    Captivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 114 by Adolf Dunne


    Want To Leave


    Rachel stared at ra after what she’d said. After a while, she lowered her eyes and said softly, “Dr.


    Jimenez, I’m fine. I really am. Please. don’t worry.” ra was silent at first as she relived the memory.


    Then slowly, her mind resurfaced to the present. She looked up at Rachel and noticed how she kept


    habitually resting her hand on her stomach as she spoke and gestured around. “You’re about three


    months along now, right?” she asked, changing the subject. “Have you made an appointment for the


    prenatal check-up yet?” Prenatal checkup?


    This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    At first Rachel was confused, but then she remembered what the doctor had said when he’d told her she


    was pregnant. She was supposed toe in for a thorough check-up at the 12 weeks mark so they


    could get a sense of how the baby was developing, and if it was in good health.


    But with everything going on recently, Rachel had totally forgotten. ra noticed her lost, vacant


    expression. “I mean, you’re in a hospital,” she said gently. “No better time to get a check-up than now. I


    can make the appointment for you, if you like?” “I would like that. Thank you, Dr. Jimenez.”


    “Oh, it’s really nothing,” ra said with a shake of her head. “I’m just relieved that you don’t me me…”


    ‘What?’ Rachel thought, caught totally off-guard by what she said. “me you?” she said with a frown.


    “Why would I me you?”I lied to you about Roger… And when it came to your pregnancy… Miss


    Be, I’m so sorry was wrong of her to lie about her identity, but she hadn’t wanted Rachel to have


    anything to do with her brother. She’d just been trying to protect him. But since then, she’de to view


    herself as a selfish woman.


    families, he probably wasn’t going to be forced into an arranged marriage. He was fortunate enough to


    be able to choose who to love and who to marry. But ra hadn’t wanted that woman to be Rachel.


    Especially not with all the absurd things Rachel had done in thest two years.


    But not only that; Rachel was Victor’s ex-wife. And now, even after they’d got divorced, they were still


    somehow always entangled with each other. 1 ra knew how stubborn Roger was. And she knew that


    once he fell in love with someone, his heart would be set on that person. She had been afraid that


    Rachel would use her to get close to Roger if she knew she was in


    She was terrified that Rachel would ruin Roger, and thus, the family. She had felt the only choice she had


    left was to lie. But the one thing she hadn’t counted on was how important Rachel was to Roger, and


    how much he loved her. No one could have expected him to secretly resign from his position abroad and


    come back home once he heard that Rachel and Victor were divorced. “So that’s what you came to tell


    me then,” Rachel said with a chuckle. Her voice andughter brought ra out of her thoughts.


    “Well… Not exactly,” ra said gently, fluttering her eyshes like delicate butterfly wings. Rachel


    leaned forward as if to listen carefully. She rested her elbow on the armrest, cradled her intense gaze


    made ra feel instantly uneasy. She had to resist the urge to reach up and wipe her face, as if Rachel’s


    close inspection had revealed a speck of dirt.


    “Miss Be…”


    Rachel’s lips curved into a slight smile, and, mercifully, she looked away. “I don’t me you, Dr. Jimenez.


    Rest assured, you have nothing to be worried about.” ra had the vaguest feeling that Rachel had


    known who she was from the start. And she was right. But Rachel didn’t care why ra had lied about


    who she was.


    “Actually, I was a little surprised. I never thought a daughter from the Jimenez family would choose to be


    a doctor in the first ce.” Rachel had tipped her head back now and was looking up at the sky. Her


    eyes followed a ne that flew overhead, miles and miles above them.


    ra just stared at her as if she were caught in a trance. She had never known Rachel very well. But


    after only meeting her a few times, she could at least be of the opinion that she was very different to the


    rumors that had been spread about her.


    If ra was being honest with herself, Rachel was nothing like those rumors. “Well… What profession


    did you think I’d follow?” ra looked up as well, following Rachel’s line of sight to where the ne had


    been. It was gone, leaving behind only a trail of white cloud.


    Rachel looked down again, blinking her eyes to adjust them. Then she reached forward, picked up a


    tangerine from the table and peeled it thoughtfully. “I don’t know. I just thought being ady from an


    affluent family, you would have gone for an easier career.” She tore off a piece and popped it in her


    mouth. She chewed it then said, “I guess I just never pictured you as a doctor.” ra said nothing. All


    she did was smile.


    This wasn’t the first time someone had said this to her since she’d be a doctor. Rachel handed her


    a tangerine then stretched her arms up. Once she felt the muscles in her back pull pleasantly, she


    crossed her hands behind her head and rxed. “It must be nice to be a doctor. I suppose you get to


    save peoples’ lives every day. I’ve always said that it doesn’t matter what a person does, as long as they


    love it and are passionate about it.”


    “What do you want to do then?” ra asked and looked at her. Rachel nced casually over at ra.


    With a perfectly neutral expression she said, “I want to leave.” ra was stunned. “I thought…” “Yes?”


    Rachel replied, “You thought what?” “I thought you’d say you want to have this baby so you and Victor


    can be together again.” It was well known among the members of the upper-ss people that Rachel


    loved Victor very much.


    When ra had heard Rachel was pregnant with Victor’s baby, she’d thought Rachel would use this as


    a gateway into getting back with him. Rachel nearly choked as she said, “Get back with him?” “If you


    don’t want to be with him again, then why did you keep the baby?” ra asked. “I want a baby of my


    own. It’s as simple as that. I’m not going to use this child to get back together with him,” Rachel said.


    ra studied Rachel’s face, trying to tell if she was lying or not. But she could find no hint of anything


    else aside from the truth. Slowly but surely, her prejudice against the other woman was starting to


    dissolve. Suddenly, ra’s phone rang. She dug it out her gown pocket, checked the caller ID and


    answered it.


    Rachel sat quietly, listening to ra talk and to the chatter on the other end of the line. She heard


    something about “patient”, “blood oxygen” and “consulting room”. As ra lowered her phone from her


    ear, she looked apologetically at Rachel. “Sorry, I have to go… There is ast minute surgery discussion


    I have to attend.”


    “No worries at all. I know how important work is,” Rachel said calmly. ra slipped her phone back into


    her gown and stood with a nod. “I’ll see you then. I’ll ask one of my colleagues to arrange that prenatal


    check-up for you as soon as possible.” Rachel nodded.


    ra had only taken a few steps away before she stopped and turned around. “Miss Be,” us would


    have been great friends.” Then she left before Rachel could reply.


    Rachel turned in her chair and stared at the closed door after ra had left. She found it strange that


    she’d suddenly say something like that. But she didn’t let it worry her for long. Once she was certain she


    was alone again, she picked up the tablet and continued her search for information on Abby.
