Jarrod raised his hand to push Jamie away. But Jamie rushed back to his side and hugged him with all her strength. With tears streaming down her face, she said, “Jarrod, I can't bear to watch you die."

Jarrod had always been susceptible to her care. But for some reason, he felt nothing at this moment but disgust.

He forcefully pushed her away, making her fall to the floor with a loud thud. But he didn't even look at her.

Something hit the water with a mighty splash.

Before anyone could stop him, Jarrod jumped into the water without hesitation.

The piranhas, which were about to snap at Nicole, found themselves momentarily startled by the towering waves caused by Jarrod.

Nicole's wounded lower leg continued to bleed, and the scent of blood seemed like a sumptuous feast for them.

ALL of a sudden, the piranhas revealed their sharp teeth and charged back at Nicole with ferocity.

Jarrod forcefully smacked the river's surface and shouted at the top of his lungs to draw the piranhas' attention.

However, with Nicole's bleeding and motionless condition, she became an even more irresistible temptation.

Three fish leaped into the air and bared their sharp fangs.

Bang! A resounding noise echoed.

The yacht's bodyguard raised a spear gun and fired a shot not far from those fish. Startled, the piranhas failed to bite Nicole.

But it was only a fleeting solution. The bodyguards could not afford to shoot recklessly, as hitting someone would likely cost them their lives.

The piranhas only settled down for a brief moment and then geared up for a comeback.

With his veins bulging on his forehead, Jarrod drew a sharp dagger from his belt.

This was a habit he had picked up abroad. He always carried a concealed, custom-made dagger for self-defense.

With his teeth gritted, Jarrod swiftly slashed himself.

Hiss! The sound of the blade slicing through flesh was clearly heard.

Jarrod cut into his own arm. However, he felt that one wound was not enough. So, he raised his hand with determination, ready to make another incision!
