Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 503: What Should I Call You 

The assistant froze for a moment, stunned and confused as to why Rachel suddenly talked about this topic with her 50 seriously She smiled awkwardly and said, "I know, Miss Bennet"

Rachel’s eyes bore into her as if checking whether she had truly understood or not.

The assistant looked up at the man on the stage and said softly, "I know too well that Mr.Bentley won’t ever be mine Someone like me doesn’t deserve him.Don’t worry, Miss Bennet.I have a clear knowledge of my limitations"

A disappointed frown flashed across Rachel’s face.Her assistant had misunderstood the point.

"I didn’t mean it that way" Rachel looked at her carefully.

"Women shouldn’t look down on themselves.Personally, I think you are great and you deserve anyone you like."

"Miss Bennet." The assistant bit her lower lip.

The reason I told you not to fall in love with Kyle wasn’t because I think you don’t deserve him.I just don’t want you to get hurt," Rachel said, The assistant felt embarrassed.

She thought Rachel didn’t like her for Kyle.

After all, she was nothing compared to these celebrities and their rich backgrounds.

She had only lived an average life together with her average family ever since, and even if they combined their incomes all these years, it still wouldn’t compare to how much these celebrities earned.

Maybe it was even lesser than the money they spent on just their jewelry and other miscellaneous items.

Even though it was true that she had always looked down on herself, it still hurt when Rachel made her feel insecure again by telling her not to fall for Kyle.

So when Rachel told her the real reason why she had said those things, she felt guilty.

"Miss Bennet… I’m sorry."

"You don’t need to apologize."

Rachel patted her shoulder and then looked at Kyle.

Kyle closed his speech and walked down the stage.

A number of new designers in the design circle of Apliara came to him night away and proposed a toast for him.

Even with the mob of people before him, he seemed to have noticed Rachel’s gaze and turned in her direction.

Although his glasses were on, Rachel knew his eyes fell on her.She immediately looked away.

The assistant spoke again beside Rachel.

"Miss Bennet, I know that you only said those things to keep me from being hurt, but I don’t think Mr.Bentley is that kind of person."

Her voice dropped a little as she continued, "Besides, the two of us live in completely different worlds.He is high above while I’m down below.It’s very unlikely for us to be together."

She couldn’t help but feel a little envious of the people around Kyle with their fancy and elegant clothes, which only showed how far behind she was from him in terms of status and fame.She wished she could be as successful as him in her career and gain admiration from others.

"And if, by some miracle, Mr.Bentley notices me.I don’t think he is an irresponsible man."

"How old are you again?" Rachel asked suddenly, shaking her wine glass a bit.

The assistant blinked her eyes twice, slightly taken aback by the shift of topic.

"I was born in 1998.I graduated two years ago and joined the Bennet Group shortly after."

"Have you ever been in love before?" The assistant immediately blushed.

She hesitated for a while before muttering, "No."

Rachel’s eyebrows raised as she looked at her assistant from head to toe.She was pretty and had a great personality.

It was surprising that she had never been in love or in a relationship since.

"I… I didn’t want to be in a relationship when I was in school and just focused on my studies because my parents were very strict," the assistant explained.

"They only allowed me to go out with men after I graduated." Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"No wonder."

"No wonder what "No wonder you are so naive.Do you really know Kyle?"

Rachel looked at her assistant seriously

"Like what you said earlier, you don’t even know if he is married.What if he is but he just hides it to the public? You know, looks aren enough to know a person fully."

"That’s true…"

The assistant paused, and her eyes narrowed a little.

"Miss Bennet, why do I feel like you’re acting quite strange tonight?"

"What are you two ladies talking about? Can I join you?"

Kyle eventually broke free from the crowd and walked over Startled, the assistant immediately murmured a greeting

"Hello, Mr.Bentley."

Kyle smiled at her as response and looked at Rachel.

Rachel shifted her gaze from her wine glass and up to Kyle.Her eyes bore into him sharply as if she could see through his sunglasses.

"We are discussing what should I call you." A cold smile flashed on Rachel’s face.

"What would you like me to call you, Kyle or Odin?"
