Raegan now understood what he meant. Her cheeks grew hot and she retorted in a voice tinged with anger, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Eyes twinkling mischievously, Mitchel rasped, "I'm not just blabbering. It's actually quite handy, especially for special occasions. Not just your feet, but also..."

He leaned in closer and whispered a few other parts into her ear.

Raegan flushed even deeper and shouted, "You are such a pervert!"

"Yes," Mitchel agreed readily, still holding on to her foot. His voice was relaxed and indulgent. "I only become a pervert when I see you."

It was evident that he was in a good mood today. That was why he kept teasing her.

Mitchel had been in a good mood since he heard Reagan blurt out that sentence, indicating she didn't have a boyfriend. He was so elated that he didn't even feel the pain from his wounds anymore.

At this time, he was done applying the ointment, so he placed her foot on the shelf so the ointment would dry.

Then, he left the bed to wash his hands. When he returned, he gathered Raegan close until there was only a whisper of space left between them. When he spoke again, his voice was low and seductive.

"Don't you want to see how perverted I can be?"

Raegan was speechless. Truly, she was completely and utterly gobsmacked. Her mouth hung slightly open and she could do nothing but gape at him. How could anyone be so proud of being called a pervert?

Mitchel's facial expression made it seem like he wanted to tattoo "I'm a pervert" on his forehead for all to see.

Raegan averted her gaze, hoping to cool the blush on her cheeks. “I don't want to see. Don't get so close to me."

"You really don't want to?" Mitchel's eyes narrowed, but there was a teasing glint in his eyes. "You used to like it very much..."

Again, Raegan blushed, and this time, even the tips of her ears turned red. This man was cheeky.

“Stay away from me," Raegan grumbled, rolling her eyes. “You have a fiancée, yet you have no self-control.”

Mitchel gave her a gentle tug and stated, “Don't be silly. I've already told you multiple times that I don't have a fiancée. You are the only woman I've ever been with.”

He raised his finger and said seriously, "I swear."

Mitchel's eyes were firm and he really didn't appear to be lying.

Katie, on the hand, seemed to be quite the expert at making things up.
