It wasn't just a little bit of pain. She had been in so much pain that she didn't think she would forget it any time soon. Taking all that without anesthesia was hell.

The pain had shot through her entire body and tore her up from within. If she cried now, it would be justified.

Only a little? Mitchel doubted it.

He knew she had a very low tolerance for pain. Even the first time he had sex with her, they had to do several trials because she kept crying that it hurt.

Mitchel made sure to engage in enough foreplay before entering her so she wouldn't fight him off while crying due to pain.

At this moment, Raegan's face was pale. Dark wisps of her hair stuck to her forehead and temples. She looked so pitiful like a withered rose on a hot summer afternoon.

Lines appeared on Mitchel's forehead as he looked at her. He wanted to say something comforting, but the words got stuck in his throat.

The veins in his clenched fists popped and his bones almost snapped.

The bastard that hurt Raegan deserved to die a miserable death!

Mitchel's gloomy expression didn't go unnoticed by Raegan. She thought he was just annoyed because the divorce had to be stalled.

Her right hand was wrapped like a mummy and she had other bruises.

If she went to the Dixon family house looking like this, Kyler would be so worried about her. She had to wait until she was completely healed before going over to explain to him and Luciana about their decision to get a divorce.

“Don't worry. It's nothing serious. I'm sure my wounds will heal in a few days. Once I get better, I'll go speak to your mom. You can..."

Raegan's statement was cut off when her bosom suddenly hit a hard but warm chest. Mitchel had pulled her into his arms with gentle force.

"Don't say a word. Just let me hold you," he said, resting his chin on the crown of her head.

Raegan was stunned.

She melted in his arms while thinking that he cared about her.

But the next second, she laughed at herself.

How could he care about her when his heart was only for Lauren? This hug was nothing compared to what he did for that woman.

It was undeniable that she would never have been able to get close to Mitchel, let alone marry him if Lauren hadn't gone abroad.
