Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 56: The Trip And The Birthday Party 

In the archive room, when Rachel heard she would be taking a business trip, she felt both excited and horrified.She only had two hours before the plane took off.

"Miss Bennet, why did they wait until last minute to tell you about this? What is going on? That's preposterous! You just drew your blood and you're still weak.You need rest," Abby said indignantly.

The public relations department guy had left in quite a hurry after informing Rachel about the upcoming business trip and he had offered no further explanations.

Frowning, Abby felt that there was something wrong today.

Strange things kept happening one after the other.

Sitting in front of her computer listening to Abby's ranting, Rachel was lost in her thoughts.

Something was up, she was sure of it! First of all, why would a lowly employee from the archive go on a business trip? And not just a simple business trip, but one that Victor, the CEO would also have to take.

It didn't even make sense.

She looked into Abby eyes shrugging.

"I have no idea."

"So… Are you going?" Abby asked, looking worried sick.

Rachel grabbed her purse, stood up and flashed Abby a fond but bitter smile.

"I don't think I really have a choice."

Indeed she didn't.

Not too long ago, Victor had forced her to do his bidding-drink that infernal wine, that was using the Bennet Group as leverage.

So it would probably be the same now.

As long as Victor held the power to make or break the Bennet Group, Rachel had no choice but dance to his tune.

Abby pursed her lips in disgust.

Rachel reached out and pinched the girl's cheek.

"Don't worry about me.I'll be fine.Victor won't really hurt me.He just wants to mess with me again, I guess.It's not that big of a deal."
