Captivation: Want Nothing But You

I know.

ALL right, lets not talk about it already.

How about I treat you to a nice restaurant? Choose what you think is the best in Apliaria.

Barnett coaxed Shayla, trying to make amends.

When he saw the tears in her eyes, he panicked.

Shayla raised her head, looked at Barnett, and said, No need.

I want to go back and rest.

A N G E L A s L I B R A R Y Barnett immediately understood.

Klein broke Shaylas heart, but she still couldnt leave Klein behind.

She still cared for him the most.

Barnett forced a smile.

Inwardly, he couldnt help blaming himself for overreacting just now.

ALL right.

If you both dont want to eat, Ill go alone.

After all, this cooperation has come to a temporary conclusion.

The rest is just following up the data.

Its relatively easier.

At this moment, Rachel watched Rowell and the others get into the car.

It was only then that she breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned around, only to see Shayla and Barnett still standing on the steps.

Klein was no longer there, which made her raise her eyebrows.

She was a little surprised.

Barnett met Rachels gaze.

He cleared his throat and explained, Klein is not feeling well, so he left first.

Hes not feeling well? Barnett nodded.

He didnt get much sleep last night, so he is probably catching some zs now.

He really didnt mean to leave first.

But ironically, his explanation only made the situation seem more suspicious.

But Rachel had no intention of settling scores with Klein at this moment.

And it didnt matter to her if he left first.

She looked at Barnett, then at Shayla, and asked, How do you plan to go back? We have a car, Barnett replied.

Did you also drive here? If you didnt, you can ride with us.

Rachel thought for a moment.

She was in the downtown area now, so she could go by her house to get her car.

Then, she wouldnt have to worry about transportation in the future.

In the end, she refused Barnetts offer.

I need to do something first, so Ill go back by myself later.

For some reason, Barnett and Shayla breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Actually, after this afternoons meeting, their impressions of Rachel had significantly changed.

They didnt know why, but in their minds, they unconsciously placed her in the same position as Alberto.
