Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 15: From A Rich Woman To A Woman In Debt 

Abby looked at Rachel and said, "I can prepare most of the dishes.If you’d like to eat something that I can’t make, I’m willing to learn."

Rachel rested her chin on her hand while eating the last piece of bread.

"I didn’t expect you could cook so well," she remarked.

It seemed that Abby wasn’t as clumsy as she had claimed.She just didn’t have enough confidence in herself.

"I like the bread," Rachel said as she pointed at the plate of bread.

Upon hearing that remark, Abby’s eyes lit up.

"If you like it, I can bake some more for you!"

"Sounds good."

Rachel nodded, tilted her head to the side, and smirked.

"Abby, did you learn to cook from your family?"

Abby lowered her head.

"I’m self-taught.I’m actually an orphan."

The sound of her voice portrayed her sadness.

Rachel was stunned.

The indifferent look in her eyes cracked a little, but it only last for a second and she collected herself before Abby could notice.

It wasn’t exactly sympathy, but she did feel sorry for the girl.

Rachel might be born in a rich family, but Sheila herself was actually an orphan, just like Abby.She grew up in an orphanage.

For as long as she could remember, she didn’t even have any recollection of what her parents looked like.  In all honesty, she didn’t care about knowing her biological parents that much.

But sometimes, she would rehearse in her mind what she would do if they appeared before her and told her that she was their daughter.

She’d probably ask them why they had abandoned her for so many years.

The dean of the orphanage had once told Shelia that she was left at the gates of the orphanage when she was still a baby, which meant her parents weren’t forced to abandon her; they just didn’t want her anymore.

Now that she recalled that time of her life, she didn’t feel sad about it.
