Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 491: Let Him In

Rachel tried to break free from Victor's hold, but she stopped to look at him.

Victor wasn't really awake.

He must be dreaming, and was saying sorry to her in his dream.

Early the next day The sky was its bluest blue like it didn't rain heavily the previous day.

The sun was bright, but was cozy when its rays fell on the skin.

Knock, knock, knock.

It was Lily on the other side of the door.

"Mr.Sullivan, are you awake? Is it convenient for me to come in?"

Rachel was awakened by Lilia's voice.She slowly opened her eyes.

The sun had already peered through the windows and her eyes were adapting to the light.

She was a bit disoriented as she looked around her.

She tried to raise her hand to rub her throbbing temples but she couldn’t move her hand. What hadhappened the previous night was slowly coming back to her.She was in the guest room whereVictor slept.She remembered that when she was about to leave the room, Victor grabbed her hand.Holding her tightly so that she couldn't pull away from him, he said sorry to her.She thought that hewas having a nightmare.

If she pulled her hand from his grasp, she was afraid that he would wake up.

She clearly remembered how she fed Victor medicine.She didn't want to stay until he woke up.Shedidn't want him to remember how she fed him medicine.

Explaining why she did it would be troublesome.

Rachel sat by the bed and let Victor hold her hand to rem Mme She thought that she could take herhand back and leave the room when Victor was deeply asleep.

But she fell asleep with her head against the headboard.

While Rachel was recalling last night's event, she looked at her wrist which was still being held byVictor.

Pursing her lips, she slowly wriggled her wrist free.

Lila knocked on the door again.

"Sir?"

While Lila was contemplating opening the door and entering the room, the door suddenlyopened.It was not Victor but Rachel who appeared at the door.

Surprised, Lila called out, "Miss Bennet!"

"Good morning, Lila,” Rachel said in a soft voice.

Perhaps because she had just awoken, her voice sounded a little lazy.

"Good morning."

Lila was in a daze.She couldn't believe this.

“Rachel didn't sleep in her room last night? Why is she in Victor's room now?" It didn't look likeRachel got up early to go to his room to see him.

It seemed that she slept in the guest room last night.

Lila, however, knew her bounds.

Rachel was the homeowner.

Victor was the guest.

She was a house help and she had no right to ask her about these things.

"Miss Bennet, has Mr.Sullivan’s fever gone?” Lila asked after a while.

"Yes, his fever has gone down,” Rachel answered.

"Oh, good!”

Lila breathed out a sigh of relief.

"Miss Bennet, what would you like for breakfast? I'll go downstairs and prepare it for you."

"I'd like some millet porridge.”

"Okay."

After breakfast, the doorbell rang.

Lila walked out of the kitchen and saw Rachel, who was texting Andy in the dining room.She said,"That should be Mr.Jimenez."

Andy had been busy with his case these days.

Knowing that the Bennet Group's welfare housing project was about to start, he took the time tosend Rachel a message to ask about the progress of the project.

He sent the message last night.

Rachel was asleep at that time and she was unable to reply promptly.

As Rachel was sending her message, she overheard Lila.

"Roger? Did he say he was coming today?"

"Oh, my God! How could I forget it?"

Lila slapped her forehead.

"Mr.Jimenez called early this morning.He said he would come here today.He had asked his friendsto buy a model for Joey."

"An aerospace model?"

"Yes, yes, an aerospace model.Mr.Jimenez said it's quite rare.”

As Lila spoke, she had already gotten to the porch.

She turned on the monitor and was about to open the door.

Her brows knotted when she was the person on the monitor screen.It was not Roger.

"Who is he?”

Rachel came out of the dining room when she heard Lila's surprised voice.She went straight to themonitor to have a look at it.

Simultaneously, the doorbell rang again.

The monitor showed an eye-catching red Ferrari convertible.

In the driver's seat was a man wearing sunglasses.

Lila didn't know the car or the man in it.

But Rachel did.Her phone rang.

Rachel looked at the name on the caller ID.

It was Carson, the owner of the red Ferrari.

"Miss Bennet, do you know this man?“Lila asked.

"Yes."

Lila let out a sigh of relief.

Andy had told her how Joey got his wounds.

So when a stranger appeared outside the house, Lila would be really cautious.

The house was huge, but only Rachel and Joey lived in it.

Lila thought that if someone wanted to do them harm, & woman like Rachel wouldn't be able tohandle it.

Lila was about to open the door and let Carson in, but Rachel stopped her.

"I know him but not well enough, "Rachel said.

"Don’t open the door just yet, Lila.Let him wait outside.”

"Well..."

Lila turned her head to look at the sports car on the monitor screen and then looked at Rachel whohad already walked back to the dining room.

Lila knitted her eyebrows in confusion, but she was sensible enough not to ask more questions.She just nodded and said, "I'll be in the kitchen and do the dishes first, Miss Bennet."

"Okay."

Rachel's phone rang again.lt was Carson.

She hung up.

Just as soon, her phone alerted her of a text message.It was from Carson.

"Rachel, how about letting me in to see my good friend?"

Rachel rolled her eyes.She wasn't about to talk to Carson and she deleted his message.She would begoing to the Bennet Group.

There were businesses that she had looked into.

They had been put on the backburner when Joey was in the hospital.

While the Bennet Group had not yet turned around its affairs, things were getting better and better.All the people in the group were working hard together.

Since she was the head of the Bennet Group, she must work harder.

"Lila, I'll go upstairs to wash up,” Rachel called out.

"Don’t open the door no matter what the man outside says or does."

Lila poked her head out of the kitchen and said, "Yes, Miss Bennet."

Rachel went upstairs to her room.She took a shower, did her make up, and dressed up for work.An hour later, she was downstairs.She found Lila on the porch looking at the monitor.

"What is it, Lila?" Rachel asked.

"Miss Bennet, are you going out?" Lila asked as she turned around to face a dressed-up Rachel."Oh, the man is still outside.”

Rachel took out her phone and saw six messages and five calls from Carson.

"Well, Lila, it's almost time.You can open the door now and let him in," Rachel said in a casual tone.
