After forcefully removing the ring from Raegan's hand, Mitchel flung it into the trash can with a surge of anger.

With a heavyhearted expression in his eyes, he asked, "You have married someone else?"

No one knew the depths of Mitchel's torment over the past five years.

The sorrow had made him live like a walking dead.

And now, whenever he thought of Raegan marrying another man, he felt like he was losing his mind.

His heart felt like it had been struck by lightning, and an unbearable pain swept over him.

A single tear fell from Mitchel's bloodshot eyes and landed on Raegan's palm.

The warm tear seemed to carry his profound sadness.

With his eyes filled with tears, Mitchel demanded, "Have you ever thought about my feelings? You are my wife. Can't you understand that?"

When she heard this, Raegan found Mitchel's accusation so absurd that she responded firmly, "No, that's not true."

"Is that so? Do you want me to prove it?" After saying that, Mitchel forcefully pushed her onto the bed, restraining her wrists before pouncing on her.

His eyes gleamed with an unsettling eagerness, resembling a predator closing in on its prey.

“Let go of me, you bastard!" Raegan struggled to escape his grip.

Suddenly, just as Mitchel leaned over, a thunderous crash echoed through the room as the door was kicked open.

A man rushed in, pulled Mitchel off the bed, and pressed him to the floor while delivering a blow to his face.

Unwilling to be subdued, Mitchel retaliated immediately. In a matter of seconds, he turned the tables on his assailant, placing a knee on the man's neck, leaving him pale-faced and defeated.

Panicked by the turn of events, Raegan recognized the man lying on the floor. Without hesitation, she picked up an ashtray from the tea table and smashed it at the back of Mitchel's head.

A muffled sound filled the room.

Caught off guard, Mitchel released his grip on the man. Although the ashtray fell on the floor heavily, it was still intact. However, Raegan's actions broke his heart.

In the ensuing chaos, blood trickled from the back of his head.
