Captivation: Want Nothing But You

 "Ten seconds..."

Rachel would be lying if she said she I wasn't surprised.

"Roger, leaving Apliaria isn't a simple matter.Don't you think you're being rash about this?"

Roger looked at her straight in the eyes and smiled.

"Ten seconds isn't rash to me."

Rachel pursed her lips.

Roger would give up everything he had in Apliaria just to be with her.

Never in her wildest dreams did she think he could do such a thing.

Roger was the only successor of the Jimenez Group.

Ever since he came back, his father had gradually handed over the leadership of the company to him.

Everyone in the business circle knew Roger would eventually take over after his father's expected resignation in two years.

Only a foolish person would give up everything for a woman who might not even accept him in the end.

The Jimenez family had only two direct successors in line, Roger and Clara.

Clara was a doctor and wasn't interested in the family business.

If Roger left, their cousins would definitely fight their way to take over the company.

They might even force their father to hand it over to them.

Roger cared about his family so much.

He wouldn't be so quick to abandon his parents like this.

"Roger, you might've misunderstood."

Rachel thought he wouldn't choose her over his family, which was why she was taken aback by how easily he had decided to leave everything to be with her.

She wasn't pleased, relieved, or moved by it.

Instead, her heart sank.
