Katie, having observed Raegan's urgent retreat to the restroom and hand-covering, sensed something amiss. So she sent her assistant to investigate. To conceal her true intentions, Katie instructed her assistant to intentionally spill wine and food.

Katie struggled to accept the idea that Raegan might be pregnant.

After all, she knew Mitchel's recent schedule.

As far as Katie knew, Mitchel and Raegan hadn't been intimate or alone together these days. So, a child between them seemed far-fetched. Could Raegan be pregnant with another man's baby?

As Katie pondered, she grew certain that Raegan was carrying another man's child.

Previously, Katie had believed that Raegan was devoted to Mitchel, but now, the idea that Raegan had conceived a child with someone else so quickly after their separation was jarring. So much for the supposed years of love between them! Raegan was surely a slut. She knew it!

Pleased with her discovery, Katie could barely contain her excitement to share the news with Mitchel, eager to witness his reaction. After all, men tended to feel upset when their ex-partners move on quickly with new partners.

With Mitchel's harsh demeanor to her fresh in her mind, Katie intended to call him, anticipating the pleasure of personally delivering the news about Raegan's pregnancy. She wanted Mitchel to witness Raegan's true colors.

Determined to confirm the news, Katie reiterated her inquiry. "Are you absolutely positive that she's pregnant?"

The assistant drew a chair close to Katie, who covered her nose and waved dismissively, indicating the assistant to keep her distance.

The smell was overwhelming, and her pregnancy made it even more unbearable.

The assistant smiled awkwardly, retreated with her chair, and said, "She vomited again when I arrived. Afterward, I asked her if she was pregnant, and she vehemently denied it. But when I pretended to bump into her accidentally, she immediately protected her stomach. Surely, this is a telltale sign of pregnancy, isn't it?"

Katie's intuition had sharpened since the pregnancy, becoming almost a sixth sense. Thus, with a single glance, Katie suspected that Raegan might be pregnant.

In the end, Katie's suspicion proved true.

“She's less than five months pregnant," the assistant remarked with confidence. "A baby bump doesn't usually show before five months, and it grows rapidly later in the seventh and eighth months. I'd say she's somewhere between three and four months pregnant."

Three to four months... Katie was speechless, her face a blank slate of shock. That timeframe... No shit! Could Raegan's child be Mitchel's?

Katie's gaze turned inward as she rummaged through her memories from three to four months ago, the period just before the explosion. Back then, Mitchel and Raegan were Like two peas in a pod, impenetrable and inseparable.

The deeper Katie delved into the past, the more she was convinced Raegan's child was indeed Mitchel's.

Katie gritted her teeth, her eyes blazing with venomous fury. For years, she had clung to Mitchel like a shadow, Loving him under the guise of friendship. And when she was finally on the verge of becoming his wife, also known as the wife of the heir of the Dixon family, thanks to Henley's manipulation, all her plans might come to naught.

Henley had promised that their plot would be an unqualified success.
