Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 372

There was a brief silence in the other line. Then, Victor said, “Bye.” He ended the call without giving Carson the opportunity to respond.

Carson’s eyes narrowed and the corner of his mouth twitched, it seemed that things have gone quite different from what he planned. He had thought that once Victor learned that Rachel was with Roger, he would ask him where they were and then go look for her. However, Victor was surprisingly calm. Carson even believed that seeing the depressed and regretful man in the past four years was an illusion. Nonetheless, he had already led Rachel to the villa.

Carson shrugged it off and still sent Victor the villa number, muted the phone, and tossed it on the passenger seat. A smile formed on his lips. “As a friend, this is all i can do.” He stepped on the accelerator. The Ferrari pulled out of the parking lot and drove away from the Waterfront Hotel.

Ding!

A message popped out. Victor’s eyes narrowed as he examined Carson’s text message on his phone. When he was done reading, he deleted everything in a swipe. .

He tightened his fists unconsciously as he closed his eyes. Just when he had calmed down, Rachel’s face appeared in his mind again. He missed her so much and his heart longed for her. He couldn’t help but murmur her name in a hushed voice. There was a garden between the hotel’s main hall and the villas for the guests. In the garden, there were various crisscrossed trails. The air was refreshing and it was also incredibly quiet. Many customers who dined at the hotel’s restaurant enjoyed taking a stroll through the garden.

There were dimmed road lamps on both sides of the cobblestone path, allowing people to see the way while giving them an aesthetic feel. Rachel looked at the sign and proceeded to the villa the waiter had just mentioned. However, despite walking for more than ten minutes, she was unable to find the villa. She grimaced as she checked the time on her phone. She changed her SIM card after coming back and she wasn’t able to save Clara’s phone number yet. Because of that, it was impossible to contact her and it might take forever to find her at this rate. Luckily, a woman who appeared to be working at this place was passing by and Rachel quickly walked up and called out to her.

“Hello, what can I do for you?” the staff asked respectfully as she looked at Rachel. “I’m sorry to bother you, but where can I find this villa?” Rachel told the woman the villa number. ” “It’s still a long way from here. How did you get here? You took the wrong way. The villa is in the opposite direction.”

The woman was obviously surprised. ‘In the opposite direction?’ “But I followed the sign here…” Rachel murmured. “Oh! Yes, ma’am. We’re very sorry. A drunk guest broke the sign yesterday. We haven’t repaired it yet. It’s our honest mistake.”

The corner of Rachel’s mouth twitched. She had walked such a long way but she was actually getting farther and farther from where she was supposed to go. “I see. So I should take that way?” Rachel pointed in the direction the staff had told her just now. She needed to give the medicine to Riley and she didn’t have time to care about the sign.

“Yes. Let me take you there. It’s the least I could do.” “Thank you.”
