Despite being deceived by her more than once, Jarrod found himself still in love with her, allowing her to repeatedly inflict pain upon him.

He must be the most stupid person on the planet. Lost in contemplation, Jarrod wrestled with his emotions.

Meanwhile, Raegan concluded her class at half past eight. She then made her way to the subway station.

On her way, her phone suddenly rang. It was Mitchel calling.

"Is the class over?" he asked.

"Yes, it's over," Raegan replied.

“How about I come to pick you up?" Mitchel suggested.

Stunned by his initiative, Raegan glanced around, realizing the subway station was not far away.

"Don't bother. I almost reach the station."

Mitchel's voice, magnetic and familiar, asserted from the other end of the phone, “What are you talking about? You are my wife. I'm more than willing to pick you up."

His tone left Raegan momentarily stunned. She suddenly remembered that she was, once again, Mitchel's wife.

However, this marital status rested upon a foundation of mutual agreement.

Raegan was saddened by the fact that she and Mitchel got married twice because of Kyler.

Despite harboring no ill will toward Kyler, she couldn't escape the nagging sense that she was merely a pawn in Mitchel's eyes. Mitchel would think of her when he needed her and discard her when he did not. Essentially, she felt Like nobody to him.

When Raegan hesitated to respond, Mitchel asked, "Did you forget?"

When she heard this, Raegan thought he was reminding her about their agreement.

In a swift reply, she assured him, “Of course, I remember. I'll honor our agreement."

She was determined to take their arrangement seriously and uphold her end of the deal.

This time around, she wouldn't be as naive as she had been before.

A pregnant pause ensued on the other end of the line, and the atmosphere turned tense.
