Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 430

Rachel had no time to duck.She closed her eyes subconsciously and lifted her hands halfway to protect her head.

Before she knew it, a large hand grabbed her wrist, then pulled her to the side forcefully.She found herself falling into a firm and warm arm.

Bang! 

The plate shattered into pieces onto the floor.

Because of inertia, Rachel’s forehead slammed into the man’s chest heavily.It didn’t hurt all that much, but she still felt a little dizzy from moving so abruptly.

Everything happened so quickly that Rachel didn’t have the time to think.

Still in a trance, she heard the sound of Lukas’ voice, mixed with worry and anxiety.

"Miss Bennett, Mr.Sullivan! Are you okay?"

Mr.Sullivan… Rachel regained her senses, cocked her head up, and looked right into Victor’s deep-set eyes.She was utterly startled, completely forgetting about the broken plate.

Regardless of how much pain she was feeling in her forehead, she took two steps back to leave Victor’s arms.

"Don’t move."

Noticing that she intended to push him away, Victor held her tighter.He pulled her in front of him, then turned to Lukas.

"Have someone clean this up and bring me the first-aid kit."

After he said this, Victor lowered his gaze.His angular face held an unreadable expression.

Rachel followed his eyes and discovered that her ankle was bleeding.

Even though she tried to avoid the plate, the fragments had still somehow managed to scratch her.

"But…"

Lukas looked at Victor and moved his lips to say something.

But before he could, Victor shot him a cold glance.

Lukas had to swallow his words.He right away sent the servants to clean up the mess and turned around to look for the kit.

Victor was still holding onto Rachel’s wrist.She eventually came to her senses.

At the thought that Joey was still missing, there was no time to worry about her ankle.

She moved her wrist out of his grasp and said in an indifferent tone, "Mr.Sullivan, please let go of me."

Victor turned to look at her.

Rachel struggled in his arms.

Scared that she might fall down later, Victor had to loosen his grip.

"Stop moving around.Your ankle is hurt."

"I’m perfectly fine."

Rachel turned around, intending to walk away, but the moment she started moving around, the pain in her ankle intensified, making her furrow her brows.She underestimated the injury.She originally thought it was just a flesh wound.

Rachel rested for a bit and then proceeded to walk around.

Seeing how much pain she was in, Victor narrowed his eyes.

He made his way toward her, grabbed her arm behind the back, lifted her up, and walked in the direction of the sofa in the living room.

"Victor!"

Rachel was stunned, "Put me down at once."
