Simple Ritual Banished My Wife's Vision Problems | There is one simple Vision ritual anyone can use to improve Vision, so you can say goodbye to your optometrist for good.. <br /> <br /> Do you know anyone with eye or vision problems? My wife was just like you until 3 months ago when everything changed ๐<br /> <br /> 3 months ago, my wife turned 58 and something incredible happened (during her eye appointment with our optometrist) that stunned our eye doctor immediately! <br /> <br /> The first thing Dr. Brewer said was... "WHAT did you do? Your results are incredible!" <br /> <br /> The last time she saw my wife was 6 months ago and back then, her vision was so bad that she couldn't read, see or do anything without her glasses.. <br /> <br /> She had the worst case of floaters, cataracts and blurry vision, which gave her extreme headaches and she was in too much pain all the time.<br /> <br /> She was also having trouble driving and had to continually strain her eyes to clearly see the road and where she was going. <br /> <br /> It was very nerve-racking and I was so scared because I was almost certain she would end up losing her eyesight and the thought of eye surgery was so expensive we couldn't even afford to do that.<br /> <br /> We told Dr. Brewer, how our close friend that works in the National Institute of Vision Research recommended an 'eye opening videoโ that showed how an easy routine can help fix my wife's vision issues. <br /> <br /> We were honestly a bit skeptical at first, but we decided to give it a try.<br /> <br /> Soon after my wife implemented this method, her vision issues cleared up and all her blurry vision, floaters and cataracts disappeared. This video literally changed our lives forever. <br /> <br /> Even the nurse, who had done her blood work, asked how she did it! <br /> <br /> Trust me, this is a first for us in a LONG time that we left Dr. Brewer's office, feeling as if a mountain was lifted from our shoulders!โ<br /> <br /> Anyway, this video changed our lives, and now we want to pay it forward. <br /> <br /> Tap below ๐ to find out what my close friend shared with me | LEARN_MORE | https://vitalizelovelyclub.com/visi/v01/ | 553833701352306 | Sharon Baker | https://facebook.com/ramdaspalsuleofficial | 11,728 | 1 | 2,769,670,349,865,068 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Sharon Baker | 120209738919520119 | vitalizelovelyclub.com | NONE | image | Only 1 in 17 Know About This Vision Fix. | https://vitalizelovelyclub.com/visi/v01/ | 2024-04-17 16:53 | https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/437859980_971643801261489_930690636218884643_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=lbGMVW0Sn4kAb4a0K2Y&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCP4bHTaLA8r7_d-DLVtcHJNzM_u0jpgDEDgVHRBR4JUQ&oe=66274530 | person_profile | 0 | Pt.

If itโs used for a long period of time, it can cause muscle atrophy, or wasting of the muscle.โ<br /> <br /> Source: health.clevelandclinic,org/long-term-effects-of-botox<br /> <br /> Follow if you want all the reasons to not get Botox!

Years later, on the wedding with her second chance, her ex-husband rushed here and saw her wedding ring, "Take it down, or I'll do it for you. "<br /> <br /> ##Chapter 1<br /> Aurora:<br /> โCharlotte, it is only for the deal. The two of us are not going toโฆโ<br /> โYou are going to be touching her, Dimitri. The packs expect to see a f** mark on the woman.โ<br /> I heard my best friendโs voice, making me frown as I walked toward Dimitriโs office.<br /> The two of us were getting ready to go out to the mating ceremony, and I couldnโt help but find myself frowning when he disappeared. I knew that I had to go and at least check where my mate went.<br /> โI am merely going to give her a temporary mark. It will be enough for them to see, and I will be rejecting her. The woman would be my โmateโ for duties, but the last thing that I am going to do is be in a relationship with her.โ He said, and I took a deep breath, trying to process what I was hearing.<br /> The man couldnโt be serious. MY mate, and my best friend couldnโt be seriously saying what I was hearing.<br /> โYou are saying this now, but it is only a matter of f** time before the two of you are suddenly lovers.โ Charlotte said, raising her voice at him.<br /> โToday, you are telling me this, you are angry that you are being forced into a relationship that you donโt want. You hate who she is and where she comes from and that is something that I understand. But that b** is smart and if she doesnโt manage to seduce you now, she will in the future. What am I going to be doing by then?โ<br /> โCharlotte, you know that I have my duties as Alphaโฆโ<br /> โYou are not the only Alpha out there.โ She said, and I watched through the crack of the door as he cupped her cheeks, pulling her closer to him.<br /> โYou know that being the Alpha of Alphas, I have my duties to fulfill. But trust my word, the last thing that I am going to do is look at an orphaned omega who was adopted by the Alpha and his Luna out of pity." He said.<br /> I opened the door, catching the two of them off guard as Dimitriโs eyes met mine. His eyes showed visible hatred, and for the first time since Iโve met her, Iโve seen the hate in my best friendโs gaze.<br /> โCharlotte, get out.โ Dimitri ordered, and the woman frowned.<br /> โDimitriโฆโ<br /> โI said a word.โ He said, stopping her. She looked down at her feet for a second before nodding as she took a step back. His eyes met mine and I shook my head in question.<br /> โWhy?โ<br /> โYou shouldnโt have expected any less.โ He said, taking me off guard. โSurely, you didnโt expect me to be with an orphan omega like yourself, did you?โ<br /> โThe two of us agreedโฆโ<br /> โI agreed and am still agreeing for both the benefit of MY pack and the public eye. But our mating would only be one for that.โ He said, and I looked down at my feet as he took a step toward me, โOne word of this, and I will be sure that you regret ever agreeing to the mating bond, am I making myself clear, Aurora?โ<br /> I walked out and close the door, knowing that he wouldnโt be able to follow me. Charlotteโs eyes met mine and I closed mine for a second.<br /> I walked back toward MY changing room. A sob escaped my lips and I watched as the door opened, revealing my mother, whose eyes widened in surprise at my sight.<br /> โAurora?โ She asked, shaking her head in question as she ran toward me. Two of the servants who were within the pack frowned at my sight, but she wouldnโt allow them in as a low growl escaped her chest. โAurora, child, what is going on?โ<br /> โHe is cheating on me with her.โ I said, looking away and mom frowned. โI heard them talking in his office, and he doesnโt even want to marry me. The man just wants me for his alliances, and I am going to be nothing more than aโฆโ<br /> โSurely, you didnโt expect any less, Aurora.โ She said, taking me off guard. The fact that her tone was now harder than it was made my chest burn. โYou are no pure blood, your father barely managed to arrange this agreement for all our safeties.โ<br /> โMamaโฆโ<br /> โDo not be stupid enough to think about backing out now.โ She said, making my heart race against my ribcage. If I thought or believed that anyone would be supporting me in this world, it would be her.<br /> โYou have been chosen to marry him to ensure that you live a decent and strong life, but if you are going to be acting like a toddler who had her toy taken away from her, the last thing that you would want is for your father to find out about this attitude.โ<br /> โI am not going to share a bed with a man who was just kissing my best friendโฆโ<br /> โYour best friend is a beta blood. She is of higher rank, and you know that very well.โ Mom said, and I gulped.<br /> โAs for sharing his bed, you are going to be doing as told, and as a GOOD mate would do. You are going to fulfill your duties as his mate. Otherwise, all your fatherโs efforts would be going in vain.โ<br /> โSo, I am just required to accept a fate that I did not even choose? One with a man who not only lied to me, but is to be having an affair with my best friend?โ<br /> โIf you choose to mess this up, I will be sure that an exile is the punishment that you dream of.โ She said, looking at me through the mirror. โTherefore, you are going to wash that face of yours and I will send in the cleaners, hair dressers, and makeup artists, and IF anyone hears of what happened here, I am going to be cutting that tongue for you, am I making myself clear?โ<br /> โYes, yes, you are.โ I said, wanting to wrap my hand around her wrist and she nodded.<br /> โGood, we are expecting you outside in an hour. And I expect to see a smile on your face when I see youโฆโ<br /> ##Chapter 2<br /> Dimitri:<br /> โAre you sure that she isnโt going to say a word?โ Charlotte asked, shaking her head in question. โYou know, it can get very ugly when it comes to the eldersโฆโ<br /> โYou know that I do not like being questioned, my love.โ I said, stopping Charlotte who took a deep breath before nodding. Her heart raced against her chest and I connected my lips with hers.<br /> โBe a doll and fix my tie for me.โ<br /> She nodded and grabbed my tie, fixing it, making sure to take her slow time as she tried killing it off as to spend the most of it with me before I walked out.<br /> โOne night and I will be by you side again, my love.โ Was the last thing that I told her before coming undone in the cond*. It was one thing to be her lover, but the two of us knew, and thankfully agreed, on the fact that we needed to be careful.<br /> โDimitri, where the hell were you? Weโve been looking everywhere.โ Mom asked, glaring at me. I cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead, wanting her to relax and she sighed. โI thought that you bailed.โ<br /> โYou know me better than that, mama.โ I said, my voice softening as I looked at her and she nodded at Aurora as she walked down the stairs.<br /> She wore a knee long white dress, and an elegant flower crown on her head. Her pack sigil was on a pendant around her neck, and when her eyes met mine, I couldnโt help but notice the frown that formed on her lips momentarily before she smiled.<br /> Her mother walked toward the staircase to look at her daughter, and I watched as Auroraโs eyes stayed on me, clearly avoiding the womanโs hard gaze.<br /> I extended my hand to her as she reached the bottom of the stairs and I watched as she hesitated for a moment before extending hers.<br /> I kissed her knuckle as the two of us rehearsed, and I couldnโt help the frown that formed on my lips when I saw her eyes glistening for a second before she took a deep breath as she forced a smile on her face.<br /> The woman was playing a dangerous game, and I knew that if she didnโt cut off the act, we would be in more trouble than we could afford.<br /> I pulled away and turned to the crowd, smiling when I saw that they had their attention on us. Charlotte, who stood in the front line, smiled and nodded at the two of us. Her eyes met mine for a second before she lowered her gaze to the ground as a small smile played on her lips.<br /> Soon, baby girl. Soonโฆ<br /> โI do suggest that you cut off the tears and replace them with a smile. We have guests watching, and the elders too.โ I said, and she shook her head at me.<br /> โI am curious about how you would feel if you were in my same shoes.โ She said, and I let out a low growl for her ears only. It was one of warning, and she looked down at her feet, avoiding my eyes.<br /> โI dare you to try, and I give you my word that I will be sure that you not only pay for it in private, but that I make you and your pack regret this.โ I said, whispering my words.<br /> She didnโt respond as the two of us reached the elders. Her heart raced and Lord Alpha Sirius looked at the two of us for a second too long before smiling.<br /> They would be the ones to elope our mating, and make it official.<br /> โAlpha Dimitri,โ he said, extending his hand toward me. I smiled and shook his. โI take it that the two of you are ready to elope?โ<br /> โIndeed, we are.โ I said, not waiting for Aurora to speak. It was customary that the Alpha or the person of higher rank, responded to the elders when spoken to, and that was when even she knew her limits when it came to responding to those who were of higher ranks.<br /> โWell, how about the two of you get ready, and we can proceed?โ He asked, smiling at the two of us. โI believe that the two of you are well aware that you are to perform the marital act before everything is finalized tonight. Therefore, I do recommend that we not delay you any longer as to get everything settled with tonight.โ<br /> โYou neednโt worry, Lord Alpha, we are to tend to everything tonight.โ I said before Aurora could open her mouth to say a word. She looked down at her feet, and the Lord Alpha chuckled.<br /> โIt seems to me that your little woman seems to be a little more or less nervous.โ He said, and Aurora blushed. โAnyhow, you have a few more minutes to mingle around with the guests. I will be informing the elders to prepare for you to say your vows.โ<br /> He walked away without waiting for us to say a word to respond, and I tightened my grip around Auroraโs waist.<br /> โOne mistake tonight, Aurora, and I give you my word that you are going to be wishing that you were never born.โ I said, lowering my voice to above a whisper before I leaned in to her ear. โAm making myself clear?โ<br /> ##Chapter 3<br /> Aurora:<br /> Our guests smiled at us, some cheering, others inviting us for drinks with them to have a small โchatโ as the two of us walked past them.<br /> โAurora,โ Charlotte called, taking me by surprise. I looked at her and she took my hands in hers before squeezing them gently. I knew that she was doing this for the public eye, especially since we were everyoneโs center of attention right now.<br /> โI didnโt see you before the ceremony, Iโm sorry.โ I said, trying my best to lie. She smiled, her smile both bright and devious, and I could swear that she and Dimitri shared a glance before she turned to look at me.<br /> โNo, no, donโt be.โ She said, squeezing my hands gently. โYou have no idea how happy I am for you.โ<br /> โI can tell that you are.โ I said, flinching slightly when Dimitri put his hand on my lower back.<br /> โI take it that I interrupted the two ladies?โ He asked, smiling at me, his eyes giving me his silent warning not to say anything about it.<br /> โNot at all, Alpha.โ She said, looking down at his feet, giving him a quick nod before looking up at him with the brightest smile.. โI was just coming to congratulate the two of you.โ<br /> I clenched my fist for a second before forcing myself to loosen my grip as I looked at Dimitri whose eyes were fixed on mine.<br /> โI am indeed lucky to have been able to win the most beautiful woman of them all.โ He said, nodding at the elders who were watching, and I smiled at him as he put his finger under my chin.<br /> โI take it that the two of you will be dismissing yourselves for the evening?โ Lord Alpha Jordan asked, approaching us. โYou know what has to be done--luna's MARKING, and the faster it is, the better the process.โ<br /> โWe have guests, Lord Alpha.โ I tried persuading, wanting to delay things as much as I could. The last thing that I wanted was to be having my first time like this.<br /> โI believe that they are all well aware of what is to happen, and would be dismissing themselves shortly, Aurora.โ Elder Jordan said, looking at me. โNow you have the choice of choosing five of the elders and your mothers being in the roomโฆโ<br /> โWhat?โ Dimitri asked, frowning in confusion.<br /> โYou know that it is in tradition for us to ensure that you two have mated. Therefore, you have the freedom of choice. Normally, it would have been the female elders, but considering that us as females are more than five, you have the right to choose.โ<br /> โSurely, we wouldnโt need anyone chaperoning over us while we mate.โ Dimitri said, taking my hand in his.<br /> โI would wish for privacy, Lord Alpha.โ I said, and he nodded.<br /> โThen it is granted.โ He said, looking at the two of us. โYou have an hour.โ<br /> โAn hour?โ Dimitri asked, and he raised an eyebrow.<br /> โOtherwise, you are to be chaperoned.โ He said, taking a step back toward the bar. โFifty-nine minutesโฆโ<br /> Dimitri wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me to the room and I looked at my mother one more time, watching as she glared at me not to make a mistake in this.<br /> In her mind, right now, I was nothing more than a girl to bring them their peace.<br /> Dimitri pushed me inside the room the second we walked in, and it took me a second not to stumble on my footing before I turned around to face him. His eyes met mine for a second before he leaned in to kiss me.<br /> I took a step back, flinching, and he chuckled, shaking his head at me.<br /> โI doubt that you would want the elders to be watching us.โ He stated, making my heart race. He kissed my neck, and I couldnโt help but find myself flinching for a second and he frowned.<br /> โWhat is your problem?โ He asked, glaring at me.<br /> โHow is Charlotte okay with this?โ I asked, and he raised his eyebrow at me, as if he couldn't believe I had the nerve to question him... | LEARN_MORE | https://website.literiess.com/share/middle/zfkrur0 | 191408094066694 | Read anytime | https://facebook.com/61556539658891 | 24 | 1 | 941,668,400,934,548 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Read anytime | 120206887183000576 | website.literiess.com | NONE | video | https://website.literiess.com/share/middle/zfkrur0mdwhvsrlymm5o3wei?ad_id={{ad.id}}&campaign={{campaign.name}}&adgroup={{adset.name}} | 2024-04-17 04:50 | https://scontent-atl3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/435662542_291524463995192_5816987677600408907_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=qO75eHI881cAb6tj_wT&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-2.xx&oh=00_AfA7hP7rEev6cQW0q1r665MpMq6SkZOZEXZI4VYleavvMg&oe=66274BCD | person_profile | 0 | Read anytime | https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/436442893_441680148362455_4982410024308029647_n.jpg?_nc_cat=100&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=okF6WyizycUAb5iVIrC&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCVJ736iYVtosxikfcOTB-VPAeTDneOaYKjDzXspFR_7Q&oe=66273024 | 0 | 3 | Read anytime | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-17 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Yes | 2024-04-18 14:47 | active | 553 | 0 | 923574449457273 | Read next chapter | Chapter1 Ex-girlfriend Returns<br /> "Congratulations! You are going to be a mom." all Raegan Hayes could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was her husband. They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group.<br /> <br /> Everything had happened so fast. Everything had happened so fast. She was newly employed in the company when they unexpectedly got married. <br /> <br /> At that time, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish.<br /> <br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public. Their union could be terminated at any time.<br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time.<br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed.<br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working.<br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years.<br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband.<br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the medical report.<br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel the truth.<br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then.<br /> <br /> The shower in the bathroom finally went off.<br /> <br /> Just then, Mitchelโs phone rang. He went to the balcony and answered the phone. <br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight.<br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this ungodly hour?<br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned and changed into formal attire. His handsome face which had a clear outline made him look dignified. <br /> <br /> He was something to see now.<br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally.<br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour?<br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the pregnancy test result tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him.<br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously.<br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other.<br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy. <br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry.<br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind. She couldn't sleep a wink. <br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone.<br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing.<br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture!<br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport?<br /> <br /> This realization settled like a boulder in Raegan's gut, rendering her flustered.<br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number.<br /> <br /> The dial tone brought her back to her senses. Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end.<br /> <br /> "Hello!"<br /> <br /> It was a particularly gentle woman's voice.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away.<br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores.<br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had.<br /> <br /> Matteo was the only Dixon Group employee who knew about their marriage.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office.<br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right?<br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good.<br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly.<br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice.<br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly.<br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears.<br /> <br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object.<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document.<br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again.<br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head.<br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice.<br /> <br /> The woman was indeed Lauren! <br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder!<br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart.<br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry.<br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside.<br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> Chapter2 One-sided Love<br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out.<br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome.<br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed?<br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance.<br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying.<br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone.<br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well.<br /> <br /> In the elevator.<br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work.<br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love.<br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream.<br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love.<br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened.<br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea.<br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside.<br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's nothing to Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her.<br /> <br /> The love was one-sided.<br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, has Mrs. Dixon finally woken up from her wild dream?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her.<br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping.<br /> <br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "Maybe itโs time for you to seek out another man, you pathetic fool."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, we are in the company, not a brothel. If you are interested in that kind of business, you know where to go."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan's retort made Tessa's face change. <br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of hot coffee on Raegan.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the hot liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee drenched her clothes. <br /> <br /> "Ouch!" Raegan frowned in pain. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers.<br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just an orphan? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> A crisp sound was heard all of a sudden.<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by a hot slap to her face.<br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would slap her.<br /> <br /> Tessa held her cheek and stared blankly for a while. Then, she stuttered, "You... You hit me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, Raegan lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it.<br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this.<br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, raising her hand up high to return the slap.<br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so tightly that the latter couldn't move another inch.<br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, Tessa struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap.<br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your hands on me? Who do you think you are?"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room.<br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo.<br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him.<br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan humiliated her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, she bullied me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at her clothes which were soaked with coffee. <br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> <br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears.<br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment.<br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure.<br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes.<br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand.<br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words.<br /> <br /> Was she truly insignificant to him?<br /> <br /> Scared to death by Mitchel's rage, the crowd soon dispersed. A few employees were bold enough to peep from a distance, unwilling to miss the good show.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's cold eyes made Raegan shiver from head to toe.<br /> <br /> Raegan pinched her palm to suppress her emotions as she looked at Tessa.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, Ms. Lloyd. As an employee of the Dixon Group, it was wrong of me to have hit you."<br /> <br /> Eyeing Raegan, Tessa raised her chin complacently. "Humph! Don't think you'll be let off the hook just by making a simple apology. I don't buy..."<br /> <br /> "The slap has nothing to do with the company. Personally, I refuse to apologize to you. Now, if you'd excuse me," Raegan chimed in.<br /> <br /> She then walked past Mitchel without sparing him another look.<br /> <br /> Tessa's face turned blue after hearing what Raegan said.<br /> <br /> Never in her years of being alive had she been so humiliated. She was always the bully, not the victim!<br /> <br /> The humiliation was so much that scolding Raegan wouldn't appease her anger. <br /> <br /> Pointing in Raegan's direction, Tessa shouted, "Mitchel, did you hear what that woman just said? She slapped me in the face, yet she's still so arrogant. Call her back. I have to teach her some manners!"<br /> <br /> Mitchel, staring at Raegan's thin back, had an ambiguous expression at this moment.<br /> <br /> "Enough!" he said coldly, raising his hand.<br /> <br /> As someone who lived and breathed drama and cruelty, Tessa didn't think Mitchel was partial to Raegan just now. She assumed that Mitchel didn't care about Raegan at all.<br /> <br /> Tessa gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Next time, I'll get someone to teach that woman a lesson."<br /> <br /> "Tessa!" Mitchel's tone and squint made it a reproof.<br /> <br /> Tessa trembled at once.<br /> <br /> With a somber face, Mitchel said, "I'll only say it once. Forget about what happened here today. Leave Raegan alone."<br /> <br /> The aura he exuded made her tongue go dry. All the vicious ideas she had in store against Raegan disappeared in an instant.<br /> <br /> She stammered, "Ok... Okay, got it..."<br /> <br /> Mitchel cast a cold glance at her and spoke to Matteo. "Irrelevant people wouldn't be allowed in here from today onwards."<br /> <br /> Without catching the drift, Tessa flattered Mitchel. "Nice call. This is a top company. Not everyone gains access in here."<br /> <br /> Matteo nodded to Mitchel and then walked over to Tessa. He gestured to the exit. "Ms. Lloyd, this way, please."<br /> <br /> It wasn't until this moment that Tessa realized that she was the irrelevant person Mitchel just mentioned. She tried to speak to him, but Matteo blocked her way. The security guards then threw her out.<br /> <br /> They showed her no mercy. Her struggle was useless.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Raegan got changed when she returned to her office.<br /> <br /> Her heart was filled with sadness as she thought of how Mitchel looked at her minutes ago.<br /> <br /> Closing hour soon rolled by.<br /> <br /> Raegan took her bag and headed for the exit. However, Matteo stopped her.<br /> <br /> He said, "Mr. Dixon has something urgent to deal with, so he asked me to drive you home."<br /> <br /> Raegan declined the ride without thinking twice.<br /> <br /> She was blind before, but now she could see through the situation.<br /> <br /> In Mitchel's eyes, she was just a nobody.<br /> <br /> How could Mitchel agree to accompany her to visit her grandmother when he didn't even care about her?<br /> <br /> Upon arriving at the hospital, Raegan saw that the nurse was about to feed her grandmother dinner. Raegan took the job over and did it by herself.<br /> <br /> All her life, her grandmother had been living in the countryside, enjoying a quiet life. Everything changed last month when her routine medical checkup showed that there was something wrong with her pancreas. Raegan insisted on bringing her to the city for better treatment.<br /> <br /> Her grandmother wasn't aware of her marriage to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> Raegan had planned to surprise her today. But as it turned out, that was no longer necessary.<br /> <br /> Raegan waited for her grandmother to fall asleep before she left. She walked out of the hospital and waited for a taxi.<br /> <br /> In the distance, a black luxury car pulled into the entrance of the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan's eyes lit up when she saw it. She recognized that car as Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> Did he come to pick her up?<br /> <br /> At this moment, she forgot all the pain she had been feeling.<br /> <br /> Were her thoughts about him all wrong? Did he care for her, contrary to the gossip?<br /> <br /> The door of the driver's side opened and Mitchel got out.<br /> <br /> Raegan started walking toward him with her heart brimming with joy.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had just walked over to the other side and carried a woman out of the car.<br /> <br /> Worry and compassion were written all over his handsome face.<br /> <br /> This wiped the smile on Raegan's face. Her heart sank.<br /> <br /> Chapter3 Let's Divorce<br /> Mitchel's tall and straight figure got closer and closer to Raegan. And then, without saying a word, he strode past Raegan.<br /> <br /> It was hard to tell if Mitchel saw Raegan or just ignored her.<br /> <br /> Regardless, Raegan noticed that the woman in his arms was the same one who had been photographed with him yesterday.<br /> <br /> She was Lauren.<br /> <br /> Raegan's shoes felt like they were made of lead as she walked away.<br /> <br /> She lost all awareness of her surroundings. She got into a taxi absentmindedly.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, the driver uttered, "Ma'am, where to?"<br /> <br /> Raegan was stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> She didn't want to go back to Serenity Villas. It was only a matter of time before that place stopped being her home.<br /> <br /> After a while, she replied, "Please take me to Crystal Bay."<br /> <br /> She had purchased an apartment at Crystal Bay after getting married to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> At the time, she had hopes of bringing her grandmother to the city, so she bought the apartment on mortgage. It wasn't that big, but it had more than enough space for two people.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't understand why she wanted to buy an apartment. He offered to give her a bigger one, but she declined.<br /> <br /> Looking back now, she realized that buying that apartment was the only wise decision she had ever made in the last two years.<br /> <br /> As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Mitchel standing in front of the door.<br /> <br /> His sleeves were rolled up casually, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone, which revealed his long neck and part of his collarbone. He was leaning on the wall by the door, his handsome face straight.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a moment.<br /> <br /> Why was he here? Didn't she see him at the hospital with Lauren? What brought him here?<br /> <br /> Their eyes met. With his coat draped over his arm and one of his hands in his pocket, Mitchel squinted at her.<br /> <br /> "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked, sounding a little grumpy like someone who hadn't slept in a long time.<br /> <br /> Raegan took out her phone and saw she had accidentally put it on DND.<br /> <br /> There were five missed calls from Mitchel.<br /> <br /> This marked the first time in their two-year marriage.<br /> <br /> Mitchel blew up her phone because he couldn't find her? Surprising!<br /> <br /> Before today, she would have been overjoyed by this. People would've thought she won the lottery.<br /> <br /> But now, she just threw her phone back into her bag, folded her arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it ring."<br /> <br /> Mitchel raised his hand to check the time on the watch, and said impatiently, "I've been looking for you for two hours."<br /> <br /> After arranging everything for Lauren, he returned home to find an empty house. He looked for Raegan everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he asked Matteo to check the surveillance footage of all the roads that led away from the company.<br /> <br /> He later found out that Raegan went to Crystal Bay without telling him.<br /> <br /> "Next time, tell me when you are coming here, okay? Let's go home now." After that, Mitchel walked toward the elevator without sparing her another glance.<br /> <br /> He meant to go back to Serenity Villas.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't move an inch. She just stared at his broad back.<br /> <br /> Mitchell turned around, only to see that Raegan hadn't taken a single step. He frowned and asked, "Can't you walk? Do you want me to carry you instead?"<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and said, "Let's divorce."<br /> <br /> "What do you mean?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately.<br /> <br /> "I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon."<br /> <br /> Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit.<br /> <br /> "We will be strangers?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel smiled coldly. "Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?"<br /> <br /> His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him.<br /> <br /> His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn't let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn't be more wrong...<br /> <br /> After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don't have to come here again."<br /> <br /> After saying that, Raegan couldn't help but burst into tears.<br /> <br /> How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time.<br /> <br /> Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go.<br /> <br /> His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, "If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I..."<br /> <br /> "No, this isn't about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now."<br /> <br /> A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn't come close to any.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door.<br /> <br /> Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness.<br /> <br /> He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist tightly.<br /> <br /> "Stop this, will you?"<br /> <br /> A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.<br /> <br /> He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire.<br /> <br /> "You have a fever?"<br /> <br /> Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly.<br /> <br /> This made the whole situation complicated.<br /> <br /> Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back.<br /> <br /> Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, "Where do you think you are going?"<br /> <br /> The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up.<br /> <br /> He then headed for the elevator.<br /> <br /> In a daze, Raegan asked softly, "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "What does it look like I am doing?" Mitchel remarked. "Taking you to the hospital, of course."<br /> <br /> "No way!" Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength.<br /> <br /> Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel's arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless.<br /> <br /> "Don't be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor," Mitchel said firmly.<br /> <br /> He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan's heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest. <br /> <br /> "Put me down! I don't want to go to the hospital!"<br /> <br /> Chapter4 Stay With Me<br /> Mitchel stopped and looked at Raegan's slender fingers grasping his shirt. His eyes darkened.<br /> <br /> "Why?"<br /> <br /> Raegan lowered her eyes and lied, "I... I don't like hospitals. There's something about them that scares me."<br /> <br /> She was so scared of being caught in that lie that she couldn't look him in the eye. Now, she didn't know if he believed her or not.<br /> <br /> When he didn't say anything, she added softly, "I have already taken some medicine. I'll be fine once I take some rest."<br /> <br /> Mitchel looked down. From his perspective, he could only see half of her beautiful face.<br /> <br /> Her face was so small, and her long curly eyelashes shook as she kept her eyes lowered. Perhaps the fever made her flush, making her look so fragile at the moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's heart melted against his will.<br /> <br /> Without thinking twice, he made a U-turn and opened the door of the apartment. He then took Raegan straight to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> Raegan breathed a sigh of relief. She had been so nervous just now that she got all sweaty. Even her hair was wet. All she wanted to do now was take a cool shower and go to bed.<br /> <br /> "I will be fine alone. You can leave now." She was clearly driving him away.<br /> <br /> This place was all new to Mitchel. After all, he had been used to living in a mansion all his life.<br /> <br /> "Okay," Mitchel uttered, but he didn't move an inch.<br /> <br /> She stood up. The sudden movement immediately made her head spin. She leaned backward and almost lost her balance.<br /> <br /> Fortunately, Mitchel caught her just in time and picked her up. He took her straight to the bathroom.<br /> <br /> He put her into the bathtub gently. <br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around.<br /> <br /> The door of the bathroom was soon slammed shut.<br /> <br /> After giving herself a good soak in the bathtub, Raegan felt much better. She walked out wearing only a bathrobe. To her surprise, Mitchel was still in the room.<br /> <br /> She did her best to ignore him. "What are you doing? Why do you want to go to bed with your hair wet?" he asked.<br /> <br /> With that, he unwrapped the small towel around her head, picked up the hair dryer, and got to work.<br /> <br /> Raegan's mind was a mess as she stared at their reflection in the mirror. <br /> <br /> Mitchel's care was torture for her now. She was afraid of falling for him even more. She might decide not to divorce anymore.<br /> <br /> Once her hair was all dry, she looked at his face through the mirror and thanked him softly.<br /> <br /> Mitchel remained standing behind her.<br /> <br /> With one hand on the washstand, Mitchel stared at her reflection in the mirror. The corners of his eyes slanted as he asked, "Is that all the thanks I'm gonna get?"<br /> <br /> She gawked at him with her eyes many sizes wider.<br /> <br /> Through the mirror, Mitchel could see how her eyes became misty and her nose became pink.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, he got a bit upset. <br /> <br /> Raegan's eyebrows knitted in confusion. <br /> <br /> His eyes darkened further as he added, "There are many men are not as nice as I am. Got it?"<br /> <br /> He sounded so serious.<br /> <br /> His statement made her short of words.<br /> <br /> What a nonsense!<br /> <br /> Raegan rolled her eyes with annoyance.<br /> <br /> Why did she let his tenderness take her breath away? How could she forget her decision so easily? She should get a grip!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Mitchel's phone rang, bringing her back to reality.<br /> <br /> She left quietly to make room for him.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Mitchel answered the phone and went to the balcony.<br /> <br /> He chatted on the phone for a while before hanging up and walking back to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> She knew he was about to leave, but she didn't try to stop him.<br /> <br /> "Close the door behind you," she said before he could utter a word.<br /> <br /> "Okay. Sleep tight." After saying that, Mitchel picked up his coat, walked to the door, and turned to glance at her before walking out.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she heard the door lock that Raegan inched her head from underneath the quilt.<br /> <br /> There was a turbulence in her heart at this time. Soon, she felt so bitter.<br /> <br /> Everyone knew that Lauren was the only woman that Mitchel loved.<br /> <br /> Did she stand a chance against that impressive woman?<br /> <br /> Would the baby change anything? Not a chance.<br /> <br /> She felt lucky that she hadn't told him about her pregnancy yet.<br /> <br /> After all, breaking the news would have only earned her more humiliation.<br /> <br /> Back in the hospital, Mitchel stood in front of the window that overlooked the beautiful night sky. The moonlight accentuated his straight features, making him look extremely outstanding.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel," Lauren called out as she lay on the bed nearby.<br /> <br /> Mitchel snapped out of his deep thoughts and turned to her. "How are you feeling now?"<br /> <br /> "I'm better now. I'm sorry to have bothered you again," Lauren said guiltily. "Jocelyn was making a fuss over nothing."<br /> <br /> Her face twisted pitifully as she spoke. It was as if she was reminding Mitchel how special she was to him.<br /> <br /> "Not a big deal." With no expression on his face, Mitchel asked lightly, "You hungry? I can ask Matteo to get you whatever you'd like to eat."<br /> <br /> "No, thanks." Lauren asked in a soft voice, "Where were you before? Did I interrupt something?"<br /> <br /> "Not at all," Mitchel replied calmly. He took a look at his watch and said, "It's late now. Go to sleep."<br /> <br /> "I'm so scared, Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Lauren suddenly wrapped her hands around Mitchel's waist from behind and sobbed with grievance. She buried her face into his back.<br /> <br /> "Stay with me, please. Just for tonight, okay?"<br /> <br /> ....<br /> &8& | LEARN_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-E | 111340554958658 | Romantic Novel Town | https://facebook.com/100083419995460 | 10,291 | 2 | 3,564,447,737,152,669 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Romantic Novel Town | 120208952939200644 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | video | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-ENJ57_8-Core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=295122&accid=716216763677319 | 2024-04-17 23:42 | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/436300464_967500444773812_8316521005356627238_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=706KJQ6p5f4Ab5YVi32&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfCyaRwAwBrfOoVEIgDvKLWunXy-CtJYlSOh2bHzVhgAUw&oe=66275770 | person_profile | 0 | moboreader | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/436362202_325024077264565_3368165844714994781_n.jpg?_nc_cat=110&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=kb2skPGcvKEAb68DCIh&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfDlOF38A6BxYOj6-KpL6KXoMdnTuumTOL4aapMYpWKnPA&oe=66273CFA | 0 | 3 | Romantic Novel Town | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Yes | 2024-04-18 14:47 | active | 553 | 0 | 1485340082413074 | Read next chapter | Chapter1 Ex-girlfriend Returns<br /> "Congratulations! You are going to be a mom." all Raegan Hayes could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was her husband. They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group.<br /> <br /> Everything had happened so fast. Everything had happened so fast. She was newly employed in the company when they unexpectedly got married. <br /> <br /> At that time, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish.<br /> <br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public. Their union could be terminated at any time.<br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time.<br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed.<br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working.<br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years.<br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband.<br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the medical report.<br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel the truth.<br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then.<br /> <br /> The shower in the bathroom finally went off.<br /> <br /> Just then, Mitchelโs phone rang. He went to the balcony and answered the phone. <br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight.<br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this ungodly hour?<br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned and changed into formal attire. His handsome face which had a clear outline made him look dignified. <br /> <br /> He was something to see now.<br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally.<br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour?<br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the pregnancy test result tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him.<br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously.<br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other.<br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy. <br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry.<br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind. She couldn't sleep a wink. <br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone.<br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing.<br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture!<br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport?<br /> <br /> This realization settled like a boulder in Raegan's gut, rendering her flustered.<br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number.<br /> <br /> The dial tone brought her back to her senses. Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end.<br /> <br /> "Hello!"<br /> <br /> It was a particularly gentle woman's voice.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away.<br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores.<br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had.<br /> <br /> Matteo was the only Dixon Group employee who knew about their marriage.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office.<br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right?<br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good.<br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly.<br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice.<br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly.<br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears.<br /> <br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object.<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document.<br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again.<br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head.<br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice.<br /> <br /> The woman was indeed Lauren! <br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder!<br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart.<br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry.<br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside.<br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> Chapter2 One-sided Love<br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out.<br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome.<br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed?<br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance.<br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying.<br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone.<br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well.<br /> <br /> In the elevator.<br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work.<br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love.<br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream.<br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love.<br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened.<br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea.<br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside.<br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's nothing to Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her.<br /> <br /> The love was one-sided.<br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, has Mrs. Dixon finally woken up from her wild dream?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her.<br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping.<br /> <br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "Maybe itโs time for you to seek out another man, you pathetic fool."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, we are in the company, not a brothel. If you are interested in that kind of business, you know where to go."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan's retort made Tessa's face change. <br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of hot coffee on Raegan.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the hot liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee drenched her clothes. <br /> <br /> "Ouch!" Raegan frowned in pain. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers.<br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just an orphan? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> A crisp sound was heard all of a sudden.<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by a hot slap to her face.<br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would slap her.<br /> <br /> Tessa held her cheek and stared blankly for a while. Then, she stuttered, "You... You hit me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, Raegan lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it.<br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this.<br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, raising her hand up high to return the slap.<br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so tightly that the latter couldn't move another inch.<br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, Tessa struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap.<br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your hands on me? Who do you think you are?"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room.<br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo.<br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him.<br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan humiliated her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, she bullied me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at her clothes which were soaked with coffee. <br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> <br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears.<br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment.<br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure.<br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes.<br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand.<br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words.<br /> <br /> Was she truly insignificant to him?<br /> <br /> Scared to death by Mitchel's rage, the crowd soon dispersed. A few employees were bold enough to peep from a distance, unwilling to miss the good show.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's cold eyes made Raegan shiver from head to toe.<br /> <br /> Raegan pinched her palm to suppress her emotions as she looked at Tessa.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, Ms. Lloyd. As an employee of the Dixon Group, it was wrong of me to have hit you."<br /> <br /> Eyeing Raegan, Tessa raised her chin complacently. "Humph! Don't think you'll be let off the hook just by making a simple apology. I don't buy..."<br /> <br /> "The slap has nothing to do with the company. Personally, I refuse to apologize to you. Now, if you'd excuse me," Raegan chimed in.<br /> <br /> She then walked past Mitchel without sparing him another look.<br /> <br /> Tessa's face turned blue after hearing what Raegan said.<br /> <br /> Never in her years of being alive had she been so humiliated. She was always the bully, not the victim!<br /> <br /> The humiliation was so much that scolding Raegan wouldn't appease her anger. <br /> <br /> Pointing in Raegan's direction, Tessa shouted, "Mitchel, did you hear what that woman just said? She slapped me in the face, yet she's still so arrogant. Call her back. I have to teach her some manners!"<br /> <br /> Mitchel, staring at Raegan's thin back, had an ambiguous expression at this moment.<br /> <br /> "Enough!" he said coldly, raising his hand.<br /> <br /> As someone who lived and breathed drama and cruelty, Tessa didn't think Mitchel was partial to Raegan just now. She assumed that Mitchel didn't care about Raegan at all.<br /> <br /> Tessa gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Next time, I'll get someone to teach that woman a lesson."<br /> <br /> "Tessa!" Mitchel's tone and squint made it a reproof.<br /> <br /> Tessa trembled at once.<br /> <br /> With a somber face, Mitchel said, "I'll only say it once. Forget about what happened here today. Leave Raegan alone."<br /> <br /> The aura he exuded made her tongue go dry. All the vicious ideas she had in store against Raegan disappeared in an instant.<br /> <br /> She stammered, "Ok... Okay, got it..."<br /> <br /> Mitchel cast a cold glance at her and spoke to Matteo. "Irrelevant people wouldn't be allowed in here from today onwards."<br /> <br /> Without catching the drift, Tessa flattered Mitchel. "Nice call. This is a top company. Not everyone gains access in here."<br /> <br /> Matteo nodded to Mitchel and then walked over to Tessa. He gestured to the exit. "Ms. Lloyd, this way, please."<br /> <br /> It wasn't until this moment that Tessa realized that she was the irrelevant person Mitchel just mentioned. She tried to speak to him, but Matteo blocked her way. The security guards then threw her out.<br /> <br /> They showed her no mercy. Her struggle was useless.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Raegan got changed when she returned to her office.<br /> <br /> Her heart was filled with sadness as she thought of how Mitchel looked at her minutes ago.<br /> <br /> Closing hour soon rolled by.<br /> <br /> Raegan took her bag and headed for the exit. However, Matteo stopped her.<br /> <br /> He said, "Mr. Dixon has something urgent to deal with, so he asked me to drive you home."<br /> <br /> Raegan declined the ride without thinking twice.<br /> <br /> She was blind before, but now she could see through the situation.<br /> <br /> In Mitchel's eyes, she was just a nobody.<br /> <br /> How could Mitchel agree to accompany her to visit her grandmother when he didn't even care about her?<br /> <br /> Upon arriving at the hospital, Raegan saw that the nurse was about to feed her grandmother dinner. Raegan took the job over and did it by herself.<br /> <br /> All her life, her grandmother had been living in the countryside, enjoying a quiet life. Everything changed last month when her routine medical checkup showed that there was something wrong with her pancreas. Raegan insisted on bringing her to the city for better treatment.<br /> <br /> Her grandmother wasn't aware of her marriage to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> Raegan had planned to surprise her today. But as it turned out, that was no longer necessary.<br /> <br /> Raegan waited for her grandmother to fall asleep before she left. She walked out of the hospital and waited for a taxi.<br /> <br /> In the distance, a black luxury car pulled into the entrance of the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan's eyes lit up when she saw it. She recognized that car as Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> Did he come to pick her up?<br /> <br /> At this moment, she forgot all the pain she had been feeling.<br /> <br /> Were her thoughts about him all wrong? Did he care for her, contrary to the gossip?<br /> <br /> The door of the driver's side opened and Mitchel got out.<br /> <br /> Raegan started walking toward him with her heart brimming with joy.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had just walked over to the other side and carried a woman out of the car.<br /> <br /> Worry and compassion were written all over his handsome face.<br /> <br /> This wiped the smile on Raegan's face. Her heart sank.<br /> <br /> Chapter3 Let's Divorce<br /> Mitchel's tall and straight figure got closer and closer to Raegan. And then, without saying a word, he strode past Raegan.<br /> <br /> It was hard to tell if Mitchel saw Raegan or just ignored her.<br /> <br /> Regardless, Raegan noticed that the woman in his arms was the same one who had been photographed with him yesterday.<br /> <br /> She was Lauren.<br /> <br /> Raegan's shoes felt like they were made of lead as she walked away.<br /> <br /> She lost all awareness of her surroundings. She got into a taxi absentmindedly.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, the driver uttered, "Ma'am, where to?"<br /> <br /> Raegan was stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> She didn't want to go back to Serenity Villas. It was only a matter of time before that place stopped being her home.<br /> <br /> After a while, she replied, "Please take me to Crystal Bay."<br /> <br /> She had purchased an apartment at Crystal Bay after getting married to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> At the time, she had hopes of bringing her grandmother to the city, so she bought the apartment on mortgage. It wasn't that big, but it had more than enough space for two people.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't understand why she wanted to buy an apartment. He offered to give her a bigger one, but she declined.<br /> <br /> Looking back now, she realized that buying that apartment was the only wise decision she had ever made in the last two years.<br /> <br /> As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Mitchel standing in front of the door.<br /> <br /> His sleeves were rolled up casually, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone, which revealed his long neck and part of his collarbone. He was leaning on the wall by the door, his handsome face straight.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a moment.<br /> <br /> Why was he here? Didn't she see him at the hospital with Lauren? What brought him here?<br /> <br /> Their eyes met. With his coat draped over his arm and one of his hands in his pocket, Mitchel squinted at her.<br /> <br /> "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked, sounding a little grumpy like someone who hadn't slept in a long time.<br /> <br /> Raegan took out her phone and saw she had accidentally put it on DND.<br /> <br /> There were five missed calls from Mitchel.<br /> <br /> This marked the first time in their two-year marriage.<br /> <br /> Mitchel blew up her phone because he couldn't find her? Surprising!<br /> <br /> Before today, she would have been overjoyed by this. People would've thought she won the lottery.<br /> <br /> But now, she just threw her phone back into her bag, folded her arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it ring."<br /> <br /> Mitchel raised his hand to check the time on the watch, and said impatiently, "I've been looking for you for two hours."<br /> <br /> After arranging everything for Lauren, he returned home to find an empty house. He looked for Raegan everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he asked Matteo to check the surveillance footage of all the roads that led away from the company.<br /> <br /> He later found out that Raegan went to Crystal Bay without telling him.<br /> <br /> "Next time, tell me when you are coming here, okay? Let's go home now." After that, Mitchel walked toward the elevator without sparing her another glance.<br /> <br /> He meant to go back to Serenity Villas.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't move an inch. She just stared at his broad back.<br /> <br /> Mitchell turned around, only to see that Raegan hadn't taken a single step. He frowned and asked, "Can't you walk? Do you want me to carry you instead?"<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and said, "Let's divorce."<br /> <br /> "What do you mean?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately.<br /> <br /> "I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon."<br /> <br /> Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit.<br /> <br /> "We will be strangers?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel smiled coldly. "Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?"<br /> <br /> His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him.<br /> <br /> His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn't let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn't be more wrong...<br /> <br /> After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don't have to come here again."<br /> <br /> After saying that, Raegan couldn't help but burst into tears.<br /> <br /> How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time.<br /> <br /> Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go.<br /> <br /> His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, "If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I..."<br /> <br /> "No, this isn't about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now."<br /> <br /> A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn't come close to any.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door.<br /> <br /> Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness.<br /> <br /> He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist tightly.<br /> <br /> "Stop this, will you?"<br /> <br /> A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.<br /> <br /> He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire.<br /> <br /> "You have a fever?"<br /> <br /> Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly.<br /> <br /> This made the whole situation complicated.<br /> <br /> Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back.<br /> <br /> Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, "Where do you think you are going?"<br /> <br /> The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up.<br /> <br /> He then headed for the elevator.<br /> <br /> In a daze, Raegan asked softly, "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "What does it look like I am doing?" Mitchel remarked. "Taking you to the hospital, of course."<br /> <br /> "No way!" Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength.<br /> <br /> Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel's arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless.<br /> <br /> "Don't be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor," Mitchel said firmly.<br /> <br /> He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan's heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest. <br /> <br /> "Put me down! I don't want to go to the hospital!"<br /> <br /> Chapter4 Stay With Me<br /> Mitchel stopped and looked at Raegan's slender fingers grasping his shirt. His eyes darkened.<br /> <br /> "Why?"<br /> <br /> Raegan lowered her eyes and lied, "I... I don't like hospitals. There's something about them that scares me."<br /> <br /> She was so scared of being caught in that lie that she couldn't look him in the eye. Now, she didn't know if he believed her or not.<br /> <br /> When he didn't say anything, she added softly, "I have already taken some medicine. I'll be fine once I take some rest."<br /> <br /> Mitchel looked down. From his perspective, he could only see half of her beautiful face.<br /> <br /> Her face was so small, and her long curly eyelashes shook as she kept her eyes lowered. Perhaps the fever made her flush, making her look so fragile at the moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's heart melted against his will.<br /> <br /> Without thinking twice, he made a U-turn and opened the door of the apartment. He then took Raegan straight to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> Raegan breathed a sigh of relief. She had been so nervous just now that she got all sweaty. Even her hair was wet. All she wanted to do now was take a cool shower and go to bed.<br /> <br /> "I will be fine alone. You can leave now." She was clearly driving him away.<br /> <br /> This place was all new to Mitchel. After all, he had been used to living in a mansion all his life.<br /> <br /> "Okay," Mitchel uttered, but he didn't move an inch.<br /> <br /> She stood up. The sudden movement immediately made her head spin. She leaned backward and almost lost her balance.<br /> <br /> Fortunately, Mitchel caught her just in time and picked her up. He took her straight to the bathroom.<br /> <br /> He put her into the bathtub gently. <br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around.<br /> <br /> The door of the bathroom was soon slammed shut.<br /> <br /> After giving herself a good soak in the bathtub, Raegan felt much better. She walked out wearing only a bathrobe. To her surprise, Mitchel was still in the room.<br /> <br /> She did her best to ignore him. "What are you doing? Why do you want to go to bed with your hair wet?" he asked.<br /> <br /> With that, he unwrapped the small towel around her head, picked up the hair dryer, and got to work.<br /> <br /> Raegan's mind was a mess as she stared at their reflection in the mirror. <br /> <br /> Mitchel's care was torture for her now. She was afraid of falling for him even more. She might decide not to divorce anymore.<br /> <br /> Once her hair was all dry, she looked at his face through the mirror and thanked him softly.<br /> <br /> Mitchel remained standing behind her.<br /> <br /> With one hand on the washstand, Mitchel stared at her reflection in the mirror. The corners of his eyes slanted as he asked, "Is that all the thanks I'm gonna get?"<br /> <br /> She gawked at him with her eyes many sizes wider.<br /> <br /> Through the mirror, Mitchel could see how her eyes became misty and her nose became pink.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, he got a bit upset. <br /> <br /> Raegan's eyebrows knitted in confusion. <br /> <br /> His eyes darkened further as he added, "There are many men are not as nice as I am. Got it?"<br /> <br /> He sounded so serious.<br /> <br /> His statement made her short of words.<br /> <br /> What a nonsense!<br /> <br /> Raegan rolled her eyes with annoyance.<br /> <br /> Why did she let his tenderness take her breath away? How could she forget her decision so easily? She should get a grip!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Mitchel's phone rang, bringing her back to reality.<br /> <br /> She left quietly to make room for him.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Mitchel answered the phone and went to the balcony.<br /> <br /> He chatted on the phone for a while before hanging up and walking back to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> She knew he was about to leave, but she didn't try to stop him.<br /> <br /> "Close the door behind you," she said before he could utter a word.<br /> <br /> "Okay. Sleep tight." After saying that, Mitchel picked up his coat, walked to the door, and turned to glance at her before walking out.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she heard the door lock that Raegan inched her head from underneath the quilt.<br /> <br /> There was a turbulence in her heart at this time. Soon, she felt so bitter.<br /> <br /> Everyone knew that Lauren was the only woman that Mitchel loved.<br /> <br /> Did she stand a chance against that impressive woman?<br /> <br /> Would the baby change anything? Not a chance.<br /> <br /> She felt lucky that she hadn't told him about her pregnancy yet.<br /> <br /> After all, breaking the news would have only earned her more humiliation.<br /> <br /> Back in the hospital, Mitchel stood in front of the window that overlooked the beautiful night sky. The moonlight accentuated his straight features, making him look extremely outstanding.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel," Lauren called out as she lay on the bed nearby.<br /> <br /> Mitchel snapped out of his deep thoughts and turned to her. "How are you feeling now?"<br /> <br /> "I'm better now. I'm sorry to have bothered you again," Lauren said guiltily. "Jocelyn was making a fuss over nothing."<br /> <br /> Her face twisted pitifully as she spoke. It was as if she was reminding Mitchel how special she was to him.<br /> <br /> "Not a big deal." With no expression on his face, Mitchel asked lightly, "You hungry? I can ask Matteo to get you whatever you'd like to eat."<br /> <br /> "No, thanks." Lauren asked in a soft voice, "Where were you before? Did I interrupt something?"<br /> <br /> "Not at all," Mitchel replied calmly. He took a look at his watch and said, "It's late now. Go to sleep."<br /> <br /> "I'm so scared, Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Lauren suddenly wrapped her hands around Mitchel's waist from behind and sobbed with grievance. She buried her face into his back.<br /> <br /> "Stay with me, please. Just for tonight, okay?"<br /> <br /> ....<br /> &8& | LEARN_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-E | 111340554958658 | Romantic Novel Town | https://facebook.com/100083419995460 | 10,291 | 1 | 1,571,799,503,382,038 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Romantic Novel Town | 120208953083530644 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | video | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-ENJ57_8-Core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=295122&accid=716216763677319 | 2024-04-17 23:46 | https://scontent-ord5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/437569020_465384015925438_8828792446911822979_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=-1S5IXetRLUAb68U_Hw&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-1.xx&oh=00_AfBMa0OWuHXtxs3Mj88KG5d4DTPeOM8wcnAnXZV6V2ehag&oe=6627313B | person_profile | 0 | moboreader | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/436223256_7688161614561337_7667540164754988906_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=85bf7U8SQdoAb7tcj0r&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfATRdnPe8yELwZ0FGBCQwn8oJ1Gg9UryboYtNUzqfgF3w&oe=66276397 | 0 | 3 | Romantic Novel Town | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Yes | 2024-04-18 14:47 | active | 553 | 0 | 1378836542819250 | Read next chapter | Chapter1 Ex-girlfriend Returns<br /> "Congratulations! You are going to be a mom." all Raegan Hayes could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was her husband. They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group.<br /> <br /> Everything had happened so fast. Everything had happened so fast. She was newly employed in the company when they unexpectedly got married. <br /> <br /> At that time, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish.<br /> <br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public. Their union could be terminated at any time.<br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time.<br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed.<br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working.<br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years.<br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband.<br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the medical report.<br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel the truth.<br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then.<br /> <br /> The shower in the bathroom finally went off.<br /> <br /> Just then, Mitchelโs phone rang. He went to the balcony and answered the phone. <br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight.<br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this ungodly hour?<br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned and changed into formal attire. His handsome face which had a clear outline made him look dignified. <br /> <br /> He was something to see now.<br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally.<br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour?<br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the pregnancy test result tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him.<br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously.<br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other.<br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy. <br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry.<br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind. She couldn't sleep a wink. <br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone.<br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing.<br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture!<br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport?<br /> <br /> This realization settled like a boulder in Raegan's gut, rendering her flustered.<br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number.<br /> <br /> The dial tone brought her back to her senses. Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end.<br /> <br /> "Hello!"<br /> <br /> It was a particularly gentle woman's voice.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away.<br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores.<br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had.<br /> <br /> Matteo was the only Dixon Group employee who knew about their marriage.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office.<br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right?<br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good.<br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly.<br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice.<br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly.<br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears.<br /> <br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object.<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document.<br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again.<br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head.<br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice.<br /> <br /> The woman was indeed Lauren! <br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder!<br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart.<br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry.<br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside.<br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> Chapter2 One-sided Love<br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out.<br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome.<br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed?<br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance.<br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying.<br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone.<br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well.<br /> <br /> In the elevator.<br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work.<br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love.<br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream.<br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love.<br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened.<br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea.<br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside.<br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's nothing to Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her.<br /> <br /> The love was one-sided.<br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, has Mrs. Dixon finally woken up from her wild dream?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her.<br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping.<br /> <br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "Maybe itโs time for you to seek out another man, you pathetic fool."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, we are in the company, not a brothel. If you are interested in that kind of business, you know where to go."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan's retort made Tessa's face change. <br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of hot coffee on Raegan.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the hot liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee drenched her clothes. <br /> <br /> "Ouch!" Raegan frowned in pain. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers.<br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just an orphan? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> A crisp sound was heard all of a sudden.<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by a hot slap to her face.<br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would slap her.<br /> <br /> Tessa held her cheek and stared blankly for a while. Then, she stuttered, "You... You hit me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, Raegan lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it.<br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this.<br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, raising her hand up high to return the slap.<br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so tightly that the latter couldn't move another inch.<br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, Tessa struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap.<br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your hands on me? Who do you think you are?"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room.<br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo.<br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him.<br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan humiliated her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, she bullied me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at her clothes which were soaked with coffee. <br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> <br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears.<br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment.<br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure.<br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes.<br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand.<br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words.<br /> <br /> Was she truly insignificant to him?<br /> <br /> Scared to death by Mitchel's rage, the crowd soon dispersed. A few employees were bold enough to peep from a distance, unwilling to miss the good show.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's cold eyes made Raegan shiver from head to toe.<br /> <br /> Raegan pinched her palm to suppress her emotions as she looked at Tessa.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, Ms. Lloyd. As an employee of the Dixon Group, it was wrong of me to have hit you."<br /> <br /> Eyeing Raegan, Tessa raised her chin complacently. "Humph! Don't think you'll be let off the hook just by making a simple apology. I don't buy..."<br /> <br /> "The slap has nothing to do with the company. Personally, I refuse to apologize to you. Now, if you'd excuse me," Raegan chimed in.<br /> <br /> She then walked past Mitchel without sparing him another look.<br /> <br /> Tessa's face turned blue after hearing what Raegan said.<br /> <br /> Never in her years of being alive had she been so humiliated. She was always the bully, not the victim!<br /> <br /> The humiliation was so much that scolding Raegan wouldn't appease her anger. <br /> <br /> Pointing in Raegan's direction, Tessa shouted, "Mitchel, did you hear what that woman just said? She slapped me in the face, yet she's still so arrogant. Call her back. I have to teach her some manners!"<br /> <br /> Mitchel, staring at Raegan's thin back, had an ambiguous expression at this moment.<br /> <br /> "Enough!" he said coldly, raising his hand.<br /> <br /> As someone who lived and breathed drama and cruelty, Tessa didn't think Mitchel was partial to Raegan just now. She assumed that Mitchel didn't care about Raegan at all.<br /> <br /> Tessa gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Next time, I'll get someone to teach that woman a lesson."<br /> <br /> "Tessa!" Mitchel's tone and squint made it a reproof.<br /> <br /> Tessa trembled at once.<br /> <br /> With a somber face, Mitchel said, "I'll only say it once. Forget about what happened here today. Leave Raegan alone."<br /> <br /> The aura he exuded made her tongue go dry. All the vicious ideas she had in store against Raegan disappeared in an instant.<br /> <br /> She stammered, "Ok... Okay, got it..."<br /> <br /> Mitchel cast a cold glance at her and spoke to Matteo. "Irrelevant people wouldn't be allowed in here from today onwards."<br /> <br /> Without catching the drift, Tessa flattered Mitchel. "Nice call. This is a top company. Not everyone gains access in here."<br /> <br /> Matteo nodded to Mitchel and then walked over to Tessa. He gestured to the exit. "Ms. Lloyd, this way, please."<br /> <br /> It wasn't until this moment that Tessa realized that she was the irrelevant person Mitchel just mentioned. She tried to speak to him, but Matteo blocked her way. The security guards then threw her out.<br /> <br /> They showed her no mercy. Her struggle was useless.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Raegan got changed when she returned to her office.<br /> <br /> Her heart was filled with sadness as she thought of how Mitchel looked at her minutes ago.<br /> <br /> Closing hour soon rolled by.<br /> <br /> Raegan took her bag and headed for the exit. However, Matteo stopped her.<br /> <br /> He said, "Mr. Dixon has something urgent to deal with, so he asked me to drive you home."<br /> <br /> Raegan declined the ride without thinking twice.<br /> <br /> She was blind before, but now she could see through the situation.<br /> <br /> In Mitchel's eyes, she was just a nobody.<br /> <br /> How could Mitchel agree to accompany her to visit her grandmother when he didn't even care about her?<br /> <br /> Upon arriving at the hospital, Raegan saw that the nurse was about to feed her grandmother dinner. Raegan took the job over and did it by herself.<br /> <br /> All her life, her grandmother had been living in the countryside, enjoying a quiet life. Everything changed last month when her routine medical checkup showed that there was something wrong with her pancreas. Raegan insisted on bringing her to the city for better treatment.<br /> <br /> Her grandmother wasn't aware of her marriage to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> Raegan had planned to surprise her today. But as it turned out, that was no longer necessary.<br /> <br /> Raegan waited for her grandmother to fall asleep before she left. She walked out of the hospital and waited for a taxi.<br /> <br /> In the distance, a black luxury car pulled into the entrance of the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan's eyes lit up when she saw it. She recognized that car as Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> Did he come to pick her up?<br /> <br /> At this moment, she forgot all the pain she had been feeling.<br /> <br /> Were her thoughts about him all wrong? Did he care for her, contrary to the gossip?<br /> <br /> The door of the driver's side opened and Mitchel got out.<br /> <br /> Raegan started walking toward him with her heart brimming with joy.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had just walked over to the other side and carried a woman out of the car.<br /> <br /> Worry and compassion were written all over his handsome face.<br /> <br /> This wiped the smile on Raegan's face. Her heart sank.<br /> <br /> Chapter3 Let's Divorce<br /> Mitchel's tall and straight figure got closer and closer to Raegan. And then, without saying a word, he strode past Raegan.<br /> <br /> It was hard to tell if Mitchel saw Raegan or just ignored her.<br /> <br /> Regardless, Raegan noticed that the woman in his arms was the same one who had been photographed with him yesterday.<br /> <br /> She was Lauren.<br /> <br /> Raegan's shoes felt like they were made of lead as she walked away.<br /> <br /> She lost all awareness of her surroundings. She got into a taxi absentmindedly.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, the driver uttered, "Ma'am, where to?"<br /> <br /> Raegan was stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> She didn't want to go back to Serenity Villas. It was only a matter of time before that place stopped being her home.<br /> <br /> After a while, she replied, "Please take me to Crystal Bay."<br /> <br /> She had purchased an apartment at Crystal Bay after getting married to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> At the time, she had hopes of bringing her grandmother to the city, so she bought the apartment on mortgage. It wasn't that big, but it had more than enough space for two people.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't understand why she wanted to buy an apartment. He offered to give her a bigger one, but she declined.<br /> <br /> Looking back now, she realized that buying that apartment was the only wise decision she had ever made in the last two years.<br /> <br /> As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Mitchel standing in front of the door.<br /> <br /> His sleeves were rolled up casually, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone, which revealed his long neck and part of his collarbone. He was leaning on the wall by the door, his handsome face straight.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a moment.<br /> <br /> Why was he here? Didn't she see him at the hospital with Lauren? What brought him here?<br /> <br /> Their eyes met. With his coat draped over his arm and one of his hands in his pocket, Mitchel squinted at her.<br /> <br /> "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked, sounding a little grumpy like someone who hadn't slept in a long time.<br /> <br /> Raegan took out her phone and saw she had accidentally put it on DND.<br /> <br /> There were five missed calls from Mitchel.<br /> <br /> This marked the first time in their two-year marriage.<br /> <br /> Mitchel blew up her phone because he couldn't find her? Surprising!<br /> <br /> Before today, she would have been overjoyed by this. People would've thought she won the lottery.<br /> <br /> But now, she just threw her phone back into her bag, folded her arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it ring."<br /> <br /> Mitchel raised his hand to check the time on the watch, and said impatiently, "I've been looking for you for two hours."<br /> <br /> After arranging everything for Lauren, he returned home to find an empty house. He looked for Raegan everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he asked Matteo to check the surveillance footage of all the roads that led away from the company.<br /> <br /> He later found out that Raegan went to Crystal Bay without telling him.<br /> <br /> "Next time, tell me when you are coming here, okay? Let's go home now." After that, Mitchel walked toward the elevator without sparing her another glance.<br /> <br /> He meant to go back to Serenity Villas.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't move an inch. She just stared at his broad back.<br /> <br /> Mitchell turned around, only to see that Raegan hadn't taken a single step. He frowned and asked, "Can't you walk? Do you want me to carry you instead?"<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and said, "Let's divorce."<br /> <br /> "What do you mean?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately.<br /> <br /> "I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon."<br /> <br /> Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit.<br /> <br /> "We will be strangers?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel smiled coldly. "Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?"<br /> <br /> His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him.<br /> <br /> His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn't let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn't be more wrong...<br /> <br /> After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don't have to come here again."<br /> <br /> After saying that, Raegan couldn't help but burst into tears.<br /> <br /> How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time.<br /> <br /> Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go.<br /> <br /> His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, "If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I..."<br /> <br /> "No, this isn't about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now."<br /> <br /> A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn't come close to any.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door.<br /> <br /> Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness.<br /> <br /> He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist tightly.<br /> <br /> "Stop this, will you?"<br /> <br /> A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.<br /> <br /> He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire.<br /> <br /> "You have a fever?"<br /> <br /> Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly.<br /> <br /> This made the whole situation complicated.<br /> <br /> Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back.<br /> <br /> Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, "Where do you think you are going?"<br /> <br /> The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up.<br /> <br /> He then headed for the elevator.<br /> <br /> In a daze, Raegan asked softly, "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "What does it look like I am doing?" Mitchel remarked. "Taking you to the hospital, of course."<br /> <br /> "No way!" Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength.<br /> <br /> Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel's arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless.<br /> <br /> "Don't be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor," Mitchel said firmly.<br /> <br /> He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan's heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest. <br /> <br /> "Put me down! I don't want to go to the hospital!"<br /> <br /> Chapter4 Stay With Me<br /> Mitchel stopped and looked at Raegan's slender fingers grasping his shirt. His eyes darkened.<br /> <br /> "Why?"<br /> <br /> Raegan lowered her eyes and lied, "I... I don't like hospitals. There's something about them that scares me."<br /> <br /> She was so scared of being caught in that lie that she couldn't look him in the eye. Now, she didn't know if he believed her or not.<br /> <br /> When he didn't say anything, she added softly, "I have already taken some medicine. I'll be fine once I take some rest."<br /> <br /> Mitchel looked down. From his perspective, he could only see half of her beautiful face.<br /> <br /> Her face was so small, and her long curly eyelashes shook as she kept her eyes lowered. Perhaps the fever made her flush, making her look so fragile at the moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's heart melted against his will.<br /> <br /> Without thinking twice, he made a U-turn and opened the door of the apartment. He then took Raegan straight to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> Raegan breathed a sigh of relief. She had been so nervous just now that she got all sweaty. Even her hair was wet. All she wanted to do now was take a cool shower and go to bed.<br /> <br /> "I will be fine alone. You can leave now." She was clearly driving him away.<br /> <br /> This place was all new to Mitchel. After all, he had been used to living in a mansion all his life.<br /> <br /> "Okay," Mitchel uttered, but he didn't move an inch.<br /> <br /> She stood up. The sudden movement immediately made her head spin. She leaned backward and almost lost her balance.<br /> <br /> Fortunately, Mitchel caught her just in time and picked her up. He took her straight to the bathroom.<br /> <br /> He put her into the bathtub gently. <br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around.<br /> <br /> The door of the bathroom was soon slammed shut.<br /> <br /> After giving herself a good soak in the bathtub, Raegan felt much better. She walked out wearing only a bathrobe. To her surprise, Mitchel was still in the room.<br /> <br /> She did her best to ignore him. "What are you doing? Why do you want to go to bed with your hair wet?" he asked.<br /> <br /> With that, he unwrapped the small towel around her head, picked up the hair dryer, and got to work.<br /> <br /> Raegan's mind was a mess as she stared at their reflection in the mirror. <br /> <br /> Mitchel's care was torture for her now. She was afraid of falling for him even more. She might decide not to divorce anymore.<br /> <br /> Once her hair was all dry, she looked at his face through the mirror and thanked him softly.<br /> <br /> Mitchel remained standing behind her.<br /> <br /> With one hand on the washstand, Mitchel stared at her reflection in the mirror. The corners of his eyes slanted as he asked, "Is that all the thanks I'm gonna get?"<br /> <br /> She gawked at him with her eyes many sizes wider.<br /> <br /> Through the mirror, Mitchel could see how her eyes became misty and her nose became pink.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, he got a bit upset. <br /> <br /> Raegan's eyebrows knitted in confusion. <br /> <br /> His eyes darkened further as he added, "There are many men are not as nice as I am. Got it?"<br /> <br /> He sounded so serious.<br /> <br /> His statement made her short of words.<br /> <br /> What a nonsense!<br /> <br /> Raegan rolled her eyes with annoyance.<br /> <br /> Why did she let his tenderness take her breath away? How could she forget her decision so easily? She should get a grip!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Mitchel's phone rang, bringing her back to reality.<br /> <br /> She left quietly to make room for him.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Mitchel answered the phone and went to the balcony.<br /> <br /> He chatted on the phone for a while before hanging up and walking back to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> She knew he was about to leave, but she didn't try to stop him.<br /> <br /> "Close the door behind you," she said before he could utter a word.<br /> <br /> "Okay. Sleep tight." After saying that, Mitchel picked up his coat, walked to the door, and turned to glance at her before walking out.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she heard the door lock that Raegan inched her head from underneath the quilt.<br /> <br /> There was a turbulence in her heart at this time. Soon, she felt so bitter.<br /> <br /> Everyone knew that Lauren was the only woman that Mitchel loved.<br /> <br /> Did she stand a chance against that impressive woman?<br /> <br /> Would the baby change anything? Not a chance.<br /> <br /> She felt lucky that she hadn't told him about her pregnancy yet.<br /> <br /> After all, breaking the news would have only earned her more humiliation.<br /> <br /> Back in the hospital, Mitchel stood in front of the window that overlooked the beautiful night sky. The moonlight accentuated his straight features, making him look extremely outstanding.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel," Lauren called out as she lay on the bed nearby.<br /> <br /> Mitchel snapped out of his deep thoughts and turned to her. "How are you feeling now?"<br /> <br /> "I'm better now. I'm sorry to have bothered you again," Lauren said guiltily. "Jocelyn was making a fuss over nothing."<br /> <br /> Her face twisted pitifully as she spoke. It was as if she was reminding Mitchel how special she was to him.<br /> <br /> "Not a big deal." With no expression on his face, Mitchel asked lightly, "You hungry? I can ask Matteo to get you whatever you'd like to eat."<br /> <br /> "No, thanks." Lauren asked in a soft voice, "Where were you before? Did I interrupt something?"<br /> <br /> "Not at all," Mitchel replied calmly. He took a look at his watch and said, "It's late now. Go to sleep."<br /> <br /> "I'm so scared, Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Lauren suddenly wrapped her hands around Mitchel's waist from behind and sobbed with grievance. She buried her face into his back.<br /> <br /> "Stay with me, please. Just for tonight, okay?"<br /> <br /> ....<br /> &8& | LEARN_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-E | 111340554958658 | Romantic Novel Town | https://facebook.com/100083419995460 | 10,291 | 1 | 964,084,858,660,052 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Romantic Novel Town | 120208952839060644 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | video | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/46526322-FB_CONTACT-ENJ57_8-Core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=295122&accid=716216763677319 | 2024-04-17 23:41 | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/438159417_1135277771072882_8153550045400835844_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=zGuaVZNTA7EAb4_vX_4&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfDwtze4McBuJ5a9EOgfnEnpETbKIS7hdvMlORruJmcAYw&oe=66272F13 | person_profile | 0 | moboreader | https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/437524184_412575538062473_6070964860691209721_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=9niYykqgEMIAb41yWe3&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfBVL2_n5t83OvyaiDZYzubt1x1DpQ1KCBSGdCYauZkkUg&oe=66274ADE | 0 | 3 | Romantic Novel Town | 0 | 0 | 2024-04-18 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

Yes | 2024-04-18 14:47 | active | 553 | 0 | 947265203704176 | Read next chapter | Chapter1 Ex-girlfriend Returns<br /> "Congratulations! You are going to be a mom." all Raegan Hayes could think of since this afternoon was the doctor's words.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was her husband. They had been married secretly for two years. He was her superior at work, the president of the Dixon Group.<br /> <br /> Everything had happened so fast. Everything had happened so fast. She was newly employed in the company when they unexpectedly got married. <br /> <br /> At that time, Mitchel's grandfather fell seriously ill. It was then he proposed a fake marriage just to fulfill his grandfather's dying wish.<br /> <br /> They signed a prenup, agreeing to hide their marriage from the public. Their union could be terminated at any time.<br /> <br /> It was an unconventional thing to do. However, Raegan only considered herself lucky at that time.<br /> <br /> Never in a million years did she think she would ever get married to the man she had a crush on for eight years. She delightfully agreed.<br /> <br /> After their marriage, Mitchel was very busy. He spent most of his time working.<br /> <br /> Raegan wished she could spend more time with him at home. However, she was rest assured because there hadn't been any rumors or scandals about him with women in the past two years.<br /> <br /> Except for his mild indifference, Mitchel was a perfect husband.<br /> <br /> Raegan had mixed feelings as she stared at the medical report.<br /> <br /> In the end, she decided to tell Mitchel the truth.<br /> <br /> She also wanted to tell him that she hadn't learned about him for the first time two years ago and that she had been crushing on him for many years before then.<br /> <br /> The shower in the bathroom finally went off.<br /> <br /> Just then, Mitchelโs phone rang. He went to the balcony and answered the phone. <br /> <br /> Raegan checked the time and found that it was already midnight.<br /> <br /> She felt a little uneasy. Who would call Mitchel at this ungodly hour?<br /> <br /> Mitchel spent a few minutes on the balcony. Thereafter, he returned and changed into formal attire. His handsome face which had a clear outline made him look dignified. <br /> <br /> He was something to see now.<br /> <br /> "Don't wait up for me. Good night," he said finally.<br /> <br /> What? He was on his way out? At this hour?<br /> <br /> Raegan's grip on the pregnancy test result tightened as she stared at him in disappointment. Unconsciously, she withdrew slightly. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "It's already so late."<br /> <br /> Mitchel's fingers froze on his tie. With a faint smile, he pinched her earlobe and said "Be good, okay? There's something I have to do. Don't wait up."<br /> <br /> With that, he headed for the door.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel."<br /> <br /> Raegan quickly ran and caught up with him.<br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around and looked at her seriously.<br /> <br /> "What's the matter?"<br /> <br /> There was a tinge of coldness to his voice. An icy cloud hung over them as they stared at each other.<br /> <br /> A little distressed, Raegan asked in a low voice, "I would like to visit my grandma tomorrow. Can you accompany me there?"<br /> <br /> Her grandmother always wanted to see her. As a result, Raegan wanted to take Mitchel there to assure her grandma they were happy. <br /> <br /> "Let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?" Without agreeing or declining, Mitchel left in a hurry.<br /> <br /> Several thoughts were threading Raegan's mind. She couldn't sleep a wink. <br /> <br /> A few notifications from some online blogs came into her phone.<br /> <br /> The news read, "Famous designer, Lauren Murray was spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend earlier today."<br /> <br /> Lauren was wearing a bucket hat. The man's figure was vague, but the outline of his body was enough to show that he was dashing.<br /> <br /> Raegan zoomed in on the picture. The next second, her heart dropped.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was the man in the picture!<br /> <br /> So, he canceled the afternoon meeting just to go pick up his ex-girlfriend from the airport?<br /> <br /> This realization settled like a boulder in Raegan's gut, rendering her flustered.<br /> <br /> Her hands trembled. Subconsciously, she dialed Mitchel's number.<br /> <br /> The dial tone brought her back to her senses. Just as she was about to hang up, the line connected, and a voice came from the other end.<br /> <br /> "Hello!"<br /> <br /> It was a particularly gentle woman's voice.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a second and then threw the phone away.<br /> <br /> She suddenly felt sick in her stomach. Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom and threw up in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Raegan went to work on time.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had tried to get her to stop working after they got married. Stubbornly, she insisted on making her own money.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't kick against her decision, but he asked her to work as his assistant, helping him with the daily chores.<br /> <br /> The head assistant, Matteo Jenkins was left to take care of the major affairs Mitchel had.<br /> <br /> Matteo was the only Dixon Group employee who knew about their marriage.<br /> <br /> At this time, one of Raegan's colleagues handed her a document and ordered her to take it to Mitchel's office.<br /> <br /> Raegan tried to remain calm now. She reasoned that no matter what happened, she deserved a result that would be rewarding for all the years she spent loving Mitchel. This couldn't be all for nothing, right?<br /> <br /> She pressed the elevator button calmly and went up to the president's office. Before she walked out of the elevator, she smoothed her hair to make sure she looked good.<br /> <br /> She had arrived at the office, only to see that the door was ajar. A man's voice came. She halted instantly.<br /> <br /> "Come on, man! Do you have any feelings for Raegan or not?"<br /> <br /> The voice belonged to Luis Stevens, a childhood friend of Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> "What do you mean exactly?" Mitchel asked in a cold voice.<br /> <br /> "You know exactly what I mean!" Luis clicked his tongue impatiently and added, "I think Raegan is a good girl. Isn't she your type?"<br /> <br /> "Do you want me to hand her over to you?" Mitchel asked carelessly.<br /> <br /> "You know what, forget it!"<br /> <br /> The scornful laughter of Luis sounded particularly harsh in Raegan's ears.<br /> <br /> They were talking about her as if she were an object.<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the document.<br /> <br /> Soon, Luis's voice was heard again.<br /> <br /> "By the way, I saw the gossip news about Lauren's mysterious boyfriend this morning. That was you, right?"<br /> <br /> "Yes."<br /> <br /> "Well, well, well! That woman still has you wrapped around her little finger. You always want to please her."<br /> <br /> Luis sighed and continued to tease Mitchel. "As the old saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Tell me, did you two..."<br /> <br /> Their conversation was like a thunder exploding over Raegan's head.<br /> <br /> Her face turned pale and her body was as cold as ice.<br /> <br /> The woman was indeed Lauren! <br /> <br /> Absence made the heart grow fonder!<br /> <br /> Every word drove a knife into her heart.<br /> <br /> Several whispering voices filled her head at this time. She suddenly felt light-headed. Her vision became blurry.<br /> <br /> She held the wall and took a step backward. Suddenly, the door was opened from inside.<br /> <br /> "Raegan?"<br /> <br /> Chapter2 One-sided Love<br /> Luis was the one who opened the door. It appeared he was on his way out.<br /> <br /> Raegan balled her hands, turned to him, and nodded. "Hey, Mr. Stevens!"<br /> <br /> Without waiting for him to respond to her greeting, she walked past him and entered the office with the document.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was seated behind a large luxurious desk. In an expensive suit and matching tie, he looked particularly handsome.<br /> <br /> Raegan noticed it wasn't the same suit he had on when he left home last night. How did he get changed?<br /> <br /> With her eyes lowered, she swallowed that question and said instead, "Mr. Dixon, this is from the Marketing Department. Please sign it."<br /> <br /> Mitchel was expressionless as he signed the document at a glance.<br /> <br /> Raegan walked out the door as soon as he handed the document back to her. Luis was still standing at the threshold.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she went out of sight that Luis turned to Mitchel and said in a hushed tone, "Do you think she heard us?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's appealing eyes were expressionless at the moment. Obviously, he wasn't paying attention to what Luis was saying.<br /> <br /> To Mitchel, Raegan had always been docile and never felt jealous of anyone.<br /> <br /> Her strict obedience was all Mitchel demanded from her in exchange for treating her well.<br /> <br /> In the elevator.<br /> <br /> Raegan held her breath just to hold back her tears. Unfortunately, it didn't work.<br /> <br /> She had thought two years would be enough for Mitchel to realize how much she loved him and reciprocate her love.<br /> <br /> Now, it turned out that was just a pipe dream.<br /> <br /> She realized she would always play second fiddle to Lauren, Mitchel's true love.<br /> <br /> Reagan wiped her tears when the elevator halted. Save for her pale face, she looked normal when the doors opened.<br /> <br /> She dragged herself to the break room, intending to make herself a cup of tea.<br /> <br /> Several employees were chatting inside.<br /> <br /> "Guys, have you heard? Lauren Murray is back."<br /> <br /> "And who is that?"<br /> <br /> "Oh, my! You don't know her? Lauren is the heiress of the Murray Group as well as a world-class designer. Most importantly, she's the only girlfriend Mr. Dixon has ever shown off in public. She's his first love!"<br /> <br /> "Why is her return such a big deal? Isn't it rumored that there is something between Mr. Dixon and Raegan?"<br /> <br /> "Raegan? She's nothing to Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon never admitted that he was dating her. And that is no surprise to me. After all, look at her. She's not even that beautiful. Yet, she behaves as if she's already Mrs. Dixon. What a fool!"<br /> <br /> Standing at the door, Raegan smiled with self-mockery as she listened to them. It turned out everyone else saw the truth except her.<br /> <br /> The love was one-sided.<br /> <br /> "Ha-ha, has Mrs. Dixon finally woken up from her wild dream?"<br /> <br /> A voice of mockery suddenly came from behind. Raegan turned around to see Tessa Lloyd, Mitchel's cousin, who had always despised her.<br /> <br /> Tessa must have also heard the employees gossiping.<br /> <br /> The last thing Raegan wanted to do now was argue with Tessa in the company. She turned to leave, but Tessa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> With a cup of coffee in her hand, Tessa uttered sarcastically, "Lauren is back now. Do you think Mitchel will still give you any attention?"<br /> <br /> Raegan said nothing to that.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, Tessa continued the ridicule. "Maybe itโs time for you to seek out another man, you pathetic fool."<br /> <br /> Raegan clenched her fists and said coldly, "Ms. Lloyd, we are in the company, not a brothel. If you are interested in that kind of business, you know where to go."<br /> <br /> "You..."<br /> <br /> Raegan's retort made Tessa's face change. <br /> <br /> The next second, Tessa raised her hand and emptied the cup of hot coffee on Raegan.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't think for a second that Tessa would do something so crazy. She held up her arms just to block the hot liquid from her face. In no time, the coffee drenched her clothes. <br /> <br /> "Ouch!" Raegan frowned in pain. "What did you do that for? Are you out of your mind?"<br /> <br /> It was lunch break and many employees were free to watch the drama. Tessa was even more complacent when she saw growing onlookers.<br /> <br /> She put on a mean-girl look as she said, "What makes you so smug every day, huh? Do you seriously think that others don't know you are just an orphan? The nerve of..."<br /> <br /> A crisp sound was heard all of a sudden.<br /> <br /> Tessa was silenced by a hot slap to her face.<br /> <br /> Her jaw dropped to the floor. She had never expected that Raegan, who was so quiet and timid, would slap her.<br /> <br /> Tessa held her cheek and stared blankly for a while. Then, she stuttered, "You... You hit me? How dare you!"<br /> <br /> Raegan eyed her and replied, "Yes, I did! It seems you need to be taught simple politeness."<br /> <br /> Indeed, Raegan lost her parents when she was a child. But that didn't mean she would allow someone to walk over her for it.<br /> <br /> Wrinkles appeared on Tessa's face as she frowned in anger. As Mitchel's cousin, she was used to being fawned over and respected. This was the first time she had been treated like this.<br /> <br /> Tessa charged at Raegan like a raging bull, raising her hand up high to return the slap.<br /> <br /> This time, Raegan was fully prepared for what was coming. She grabbed Tessa's wrist so tightly that the latter couldn't move another inch.<br /> <br /> Tessa was shorter than Raegan. As a result, Tessa struggled like an octopus that had one of its tentacles stuck in a fishing trap.<br /> <br /> Tessa cursed angrily, "How dare you put your hands on me? Who do you think you are?"<br /> <br /> These harsh words attracted more people to the break room.<br /> <br /> "That's enough!"<br /> <br /> Out of the blue, a baritone came from behind. Mitchel had left his office and ran into this hullabaloo.<br /> <br /> The entire room fell silent.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel?" Tessa's blood ran cold at the sight of Mitchel. She had always been scared of him. Her mother also warned her against provoking him.<br /> <br /> But when she remembered that Raegan humiliated her, she put on a pitiful expression and sobbed. "Mitchel, she bullied me."<br /> <br /> The sunlight from outside fell on Mitchel's handsome face.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt so grieved all of a sudden, and lowered her head to look at her clothes which were soaked with coffee. <br /> <br /> Their gaze met in the air. With a deep frown, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Raegan, have you forgotten the rules of the company?"<br /> <br /> His ruthlessness made Raegan's breathing cease. She couldn't believe her ears.<br /> <br /> No one dared to make a sound at this moment.<br /> <br /> Raegan just stood straight there with her slender figure.<br /> <br /> When she got employed here, Mitchel had told her that the Dixon Group wasn't a place for her to mess around and that he would not tolerate her making any mistakes.<br /> <br /> Raegan could understand why he took this stand.<br /> <br /> However, at this moment, she was desperate to know whether Mitchel had heard those hard words Tessa scolded her or he was just pretending not to have heard because he agreed to those words.<br /> <br /> Was she truly insignificant to him?<br /> <br /> Scared to death by Mitchel's rage, the crowd soon dispersed. A few employees were bold enough to peep from a distance, unwilling to miss the good show.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's cold eyes made Raegan shiver from head to toe.<br /> <br /> Raegan pinched her palm to suppress her emotions as she looked at Tessa.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, Ms. Lloyd. As an employee of the Dixon Group, it was wrong of me to have hit you."<br /> <br /> Eyeing Raegan, Tessa raised her chin complacently. "Humph! Don't think you'll be let off the hook just by making a simple apology. I don't buy..."<br /> <br /> "The slap has nothing to do with the company. Personally, I refuse to apologize to you. Now, if you'd excuse me," Raegan chimed in.<br /> <br /> She then walked past Mitchel without sparing him another look.<br /> <br /> Tessa's face turned blue after hearing what Raegan said.<br /> <br /> Never in her years of being alive had she been so humiliated. She was always the bully, not the victim!<br /> <br /> The humiliation was so much that scolding Raegan wouldn't appease her anger. <br /> <br /> Pointing in Raegan's direction, Tessa shouted, "Mitchel, did you hear what that woman just said? She slapped me in the face, yet she's still so arrogant. Call her back. I have to teach her some manners!"<br /> <br /> Mitchel, staring at Raegan's thin back, had an ambiguous expression at this moment.<br /> <br /> "Enough!" he said coldly, raising his hand.<br /> <br /> As someone who lived and breathed drama and cruelty, Tessa didn't think Mitchel was partial to Raegan just now. She assumed that Mitchel didn't care about Raegan at all.<br /> <br /> Tessa gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Next time, I'll get someone to teach that woman a lesson."<br /> <br /> "Tessa!" Mitchel's tone and squint made it a reproof.<br /> <br /> Tessa trembled at once.<br /> <br /> With a somber face, Mitchel said, "I'll only say it once. Forget about what happened here today. Leave Raegan alone."<br /> <br /> The aura he exuded made her tongue go dry. All the vicious ideas she had in store against Raegan disappeared in an instant.<br /> <br /> She stammered, "Ok... Okay, got it..."<br /> <br /> Mitchel cast a cold glance at her and spoke to Matteo. "Irrelevant people wouldn't be allowed in here from today onwards."<br /> <br /> Without catching the drift, Tessa flattered Mitchel. "Nice call. This is a top company. Not everyone gains access in here."<br /> <br /> Matteo nodded to Mitchel and then walked over to Tessa. He gestured to the exit. "Ms. Lloyd, this way, please."<br /> <br /> It wasn't until this moment that Tessa realized that she was the irrelevant person Mitchel just mentioned. She tried to speak to him, but Matteo blocked her way. The security guards then threw her out.<br /> <br /> They showed her no mercy. Her struggle was useless.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Raegan got changed when she returned to her office.<br /> <br /> Her heart was filled with sadness as she thought of how Mitchel looked at her minutes ago.<br /> <br /> Closing hour soon rolled by.<br /> <br /> Raegan took her bag and headed for the exit. However, Matteo stopped her.<br /> <br /> He said, "Mr. Dixon has something urgent to deal with, so he asked me to drive you home."<br /> <br /> Raegan declined the ride without thinking twice.<br /> <br /> She was blind before, but now she could see through the situation.<br /> <br /> In Mitchel's eyes, she was just a nobody.<br /> <br /> How could Mitchel agree to accompany her to visit her grandmother when he didn't even care about her?<br /> <br /> Upon arriving at the hospital, Raegan saw that the nurse was about to feed her grandmother dinner. Raegan took the job over and did it by herself.<br /> <br /> All her life, her grandmother had been living in the countryside, enjoying a quiet life. Everything changed last month when her routine medical checkup showed that there was something wrong with her pancreas. Raegan insisted on bringing her to the city for better treatment.<br /> <br /> Her grandmother wasn't aware of her marriage to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> Raegan had planned to surprise her today. But as it turned out, that was no longer necessary.<br /> <br /> Raegan waited for her grandmother to fall asleep before she left. She walked out of the hospital and waited for a taxi.<br /> <br /> In the distance, a black luxury car pulled into the entrance of the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan's eyes lit up when she saw it. She recognized that car as Mitchel's.<br /> <br /> Did he come to pick her up?<br /> <br /> At this moment, she forgot all the pain she had been feeling.<br /> <br /> Were her thoughts about him all wrong? Did he care for her, contrary to the gossip?<br /> <br /> The door of the driver's side opened and Mitchel got out.<br /> <br /> Raegan started walking toward him with her heart brimming with joy.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she stopped dead in her tracks.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had just walked over to the other side and carried a woman out of the car.<br /> <br /> Worry and compassion were written all over his handsome face.<br /> <br /> This wiped the smile on Raegan's face. Her heart sank.<br /> <br /> Chapter3 Let's Divorce<br /> Mitchel's tall and straight figure got closer and closer to Raegan. And then, without saying a word, he strode past Raegan.<br /> <br /> It was hard to tell if Mitchel saw Raegan or just ignored her.<br /> <br /> Regardless, Raegan noticed that the woman in his arms was the same one who had been photographed with him yesterday.<br /> <br /> She was Lauren.<br /> <br /> Raegan's shoes felt like they were made of lead as she walked away.<br /> <br /> She lost all awareness of her surroundings. She got into a taxi absentmindedly.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, the driver uttered, "Ma'am, where to?"<br /> <br /> Raegan was stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> She didn't want to go back to Serenity Villas. It was only a matter of time before that place stopped being her home.<br /> <br /> After a while, she replied, "Please take me to Crystal Bay."<br /> <br /> She had purchased an apartment at Crystal Bay after getting married to Mitchel.<br /> <br /> At the time, she had hopes of bringing her grandmother to the city, so she bought the apartment on mortgage. It wasn't that big, but it had more than enough space for two people.<br /> <br /> Mitchel didn't understand why she wanted to buy an apartment. He offered to give her a bigger one, but she declined.<br /> <br /> Looking back now, she realized that buying that apartment was the only wise decision she had ever made in the last two years.<br /> <br /> As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Mitchel standing in front of the door.<br /> <br /> His sleeves were rolled up casually, and the top buttons of his shirt were undone, which revealed his long neck and part of his collarbone. He was leaning on the wall by the door, his handsome face straight.<br /> <br /> Raegan froze for a moment.<br /> <br /> Why was he here? Didn't she see him at the hospital with Lauren? What brought him here?<br /> <br /> Their eyes met. With his coat draped over his arm and one of his hands in his pocket, Mitchel squinted at her.<br /> <br /> "Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked, sounding a little grumpy like someone who hadn't slept in a long time.<br /> <br /> Raegan took out her phone and saw she had accidentally put it on DND.<br /> <br /> There were five missed calls from Mitchel.<br /> <br /> This marked the first time in their two-year marriage.<br /> <br /> Mitchel blew up her phone because he couldn't find her? Surprising!<br /> <br /> Before today, she would have been overjoyed by this. People would've thought she won the lottery.<br /> <br /> But now, she just threw her phone back into her bag, folded her arms, and said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't hear it ring."<br /> <br /> Mitchel raised his hand to check the time on the watch, and said impatiently, "I've been looking for you for two hours."<br /> <br /> After arranging everything for Lauren, he returned home to find an empty house. He looked for Raegan everywhere. When he couldn't find her, he asked Matteo to check the surveillance footage of all the roads that led away from the company.<br /> <br /> He later found out that Raegan went to Crystal Bay without telling him.<br /> <br /> "Next time, tell me when you are coming here, okay? Let's go home now." After that, Mitchel walked toward the elevator without sparing her another glance.<br /> <br /> He meant to go back to Serenity Villas.<br /> <br /> Raegan didn't move an inch. She just stared at his broad back.<br /> <br /> Mitchell turned around, only to see that Raegan hadn't taken a single step. He frowned and asked, "Can't you walk? Do you want me to carry you instead?"<br /> <br /> Raegan took a deep breath and said, "Let's divorce."<br /> <br /> "What do you mean?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel's voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately.<br /> <br /> "I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon."<br /> <br /> Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit.<br /> <br /> "We will be strangers?"<br /> <br /> Mitchel smiled coldly. "Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?"<br /> <br /> His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate.<br /> <br /> Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him.<br /> <br /> His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn't let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn't be more wrong...<br /> <br /> After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don't have to come here again."<br /> <br /> After saying that, Raegan couldn't help but burst into tears.<br /> <br /> How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time.<br /> <br /> Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go.<br /> <br /> His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, "If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I..."<br /> <br /> "No, this isn't about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now."<br /> <br /> A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn't come close to any.<br /> <br /> Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door.<br /> <br /> Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness.<br /> <br /> He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist tightly.<br /> <br /> "Stop this, will you?"<br /> <br /> A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.<br /> <br /> He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire.<br /> <br /> "You have a fever?"<br /> <br /> Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly.<br /> <br /> This made the whole situation complicated.<br /> <br /> Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back.<br /> <br /> Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, "Where do you think you are going?"<br /> <br /> The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up.<br /> <br /> He then headed for the elevator.<br /> <br /> In a daze, Raegan asked softly, "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "What does it look like I am doing?" Mitchel remarked. "Taking you to the hospital, of course."<br /> <br /> "No way!" Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength.<br /> <br /> Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.<br /> <br /> Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel's arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless.<br /> <br /> "Don't be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor," Mitchel said firmly.<br /> <br /> He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan's heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest. <br /> <br /> "Put me down! I don't want to go to the hospital!"<br /> <br /> Chapter4 Stay With Me<br /> Mitchel stopped and looked at Raegan's slender fingers grasping his shirt. His eyes darkened.<br /> <br /> "Why?"<br /> <br /> Raegan lowered her eyes and lied, "I... I don't like hospitals. There's something about them that scares me."<br /> <br /> She was so scared of being caught in that lie that she couldn't look him in the eye. Now, she didn't know if he believed her or not.<br /> <br /> When he didn't say anything, she added softly, "I have already taken some medicine. I'll be fine once I take some rest."<br /> <br /> Mitchel looked down. From his perspective, he could only see half of her beautiful face.<br /> <br /> Her face was so small, and her long curly eyelashes shook as she kept her eyes lowered. Perhaps the fever made her flush, making her look so fragile at the moment.<br /> <br /> Mitchel's heart melted against his will.<br /> <br /> Without thinking twice, he made a U-turn and opened the door of the apartment. He then took Raegan straight to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> Raegan breathed a sigh of relief. She had been so nervous just now that she got all sweaty. Even her hair was wet. All she wanted to do now was take a cool shower and go to bed.<br /> <br /> "I will be fine alone. You can leave now." She was clearly driving him away.<br /> <br /> This place was all new to Mitchel. After all, he had been used to living in a mansion all his life.<br /> <br /> "Okay," Mitchel uttered, but he didn't move an inch.<br /> <br /> She stood up. The sudden movement immediately made her head spin. She leaned backward and almost lost her balance.<br /> <br /> Fortunately, Mitchel caught her just in time and picked her up. He took her straight to the bathroom.<br /> <br /> He put her into the bathtub gently. <br /> <br /> Mitchel turned around.<br /> <br /> The door of the bathroom was soon slammed shut.<br /> <br /> After giving herself a good soak in the bathtub, Raegan felt much better. She walked out wearing only a bathrobe. To her surprise, Mitchel was still in the room.<br /> <br /> She did her best to ignore him. "What are you doing? Why do you want to go to bed with your hair wet?" he asked.<br /> <br /> With that, he unwrapped the small towel around her head, picked up the hair dryer, and got to work.<br /> <br /> Raegan's mind was a mess as she stared at their reflection in the mirror. <br /> <br /> Mitchel's care was torture for her now. She was afraid of falling for him even more. She might decide not to divorce anymore.<br /> <br /> Once her hair was all dry, she looked at his face through the mirror and thanked him softly.<br /> <br /> Mitchel remained standing behind her.<br /> <br /> With one hand on the washstand, Mitchel stared at her reflection in the mirror. The corners of his eyes slanted as he asked, "Is that all the thanks I'm gonna get?"<br /> <br /> She gawked at him with her eyes many sizes wider.<br /> <br /> Through the mirror, Mitchel could see how her eyes became misty and her nose became pink.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, he got a bit upset. <br /> <br /> Raegan's eyebrows knitted in confusion. <br /> <br /> His eyes darkened further as he added, "There are many men are not as nice as I am. Got it?"<br /> <br /> He sounded so serious.<br /> <br /> His statement made her short of words.<br /> <br /> What a nonsense!<br /> <br /> Raegan rolled her eyes with annoyance.<br /> <br /> Why did she let his tenderness take her breath away? How could she forget her decision so easily? She should get a grip!<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Mitchel's phone rang, bringing her back to reality.<br /> <br /> She left quietly to make room for him.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Mitchel answered the phone and went to the balcony.<br /> <br /> He chatted on the phone for a while before hanging up and walking back to the bedroom.<br /> <br /> She knew he was about to leave, but she didn't try to stop him.<br /> <br /> "Close the door behind you," she said before he could utter a word.<br /> <br /> "Okay. Sleep tight." After saying that, Mitchel picked up his coat, walked to the door, and turned to glance at her before walking out.<br /> <br /> It wasn't until she heard the door lock that Raegan inched her head from underneath the quilt.<br /> <br /> There was a turbulence in her heart at this time. Soon, she felt so bitter.<br /> <br /> Everyone knew that Lauren was the only woman that Mitchel loved.<br /> <br /> Did she stand a chance against that impressive woman?<br /> <br /> Would the baby change anything? Not a chance.<br /> <br /> She felt lucky that she hadn't told him about her pregnancy yet.<br /> <br /> After all, breaking the news would have only earned her more humiliation.<br /> <br /> Back in the hospital, Mitchel stood in front of the window that overlooked the beautiful night sky. The moonlight accentuated his straight features, making him look extremely outstanding.<br /> <br /> "Mitchel," Lauren called out as she lay on the bed nearby.<br /> <br /> Mitchel snapped out of his deep thoughts and turned to her. "How are you feeling now?"<br /> <br /> "I'm better now. I'm sorry to have bothered you again," Lauren said guiltily. "Jocelyn was making a fuss over nothing."<br /> <br /> Her face twisted pitifully as she spoke. It was as if she was reminding Mitchel how special she was to him.<br /> <br /> "Not a big deal." With no expression on his face, Mitchel asked lightly, "You hungry? I can ask Matteo to get you whatever you'd like to eat."<br /> <br /> "No, thanks."
