Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Captivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 126 by Adolf Dunne

Ivan was quite surprised by Victor’s request. He looked up at him in the rearview mirror and said, “Did you leave something there, Mr. Sullivan?” “No.” Victor’s expression darkened at Ivan’s question. “Cancel all my appointments for this afternoon as well,” he said. Ivan glanced down at the time on his phone. He pursed his lips in surprise. It was still early afternoon. On a Wednesday. A working day. Victor wanted to cancel his appointments on a work day.

He must have heard wrong. Surely Victor wouldn’t want to cancel all his appointments for the day, just to go back to Sue Garden? He looked up at Victor in the rearview mirror again. He just couldn’t believe his ears. This was the first time in the two years he’d been working for Victor that something like this had happened.

“Yes, sir,” Ivan answered in as neutral a tone as possible, considering how excited and surprised he was. With all the appointments for the day cancelled, that meant Ivan also had the rest of the day off. How could he not be excited about that? Victor sat quietly in the backseat, tapping his fingers rhythmically against his thigh. His eyes were narrowed and he kept his gaze studiously out the window. The drive to Sue Garden was only an hour long, and soon, the Maybach pulled up in the open space near the front garden.

Today was the first time he’d come here at this time. Lukas was just coming down from Rachel’s room with a pile of plates. He was quite surprised when he saw Victor walking into the building. “Victor?” he said, barely managing to contain his surprise. Victor nodded in greeting. His eyes darted to the plates Lukas was carrying.

The corners of his mouth tipped down in a frown at the sight of them. It wasn’t because there were many plates, but because most of the food on them seemed untouched. It looked like Rachel had just taken a few bites out of them. Lukas looked from Victor down at the plates. “Miss Bennet told me to bring the food up to her later.

She didn’t feel like eating now,” he explained. “Has she tried to escape?” Victor asked. He’d been sleeping at the company since that day. He didn’t want to come back here, just so she could look at him with so much hate… He would never forget that look… And he didn’t ever want to see it again. It was the first time in years that he was avoiding a situation instead of facing it head on.

“No. Miss Bennet has been staying obediently in her room for the past three days,” Lukas replied. Victor gritted his jaw and narrowed his eyes. For some reason, that thought put him more on edge than it should. He started towards the stairs but then stopped and turned to Lukas. “Tell her to come downstairs.”

At first, Lukas froze in surprise. Then he hurried to do as he’d been told. He was scared that if he hung around for too long Victor would suddenly change his mind. Upstairs, Rachel was in her room writing in a notebook. For now, she was completely oblivious to Victor’s impromptu visit. So far in the book she’d compiled a short list: 1. Bennet Group’s shares. 2. Wallace, Tara. 3. Abby.
