Captivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 128 by Adolf Dunne

The moment Rachel stepped into the store, she was immediately overwhelmed by the sheer amount of baby products. There were so many different varieties, colors and shapes… But there was one brand in particular that caught her eye. It was enough to make her forget about her whining from earlier and focus on the shopping experience.

And just in case your little one likes to chew on things, the armrest is made from the latest anti-biting smooth foam material.”

Rachel nodded along as she listened. She could feel Victor’s eyes on her as he watched from the back. He wasn’t interested in what the shop manager was saying, he was busy studying her coat. Usually, he found black and green designs lame, but on her it was somehow spectacular. The color and cut perfectly matched her elegant demeanor in a way that seemed to create her own unique style. The shop manager kept showing Rachel product after product.
