveillance footage. The person who tampered with your car was a retired race car driver." He had extensive knowledge of cars and had modified many before, so the sabotage was barely noticeable. On top of that, Johnathan had been distracted yesterday and didn't catch it in time.
"But that driver is already dead. We also looked into the two vehicles on either side of yours. Both were making standard deliveries on schedule. Everything seemed normal, and both drivers checked out clean." Still, it was all too coincidental-two trucks boxing in Johnathan's car at just the right moment.

They live nearby." In short, everything looked like coincidence. But all those coincidences together nearly got Johnathan killed.
Johnathan thought for a moment and said, "It wasn't Quinn." Sierra looked at him in surprise. It wasn't Quinn? Maddox nodded. "That's what we suspect as well."
"Quinn's been in custody for days. She wouldn't have been able to plan something this precise. It must've been whoever helped her escape."
Whoever it was knew Johnathan would worry about Sierra onde Quinn got away and had sabotaged the car in advance.
Distracted and on the phone, Johnathan hadn't noticed anything was off until it was too late.
2/4 Chapter 392 Calculated Risk Everything was methodical and connected-meticulously planned.
"Quinn must have someone backing her." Sierra glanced around at the others. "Is it the sgroup involved with the drugs?"
Hearing this, Johnathan immediately looked at her. "Have you noticed! anything strange lately?" Sierra shook her head. “No unfamiliar people have cto the school recently." +5 Free Coins
