Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 42: Rachel Strikes Back 

Alice and Ivy couldn't believe that Rachel-persistent and stubborn that she was- backed down so easily.

When they finally wrapped their heads around the fact that they had won that battle, both their expressions transformed into smug satisfaction.

"Thank you so much for that, Miss Jenkins!" Ivy said with a smile.Alice waved her thanks away.

"It was nothing! Who does Rachel think she is, anyway? Telling me what to do? How dare she?"

"Right? Miss Jenkins, I did as you asked.I gave her heaps of work to complete in really short deadlines, but it was no use! She finished everything in time.I really can't find any excuse to report her.I…"

"Then keep heaping on! Or shorten the deadlines even more.I don't care how you do it.Just do it," Alice barked, looking ready to burst from anger.

"I will," Ivy replied hastily.

"I'd better go back to work now."

Alice gave a dismissive wave of her hand, so Ivy turned to go.But before she even took one step towards the door, she shrieked in pain.

"Ow!"

Some sort of scalding hot liquid had been spilled on her, soaking the front of her shirt.

The skin underneath immediately turned red and hurt like a bitch.

Alice looked just as startled as Ivy, jumping backwards as some drops had splashed on her.She recovered quickly though.

"Rachel! What the hell are you doing?" she screamed, spittle flying from her mouth.

Holding an empty plastic cup in her hand, Rachel just stood there staring at Ivy coldly.

Alice's screams did nothing to wipe the calm look off her face.

Ivy flinched a little under Rachel's stare, but the pain fueled her anger until she wasn't able to think straight anymore.

She lunged at Rachel with her hand raised, ready to strike, shouting.

"You fucking bitch!" Abby's eyes widened in panic.

"Watch out," she called out to Rachel.
