Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 1523

It turned out that Tara was the reason.

That was six months before

Shelia was framed.

“I didn’t want to meet Tara.

But she kept calling and calling.

I had no choice but to meet her.

I was afraid that she would go to meet

Shelia.”

“Did she ask you to meet her so that she could discuss how to frame

Shelia?” Rachel asked.

Wallace hesitated and then nodded.

But suddenly, he shook his head.

“No.

Tara only mentioned it.

She wanted to meet me because she was pregnant.”

The night when they had sex, they forgot to use protection.

“Tara wanted to go ahead with the pregnancy.

But how could I approve?

I was going to propose to Shelia.

A child with another woman would mean the end of our relationship.

But no matter how I begged, Tara insisted on having the baby.

She even asked me to break up with

Shelia and marry her instead.” Wallace buried his head in his hands.

Frustrated, he dug his fingernails into his scalp.

Rachel’s eyes darkened, and her thin lips formed a straight line.

“I had to put the proposal on hold.

I couldn’t let Tara tell Shelia the truth.

I had to find a way to deal with it myself.” There was pain in his voice.

“But Tara was pressurizing me.

After giving it much thought, I decided to tell Shelia the truth.

Just as I was about to do it, Tara suddenly changed her mind.

I didn’t know until very late that it was because she suffered a miscarriage.

She lost her most important bargaining chip.”

Wallace paused before continuing, “She said that someone called her.

It seemed the guy could help us remove Shelia from the chairman’s position and make me a new member of the committee.”

It was hard for a timid and cowardly Wallace not to be tempted by the offer.

When he was with Shelia, he always had to follow her, and she never took him seriously.

Shelia was beautiful and had a lot of pursuers.

She was smart, and he was an average Joe.

The difference in position formed an abyss in his heart a long time ago.

Every time he saw her handle the affairs, he felt he didn’t deserve her.

When he heard Tara’s plan, he agreed to it.

“Who was that person?” After Rachel heard the entire thing, she didn’t feel anything.

Her feelings for Wallace died a long time ago.

She found his repentance disgusting.

But she had to endure it till she found what she wanted to hear.

“I..

I don’t know,” Wallace replied while shaking his head.

Rachel looked him up and down wordlessly.

It did not look like he was lying.
