Chapter: 1291
Mitchel raised his head slowly, his handsome face filled with disbelief.
Although Raegan was wearing a worried expression, her concern was directed to the man. Disregarding Mitchel's injury, she hurriedly approached and pushed him away.
Though Raegan lacked strength, Mitchel felt a deep disappointment as Raegan pushed him aside.
Raegan helped the man on the floor to stand. Tears were streaming down her face. "Erick... Erick... Are you alright?"
“I'm fine. Don't worry about me," Erick answered as he stood up with Raegan's help.
In truth, Erick was a formidable fighter, yet dealing with the four bodyguards had drained his strength. His worry for Raegan led him to employ extreme measures, injuring himself in the process. Therefore, he couldn't defeat Mitchel.
Seeing Raegan's disheveled clothes, Erick felt his fists clench involuntarily. He quickly shrugged off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
"Are you alright?" Erick asked, genuine concern etched across his face.
Raegan only seemed to care about Erick's well-being as she nodded with teary eyes.
Despite Mitchel's having kissed her, Raegan had adeptly thwarted his advances with a well-placed kick. Therefore, he didn't take much advantage of her.
At Raegan's response, a hint of compassion softened Erick's previously somber expression.
In this shared moment of concern, Raegan and Erick were oblivious to Mitchel's presence.
Annoyed, Mitchel grabbed Raegan's arm and pulled her toward him indignantly. “Come here!"
“Behave yourself, Mr. Dixon! Please refrain from touching my sister any further!" Erick intervened, stepping forward to protect Raegan.
Erick didn't hesitate to address Mitchel by his family name, cutting through any pretense given Raegan and Mitchel had already met. There was no need for him to feign ignorance. In addition, he had taken the initiative to investigate Mitchel, leaving no room for hidden truths.
“She is your sister?" Narrowing his eyes in contemplation, Mitchel recalled his previous encounter with Erick. It struck him that Erick was the father of the lovely little girl he had met before.
During their interaction before, the airport staff had referred to Erick as Mr. Foster.
The Foster family? Mitchel had heard that it was a prominent family that had some business dealing with international flights. However, he couldn't help but ask himself how Raegan ended up becoming the daughter of the Foster family.
Erick opted for transparency. After all, Mitchel would uncover the truth as soon as he investigated. Without beating around the bush, Erick said plainly, “Raegan went lost when she was a little girl. We only managed to find her a few years ago."
Mitchel's gaze darkened as it settled on the delicate woman beside Erick. Raegan Foster?
