Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 295

Rachel grabbed an orange from the fruit plate, peeled it, and handed it to Ivan. "Do you want an orange?" she asked.

Ivan bit back the words he wanted to say, staring at the orange that was being handed to him. For a moment, he hesitated whether to take it or not.

Seeing that he wasn't taking it, Rachel put the peeled orange on the table in front of him. Then, she peeled another orange for herself, slowly putting it into her mouth

Ivan had been wanting to finish his sentence several times, but she didn't seem like she was interested in what he wanted to say.

"Miss Bennet, I..." At this point, he felt helpless.

"Is it cold outside?" Rachel asked, looking him in the eye.

"A little." Her question left Ivan stunned for a moment. He thought that she was worried it would be cold if she would go outside later on. Thus, he told her, "Oh, but don't worry, Miss Bennet. There's heating in the car. And if you don't mind, I can lend you my coat while we're outside.”

Rachel leaned back on the sofa, showing no intention of leaving with him. "There's no rush. Eat your orange first. You've been out in the cold for several hours. Or would you rather wait out there even longer?”

Ivan was rendered speechless.

"Your boss is in the hospital, heavily injured. He's not going anywhere. Besides, I'm not a doctor. I can visit him later. There's no need to hurry," Rachel added while continuing to eat the orange in her hand.

Having heard that, Ivan stared at the peeled orange on the table in silence, visibly worried.

From the corner of her eye, Rachel noticed the look on his face. She could tell that he was caught in a dilemma, so she figured it was time to stop picking on him. Moreover, she knew that if she refused to go to the hospital with him today, the man wouldn't leave.

Aside from that, she also had something to discuss with Victor.

"Eat the orange I gave you and I'll come with you." Having said that, she gave the rest of her orange to Andy. Noticing how worried he appeared, she flashed him a grin to comfort

him and stood up. "I'll go upstairs and change my clothes. The orange is a little sour, so eat it slowly."

Ivan had thought that it would be much more difficult to persuade Rachel into coming with him to the hospital. But after hearing her say that, he was taken by surprise and the worry in his eyes disappeared.

Thus, he quickly picked up the orange and ate it up.

But the second he bit one piece of orange, he realized just how sour it was.

'Ilt's so sour!" he exclaimed inwardly.

The overpowering taste made him tremble, and his teeth kind of hurt.

He immediately drank some water to dissipate the sour taste from his tongue. It suddenly occurred to him that Rachel looked weird earlier while she was looking at him and eating her orange. Then, he realized why she told him to eat it slowly.

Rachel had no intention of giving him a hard time, nor did she say that it would take some time before she went to the hospital with him.

But she did have one condition; Ivan had to eat the entire orange.

'My God... this orange isn't just a little sour," he remarked inwardly.

Ivan turned his gaze towards Andy and noticed that the latter didn't know that the orange would be so sour, either. Noticing that Ivan was looking at him, Andy scratched his nose to hide his embarrassment.

"Why are you looking at me? Miss Bennet told you that she'll come with you after you finish your orange. Worry not, good sir. I have no intention of stopping her. Don't waste it. The fruit's vitamins are good for you. Anyway, I'll go see if Miss Bennet is finished changing.”

Ivan was rendered speechless. “God damn it!"

About half an hour later, Rachel and Ivan finally left the Bennet family's house and went into his car. The moment they got in the car, it began to drizzle.

Rachel turned her head towards the window. The driblets of rain running down the window blurred the view outside.

Meanwhile, Ivan glanced at her through the rearview mirror with a grim expression. Then, he told the chauffeur to drive to the hospital.
