Captivation: Want Nothing But You

With a loud thump, Rachel was pushed to the wall again.This time, however, she covered her lower belly with both hands before she hit the wall, protecting her unborn child.

Unfortunately, this prevented her from knocking Victor's hand away, and he grabbed her slender, white neck.

"Rachel, you're asking for this!" he bellowed in fury.

He ruthlessly squeezed his hand, tightening his grip on her neck.

The color on Rachel's face quickly faded, and she started wheezing in a struggle to breathe.

She raised one hand and feebly tried to pry his strangling hand off whilst protecting her lower belly with the other.

Victor's eyes were murderous, though, and he didn't let go.

After having a few words with the nurses, Clara left the operating room.

When she saw Victor strangling a feeble Rachel in anger, her face turned pale.

"Let go of her, now!"

If you don't stop, you will kill her!

"Good.Then, she can accompany her baby down there!"

Clara froze when she heard that.

‘'Accompany her baby?’' 

In her shock, her gaze shifted to the paper on the floor, and understanding dawned on her.Her eyes darted to Rachel, who was now making gurgling sounds.

Clara could tell she was dying.

"Victor, the baby is still alive!" the doctor screamed.

Victor stiffened when he heard that.

His grip loosened, and Rachel crumpled in a heap, passing out before her body hit the ground.

"What did you say?" Victor asked, turning to look at Clara with wide eyes.

His anger had already evaporated.

Clara didn't have the time to answer him, though.She ran past him instead and crouched in front of Rachel to check if she still had a pulse.

Her expression worsened, and she quickly took out her phone and rang the nurse station, asking them to send nurses over immediately to take Rachel to a ward.

The nurses arrived quickly, and Rachel was placed on a gurney and wheeled away.

A while later, Clara was standing beside a hospital bed, watching IV fluid drip from the infusion bottle into Rachel's arm.

She seemed lost in thought.

Suddenly, her phone rang out loud, jolting her from her reverie.

She took the phone out of her pocket and checked the caller ID displayed on the screen.
