Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 63

Rachel was absolutely furious with Victor.She gritted her teeth and fantasized a thousand ways to kill him.

And after a while she was much calmer and even managed to fall asleep.

When she opened her eyes again, she realized that the car was moving.

They were finally on the way back to the hotel.

She turned to look at the seat next to her.

Victor was there, his eyes closed and the first two buttons of his black shirt unbuttoned, giving her a perfect view of his collarbone.She couldn't stop herself from thinking that he was so very sexy right now.

His eyes suddenly flew open then, as if he had sensed Rachel's gaze.

Startled, she looked away, turning her head to look out the window.

Her stomach gave a loud rumble in protest, reminding her that she was starving.

To get to the hotel they had to pass by a busy outdoors market.

There were stalls selling all kinds of street food and through the slightly open window, she could hear clearly the vendors fishing for clients.

The smell that drifted in was tantalizing, especially that of spicy prawns on a stick.

Being pregnant, she got sick with the faintest smell of food, so she hadn't had a normal meal in days.

And when she managed to eat something, she would just throw it up minutes later.

But today, she felt no nausea at all at the smells that wafted from the food stalls.

Maybe it was because she was really starving, or perhaps spicy prawns were too damn hard to resist.

The growling of her stomach was so loud now that everyone in the car could hear it.

Rachel kept looking outside her window, pretending that nothing had happened.

Victor had been typing a reply to a message on his phone when he heard it.

He paused, fingers poised over the screen.

"Grrr!"

There it was again.

Rachel's stomach was growling Victor immediately called out to the driver.

"Stop the car."

The car pulled over in the blink of an eye and Victor turned to Rachel.

"I'm in the mood for some spicy prawns.Go get me some."

Rachel's eyes widened in disbelief and she took a look outside.

Not too far away, there was a stall selling spicy prawns.

There were seven or eight people waiting in line so, obviously, it was a popular one.

Waiting in that line would take too long! She was hungry and tired, and she wasn't in the mood of standing around in line.

But she was certain that if she refused to do Victor's bidding, he would once again threaten to destroy the Bennet Group.

She was under his thumb and he knew it, so she had no choice but to do as he said.

Giving him her best fake smile, she said, "Of course! I'll be back in a minute!"

She threw the car door open and climbed out.

As she walked towards the stall, she drew a lot of attention, dressed in a gown and wearing high heels.

"Mr.Sullivan, the doctor warned you not to eat prawns and shellfish.You are allergic to them.Your throat will close up and…"

Ivan started, looking cautiously at Victor through the rearview mirror.

"I know," Victor interrupted him curtly.

"Then why did you…"

Ivan looked perplexed, but stopped talking immediately, noticing the look Victor was giving him.

He got the message and stopped talking, trying his best to hide his curiosity.

Ivan had in Victor's employ for two years now.

He knew when to mind his own business.

Victor rolled down the window, rest his arm against the window frame and saw Rachel standing in line for the spicy prawn.
