Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 32

My tacit permission?" Victor wasn’t happy to hear that.He took a step closer to Rachel; his intimidating aura could be felt by everyone in the room.

"Rachel, you’ve learned how to keep a straight face while lying, haven’t you?"

Judging by the look in Victor’s eyes, he was obviously criticizing her.

If his gaze could turn into daggers, Rachel would’ve gotten stabbed a hundred times by now.

"I didn’t take Ivan’s phone until you agreed, did 1?"

Rachel was now having difficulties breathing.

Victor’s daunting presence was far too strong for her to handle.His gaze remained cold, but he didn’t say anything.However, as soon as Rachel explained her side, he dialed back his anger a little.

"Is that the tacit permission you mentioned?"

Rachel let out a deep sigh and said, "Ivan’s phone is connected to the Sullivan Group’s Wi-Fi.He’s your closest confidant, so there should be a program in your company’s security system specially designed to recognize his identity.Therefore, he won’t be blocked by the security programs.Am I right? So, as long as I log into your monitoring system through Ivan’s phone using the company’s Wi-Fi, the program won’t stop me."

  Rachel paused for a moment before she continued, "I’ve learned a little about computer programming before.Grandma also told me the password of your office’s monitoring system, so that I can have access to the security footage."

When Rachel mentioned his grandmother, Victor warned her, "Mind your words, Rachel! We’re already divorced.You’re no longer permitted to call my grandmother ‘Grandma’."

Rachel pursed her lips and ignored what Victor just said.

"If you still don’t believe me, you can ask the security department to check the footage using Ivan’s phone.I’m just a novice in the field of computer programming, so there’s a big chance that I left some traces when I pulled out the security footage.If you want your men to investigate this matter, they can find it out within a minute."

Victor creased his eyebrows.

"It’ll cost too much time and waste manpower.You don’t deserve that."

The corners of Rachel’s mouth twitched.

If she was strong enough to beat Victor, she would’ve slapped his face with every ounce of strength she had in her body.

After listening to Rachel’s explanation, Ivan immediately contacted the security department and confirmed that she was telling the truth.

Afterwards, he cast Victor a glance to let him know about it. Since Ivan gave him a signal, Victor clicked his tongue and said to Rachel, "I’ll let you off the hook this time.Next time, if you cause any trouble, I’m going to throw you out myself."

Right after he finished talking, he put his hand on Rachel’s shoulder, forcing her to stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and look down through it.

The window was so clean that they could see everything outside clearly.

From a height of more than thirty floors, anyone would feel a strong sense of weightlessness, and would hallucinate falling down all of a sudden.

Rachel had a fear of heights, so she felt dizzy for a moment. She then took a deep breath, bit her lip, and closed her eyes.

The fear on her face amused Victor. He decided to let go of Rachel.

Then, he went to his chair and sat down.

Once she had calmed down, she opened her eyes and took a few steps back, turning her gaze towards Victor.

"Victor, I just want to confirm this with you one more time.As long as I give you all the information I can find on the project manager of KD Group, you’ll agree to suspend the Bennet Group’s liquidation, right?"

A playful smile appeared on Victor’s lips.

"I only promised to give you an interview to work for the Sullivan Group."

"Fine!"

Seeing that Rachel’s hands were empty, Victor began to ridicule her in his mind.

"You have fifteen minutes left, Rachel.Where’s the info that you promised?"

It took him three months to figure out the project manager’s identity.

He even had to pull some strings to get the information he needed.

Frankly, a loser like Rachel would never find out the manager’s identity in twenty-four hours.

‘You want to save the Bennet Group, Rachel? That’s just a wishful thinking!’ Victor thought; the disdain in his eyes grew every passing second.

"Why are you silent all of a sudden? Yesterday, you had so much confidence when you declared you’ll find out."

"I did find it out."
