Caroline changed into her swimsuit. Embarrassed, she walked slowly out of the room toward the

swimming pool.

Her swimsuit was more conservative compared to what the other women wore, but her long and slender legs showed beneath the skirt. They shone under the light, and she instantly took the spotlight.

Quite a number of men approached her and invited her to drink with them. Caroline had never liked being so close to strangers. So she tried her best to refuse them.

However, more and more people crowded around her, and she found herself helplessly surrounded by them.

Behind her, the water rippled in the swimming pool. There were lots of people in it. All of their

attention was on her thanks to the commotion. However, none of them tried to help.

Caroline took another glance at the pool and turned to look at the people who were surrounding her like vultures. When they spoke, she could hear all sorts of obscenities and vulgarities.

Eventually, she clenched her jaw and jumped into the pool.
