Had Jennifer been hiding here for a few days?
Selena’s face was pale and extremely glum. She was a little afraid of heights, yet she was hanging over a piece of glass, with ugly carnivorous fish waiting to eat her.
She could not calm the fear welling up in her heart.
Jennifer smiled smugly and appreciated the look on Selena’s face. It was not an empty threat.
She was wearing a bathing suit and walked to the switch that came next to her bare thighs.
Selena shook her head in shock.
She tried to stop Jennifer but to no avail.
Her legs and arms were bound, and she struggled to stand up.
Jennifer did not give Selena a chance to speak at all because she gagged Selena’s mouth.
Jennifer looked like a different person as if someone had triggered all the malice hidden in her.
The next second, Selena felt her body drop into the swimming pool.
Selena panicked and felt that it was the end of the world.
The water level in the swimming pool reached the highest level. The fish saw their prey and swam over as fast as they could.
Out of the corner of her eye, Selena thought she saw someone barging in.
However, her ears were flooded with water, so the sounds were muffled. She could only feel the pain from suffocation.
Soon, a fish pounced on her. She felt her ankle being stabbed, and the sharp pain made her tremble all over.
At the same time, another fish bit her arm.
A chunk of flesh dangled on her arm, and the blood instantly dispersed into the water like silk.
Selena felt like she was thrown into an abyss. The coldness and stinging pain made her convulse, tremble, and shudder.
The sharp-toothed ugly fish seemed to have found delicious food and rushed over to Selena. The fear in Selena’s heart magnified infinitely in an instant.
As soon as Eric came in, he saw this scene.
Selena was dropped into the swimming pool, while Jennifer had an indescribable expression of joy on her face.
A trace of panic flashed across her face when she saw Eric.
“Mr. Ferguson…”
The next second, Eric took a step forward, raised his foot, and kicked her hard in the chest.
Jennifer immediately fell to the ground. Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth. She was in pain and could not get up.
Before she could say anything, Eric plunged into the water.
Soon, the other bodyguards held Jennifer in place.
Someone had already entered the water at the same time to help Eric save Selena.
Jennifer watched as Eric lifted Selena out of the water. The fish jumped at Eric.
However, Eric was determined to protect the woman in his arms and fearlessly lifted her out of the water.
There was already a light red ripple on the surface of the water.
The smell of blood permeated the surroundings, stimulating the sense of smell.
Without their prey, those fish began to bite Eric and would not let go.
Those bodyguards quickly lifted Selena ashore before Eric turned around and punched the water around him.
His counterattack was so sudden and violent that the ugly fish fled in all directions.
However, Eric’s body was tense. His face was dark, and his veins were bulging. He gathered all his energy and quickly jumped out of the pool.
The bodyguard was checking Selena’s injuries and untied the tape on her mouth and the ropes on her hands and feet.
