Lauren thought it was the right time, and she must seize the opportunity. There were so many people here tonight. She had to find a way to substantiate those rumors spreading around. In this way, she could get a hold of Mitchel. So after she stood up, she attempted to fall into his arms.

However, Mitchel seemed to have read through her mind. He firmly held her shoulder with one hand, preventing her from falling.

Then he said coldly, "If you don't feel well, go home and rest."

After saying this, he turned around and left, ignoring Lauren's injury.

"Mitchel..." Lauren cried aggrievedly. But Mitchel just turned a deaf ear to her and continued to walk away.

Lauren's body swayed a bit. The expression on her face became terrible.

Mitchel walked in the direction where Luciana and Raegan went.

Obviously, he would look for them.

Could it be that Mitchel had really fallen in love with Raegan already?

As this thought flashed across Lauren's mind, hatred instantly filled her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly.

At this moment, Tessa walked to Lauren and held her arm.

“Lauren, let's go. You need some rest.”

Tessa took Lauren to one of the guest rooms. As soon as Tessa closed the door, she walked to Lauren on the bed and asked, “Lauren, were you also bullied by that old woman?"

When Lauren heard the word also, she looked up at Tessa. Then she saw Tessa's red and swollen face. She instantly understood what had happened.

With tears in her eyes, Lauren asked, "Did Luciana slap you?"

Tessa said through clenched teeth, "Yes. And it's all because of that bitch Raegan."

If it weren't for Raegan, she wouldn't be beaten up by Luciana. She wouldn't be humiliated like this!

Lauren cried sadly, “Tessa, I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't help you this time. I'm really interested in your investment plan, but you have seen Luciana's attitude. Besides, Raegan is pregnant now. I'm afraid that Mitchel..."

Last time, Lauren pretended to be interested in Tessa's project, so they met and talked about it. Then she gave Tessa a deposit of one million dollars and promised to invest more after she and Mitchel got married.

“What? That bitch is pregnant? Are you serious?"
