She was so startled that she sobered up a bit. She immediately got out of the car.

Of course, her effort was not in vain. Before Matteo returned to the car, he paid her a few thousand bucks.

When Matteo sat in the driver's seat again, he started the car. But he didn't immediately drive. Instead, he looked at the back seat.

"Go back to her," Mitchel ordered.

Raegan's legs were numb from crouching for so long. But she had to get up. She knew she had to go back and continue to think of a solution.

Suddenly, the black Bentley returned and stopped in front of her.

The car window slowly rolled down, revealing Mitchel's handsome but dark face.

"Get in," he ordered coldly.

Raegan didn't hesitate. She hurriedly opened the car door to get in.

But since her legs numbed from squatting too long, she accidentally tripped over the door frame.

“Uh... Raegan grunted softly and pursed her lips. She knelt at Mitchel's feet and clung to his trouser leg.

Her posture, confused expression, and pleading eyes made her look pitiful and alluring at the same time.

Mitchel's eyes narrowed slightly.

The atmosphere in the car froze at once.

Raegan was so embarrassed that she quickly got up. She sat obediently and placed her hands on her Lap.

As Matteo drove through the dark night, there was pin-drop silence in the car.

Mitchel didn't say a word. He seemed weary. He rested his forehead on the palm of his hand and closed his eyes to rest.

Though anxious, Raegan didn't disturb his rest, so she could only endure it silently.

Finally, the car stopped. When Raegan looked outside the window, she found they were in front of her apartment building.

Mitchel didn't open his eyes. He ordered Matteo, "Take her upstairs."
