Captivation: Want Nothing But You

"What's wrong, Alice? Have you come here to remind me that I have a bone to pick with you? You can't wait for me to get even with you, huh?" Rachel said while peeling an orange on the table, and took a bite.

It tasted a bit sour, but it wasn't bad.

"Rachel, don't think you can intimidate me with these words! You wanna get even with me? There's no reason to do that.You did all those shameless things yourself, and they have nothing to do with me! Don't try to use me as an excuse for your actions!" Alice said hurriedly.

"Is that so?" Rachel asked.

The tone of her voice was casual, but to Alice, Rachel's tone was intimidating enough to pressure her, and it caused her to feel a bit restless.

"Of course!" Alice sprang to her feet.

"I'm only here today to deliver Victor's message.He said that the Sullivan Group has no use for an employee who would ask for a sick leave for a long time.Every employee of the company is qualified to enjoy fifteen days of paid sick leave, but you are an exception.That's why, if you don't go to work tomorrow, consider yourself resigned.You filed a sick leave, and you haven't gone to work during the past few days.Victor said that it was considered an absence.If something similar happens again, you are automatically considered as resigned."

With that, Alice grabbed her purse and said, "Anyway, I have more important matters to deal with.Goodbye!"

Rachel just sat there, peeling another orange and smiling.

"Bye, then."

Annoyed, Alice glared at Rachel before walking out of the door.

At the same time, Abby came over from the kitchen.

When she noticed that Alice was leaving, she paused for a moment, and said, "Miss Bennet, is Miss Jenkins not staying for lunch?"

"What? Oh, she's not.She wouldn't dare.She would be too guilty to eat anything with me on the same table." Rachel chuckled.

She then handed the orange she had just peeled to Abby and changed the topic.

"Try it.It's delicious."

Abby accepted the fruit, and muttered, "Is it delicious? Mr.Torres brought these oranges this morning.He tasted one and said it was too sour.He also mentioned that he's never buying an orange from that shop again."

After saying that, Abby took a piece and chucked it into her mouth.

Seconds later, her face was distorted because of how sour it was.

Unable to withstand it, she quickly spat it out.
