Captivation: Want Nothing But You

The makeup artist put the final touches on Rachel’s makeup. She looked at Rachel in the mirror in satisfaction and pride. “Miss Bennet, I didn’t believe it when Eva said that you were exquisite looking. But now that I have seen you with my own eyes, I have to say that you’re the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. You’re so pretty, and your skin is so tender and fair.” ‘Eva?’ Rachel glanced at the makeup artist’s chest and saw the word “Gardenia” on her uniform.

She had been thinking about her plan tonight and hadn’t noticed that the makeup artist was one of Gardenia’s employees. But since she had met Eva only twice, Rachel didn’t know her that well. She just smiled. The maid walked over with a glass of warm water and said, “Yes, Miss Bennet, you are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. I think you will be the most exquisite among the ladies tonight!” Rachel looked at herself in the mirror.

She blinked a couple of times but didn’t say anything. There were only ten minutes left for the auction to start. Rachel stood up as she estimated that it was time to leave, and at the same time, someone knocked on the door. Ivan was at the door and was stunned for a moment when he saw Rachel. “Miss Bennet… Mr. Sullivan is busy with something, so he asked me to pick you up for the auction.” Rachel nodded, lifted the hem of her dress, and walked forward in her high heels.

After taking a couple of steps, she turned to look behind and realized that the maid wasn’t following her. She stopped and asked, “Aren’t you coming with me?” The maid looked up and asked uncertainly, “You want me to come with you, Miss Bennet?” “Yes.” An inexplicable look flashed across Rachel’s eyes.

The maid was an integral part of her plan tonight. Of course, she had to be there. The maid didn’t notice it at all because she was so immersed in the joy of just being able to attend the auction. “Okay… Then…” She got excited by just thinking about all the young men from wealthy families who would also be attending the auction.

But she suddenly realized something and looked down at her clothes. “But my clothes…” “Well, there are still ten minutes left. There’s a dress in the bedroom, and the makeup artist will help you apply some simple makeup,” Rachel said with a smile.

The maid smiled and nodded. As night fell, the moon’s reflection glittered like diamonds on the dark waters. The ship was

speed, and it was bright enough on board as if it was daytime The auction was in an indoor banquet hall on the highest floor, and the after-party would be on the open-air deck. By the time Rachel and the maid entered, many people were already present in the hall. Men in suits and leather shoes, women decked up in
