Chapter 346
Valentin swam towards Ashley quickly. But Tyler, who had jumped into the water, pulled Ashley to swim in the distance.
Valentin was very worried. He knew that Ashley could swim, but being held tightly by Tyler and still in the water, it was hard for her to swim.
The river was clear, but it was also cold. Valentin couldn't care about how cold the water was in a rush. Suddenly, a faint strand of red blood floated in the clear water.
It was like blood dripping in water and being swooshed away.
Valentin suddenly narrowed his eyes, thinking, ‘Is Ashley injured?’
He became more serious and swam faster towards Ashley. He was obviously immersed in the cold water but was so anxious that it seemed like he was burning with flames.
Finally, he was about to catch up with Ashley and Tyler and could see her state more clearly. Suddenly, Valentin stopped.
He saw that Ashley in the water was pressing Tyler’s head and beating it violently.
The river around the two was almost red with blood.
And all that blood came from Tyler.
Valentin also vaguely heard that Ashley was cursing in anger while explosively punching Tyler, “How dare you pull me to jump together? Do you still want me to die with you? I'll let you enjoy yourself in the water now! Pain? Take the pain!”
The movement of her punching was so large that the water splashed all over the place and even onto Valentin’s head, who was not far away.
It could be seen how strong Ashley was and how hard she hit.
Valentin, who was splashed with water, fell silent.
Andrew, who had followed closely after him, fell silent as well.
Ashley was really pissed off. She didn’t expect Tyler to be desperate enough to drag her along and jump off the cruise ship. After jumping off, he still tugged her tightly to swim further away.
Luckily, Ashley could swim to stay out of Tyler’s control in the water.
Otherwise, wouldn’t she be drowned by him?
Ashley was angry and frantically beat Tyler.
Tyler was hurt a lot, wailing and flailing about.
Ashley grabbed him with one hand. Suddenly, her arm hurt violently, as if it had been stabbed by something sharp. Ashley frowned and looked around to see if something was in the water.
She thought, ‘Or is it Tyler?’
Watching around, Ashley turned to see Valentin and Andrew, who swam over.
Behind them were Lester, who had also jumped into the water, and a group of bodyguards, and George, who had driven his yacht over to meet her.
Because the cruise ship was so high above the water, it was difficult to climb it with bare hands, and a yacht had to be driven over to pick them up.
When Ashley was pulled into the water by Tyler, Lester and George quickly moved separately under the anxiety.
Lester took his bodyguards and jumped directly into the water to find Ashley as fast as possible while George prepared the yacht.
The bodyguards were well-trained and immediately tackled Tyler after they swam over at speed.
With the situation under control, Valentin’s worries receded slightly, and he stared carefully at Ashley. “Are you hurt?” Ashley said sadly, “I’m bleeding...”
Valentin suddenly tensed. “Where?”
The surrounding bodyguards also tensed up at the words. Ashley was the Pliskin family’s real daughter. It was a dereliction of duty on their part that she was injured on the very first day of identifying her family!
Under Valentin’s nervous gaze, Ashley raised her right index finger. There was a small wound on it that was so tiny that it couldn’t be seen without paying attention, and it was oozing out beads of blood.
“Look! My hand!”
The surrounding bodyguards fell silent.
They were about to die of fright, thinking it was a very large wound. Valentin, however, turned to look at Tyler with a gloomy face.
Tyler shuddered in fear, thinking, ‘This kind of wound that will heal immediately is also called an injury? What’s more, what does her injury have to do with me?’

Lester, who had swum over, heard Ashley say she was bleeding and almost died of worry, only slightly relieved to see the tiny wound on her upturned index finger.
But he was still angry and felt it was all because of Tyler.
Ashley held up her injured index finger as she talked to Valentin. She turned to see Andrew next to her, who hadn't said a word, and frowned, “Why are you in the water?”
Andrew’s eyes grew deep as he watched her in this total dependence on Valentin, but he smiled, “I’m practicing my swimming, can't |?”
Ashley didn’t say anything. At that moment, George came by in his yacht to pick them up. “Ashley, come up here!”
After getting on the yacht, Ashley looked over and realized that Jeremy and Matthew, who could swim, had also jumped off and were still soaking in the water, staring worriedly at her the whole time.
Ashley didn’t look at them too long and quickly looked away.
Getting back on the cruise ship, Karen and Brian ran over with worry in their eyes.
Karen put the washcloth over Ashley’s shoulder, her voice shaking. “Ashley, are you hurt? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?” Ashley shook her head quickly. “No, I’m fine.”
Brian was both worried and blaming himself. When Tyler threatened him with a scalpel earlier, it was Ashley who saved him, so she was hated by Tyler and dragged into the water.
Brian’s eyes were sharp as he watched Tyler pull out of the water, thinking he would never let Tyler go.
He thought, ‘And Cara... She won't be able to escape either.’
Karen was heartbroken to see Ashley soaked and immediately took her to get changed.
Holding a white towel, Colby saw Andrew coming out of the water and immediately went over to him in concern. “Mr. Banks.” Andrew shook his head with little expression.
His clothes were soaked, trailing long trails of water across the deck.
He closed his eyes, his eyelashes fluttering slightly, and his stunning face was so pale that it was nearly translucent.
Colby knew Andrew had just jumped into the water in his anxiety without thinking. Now, although he came out of the water unharmed, the shadow of his childhood still haunted him and had a psychological effect on him.
A few moments later, Andrew opened his eyes, his breathing calmed considerably, and looked toward Ashley. She had changed into dry clothes and was talking with Valentin...
Andrew narrowed his eyes slightly, but his expression didn’t change much.
Colby, however, was keenly aware that he was not in a good mood right now.
On the other side, Valentin stared at Ashley uneasily. “Did your wound on your waist crack?”
Ashley blinked. “Actually, it cracked a little. Just a little!”
She had just moved so much in the water that she could have easily cracked the wound.
Ashley still wanted to speak, but she suddenly trembled.
“Are you cold?” Valentin immediately held her hand.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Ashley also thought she had caught a cold, but the next moment, she felt dizzy and almost fell. She shook her head and said, “I feel a little dizzy...”
