Captivation: Want Nothing But You -
Chapter 1673
Knowing what Quintin was worried about, Rachel assured him nothing was wrong.
“I’m fine.
I just dealt with a lot of things today.”
Quintin squinted his eyes and typed a reply.
“Did Odin give you a lot of work out of spite? How dare he harass you like that? He better gets his shit together, or I’ll hack into Sullivan Group’s security system and spread their secrets worldwide.
Let’s see if Odin can keep his position in Sullivan Group after that.”
Rachel’s eyebrow rose, reading the message.
Quintin sent another one without waiting for Rachel’s reply.
“If you want to make Odin for what he has done, just say the word, and I’ll hack their system and gather evidence of his schemes.
With irrefutable proof, you can report him to the authorities and make him rot in prison.
Why do you have to put up with him?”
Rachel’s expression turned serious as she typed her reply.
“That’ll be an easy punishment.
I want him to reap exactly what he sow.”
If she were to hit the devil, Rachel would make sure not to miss.
She had to do everything according to plan.
Odin wasn’t an easy foe to beat.
He was clever and cunning.
The series of suicide cases in Sullivan Group’s project in Baltimore was an example of his ploy.
Those who became the project head took their own lives by jumping off the building.
When Rachel asked Quintin to investigate the whereabouts of the victims’ families, they got nothing.
It turned out Odin hid them and make them swear not to say anything about the incidents.
After learning that the victims’ families were safe, Rachel eventually gave up the investigation.
Although Odin had no regard for human life, he never wanted to have blood on his hands.
If he wanted a person to die, he would make things difficult for them until they couldn’t take it anymore and commit suicide.
That was how Odin usually deal with things.
If he really wanted the victims’ families dead, he wouldn’t have hidden them.
Obviously dissatisfied, Quintin replied, “Fine, fine.
You’re the boss anyway.
But please be careful.
Odin is vicious.
He will do anything to get what he wants.
You must ensure your safety while you’re there.”
Rachel replied, “I know.”
Remembering something, she immediately added, “By the way, do you know how Alberto’s face became disfigured?”
Quintin stared confusedly at Rachel’s message before replying, “Why do you want to know about it? It’s just a rumor, though.
He always wears a mask, and only a few people have seen his face, but no one has ever confirmed the disfigurement.”
Rachel recalled the moment she saw Alberto’s face and replied, “No, it’s not a rumor.”
Reading Rachel’s reply, Quintin widened his eyes and jerked from the chair in incredulity.
Intrigued, he hurriedly replied, “Are you sure? Have you seen his face? No way! I mean, how? When?”
Rachel replied curtly, “Earlier.”
Quintin was thrilled.
“What the hell? That was awesome! Did he take off his mask and let you see his face? He has never taken it off when he’s outside!”
Rachel only replied with a question mark.
It took a while before Quintin came down from excitement.
He sat down again and replied, “I didn’t really believe there was any truth to the rumor because no one has seen Alberto’s face, so the disfigurement must be just a speculation.
Plus, the Gibson family has been protective of him since he was a kid because he was sickly.
So, the chances of him getting hurt to the point of having a disfigurement on his face were very small.
But there was news about him being kidnapped on his fourteenth birthday.
They had a grand party for him in their house, and it was attended by many of the influential and powerful families in town.
Everyone was so busy enjoying the party that they didn’t pay much attention to Alberto, even his family.
The news said he went to his room early that night because he wasn’t feeling well.
His nanny, who had been taking care of him since he was very young, took care of him at that time.
But little did everyone know, the nanny was swayed by a group of kidnappers to kidnap Alberto in exchange for money.
The search operation for him went on for two days until the kidnappers contacted the Gibson family and asked for five million as ransom money.
Otherwise, they would kill Alberto.
But that wasn’t a very good time for the Gibson family financially.
They had just invested in a huge developmental project, and their assets were almost drained.
It was difficult for them to prepare such a huge amount of money in a short time, but they still tried to make it happen.
Then, something so unexpected happened.
Alberto showed up at the family’s gate.
He was almost out of breath.
He passed out and fell into a coma for a long time.
Maybe that was when he disfigured his face.”
Having typed all that without a pause, Quintin took a deep breath for second and sent another message.
“So, what does he look Like?
Was he badly hurt? If it weren’t that bad, he wouldn’t have worn a mask this whole time, right?”
Reading Quintin’s question, Rachel paused.
After giving it a thought, she typed a reply, “His face was burnt.”
