Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 400

 "The law firm had just accepted a difficult divorce case today, and the lawyer who had accepted this case applied for sirle leave so in the end.I was placed in charge of it.After I got off the plane, the client called me and asked me to meet him in his apartment.I didn’t expect that there a fire would go off in that building."

Andy couldn’t believe his bad luck.

The client’s apartment was just next to the one that had caught fire.

When they found out about it, they quickly went downstairs through the exit stairway.

But then the fire found its way to the gas cans and they exploded.

The whole building trembled, and even the apartments on other floors started burning.

The electricity was cut off, and it was dark in the stairwell which was filled with people who had escaped.

Someone from behind pushed Andy whose mind hadn’t been on the steps under his feet at that time, so he missed his footing and fell down the stairs.

Luckily the next landing wasn’t that far, and Andy’s legs were fine.

The problem came in when he protected his head with his arms, and his elbow hit the wall sharply.His arm was broken.

The pain of it was just too much and he fainted from the shock.

"By the time I woke up, I was already in the ambulance.I heard that two explosions occurred in Gentlefolk in a row and that there were several car accidents caused by the traffic jam."

Probably because the effect of the anesthetic had worn off, the wound on Andy’s forehead throbbed as he spoke.

‘Two explosions in a row… Victor has been living in Gentlefolk these days"

Rachel was lost in thought.

At this moment, her mobile phone vibrated in her hand.

The screen lit up as a news pop-up showed on it.

"Gentlefolk caught fire and two gas explosions occurred in Building A.Many people have been injured, and severa apartments were seriously damaged.

It is said that Victor Sullivan… The screen was locked, so the content of the news didn’t show completely.

When Rachel saw the name, her heart skipped a beat for no reason and a chilly thought formed in her mind.

‘Was Victor in Gentlefolk at that time? Did he get hurt as well?’ 

"I don’t know if the fire is out yet or not,"

Andy continued, not noticing the change in Rachel’s expression.

"Which floor was your client’s apartment on?"

Rachel suddenly interrupted.She didn’t know why she was even asking to begin with was ve Andy was stunned for a while, then he said, "The 27th floor.Is something wrong?"

Rachel pursed her lips.

The 27th floor was very close to the 29th floor, and a gas explosion could affect a large area.

If Victor had been in Gentlefolk at that time, he would have been injured.

Because in addition to the floor on fire, the floors above it and below it should had been affected greatly.

Thinking of this, Rachel didn’t even notice that her fingers were trembling.

Her heart sank at the morbid thoughts, making her short of breath.

Why did she get such a feeling? Why did her heart ache at the thought of him getting hurt? If something bad happened to Victor, she should have been happy.

Wasn’t that what she wanted anyway? That way she could take Joey away from Apliaria and go far away.

Then she wouldn’t need to worry all the time that Victor would find out about Joey’s identity.

And she wouldn’t be afraid that the feelings between Joey and Victor growing deeper and deeper.

Andy finally realized that something wasn’t right with Rachel.

Just as he was about to ask what happened, Rachel suddenly stood up.

"I have to go now.Rest well."

Betore Andy could say anything, Rachel had turned around and left the ward.

Looking at Rachel’s receding back, Andy was confused.
