Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 94: Clara's Secret

"Of course," Clara lied, looking directly into Roger's suspicious eyes.She casually pursed her lips and said, "I just want to go to the restroom.Wait here with Riley."

"Alright," Roger said with a nod.

Clara smiled warmly at him.

"I won't be long.Don't give Riley anymore candy while I'm gone; wait for me to get back."

She looked between the two of them again then left the children's clothing shop.

As she exited the store, she unconsciously quickened her pace.She hurried over to the cafe where she'd previously seen Rachel.

Rachel was still there.

She was currently drinking a glass of fresh orange juice and checking the weather on her phone.

According to the forecast, it was supposed to stop raining soon.

Finally, she'd be able to continue with her shopping.

Once she'd finished her juice, she set the glass down on the table and gathered her things.

She picked up her shopping bags, and was about to leave the cafe when she noticed a very familiar woman approaching her.

She squinted at her, trying to remember who she was… Then she raised her eyebrows and said in surprise, "Dr.Jimenez?"

"Miss Bennet, it's nice to see you again,"

Clara greeted her.

Rachel smiled at her.

"I didn't expect to see you here.But it doesn't look like you're here to sit down and have a coffee."

Clara had left her bag and phone with Roger.

It was rather obvious she hadn't come here to buy anything.

"Miss Bennet, you're so observant,"

Clara smiled sweetly and looked down at all the bags in Rachel's hands.

"I took Riley to buy some new clothes.I saw you sitting here and thought I'd come and say hello."

She narrowed her eyes and tipped her head towards Rachel's bags.

"Are you shopping alone, Miss Bennet?"

"Sort of," Rachel replied with a blink.

"Are you...Are you leaving now?" Clara asked, starting to sound a little more concerned.

"I am.I've got something else I have to buy at another store," Rachel said with a nod of affirmation.
