Chapter: 2252
Yet, she could not let her well-devised miscarriage be for nothing.
With the same logic, she still had the means to send Raegan to prison.
But Katie did not anticipate her assistant bungling such a straightforward task.
The assistant, soaked with hot water and not daring to dodge, bowed her head and spoke. "Mr. Dixon's assistant stopped me and warned me not to be rash, or he would be the first to report me to the police for making false testimony."
Katie, enraged, threw her phone at her assistant and then started hurling whatever she could find. "He intimidated you, and you just believed him? Making false testimony? What proof does he have? I don't care. Go to the police station now and get that woman arrested!"
"I..." The assistant hesitated. After all, Mitchel's men had secured a video from an employee from the restaurant, vividly capturing Katie's plan to frame Raegan and her subsequent failure.
"What are you waiting for? Leave, now!" Katie flung a pillow at her assistant, but Mitchel, entering the room nonchalantly, caught it.
Mitchel then told Katie's assistant, "Leave."
The assistant, feeling as though she had been granted clemency, didn't even glance at Katie and hurried out. She was completely subdued by Mitchel's presence, forgetting that her actual superior was Katie.
“Mitchel, what is this supposed to mean?" Katie, overwhelmed by her emotions and not bothering to disguise them anymore, demanded answers.
She had lost her child and received not a shred of sympathy from Mitchel. Clearly, since the child was not his, he could not muster even a trace of empathy.
Mitchel ignored her inquiry and simply stated, "You've just had surgery. You need to rest.”
“What do you mean, ‘rest'?" Katie exploded in anger. “I've lost my child. I'm devastated! You owe me an explanation!"
Mitchel gave a faint, dismissive smile. "Devastated? If you're truly devastated, why don't you see your child?"
Katie was stunned by the mention of seeing her child. She thought her child was gone.
Before Katie could make sense of what was happening, Mitchel clapped his hands, signaling Matteo's entrance.
Matteo carried a small, black-draped box, stirring panic within Katie as she nervously awaited the reveal of the mysterious contents.
Katie's hands trembled with fear as she yelled at Matteo to stay away.
However, only taking orders from Mitchel, Matteo ignored her pleas and continued forward. He placed the box in front of Katie, lifted the cloth, and revealed its contents despite Katie's fear.
The room fell silent for a moment, after which Katie let out a loud scream. She was frightened by the sight of the content of the box.
