Revealing this information now was risky for Mitchel. Alexis had tried all means to seize control of the company these days. and Kyle held critical evidence against Alexis. Kyle had agreed to cooperate with Mitchel, but only if Lauren's baby remained safe.

At that time, Kyle had been imprisoned for a crime. After the scene Alexis had made, Kyle contacted Mitchel and promised unconditional cooperation as long as Lauren's baby was kept safe.

Mitchel had to create the impression that Lauren was carrying his child to ensure the baby's safety from any harm Alexis might pose.

These complexities made Mitchel cautious about sharing too much with Raegan. If she could endure it for three months, Mitchel believed he could defeat Alexis.

Thinking of Nicole's tragic end, Mitchel felt a twinge of unease.

Raegan was acting strangely, likely deeply saddened by Nicole's death.

Just earlier at the graveyard, she cried so bitterly that she even expressed a desire to harm Jarrod.

Mitchel closely observed Raegan, his intuition telling him that something was amiss.

Staring at her intently, Mitchel asked hoarsely, "Raegan, you won't leave me, right?"

Given a choice, Mitchel would prefer to keep Raegan close, perhaps even lock her up. Moreover, Raegan had been pushing for a divorce lately, adding to Mitchel's concerns.

Seeing the anxiety in Mitchel's eyes, Raegan's heart skipped a beat.

Understanding it wasn't the time to provoke Mitchel, she reluctantly went against her desires and said, "Of course, I won't leave you."

She lifted her delicate face and added softly, “But Mitchel, you must stop locking me up. I can't bear feeling like a prisoner at home."

Mitchel scrutinized Raegan's face with apparent indifference as if attempting to decipher the truth behind her words.

Consumed by sobs, Raegan pleaded with a voice laden with sorrow, “Nicole is gone, and my heart is shattered. How can you continue to confine me all day long? Do my feelings mean nothing to you?"

"Stop crying." Mitchel extended his hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. Eventually, he relented, saying, "You can go out, but the bodyguards must accompany you. And don't stay out for too long, understood?"

Upon hearing this, Raegan's face turned pale. This meant she would be under Mitchel's watchful eye around the clock.

Nevertheless, Raegan considered it a welcome change from being grounded in the house.

Mitchel left after sending Raegan back to Serenity Villas. It was evident to her where he was headed.

Initially, Raegan thought she wouldn't care anymore, but knowing Mitchel was visiting Lauren made her feel upset. She despised both Lauren and Mitchel.
