Chapter 1738


    The wind howled, its gusts threatening to blow everyone away.


    Even though Vicky wore a raincoat, the cold raindrops pelted her face and caused intense difort.


    Vicky bravely climbed down thedder.


    She knew she did not possess exceptional skills, and even a second’s dy could make her a burden


    to others.


    As the rain intensified, the ropedder swung in the raging wind.


    Beneath her feety the pitch-ck, chilling seawater. It was difficult to imagine that the once tranquil,


    beautiful sea could


    be so terrifying in moments like these.


    Gunshots echoed in the air, but Vicky did not look up. She tried to ignore the seawater below her and


    focused all her


    attention on climbing.


    Falling into the ocean meant being instantly swept away by the waves. With the fierce wind blowing,


    the torrential rain


    hampered Vicky’s progress.


    She used every ounce of strength to cling to the ropedder. Despite her utmost concentration, there


    were moments when


    her feet slipped, nearly causing her to fall.


    Bang, bang, bang!


    She heard several gunshotsing from the direction of the speedboat. She did not have to look up to


    know that Tyler


    was in danger.


    Vicky gritted her teeth, determined not to let herself be affected.


    She lost all sense of time. After what felt like an eternity, Vicky finally reached the side of the speedboat


    with painstakingly


    slow progress.


    Seeing her, Jade quickly reached out to help her—


    Bang! A bullet flew past them.


    Jade was hit in the arm, and her blood sttered onto Vicky’s face, only to be quickly washed away by


    the rain.


    Harry, who was controlling the speedboat, could not assist in this situation. Seeing what had transpired,


    he paled and


    urged, “Hurry and pull Ms. Shaw!”


    Jade clenched her teeth, persevering through the pain.


    Bang!


    Just as Jade was pulling Vicky onto the speedboat, she was hit by another bullet. This time, the shot


    came dangerously


    close to her heart, causing her to copse.


    There was no time to check Jade’s injuries at this point. Vicky had to move her to a safer spot on the


    speedboat to prevent


    her from being washed away by the waves.


    With Vicky safe, Harry immediately signaled to Tyler.


    However, Tyler did not choose to flee immediately and still had his gun trained on the steadily iing


    foes.


    He knew very well that if he did not deal with them, allowing them to continue shooting at the


    speedboat would put Vicky’s

    life in danger.


    The rain was too heavy, and the lighting on the boat was dim, making it difficult to discern what was


    happening on board.


    Vicky clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into her palms, but she was unaware of it.
