Chapter: 2167
As far as Raegan knew, Mitchel was not the type to raise someone else's child. She dared not consider the one possibility that remained. Could Katie's child actually be his?
This thought tormented her even more. The idea that Mitchel made out with her while being with another woman made her feel nauseous.
Hastily, Raegan grabbed her herbal remedy to stave off the urge to vomit.
Raegan calmed herself for a moment and then tried to close the webpage. She thought her actions over the past few days had proven that she was over it. Yet, her fingers trembled. She attempted to shut down her laptop three times without success. In frustration, she slammed the laptop closed.
The office was empty and Elin was on the verge of leaving. Elin asked cautiously, "Raegan, are you heading home? I can give you a ride."
As Elin spoke, her phone rang, but she ignored it.
Raegan shook her head and replied, “Don't worry about me. Go on back to your work. My driver's waiting downstairs."
Once home, Raegan settled into a bath. The warm water couldn't ease the chill in her heart.
Over the next few days, even without paying attention to Mitchel and Katie, Raegan kept encountering news about them.
“Mr. Dixon is out shopping for furniture with his fiancée.."
“Mr. Dixon and his fiancée are enjoying a late dinner..."
“The CEO of the Dixon Group and his fiancée are spotted at a beauty treatment..."
It seemed the media was intent on painting Mitchel as the ideal man, sparking envy among many. Comments even popped up in the news comparing him to other men.
"A man as busy as he is still finds time for beauty treatments with his fiancée. What about you?"
"A man worth millions still makes time for late-night snacks with his wife. What about you?"
Raegan felt bad at first, but eventually, she became numb.
As time passed, she started to believe what the media claimed.
Mitchel truly loved Katie. The things he did for Katie were, after all, extraordinary.
Raegan sensed she never truly knew Mitchel. He had daringly saved her by pushing her out of the car loaded with explosives while driving the dangerous car into the sea. Yet, upon his miraculous return, he claimed he didn't love her anymore and his actions seemed to suggest he had developed feelings for Katie. She struggled to discern the truth.
One evening after work, Elin asked, “Raegan, would you Like to go out for dinner with me?"
