Trapped By Tainted Love
Chapter 43: An Apology
The corners of Rachel's lips twitched and even Ivan couldn't suppress a chuckle.
'She really does look quite different.It's not just her look; she seems to have had a personality make-over.That's why it's so hard for people to recognize her"
Victor thought to himself, as he looked at Carson with apprehension.
"No, that would be impossible.No procedure of that magnitude could have such a short recovery time, right? By God, Rachel, you..."
Carson kept babbling as he walked around Rachel, examining every inch of her face and body.
"Mr.Scott, I assure you there is nothing of that sort.I simply changed my makeup routine.I decided to keep it as light as possible,"Rachel said shrugging and she took a step back to put some distance between her and Carson.
Arms crossed in front of his chest, Carson marveled, "Well I'll be damned! The clothes really do make the man...and a woman! Rachel, what were you thinking before, putting on so much make up? That stuff only covered your beauty! You look so pretty now that even I would..."
Carson felt Victor's stare ready to poke a hole on the back of his head.
He felt a shiver running down his spine and immediately stopped talking before he said something he would regret later.He swallowed hard and wiped off a drop of sweat that had formed on his forehead.
'What the hell was I thinking? I almost blurt out that I would love to take Rachel out.I need to get a grip! She is Victor's woman and I'm his best friend.Even if they broke up, she used to be his wife! She is off limits"
Carson berated himself.
"What's going on here?"
Victor glanced first at Ivy, who looked like a mess, and then fixed his eyes on Alice.
He didn't even acknowledge Rachel's presence.
"Mr.Sullivan..."
Alice started recounting the whole story, in a small, trembling voice, her eyes lowered all the time.
Although, she conveniently left out the part where lvy had poured coffee on Abby on purpose.
When she finished, Victor's face was set in a frown.He immediately turned to Rachel.
"What the hell were you thinking, spilling hot water on her?" he shouted angrily, pointing at Ivy.
"Apologize this instant!"
Rachel stared back at him boldly, one eyebrow raised.
