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!"
