Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Jack felt displeased by Rachel's sarcasm, but he concealed his emotion and continued, "Rachel, if you help Alice get her job at the Sullivan Group back, I truly believe that she'll be able to become one of its senior executives one day.She's talented and competent enough to accomplish that.And by then, I'm sure she won't forget how you helped her."

"Dad," Rachel blurted out.

Upon hearing the word "dad", Jack was stunned. Before he could react, she continued, "I just want to ask you a question."

Silence befell him before he answered, "What is it?"

"If I do ask Victor to change his decision about firing Alice from the Sullivan Group and letting her stay, he might ask me for my life in exchange.Knowing that, would you still want me to plead this case to him?" Rachel said flatly.

Such words were usually spoken with bitterness, but she sounded calm and casual about it.

Upon hearing this, Jack's pupils dilated in shock.

After a moment of hesitation, he slowly answered, "But that's impossible.Why would he want your life? There's no point in asking such questions, Rachel! I'm not asking you to trade your life for Alice's job .I'm just asking you to use a debt of gratitude-"

"Let me stop you right there,"

Rachel interrupted him as she stood up, and walked closer towards him.

While staring him dead in the eye, she said, "So, in your eyes, Alice's future is more valuable than my life, isn't it?"

Jack felt uncomfortable to hear her question.

To him, this question was so ridiculous that it felt like Rachel was just using it as an excuse not to help Alice.

Frowning, he said, "You have the capacity to help your sister.That's something you can do! What's the point in asking such an absurd question?"

A smile appeared on Rachel's face, and her eyes were as cold as ice.

"Very Good."

She turned around and sat back down on the sofa, crossing her legs.

After witnessing her non-compliant attitude, Jack was confused about what she meant.

His face darkened when he asked, "What are you trying to say, Rachel?"

Slowly, she looked into his eyes and replied, "You want me to ask Victor to change his decision regarding Alice's dismissal from her position in the Sullivan Group, right? That's a piece of cake.I can promise you that."

Upon hearing that, Jack's eyes lit up.
