Natalie pretended not to hear and continued walking forward.

Bursting with rage, Annie quivered. Having seen how everything unfolded, her two friends were

infuriated on behalf of Annie. They gave each other a look before they rushed forward and gave Natalie

a push with all their might.

Given that Natalie was already walking along the perimeter of the deck, the strength of two people was

enough to send her flying past the railing and straight into the water. She let out a screech before she

plopped right into the ocean.

All who witnessed her fall were flabbergasted.

Registering what they had done, Annie’s two friends were trembling in fear and they turned pale.

Annie, too, realized the gravity of the situation and fled the scene in a fluster.

At the same time, Stanley was feeling cheery as he just returned from the photography shop. He had

barely stepped foot on the deck when he bumped into Annie.

If it were any other situation, Annie would have pestered him and clung onto him tightly. However, she

looked at him in terror and took off at a faster speed. Following closely behind her were her two friends.

“What’s going on?” A mystified Stanley adjusted his glasses.

Before he could figure out what was happening, he heard a cry for help.

“Nat?” He recognized her voice. Looking around for the source of the cry, his face completely fell when

he realized the sound came from the bottom of the ship. He rushed forward to the edge of the railing to

take a look.

The sight that greeted him was Natalie flailing her arms desperately in the deep blue sea.

Perhaps it was because she had been struggling for a long time, she started to show signs of slowing

down. The strong currents in the ocean were taking a toll on her.

Stanley immediately tossed the photographs aside, hopped over the railing, and dived straight into the

ocean without thinking.

“Nat!” When he reached her, he caught hold of her neck and pulled her towards the ship with her face

facing upwards.

The only problem was that the ship was moving forward. Despite it moving at a leisurely pace, it was

undoubtedly moving at a faster rate than a swimming human. Stanley swam with all his might but the

distance between them and the ship only grew wider. Luckily, someone threw lifebuoys into the ocean.

As long as he could seize hold of the lifebuoy, they could be saved.

However, with the additional weight of Natalie dragging him down, reaching the lifebuoy was an uphill

task. Coupled with the fact that he had not swam in a long time, his leg started cramping.

Natalie took one look at his painful expression and figured out what was happening. She felt deeply

sorry and began to apologize, “I’m sorry Stanley, this is all my fault...”

“Don’t say a word! I’ll save you. Don’t worry,” Stanley attempted a weak smile as he continued

swimming ahead.

But the more he swam, the more his leg started to hurt. In the end, he was in so much pain that he let

out a scream and the both of them started to sink.

The people on the cruise were getting anxious watching them.

“I think that man is having a bout of cramps. Where’s the lifeguard? Why isn’t the lifeguard here yet?”

“What happened?” Andre heard the commotion from the tennis court on the second level and came

down to investigate.

With him was Shane, donned in tennis wear. His left hand was bandaged while he held a tennis racket

in the other hand. Beads of sweat trickled down the side of his face as he stood beside Andre. He had

no interest in whatever others had to say.

“Mr. Hill, there are people drowning!” Someone called out while pointing to the ocean.

“Drowning?” Andre’s brows furrowed as he strode over to take a look. When he identified the people in

the water, he was startled. “Dr. Quinn and his girlfriend?”

Upon hearing that, Shane’s nostrils flared and he rushed forward to confirm for himself. When he saw

Natalie slowly drowning, he dropped his tennis racket and dived into the water, swimming towards

Natalie and Stanley.

His actions stunned Mr. Hill, who hurriedly instructed his men to save them after recovering from the

shock.
