Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 299

Victor's face turned grim.

Rachel squinted at him and said, "Even if Miss Salazar wouldn't mind, I would. I'm not going to live in someone else's house."

"Are you jealous?" he asked.

'Jealous?' Rachel thought with disgust. Those words made her eyes turn even more frigid. "What part of my sentence made you think that? I am not jealous."

Victor frowned and explained, "Well, if you don't mind my relationship with Susan, I—"

"I don't care," Rachel replied, interrupting him midsentence. "Your relationship with Susan, and whatever you've said and done with her has nothing to do with me. Why would I even care?"

Victor was rendered speechless.

"I wanted to talk to you about this once you're discharged from the hospital, but it seems if I don't make myself clear, I'm unable to leave." A faint smile appeared on Rachel's lips as she stared into his eyes. "The reason I'm here tonight is because I need to discuss two things with you."

"And that would be what?" asked Victor.

Instead of answering right away, she walked to the sofa and sat down. A few moments later, she said, "The first thing I want to discuss is the Bennet Group's shares.

Victor remained undaunted, but he pressed his lips together and his jaw tightened.

Even though four years had passed since then, when she mentioned their child, Victor was overwhelmed by pain.

And as soon as Rachel looked at him, she saw the regret and sadness on his face, leaving her stunned.

'Is he thinking of our child? Why does he look like he regrets something? What is it that he feels remorse over?'

However, the look on his face disappeared so quickly that Rachel couldn't figure it out in time. She pressed her lips, clenching the wishing pendant in her pocket. The sharp corner of the pendant nicked into her palm, bringing her back to her senses.

A moment later, Victor broke the silence. "What if this isn't what I want?"
