Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 504

 "Mr.Sullivan?"

The assistant's pupils dilated when she saw the man wearing sunglasses in front of her.

"But isn't he...?"

The man slowly took off his sunglasses, revealing his captivating dark brown eyes.

Even though Rachel exposed his identity so directly, it didn't seem to bother him.

"Rachel, my sister-in-law," the man greeted with a smile.

"I'm surprised that I still can't hide from you." Odin still looked the same as he did before, but he looked more mature than he was in the past.

"I divorced Victor four years go," Rachel replied in a flat voice.

Even though she and Odin had never met before, for some reason, Rachel felt uncomfortable around him.

The fact that he regarded her as Victor's wife got on her nerves.

Her intuition told her that she should minimize contact with this man as much as possible.

The man who supposedly died two months ago was now standing here, alive and well.

He even came back to Apliaria using another identity.If he were to claim that he had no ulterior motives, nobody would believe him.

But no matter what Odin was planning, it had nothing to do with her.

Rachel didn't want to get involved in the Sullivan family's internal strife.

"Sorry, I almost forgot about that." Odin apologized.

"Miss Bennet...My apologies."

This time, Rachel didn't say anything.

"Are you mad at me? I didn't mean to do it," Odin remarked.

"No, I'm not," Rachel replied indifferently.

"I just didn't expect that Kyle would be you."

The way she said those words made it seem like she wasn't surprised at all.

"I'm not the real Kyle," Odin responded.

"Just like you said before, Kyle was one of the victims of a terrorist attack about a month and a half ago.He was grievously injured and he's been unconscious for over two weeks.Even until now, he still hasn't recovered.I'm a friend of Kyle.The Tucker Group is planning to develop its operations in the domestic market.It's a difficult task, and there's no other suitable man to lead the project, which is why I decided to do him a favor."

Rachel nodded in response.She didn't bother to think about the truth of Odin's words.She stared at the glass of red wine in her hand.

The purpose of Odin's return this time was no mystery to her.

It wasn't as simple as he stated it to be, and she knew that she shouldn't get involved.

For that reason, she figured that the cooperation between the Bennet Group and the Tucker Group might not push through.

These days, the employees of the Bennet Group had been busy.

Rachel felt really bad for them.

But compared to getting involved with the Sullivan Group's internal strife, giving up early was the best decision.

After a moment of silence, Rachel looked up, seeming like something dawned on her.

"I've got things to do.Welcome to Apliaria, Odin.I'll be taking my leave now."

Having said that, she dragged her dazed assistant out of the banquet hall.

Meanwhile, Odin just stood rooted to his spot.

He didn't utter a word, nor did he try to stop Rachel.

After a while, a man in black came up from behind him and asked, "Shall I stop her?"

"Hmm?"

Odin raised his eyebrows.

"For what reason would you stop her?"
