Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 40: Abby Was Forced To Kneel And Apologize 

"Miss Bennet, what’s going on with you?" Abby’s face paled as she hurried forward to Rachel’s aid.

"Are you feeling any discomfort? Would you like me to take you to the hospital?" Rachel waved her hand to interrupt her.

She was currently feeling nauseous, and her face made it apparent Moments later, she stopped throwing up, and then she gradually felt better.

The taste of vomit lingered in her tongue though.

"Miss Bennet, please sit down and have some water."

Abby helped her sit on the chair while handing her a glass of warm water.

Ever since yesterday afternoon, Rachel hadn’t eaten anything, so she didn’t throw up any food.

All that came out of her body was bitter, sour fluids.

Right now, her face looked so pale that it looked like she would faint at a moment’s notice.

Rachel took the water from Abby’s hand and drank it all.

Her throat moistened, and the bitter taste left in her mouth soon dissipated With tearful eyes, Abby said, "Miss Bennet, I think we should go to the hospital."

"I hadn’t eaten much for days.Maybe that’s why I felt nauseous when I smelled the food.I’m fine.I don’t need to go to the hospital."

Rachel’s voice was a little hoarse.

She glanced at the food and said, "Abby, could you please put away the food for now? I don’t have the appetite to eat at the moment.I’ll eat it later."

Upon hearing her say that, Abby hesitated.

She wanted to say something, but she decided not to speak her mind.

In the end, she just lowered her head and started putting the boxes away, holding back her tears.

All of a sudden, a phone started ringing.

With knitted brows, Rachel answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Rachel, why haven’t the files the head office requires been sent up yet? I’m giving you five minutes to accomplish this task!"

Ivy’s arrogant voice came through the phone.
