The human figure was getting closer. Suddenly, Nicole caught a cold light quickly. She immediately
held Jared’s hand to return to the water surface.
Jared knew what Nicole was trying to do. He quickly swam toward the water surface.
But the person was too fast. He caught up with them in just a few minutes. Nicole was surprised. ‘This
shouldn’t happen with my capability. How did he catch up so easily?’
Just when she thought about that, the person tried to slash Nicole’s oxygen pipe. She turned around to
dodge it cleverly. There was a cut on her oxygen cylinder.
The person attacked Nicole again. Nicole grabbed his hand and took away his weapon. The attacker
turned around and tried to escape as he noticed the situation was unfavorable to him. Nicole
responded in kind. She cut his oxygen pipe with the dagger. The outlaw desperately swam toward the
surface as the water bubbled.
Nicole did not bother him. She went to deal with another person. Nicole fought with the outlaw using
the dagger in the water. She cut off the outlaw’s finger in just a short while. Suddenly, the water around
them became red with blood.
Nicole and Jared dealt with the rest of them quickly. They then swam toward the water surface actively.
Before they reached the surface, a shark carried one of the outlaws covered in blood in its mouth and
swam up to the surface. A huge splash of water could be seen.
Jared and Nicole did not dare to watch what was happening. They swam toward the shore quickly. A
speed boat was speeding toward them.
They got onto the speed boat safely.
“Quickly return to the shore,” Jared ordered as he glanced at the shark behind them.
The speed boat speeded toward the shore. The shark was chasing after them.
“Get up!” Jared took over the driver’s seat. He pressed the accelerator pedal. The speed boat
accelerated quickly. It then leaped forward on the water’s surface. The shark was left behind.
After they reached the shore, Jared immediately carried Nicole out of the speed boat.
“I can walk.” Nicole tried to free herself from Jared.
“Don’t try to be tough. You’re hurt.” Jared glanced at Nicole’s calf that was hit by the shark.
Nicole only realized she was hurt when she looked at her calf with Jared.
She knew Jared would not let her walk. She then stopped moving. She let Jared carry her to the
lounge.
Jared put down Nicole. He had someone to get them a first-aid kit. He quickly treated Nicole’s injury.
He then drove her to the hospital.
The doctor carefully treated Nicole’s wound in the hospital’s VIP ward.
“Will it leave a scar?” Jared gave the doctor treating the wound a serious look.
“It might leave a shallow scar.”
Before Nicole could say anything, Jared said seriously, “No. You must get rid of the scar by any means.
It can’t leave even a tiny scar.”
The doctor was in a cold sweat suddenly. ‘Every wound leaves a scar. Mr. Johnston is giving me a hard
time.’
Nicole could tell it was difficult for the doctor to do that. She said, “It won’t leave a scar. I have a way.”
She then glanced at Jared confidently. The doctor looked at Nicole with surprise. ‘This young lady is
good at lying.” “It might hurt when I put medicine on the wound later. Bear with me.”
Jared immediately stretched out his hand for Nicole. “Bite my hand if it hurts. You got hurt because I
didn’t protect you well.”
Nicole was thankful as she smiled. “Don’t cry when I bite your hand later.”
