Chapter 2596 Hanging by a Thread
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.
Selena had already fainted. Her face was deathly pale, and it looked like she was on the verge of
dying.
Eric did not care about his injuries. He hugged Selena and shouted. “Get the doctor!”
He did not dare to move Selena and put her on the deck chair by the swimming pool.
After some thought, Eric started to do CPR on Selena, but it did not work.
Selena did not move one bit.
Eric’s eyes turned red, and the emotions in them were surging. He tried his best to restrain the fear he
felt in his bones.
After struggling for a few seconds, Eric touched her neck cautiously and felt a faint pulse. He breathed
a sigh of relief and relaxed his tense face.
Jennifer, who was on the side, was clearly shocked when she saw this scene.
Not only did Eric jump down to save Selena, but in order to protect Selena, he even stood in the fish-
infested water until Selena was out of danger.
His hand was also shaking violently when he was testing Selena’s pulse.
Did he tremble because he was afraid?
Fear flashed across Jennifer’s eyes.
That person told her that Eric was just acting with Selena and that he did not really love her.
How was it possible that Eric really fell in love with Selena?
The doctor came over quickly and was startled when he saw a drenched and injured Eric.
“Mr. Ferguson, you…”
“Leave me alone. Attend to her first!”
Eric ordered in a cold voice.
The doctor was very experienced and examined Selena immediately.
He quickly checked Selena's wound.
Her clothes were thin, so the wounds were extraordinarily gory with her flesh turned up. There were
more than a dozen wounds of various sizes. The most obvious ones were on her arms and legs, and
there were two more on her face.
The blood on her body seemed to be gushing from these places, but it quickly clotted.
It was such a tragic and gory scene.
Eric’s eyes were extremely dark. His expression was extremely gloomy, and there were turbulent
whirlpools in his eyes. He was forbearing and restrained.
The doctor quickly made a call and asked his assistant to bring up the medicine.
After giving Selena an injection and cleaning her wounds, he turned to look at Eric, who was sitting
silently waiting.
“Mr. Ferguson, your injuries also need to be dealt with.”
Eric raised his head slowly. “How is she?”
His voice was dry and hoarse as he spoke with difficulty.
If only he could be more careful, if only he could come faster, Selena might not be hurt.
Selena had always been tough. She had suffered so much, and he vowed to make her happy for the
rest of her life.
They were only married for a few days. Before their wedding was over, someone abducted her right
under his nose.
Eric hated the person who hurt her and hated himself even more.
He clenched his fists tightly, but his voice was exceptionally calm as he waited for the doctor’s reply.
The doctor paused and said, “Ms. Nelson has a lot of wounds. To avoid the spread of the toxins, we
have given her an anti-inflammatory treatment. You rescued her in time, so the wounds were not deep
and fatal. Ms. Nelson was probably holding her breath at the time because there were no signs of
drowning. Overall, she’s not in a critical condition.”
After hearing this, Eric’s face gradually softened. His fists tightened, and his face was still gloomy.
“Why isn’t she conscious?”
“These carnivorous fish are a special kind of sea fish that release a toxin from their teeth when they
attack, which has an anesthetic effect. In recent years, this kind of fish has been genetically bred by
Europeans, so that it can be used for cruel entertainment purposes. The antidote isn’t difficult to find,
so it’s not life-threatening. Your wounds also need to be treated, Mr. Ferguson.”
