Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 62

Inside the hall, the band was playing music.Victor was Drake's favorite student, and Alicia was Drake's granddaughter.

The pair attracted a lot of attention during the party.

And this was the perfect moment for them to perform the opening dance.

While they were dancing, they coordinated so well that it seemed like they were indeed a perfect match.

Alicia was nimble and graceful, while Victor's every move was steadily calculated.

Halfway through their performance, more and more people joined them on the dance floor.

Dannis led Rachel to the dance floor.

One of his hands was holding her hand, and the other was carefully placed on her waist.

As the romantic music played, they slowly danced along to its tune.

A while later, Dannis was pleasantly surprised by Rachel's dancing skills.

"Miss Bennet, I must say, you're quite good at dancing than I've thought!"

"I actually learned how to dance when I was a child, but I was a lazy student, so I'm not really that good at it as a real lady should be." Rachel looked into his eyes and smiled.

"Please don't blame me if I accidentally step on your foot, Mr.Powell."

After saying that, she winked impishly.

Surprised that she blinked at him, Dannis blurted out, "How could I blame you?"

In response to his question, Rachel just smiled without saying anything.

"Say, Miss Bennet… Are you married?"

Dannis was thinking that any man married to Rachel was fortunate, so he popped that question without thinking about it.

Only when he said it out loud did he realize how abrupt and awkward that question was.

But before Rachel could respond, he said, "I apologize for asking you such a question.I just think you're quite beautiful and extraordinary! You must have a lot of pursuers."

"Perish the thought, Mr.Powell.I'm not unwilling to tell you about myself."

If he knew Rachel's full name and had her investigated, it would be easy for him to know everything about her past.

It was something she couldn't avoid.

Shelia didn't want to deny the old Rachel's deeds in the past.

After all, she was Rachel now, and she must take responsibility for her past.

"I used to be married, but about a month and a half ago, I got divorced,"she said.

Dannis was stupefied for a moment.

The fact that Rachel told him the truth so calmly was astonishing.

He didn't come to his senses until she accidentally stepped on his foot.

"I'm curious to know who would be so stupid to divorce a beautiful woman like yourself, Miss Bennet," he said.

"If I were him, I would never commit the same mistake."

On the other side of the dance floor, Alicia caught sight of Rachel and Dannis dancing together.

She frowned and muttered unhappily, "Why are they dancing together?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but Victor heard it clear, for they were dancing face to face.

He then stared at the direction Alicia was looking at seconds ago.

Upon seeing Rachel and Dannis dancing together, his face turned serious, and the air around him became frigid.

Alicia couldn't help but shudder at his expression.

"Victor, are you okay?"

He didn't respond to her question.

Judging from the look on his face, she could feel how angry he was.

She then pursed her lips and had a vague feeling that the reason Victor was mad was because of Rachel.

When that thought crossed her mind, it made Alicia upset.

"Victor, you—"

Before she could finish talking, Victor suddenly brushed her aside.

Caught off-guard, Alicia lost her balance as she staggered backwards.

Not long after, she fell onto Dannis and Rachel.

Fortunately, Dannis managed to notice that Alicia was falling towards him, so he quickly let go of Rachel and caught Alicia.

Rachel didn't expect that Alicia would fall onto them.
