Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Following the direction of where Joey’s finger was pointing at, Lukas was stunned by the surprising development It took a few minutes before Lukas finally came to his senses and approached Joey. Glancing at the closed door beside them, he asked curiously, “Why do you suddenly want to enter this room?” Joey dropped his hand to his side and shrugged casually. “I remembered you mentioned that Mr. Sullivan once had a child. I’m just a little curious and want to learn more about the baby. Can I go inside the nursery and have a look around?” Staring at the door of the unused bedroom, Lukas’ mind strayed to the events that happened in the first six months following Rachel’s passing.

He unlocked the door and switched on the light in the room. In an instant, everything in the room came into full view.

first person Lukas thought of was Rachel because everyone knew how much the woman loved Victor at that time. “No, it’s not her.I’m sure of it.” Joey spoke with certainty because it was not his mommy’s handwriting. The words were engraved with a carving knife, requiring
