Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 461: In Order To Survive 

Shelia didn’t notice what was going on at all.She wiped off the sweat collecting on her forehead in a casual manner, flipped the meat over, and went on to roast it.

"But if you really don’t want to tell me, then forget about it.I was just being a little curious."

Narrowing his eyes at her, Victor said nothing, and silently retracted the knife he was hiding behind his back.He had a feeling that Shelia didn’t mean him any harm.

Shelia crushed some fruits and poured the juice over the meat.

"Well, this definitely could be eaten.Here you go."

"And what about you?"

Victor turned to look down at the meat Shelia was holding out in her hand and didn’t make a move to take it.

"I'll roast some more for myself later."

Seeing that Victor wasn’t going to take the meat, Shelia smiled as if she had just realized something.

"Don’t worry about it.This meat isn’t poisonous.You can rest assured and eat it with ease."

Victor was on high alert right then, watching Shelia with vigilant and cold eyes.

Even though Shelia happened to be an easy-going person, this didn’t mean that she was reckless.She had thought that Victor had gotten lost.

But after she saw his injuries, she knew she was wrong and he was on guard against her.

"I’m not very hungry.You go ahead and eat."

Victor turned to look away and placed the meat aside.

"I’ll roast the rest for you."

Seeing that he wanted to help, Shelia nodded and said, "Okay, it’s perfectly fine if you don’t eat."

She took a bite out of the meat.

After chewing for some time, she furrowed her brows and stuck out her tongue.

"It’s really hard to chew.It was not cooked fully yet.The meat I gave you just now must be the same.Why didn’t you tell me? You even finished it."

Seeing that Shelia spit the meat out, Victor didn’t say a word and only continued to roast the meat.

Putting her meat aside, Shelia turned around and spotted Victor’s smiling face.

"Why are you smiling? Van, you did this deliberately, didn’t you?"

‘’What? Am I smiling?’ Victor never even realized that he was smiling.He lifted his hand and gently touched the corner of his lips.

"Allow me to roast the meat for you.You have gone a long way.Go and get some rest."

"I’m not tired at all.I’ll just sit right here."

With her hands propped under her chin, Shelia proceeded to sit down next to Victor.

Seeing Victor roasting the meat so skillfully, she blinked her eyes and said, "Van, you’re good at cooking meat, aren’t you? Did you learn this skill all by yourself?"

"Yes.I learned how to survive in the wilderness." Victor spoke in a deep voice.

"Survive in the wildness?"

This was the very first time that Shelia had ever heard of such a thing.

"Why did you go out of your way to learn that?"

Imitating what Shelia did earlier, Victor also crushed some fruits and poured the juice over the meat.

Also, he used a knife to slice the meat.

When he heard what Shelia asked, his eyes darkened visibly.

After a while, he said, "I have no idea."

In fact, Victor knew the reason why.

He learned that because he wanted to be prepared in case of any crisis.

Carolyn knew ahead of time that even under ner protection, Victor would find himself in danger one day.

She pushed him to learn more skills so that he would at least have a better chance to survive in case of an emergency.

"Alright."

Pouting, Shelia continued to focus her gaze on the burning flames.

Out of the corner of his eye, Victor caught a glimpse of Shelia’s profile and the dust that rested on the tip of her nose.He stretched out a hand to wipe off the dust.

Shelia was startled and turned to look at Victor with a blank expression.

When Victor looked straight into Shelia’s eyes, he started to feel a little embarrassed.He retracted his hand, looked away, and explained, "Your nose has dirt on it." This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Is that so?"

Shelia went ahead to rub her nose with the back of her hand.

"And what about now? Is it still dirty?"

"No," Victor said, glancing over at Shelia.

"Good." Shelia smiled.

"Van, what else did you learn other than roasting meat? I want to learn too.Can you teach me?"

"Why do you want to learn this?"

"In order to survive."

The words came out of Shelia’s mouth very naturally.
