Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 211

After that, the two of them eventually fell silent, not knowing what else to say. At the same time, the people around were still talking about the dolphins. As she noticed that Roger didn’t respond for a long time, Rachel wondered if she had been too harsh on him. “Rog…” She moved her lips to call him, wondering if she should say something to at least ease the tension.

However, before she could say anything, a gentle smile suddenly appeared on Roger’s face. “You don’t need to say anything. I know,” he said calmly. Rachel was stunned, not expecting what he said. “Then why…” “Two years ago, when I saw the smile on your face when you said that you were going to marry Victor, I knew that he was the only one in your heart. However, even though I accepted that, I couldn’t get myself to give up on you.

In fact, I had been lying to myself the whole time, convincing myself that you only married him because I didn’t make any move back then.” Roger sighed deeply and let out a bitter smile. “I actually thought of finally letting go of you. When I came back from abroad and learned that you were pregnant with his child, I told myself that it might be the right time.” Meanwhile, Rachel pursed her lips, said nothing, and just listened. Roger chuckled as if mocking himself.

“But guess what? I still couldn’t. Since the first time I saw you in high school, I fell deeply in love with you. However, it was only until years had passed when I finally realized that. Unfortunately, it was too late. I really wanted to let go, but my feelings for you are buried too deep inside my heart.” When the maid heard Roger’s confession, she couldn’t help but take a deep breath before looking at Rachel’s face. She really thought that Rachel would be moved by Roger’s heartfelt speech.

But to her surprise, she didn’t seem to be touched at all. The maid couldn’t help but be taken aback. If a man like Roger confessed his love to her so affectionately, she knew that she would instantly get choked with her own tears. Then, she would run in his arms without any hesitation. On the other hand, Rachel remained very calm, as if what Roger had said meant nothing to her. To be exact, she couldn’t feel anything about it.

“Rachel, you don’t need to react. I’m not asking for an answer,” Roger explained, worried that Rachel might take it the wrong way. “You don’t need to feel burdened. Just think of it as me finally saying the things I had been dying to say. But still, I mean what I said just now. If you are unhappy with him, just say the word.

I can take you away. I know it is impossible for you to fall in love with me at once, and I know how hard it is to let go of someone you’ve loved for a long time. But I can wait. I can wait for you to get over him and accept my feelings.” Roger stared intently into her eyes, trying to read what was on her mind. Hearing this, Rachel sighed inwardly, knowing that her words were not ruthless enough to let Roger down. “I’m sorry, Roger. You think it is okay? That I don’t need to feel burdened? But I do feel burdened about it.”
