Raegan tried to pull away, her voice cold. "Could you let me go?

It's not appropriate. You wouldn't want your fiancée to see us and get the wrong idea."

Mitchel's brow furrowed in confusion. Why did she mention the fiancée again? He had already made it clear to her that his relationship with Katie was over.

Mitchel's gaze darkened a bit. He didn't repeat the question but just looked at her. "So, your boyfriend isn't going to get the wrong idea about you visiting me?"

Irritated, Raegan responded without thinking, “Boyfriend? What boyfriend?"

As soon as she said it, she realized she had walked right into a trap. Believing that explaining further would only make things worse, she chose to remain silent.

A brief smile flashed across Mitchel's face, carrying a deeper meaning. He was convinced that if Raegan were to fall in love, she would do so with all her heart and wouldn't have delayed it until now.

Based on what Matteo had found out, Raegan and Stefan had been acquainted for three years. The fact that they hadn't been together during those three years, and suddenly claiming to be a couple now, struck him as abrupt.

Mitchel wasn't familiar with Stefan, but he felt sure that Raegan was trying to fool him. It was unlikely for her to suddenly fall in love with someone she hadn't fallen for in three years.

With a stern look, Raegan said, "I didn't come here for you. I'm here because my brother hit you, and out of concern for humanity, I wanted to check on you."

Mitchel wasn't upset by her remark. He adjusted her mask and replied with a faint smile, "It's fine to come out of concern, but I'm not letting you go just yet."

Then, he called out to the door, “Come in."

Katie walked in, holding a thermos, her presence both graceful and elegant. She noticed Mitchel's shirt was partly unbuttoned, showcasing his attractive collarbone, and she felt her cheeks warm up.

"Mitchel, Matteo told me you ran into some trouble with a thug. How are you feeling?" she asked.

“It's nothing," Mitchel replied casually, his eyes drifting to Raegan, who was fiddling with her fingers, causing him to smile without realizing it.

Katie couldn't help but be captivated by his smile, so handsome and charming. She offered warmly, "I've got some free time these days.

How about I stay and look after you?"

Mitchel's reply was brisk. "No need." His response felt cold to Katie, and she was glad no one familiar was around to witness it. Otherwise, it would have been too embarrassing.

Yet, Katie noticed Raegan under the disguise of a nurse standing quietly to the side. Though Raegan's face was not visible due to the mask, her silhouette was gentle and slender.

Katie's gaze returned to Mitchel, his bare chest adding to his casual allure. She wondered if this nurse had been looking after Mitchel. It was unusual for him to let another woman be so close.
