Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 228

The sea breeze was particularly frigid in the mornings near the end of autumn.The first rays of sunlight pierced the clouds and landed on the seawater.

The divers were escorted back to the ship by rescue ships.

Ivan frowned and his face became more serious as he watched the last diver board the ship.

He peered into the eyes of a rescuer, but the rescuer shook his head and said before Ivan could open his mouth to question.

"We've looked everywhere, Ivan, but Miss Bennet has yet to be found.I've heard there are shark traces in this body of water..."

The savior paused for a bit before continuing, "It's been an eventful evening.Miss Bennet, I'm afraid, has already..."

Someone quickly grabbed his collar and lifted it, interrupting him before he could continue his sentence.

"Mr.Sullivan..."

When the rescuer saw the person in front of him, his face turned pale.Victor's garments were still damp, and his expression grew increasingly threatening.

"Go ahead.She is already what?"

"She...She..."

The rescuer was terrified to the point of trembling.

He couldn't take it any longer under the strain.

"I'm afraid the chances of her still being alive are slim."

The others in the room altered their expressions as they heard this, but they all knew the man was correct.

Even experienced rescuers couldn't promise that they would return safely in such a dangerous underwater environment with the possibility of sharks, let alone Rachel, who had just had a miscarriage and was injured.

Despite this, no one dared to speak the truth.

Bang! Victor threw off the rescuer and ordered, "Keep searching! I'd like to see her, whether she's dead or alive."

It was starting to get dark again.The rescue boats went into the sea one by one and then returned.The radius of the search was  constantly expanding.

On the deck, no one dared to make a sound.

All they could do was cling on and hope for the best.

Despite Ivan's and Lukas' objections, Victor went back and forth into the sea multiple times during this time, but Rachel was still missing.

He was unable to find her.He had truly lost her this time.

Victor felt a pain as if there was a knife stabbing into his heart.His body froze.He took a short break on the deck before returning to the sea.

Ivan raced forward despite Victor's orders when he saw that Victor was getting ready to go back into the sea once again.

"You can't keep going like this, Mr.Sullivan! It will be too much for your body to bear!"

To obstruct his path, Ivan knelt on one knee.

"Get out of my path."

Victor's face was completely expressionless.

He had been in the water for a long time, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Ivan remained still.

"Didn't you hear me, Ivan? Stay out of my path! Or else, get out of here!" Victor raised his fist and lifted his collar, forcing him to stand up.

"I can't! Mr.Sullivan, even if you fire me today, I can't let you go!"

Ivan clenched his teeth and muttered, pursing his lips and staring Victor in the eyes.

"I can't let you put your own life at risk!"

Victor clenched his fists as he stared at him, but he couldn't punch Ivan.

"Mr.Sullivan!"

"Mr.Sullivan...Miss Bennet has been located."

Someone rushed over.

Victor, startled, let go of Ivan and turned to face the man.

"What did you say?"

"Miss Bennet has been located," the man replied in a shaky voice.

Victor had turned around and moved to the opposite side of the deck before the man could complete his sentence.
