“What?”
Eric’s face darkened instantly.
Selena’s biological father?
Eric knew about Selena’s past, so he knew that she was not dependent on her relatives.
In the beginning, Eric proposed to help her find her relatives, but she refused.
From then on, Eric did not try to look for anyone because he was afraid it would backfire.
Selena’s father knew that his daughter was in dire straits, but watched helplessly and did not show up. This only meant that it made no difference whether such relatives were present or not.
Unexpectedly, this person came to Eric’s door on his own initiative.
He even wanted to harm his own daughter.
Eric was instantly shrouded in a layer of gloom.
“Who?”
“The woman said she hadn’t seen him before, but someone called her and gave her a sum of money to find a chance to attack Madam. We checked and found that the other party was very cautious. They used cash in Euros and banked it into the woman’s account. That phone number is now out of service.”
Looking at Eric’s expression, the bodyguard felt his heart pounding.
They originally thought it was just a bad incident caused by Jennifer’s jealousy of Selena.
They did not expect that Selena’s father would be involved behind the scenes.
“The one who can get in touch with her is probably one of the guests. I was too careless.”
Eric rubbed his temples, but soon, his fatigue subsided.
“Get the hotel to retrieve all the surveillance to see who is also on the phone when that woman is on the phone. Don’t let anyone go. Also, reorganize the guest list and investigate their backgrounds. Find that person as quickly as possible.”
Eric’s tone was terribly cold.
The bodyguard nodded and left immediately.
In the morning, the sky was bright, and it was very warm.
The light came in through the window and shone on the ground.
When it was almost dawn, Selena’s fever subsided, but she was still in pain. Thus, she began to bite her lips in pain.
It was not until morning that her reaction eased a little.
The doctor came in the morning and gave her an injection, which had a sedative effect, so her complexion gradually improved.
The doctor also gave Eric an injection, but Eric’s reaction was unexpected.
He did not fall unconscious from the ugly fish’s toxin, nor did he have any adverse reactions such as a fever.
It was probably because he was very strong.
At noon, Selena woke up.
She opened her eyes and felt something was wrong.
She raised her arm and saw that the wounds were bandaged.
Those terrifying images flooded her mind, and she seemed to be able to feel the suffocation and despair in the pool.
When Selena moved, she felt someone wake up next to her.
Eric only took a nap for a while before Selena woke up.
He raised his head lazily and had a look of concern in his eyes.
“Selena, what’s the matter? Does it still hurt?”
Selena looked at him for a few seconds before she shook her head.
Her eyes were slightly red.
Eric pursed his lips and gently held her in his arms, avoiding her injury.
“I’m sorry. I was too careless. This won’t happen again in the future.”
He was guilty and blamed himself.
