Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 89: The Sullivan Group's Successor's Mother
For a moment, the maid was silent.Then she blurted out, "It was Miss Bennet!"
The maid pressed her face into her hands and forced herself to sob even harder.Then she turned her tear-stained face up to Victor and whimpered, "Recently, whenever I go up to Miss Bennet's room, I always hear a man's voice.She so rarely comes out that I started to get worried… I just asked her if there was something wrong, but she started shouting at me.She didn't even give me a chance to speak or explain.She accused me of being nosy and then…"
Rachel cocked an eyebrow as she listened to the maid's nonsense story.But she had to give her credit where it was due; the maid did give a very convincing performance.If she hadn't known that the maid was lying, she would have been inclined to believe her.
Not to mention that the maid had somehow willed herself to be able to sob the way she was.
It made her look even more pathetic.
The maid rubbed her palm across her cheek to try and dry off some of the fake tears, then clasped her hands in front of her body.
"When Miss Bennet came home just now, I asked her if she'd had any dinner.I knew she'd been out the entire day and I just wanted to make sure she'd had something to eat.I even offered to make her some food.I think Miss Bennet misunderstood what I saying, because she slapped me out of the blue.She… She also said…"
Victor's gloomy face pinched in irritation.
"What did she say?" he asked coldly.
"She also said that she is the mother of the Sullivan Group's successor.She told me that if she so wanted, she could have me thrown out the Sue Garden, and ensure that I would never be able to find a job or even a place to stay in Apliaria again."
The maid turned to Rachel and pathetically kowtowed to her.
"Miss Bennet," she started in a trembling voice, "please forgive me! I know I was wrong.I promise I won't interfere again.Forgive me, please…"
Victor's expression had been getting angrier and angrier the longer the maid had been speaking.
By now he was gritting his jaw so tightly that the veins in his neck and forehead were bulging.
His dark eyes were glinting with malice, and he barely seemed to be holding onto his temper.
"The mother of the Sullivan Group's future successor?"
Slowly, he turned his head and sneered at Rachel.
The maid immediately stopped crying once Victor was no longer looking at her.
A sly smile curled the corners of her lips.
Lukas could see that the situation was rapidly becoming sour.
He couldn't let Victor lose his temper with Rachel because of some story the maid had spun, Rachel was pregnant with Victor's child after all.
Lukas felt he had to speak in her defense.
"Mr.Sullivan, there has been a great misunderstanding. Miss Bennet was just-"
Before he could finish his sentence, Victor strode forward and grabbed Rachel by the chin.
