Loving You In Secret

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 discomfort.

Vicky bravely climbed down the ladder.

She knew she did not possess exceptional skills, and even a second’s delay could make her a burden to others.

As the rain intensified, the rope ladder swung in the raging wind.

Beneath her feet lay the pitch-black, chilling seawater. It was difficult to imagine that the once tranquil, beautiful sea could

become 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 rope ladder. Despite her utmost concentration, there were moments when

her feet slipped, nearly causing her to fall.

Bang, bang, bang!

She heard several gunshots coming from the direction of the speedboat. She did not have to look up to know that Tyler

was in danger.

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 splattered 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 collapse.

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 incoming 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.
