Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 4

Alice's fingernails were digging into her palms, and her chest was heaving up and down due to the anger she was feeling.

All of a sudden, she pulled Rachel up and slapped her face.

The slap left a palm print on Rachel's face.

Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.

Obviously, Alice didn't hold back when she slapped Rachel.

Gnashing her teeth, Alice said to the servants, "You two, hold her up!"

Rachel's vision was fading because of how hard she had gotten hit.

The servants didn't dawdle, and they immediately followed Alice's command.

Each of them held one of Rachel's arms to restrict her.

With a murderous gaze, Alice clasped Rachel's chin, forcing her to raise her head.

The imprint of an open hand was evident on the right side of her face; it was red and swollen.

Once more, Alice raised her hand and snarled, "You're quite glib, aren't you? Say something again, I dare you!"

"Alice, do you know what my life motto is?"

Rachel spat out a mouthful of blood, trying her best to keep her eyes open.

Her almond-shaped eyes looked as cold as ice.Her steely gaze was enough to intimidate people.

"Ten eyes for an eye, and ten teeth for a single tooth," Rachel sneered.

"As long as I live and breathe, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth, and I will make you suffer for what you've done to me today!"

For a moment, Alice was startled by her gaze, but she soon came to her senses.

"Don't try to frighten me with that threat! Do you think a loser like you could scare me?" she said through gritted teeth.

Right after she said that, Alice hit Rachel's face until it swelled up.

Her anger was finally quenched when she got tired.

She looked at Rachel dead in the eyes and said to the servants, "Didn't you hear Mr.Sullivan earlier?"

"Yes, ma'am.He ordered us to remove her clothes and throw her out," a servant said, lowering her gaze.

Alice massaged her sore wrist, smiling with satisfaction before she decided to strut away.

Before long, the servants stripped Rachel down to her pelt, leaving only a set of silk underwear to cover her naked body.

Unable to resist, Rachel closed her eyes and gave up struggling.

She just let them do whatever they wanted to her.

She knew very well that her survival was now the most important thing.

The servants supported her on each side as they walked towards the door.

After all, Rachel was once Victor's wife.

Even though the servants loathed her, they still didn't want to bear witness to her embarrassment.

Along the way, she didn't see anyone else besides the maids who were escorting her.

Meanwhile, the butler knocked on the door of the study.

"Come in," said Victor.

The butler entered the room and said to him, "Mr.Sullivan, Mrs-Ms.Bennet had been thrown out as you've commanded."

Victor was currently reading a contract, so he didn't raise his head when he replied, "Did she say anything?"

"No," said the butler.

With a snort, Victor thought of what Rachel had said earlier.

His eyes brimmed with cruelty as he shut the folder and ordered, "Tell them to throw that bitch as far as they can.Don't let that woman disgrace my doorstep."

The butler was shocked to hear that.

"Yes, sir," he answered reluctantly.

Inside a cramped basement somewhere south of the city...

"No!"

Rachel suddenly woke up, sitting upright and screaming.

She was breathing heavily and looking ahead in horror.

Just then, someone pushed the door open from outside.

Seeing that she was awake, the man set aside the medicine he had prepared and walked to the bed.

"Miss Bennet, you're finally awake," he said with concern.

Rachel looked at him vigilantly, calming down at once.
