Captivation: Want Nothing But You -
Chapter 357
The shop manager, on the other hand, was absolutely delighted.
This was a great start to what she had no doubt was going to be a spending spree.
She kept showing products to them, and kept Looking up at Victor to ask his opinion.
With her natural charm and smart business strategy, she knew how to sell just about anything.
If Rachel said nothing, Victor would buy whatever it was.
The shopping experience lasted around three hours.
The shop manager was energetic and enthusiastic the entire time, never once giving any indication that she was getting tired or thirsty from all the talking.
She still walked with a spring in her step as if she hadn’t been standing for quite some time already.
Rachel listened as attentively as she could.
To her, the joy of the shopping experience had disappeared long ago, and it was all starting to feel like a school lecture again.
By the time they finally finished their shopping and left the store, it was almost dusk.
Then the managers personally saw them out the shop and out the mall.
The female manager looked up at the sky when she realized how time had gotten away from them.
At first, she marveled at the way the setting sun painted the clouds in hues of orange and red, and then she sighed.
“Ah… Look at the evening glow!”
‘The evening glow?’
Rachel looked up at the sky.
She saw how the fading red light dyed the clouds to look like flames, and the spacious square outside the mall where they were standing provided a stunning view.
“It’s beautiful,” Rachel said.
The male manager also nodded vigorously.
“I still remember this spectacular view I saw once.
The entire sky looked like it was on fire… After all this time, I can still picture it so clearly…”
The whole sky had looked like it was burning?
Rachel tilted her head to the side as she studied the clouds.
She remembered she had also seen something just like that once.
It had been three years ago, on the day she’d been thrown into prison.
The memory of her being shoved out the back door of the court and squeezed into a police car was still so clear.
As was the memory of just how fiercely red the sky had been on that day.
It was like it was sending her away with one last hurrah.
Victor glanced at Rachel and caught sight of her expression.
There was something about her silence, and the small smile on her face, that made him want to stand and watch the sunset with her forever.
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he was shocked.
Luckily for him, Rachel was so focused on the sunset that she didn’t notice his sudden change in expression.
Their driver had already arrived and pulled the car to a stop in front of them.
He came around the side and opened the back door for them.
He cleared his throat and said, “Miss Bennet, Mr.
Sullivan.”
Victor ignored the open door, went around to the other side of the car and got in.
Rachel quietly got into the car on the side the driver was waiting.
Under the managers’ gaze, the Bentley slowly drove away.
Victor’s silence eventually started to make Rachel feel uncomfortable.
