Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 49

The words were barely discernable as Alice was talking through gritted teeth.

“Don’t worry.

That bitch is no match for you.

Has she done anything other than annoy Victor for the past two years? Now that they got divorced, she is just pathetic, pestering Victor when he obviously hates her guts,” Caroline spat, looking disgusted.

Alice raised her chin arrogantly.

“You are right.

Rachel is nothing but a loser, everyone knows it.

If that cranky old woman hadn’t insisted she was the one Victor should marry, he would have been mine long ago!”

Caroline smiled as she looked at her daughter.

“Oh, honey! Now Victor is single and you two meet a lot in the Sullivan Group! You should double your efforts to catch his eye.

If you marry him and become the lady of the Sullivan family, your father and I will also benefit from it.

A lot of people will want to butter us up.”

Just thinking about it, Caroline couldn’t control her enthusiasm.

She and Elisa had been college friends.

Caroline had been the queen of her high-school.

She had been popular and everywhere she went, all eyes were on her.

But when she had gone to college, things were much different.

Everyone’s attention was always on Elisa, making Caroline feel invisible for the first time in her life.

She hadn’t been able to accept that she would always be second-best to that new girl.

As time went by, her jealousy grew, as did the desire to crush Elisa under her heel.

Caroline had even tried to copy Elisa, see if that got her back the attention she had lost, but still, Elisa was always better than her at anything!

And then, on Elisa’s wedding day, Caroline had seen Jack and things had started to change in a dangerous way.

Jack was a handsome gentleman, and he was considerate to Elisa during their wedding day.

Caroline felt so jealous that she thought she would go insane.

She wanted to take him away from Elisa, and the jealousy tortured her day after day.

One day, Caroline couldn’t stand it anymore.

She went to Elisa’s house while Elisa was away on a business trip.

That night, when she looked at Jack lying beside her on the bed, her heart was filled with a sense of victory and satisfaction.

It had been so long since she had a taste of this pleasure.

Once he had started their affair, Jack could no longer stop himself from cheating again.

In addition, Caroline was more seductive and more womanly than Elisa.

He was obsessed with her sweetness, so he decided to just go with it.

Caroline did her best to please Jack to keep him by her side and render him unable to leave her.

Naturally, it boosted her ego to know that he could not get enough of her.

But as time went by, she was no longer satisfied with having a secret affair with Jack.

She asked him to divorce Elisa, but he refused.

Jack had married into Elisa’s family, and he was living in their mansion.

Divorcing Elisa would mean that he would have nothing left.

Upon taking that into consideration, Caroline decided to keep her relationship with Jack a secret.

However, her hatred for Elisa grew with every passing day.

Finally, Caroline’s evil prayers had been answered.

Soon after Elisa gave birth to Rachel, she died from a serious illness that caused postpartum complications, adding to the fact that she was always overworking herself.

After Elisa’s death, Caroline married Jack and successfully moved into the Bennet family’s mansion.

Caroline thought that her days of being looked down upon had come to an end, but she had never imagined that the upper class women thought she was ridiculous.

She could see in their eyes how much they disdained her every time they met.

Perhaps in their minds,

Caroline was just a mistress, and that was what she would always be.
