    Captivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 140 by Adolf Dunne


    "Why is she here?” Victor turned around and asked Lukas in a frigid tone. “Miss Schultz didn''t say.


    She just insisted that she had something important to tell you,” Lukas replied quickly. His eyes full of


    me, Victor turned to look at Rachel. Under the intensity of his gaze, she forced a smile and said,


    “Don''t look at me like that.


    I''ve been locked up in here for days. There''s no way I could have done anything.” Victor remained


    quiet like always. His serious look said everything for him. Lukas recalled the grudge between Alicia


    and Rachel. He couldn''t help but worry that Victor actually suspected Rachel. He chose to stand up


    for her before things got out of hand. “Mr. Sullivan, Miss Be really hasn''t gone out. Except for


    last night.”


    At the mention of the previous night, something shed in Victor''s eyes, but it faded away just as


    quickly as it had appeared. Rachel, too busy cursing him silently, didn''t notice the warning there. “If


    you don''t believe me, you can check the surveince...” “Lukas, call the doctor,” Victor said before


    she could finish her words. Rachel thought she had gotten to the point where she couldn''t be


    affected by what Victor did. She was wrong. The rest of her retort got stuck in her throat. “The


    doctor?”


    "Yes," Victor said curtly. He nced at the gauze on Rachel''s right wrist as he addressed Lukas, “Tell


    the doctor to do something about her wound.” “No, it''s fine. I can deal with it myself.” “Like you are


    dealing with it right now?” Victor sneered at her, “If you don''t need your right hand anymore, I can


    help you get rid of it.


    You don''t have to go through all this. It''s too slow.” At his words, Rachel looked down at her wrist.


    She had wrapped the white gauze on it the previous night. She had been afraid that the ointment


    she had applied would rub off, so she hadn''t wrap it tightly. After working on decorating the room


    all afternoon. The gauze had loosened and was barely hanging on her wrist.


    Lukas thought he had heard wrong. He wasn''t a good judge of other people, but this was Victor.


    Lukas had watched him grow up to the man he was. Except for his grandmother, Victor had never


    cared about anyone else. He carefully analyzed the expression on Victor''s face and wondered if he


    had started changing his mind about Miss Be. “Is she downstairs right now?” Victor asked,


    interrupting his thoughts.


    Lukasposed himself, shaking away his wandering thoughts. He nodded and said, “I was afraid


    that she would disturb you here, so I asked her to wait in the living room downstairs.” “Okay.” Victor


    then walked out, with Lukas following closely behind. Rachel was left alone in the baby''s room


    again. She stood there and looked at the crib. It was hard to tell what was going through her mind.


    After a while, she turned around, ready to go back to her room to rest.


    As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Lukas, who had just left with Victor, walking


    towards her. “What''s wrong?” Rachel asked. “Miss Be, Mr. Sullivan asked me to tell you that you


    are free to go out from today onwards.” Lukas smiled. “But you aren''t to stay out for more than


    three hours, and you must always take bodyguards with you.” Rachel didn''t believe it. “He just


    decided he is not going to lock me in here?”


    That didn''t sound right. The Victor she knew had to have other motives in mind. Seeing the


    suspicion in Rachel''s eyes, Lukas couldn''t help but sigh silently. It was hard to rebuild broken trust.


    Not to mention it was Victor and Rachel he was dealing with. Calling them rivals didn''t even cover it.


    It was normal for Rachel to doubt Victor''s intention. He then remembered how Mrs. Sullivan used to


    smile, looking at Rachel''s photos.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    “Lukas, Victor has been so lonely since he was a child. Rachel is a lovely and considerate girl, and


    they will definitely make a perfect match together. When she marries Victor, he will get to have his


    own family. I need to see him live happily with someone before I can leave this world in


    peace.” A weird feeling surged in Lukas''s heart. “Miss Be, actually... He really cares about you.”


    As soon as he finished speaking, Rachel yawned and said in a hoarse voice, “Lukas, what did you


    say?”


    Lukas paused for a moment. “Nothing, Miss Be, Don’t worry. You cane and go now as


    freely as you want.” Looking at Rachel, he wanted to repeat what he had said. But as her bright eyes


    stared at him in anticipation, he somehow just couldn''t. : “Okay, I''ll go back to my room and rest


    then.” Rachel then walked past Lukas and headed for her bedroom.


    As she closed the door to her room, the smile on her face disappeared. She had heard what Lukas


    said clearly. The reason why she pretended not to hear it was that even the thought of it was just


    too ridiculous.


    He cared about her? That was just impossible. If he did, then he wouldn''t be Victor. If only the two


    of them remained in the world, and one had to sacrifice the other to save themselves, he would do


    it dly.


    Rachel looked down at her wrist and pulled off the gauze. The red marks were still there. Meanwhile,


    a woman downstairs turned towards the stairs as soon as she heard the


    footsteps. As soon as Alicia saw Victor walking down, her heartbeat became erratic. “Victor, I was at


    thepany looking for you, but Ivan said you weren''t there, so I came here just in case.” With her


    eyebrows arched and her eyes shining, she fiddled with the corner of her dress. The dress she had


    on was thetest style in town. Everyone hadmented on how radiant she looked in it, so she


    couldn''t wait to see Victor''s reaction when he saw her in it.


    However, with an indifferent expression on his face, Victor''s eyes only rested on her face for a


    second before he sat on the sofa opposite where she was. “What do you need to see me for?”


    Seeing his cold attitude, the small smile on Alicia''s lips froze slightly. That day, she had been pushed


    down by Rachel and rescued. Not long after, she was sent to the hospital. Alicia couldn''t remember


    what had happenedter, or what Rachel had said afterward.


    She wanted to ask if Rachel had said anything after she was gone, but she didn''t dare. She was


    afraid that if she asked about it, people would be suspicious and Victor would find out that she had


    lied. So she hadn''t dared to go near him. Even that day, she had still hesitated for a long time in her


    dormitory.


    She had finally decided toe because of her roommates’ encouragement. Out of the corner of


    her eye, she focused on the stairs subconsciously. She hadn''t seen Rachel since she entered. Wasn''t


    she in Sue Garden? “Nothing really.” Afraid that her answer would make him suspicious of her


    reason of being there, she suppressed her nervousness and said, “I came here to thank you.” Victor


    stared on, waiting for her to continue.


    Alicia looked at his face carefully. He looked normal. Her anxious heart was finally relieved. It


    seemed that Rachel hadn''t said anything, or maybe she had, but Victor didn''t believe her. “I thought


    about it carefully in the hospital.


    She didn''t push me. I fell by ident.” Alicia took a deep breath and pursed her pink lips. She


    plucked up courage and added tentatively, “Victor, don''t me Rachel. It was not her fault.” As


    soon as she said the words, a chuckle came from the staircase.
