Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Rachel lowered her gaze to the critically-ill notice in Carson’s hand but didn’t take it.It looked as though she was trying to process a lot on her mind.

The doctor pressed, "Please, hurry up and sign your name here.We don’t have all the time."

Roger frowned, creases appearing on his forehead, as he looked at Rachel.

He moved his lips in an attempt to speak.

"Rachel, if…"

But before he could finish speaking, Rachel grabbed the pen and the notice from Carson’s hand and signed her name on it.

Seeing that she had signed it, the doctor rushed forward to collect it.

After confirming that the signature was correct, he swept a glance at them.

"You can just wait outside.We don’t know when the operation will be over for the time being."

With that, the doctor swiftly disappeared into the operating room.

When the door of the operating room was closed again, Rachel still had the pen in her hand.She stared blankly as she couldn’t get the words "critically-ill notice" out of her mind.

"Rachel?" Roger called with concern.

Rachel snapped back to reality.She closed the pen lid, then turned to look at Roger.Her lips slightly parted as she wanted to say that she was fine, but she couldn’t find her voice.

She tried to force a smile but failed.

It felt as though a boulder was on her chest, making it hard for her to breath.

‘What happened to me?’ she thought.

"Let’s go see Joe, shall we?"

Seeing Rachel’s expression, Roger suddenly felt a sense of powerless, as if he would lose her again if he didn’t say anything.He was not stupid.He understood the look on Rachel’s face.

Because he was once like that.

She might have just not realized it yet, but he could tell that her feelings for Victor were not as casual as she thought.
