Chapter: 1445
Before she could finish, a woman's voice interrupted from the other end of the line. “I'm sorry, but Mitchel is currently in a meeting,” the voice on the other end informed her.
Raegan was momentarily taken aback. Then the woman inquired, "Is this Raegan Foster?"
Raegan confirmed her identity, and the woman introduced herself, "It's Katie. We met the other day."
Raegan recalled the name but had little interest in prolonging the conversation with Katie. She responded politely but briefly, “Well, if he's not available, that's all I needed to know. Bye!"
However, Katie seemed keen on continuing the conversation. She said with a chuckle, “Raegan, I recall you mentioning you had no feelings for Mitchel last time. If that's the case, perhaps you should ask other men to handle your personal matters. Don't you think? After all, it's not quite appropriate to keep disturbing someone else's fiancé, right?"
Raegan could feel Katie's arrogance even through the phone.
Katie made it seem like Raegan was having an affair with Mitchel.
Right then, Raegan was on the brink of losing her cool and almost hung up. Was Katie actually in a relationship with Mitchel? This question lingered in her mind. If Katie's words were true, then what was Mitchel's intention when he pursued her recently? Who did he take her for? What a jerk! Scumbag! Asshole!
With these thoughts, Raegan replied in a calm tone, "Sorry, I wasn't aware that you two were engaged. I promise not to contact Mitchel again."
Raegan didn't feel any guilt as she apologized sincerely. She stood tall, thinking that if Katie was telling the truth and she had known earlier, she would have never gotten involved with Mitchel. Moreover, it was Mitchel who kept showing up in her life. If Katie was telling the truth, Mitchel was a scumbag, no doubt.
“Why don't you check online, Raegan? Didn't you see the news about our engagement earlier?" Katie said, deliberately bringing up the news.
Although Mitchel's team had removed almost all the fake news from the internet, the coverage of the so-called engagement between Katie and Mitchel from unknown entertainment companies that valued little to the truth of the news they released could still be stumbled upon.
Truth be told, Katie wasn't afraid Mitchel would approach Raegan and explain the situation. After all, it wasn't something easy to explain.
What added to the difficulty was Raegan's previous low opinion of Mitchel. Mitchel's attempt to explain would Likely complicate things further.
Besides, Katie assumed she wasn't entirely dishonest. She was set on marrying Mitchel. Sooner or later, Mitchel would become her husband.
Katie had been orchestrating the schemes of marrying Mitchel for years, not anticipating Raegan's sudden return. She had hoped Lauren's tricks would succeed in removing Raegan from the picture.
But, to her dismay, Lauren failed.
Left with no alternative, Katie had to take the matter into her own hands.
With a smile, Katie continued, "Since three years ago, the news about our engagement has been all over the Internet. The Dixon Group has aimed for a more discreet profile the recent years. We've toned down the media coverage, but our engagement is still a well-known fact to all. Raegan, I don't think you're someone who would chase after a man relentlessly. I will let this call slide. Anyway, I suggest you watch your actions and words in the future and stay away from Mitchel for your own good."
Katie's tone was condescending. Though she didn't use harsh Language, it was clear she was labeling Raegan in a negative light and trying to demean Raegan.
