Rural Belle & Three Heirs

Chloe was always warm-hearred, she jumped in and help; she wasn't one to just stand around.

When she saw the little girl calling for help, she didn't hesitate. She sprinted to the deep end of the pool, ready to help.

Rena, who was right beside her, grabbed her arm. "Chloe, hold on! The deep end of the pool is really dangerous. Let's get someone to help."

Chloe paused for a second, then shook Rena off. "There's no time. Can't you see she's about to drown?"

"Rena, you and Philip go get help. I'll save her. I'm a strong swimmer, trust me." With that, Chloe dove into the water, swimming fast towards the deep end.

Although the deep end of the pool could be dangerous, Chloe was a strong swimmer and should be able to handle it. However, she had already done several laps with Rena and Philip and was starting to feel a bit worn out.

Saving someone now would be exhausting.

But seeing the little girl still struggling, Chloe couldn't think about anything else.

She swam to the girl and lifted her up.

In the panic, the little girl clung tightly to Chloe's arm. Chloe tried to push her away, but the frightened girl held on firmly and wouldn't let go.

Anyone who knew how to swim understands that when rescuing someone, if the rescuer got tangled up with the person being saved, both could end up in danger.

Chloe, who was already petite, struggled to rescue the girl in the deep end. With the little girl gripping her arm tightly, Chloe found it nearly impossible to pull her out of the deep water.

Seeing both of them starting to sink, Chloe didn't have time to think. She slapped the girl, and in her panic, the girl finally let go of Chloe's arm.

Chloe quickly grabbed the girl's neck with one hand and used the other to paddle forward, using all her strength to drag the girl along.

The scene in the pool drew a large crowd. Chloe desperately dragged the girl forward, but before reaching the safe area, she was already exhausted.

In an instant, both Chloe and the girl started sinking.

Underwater, Chloe tried to hold her breath, but the girl's struggles made her swallow several mouthfuls of water.

Chloe wanted to surface, but her legs were so tired that she couldn't muster any strength.

Seeing both of them sinking to the bottom, the poolside erupted in cries of alarm. Chloe felt desperate; in that moment, she felt like she was seeing the Grim Reaper. She, Chloe, the heiriess to the Davis Group, drowning in a swimming pool like this would be a disgrace.

Chloe tried to save herself, but the girl in the water was becoming more frantic. Just as they were about to sink to the bottom, the pool's lifeguards jumped into the water. When a large hand reached out to Chloe, she felt a glimmer of hope.

As soon as Chloe surfaced, she started coughing violently, having been underwater for a while.

With each intense bout of coughing, her awareness faded into a foggy emptiness. She heard Philip and Rena's voices.

"Chloe, stay with us...."

Chloe didn't want to sleep, but her physical exhaustion forced her to close her eyes for a brief rest.

At that moment, a sharp female voice pierced through the chaos, followed by a woman grabbing her arm forcefully. "Murderer, you're a murderer! You tried to drown my niece. How shameless can you be..."

She shouted. "Call the police! This evil woman tried to kill someone. Call the police!"noveldrama

The woman's shrill voice drew everyone's attention. Chloe struggled to open her eyes and saw Sophia's extremely angry face.

Rena stood by Chloe, preventing Sophia from grabbing her.

She yelled at Sophia, "Get lost! Are you crazy? My friend risked her life to save your niece, and now you're accusing her of trying to harm her? You are the shameless one!"

"Exactly! I've never seen anyone like you. My friend saved your niece, and instead of being grateful, you accuse her?" Philip also defended Chloe.

If there weren't so many people around the pool, Philip would have punched Sophia in the face.

But Sophia continued to pull at Chloe, constantly slandering her. "Are you saying she saved my niece? I don't believe for a second she's that kind-hearted. Everyone here was a witness-when my niece was in trouble, she was the one who shoved her into the water. This wasn't an accident; it was intentional. I'm calling the police, and I'm not backing down."

Rena and Philip couldn't stop the crazed Sophia, and Chloe, who had just swallowed water, felt completely unable to breathe.

With Sophia's pulling, Chloe vomited a mouthful of water and then fell unconscious.

Meanwhile, the girl rescued by the lifeguards also lay unconscious by the pool, having swallowed water. But Sophia, her aunt, kept clutching Chloe, as if her niece's life meant nothing.

Catching Chloe, the "murderer," was the most important thing for her.

Medical personnel arrived, followed by the police. Soon, the girl who had swallowed water and the unconscious Chloe were taken to the hospital.

Sophia clung to a police officer's sleeve, tearfully recounting her story.

She cried, "Officer, my niece isn't well. The doctor said she needs more physical

exercise, so I brought her to the pool today.

I never expected that woman, Chloe, to slap my niece into the water when she saw her alone. That's attempted murder.

Yes, I had some conflicts with Chloe before, but that's no excuse for her to try to

murder my niece. My niece is just a child-she's innocent. Officers, you have to seek justice for her. That murderer should be locked up for life."
