Trapped By Tainted Love

Rachel was currently with an employee of the administration department so she could show her around the headquarters of the Sullivan Group.

As they walked out of the elevator, the woman received a phone call and turned around to look at Rachel.

"Miss Bennet, Mr.Sullivan asked to see you now," she said, her voice betraying a hint of surprise.

That statement seemed to confuse Rachel quite a bit.

Not because Victor had asked to see her.

She knew that he had been on a business trip yesterday and she was certain that he would ask to see her as soon as he got back and heard the news.

She was confused because of the weird expression on the face of the lady standing in front of her.

The CEO‘s office could be found on the middle floor, the one with the best view.

Not anyone could visit this floor.

Only a handful of people were authorized, and security was really tight.

One had to possess the necessary key card or use their fingerprints to gain entry.

The lady that had been showing Rachel around was not that high–ranking, though, so, she had to wait for Ivan to come down and escort her.

When he finally arrived, he led Rachel into the elevator and pressed the button for the thirty–third floor, where the CEO‘s office was.

When they reached the office door, Ivan stopped and moved to the side.

He turned to look at her with a subdued look on his face.

"Mr.Sullivan asked to see you alone."

Rachel glanced at the closed door and couldn‘t shake off the feeling that something was wrong.

She turned to Ivan once again, pursing her lips.

"Ivan..." she started.

"Miss Bennet, please.Mr.Sullivan is waiting for you,"

Ivan interrupted her, showing that he wouldn‘t be giving her any answers.

Rachel got the message, loud and clear.She looked at his face a little longer, trying to find some clues as to what awaited her beyond the door.
