Captivation: Want Nothing But You

CHAPTER 13: THE CULPRIT SHOULD KNEEL AND APOLOGIZE

“You mean…” the manager asked nervously.

One look from Victor and Ivan immediately understood what he meant. Ivan took out a black and gold card and tossed it to the manager. “Do you recognize this card?”

The manager caught the card and took a closer look at it.

When the manager saw what it was, his legs grew weak. It was just a card, and yet it felt so heavy in his hands.

Everyone knew who Victor Sullivan was. The Sullivan Group’s business operations spanned across the entire country. It had a deep foundation and the company had been passed on for generations. Its position in Apliaria—let alone the whole country—was unshakable. And as for Victor himself, he was the new CEO of the Sullivan Group. He had only been in this position for two years, but he had brought the company to unimaginable heights with no sign of slowing down.

That was why when the manager recognized him the moment he saw him, and he became very respectful. That respect was given in deference to Victor’s title as the Sullivan Group’s CEO.

But upon seeing the card, the manager believed that respect was not nearly enough for a man of Victor’s standing.

This card was unique in the world, for there was only one such card.

Even if Victor wasn’t the CEO of Sullivan Group, this card was powerful enough to make all the stuff of Crown Club listen to his command.

The manager swallowed hard, trying to suppress his agitation. He showed courtesy towards Victor by genuflecting before him. “Boss, your wish is my command. I will do everything in my power to accomplish your order.”

All the bodyguards were surprised by what the manager said, and then they all knelt down in unison.

“The culprit should kneel down to apologize.” A sinister look appeared in Victor’s eyes when he smirked at Rachel.

Right after he finished talking, Rachel felt a pang in her heart.

She wasn’t surprised to hear him say that, but it still made it difficult for her to breathe.

However, the grief she was feeling at the moment was not her own.

Rachel pursed her lips, and heard the deafening shout of the manager and the bodyguards.

“Have a good day, Boss!”
