With that, she signaled her departure and headed straight to her room without looking back.

Eloise was a bit confused. She turned to Mitchel and asked helplessly, “Mitchel, did I say something wrong?"

Mitchel remained silent, but his eyes darkened. After a while, he said, "It's not your fault. It's just that I'm not welcome here."

As soon as Raegan returned to her room, she lay on her bed and buried her head under the quilt. As she chewed on the recent events, the embarrassment overwhelmed her.

She actually told Mitchel not to do demeaning things. It turned out she was the one who had demeaned herself. What would Mitchel think?

He was probably speechless. He must have not expected her to be so eager to put herself in a favorable Light.

Raegan buried her head deeper into the pillow. It was as if she wanted her head to shrink like a turtle. Perhaps she could pretend nothing had happened. Anyway, she wouldn't see Mitchel frequently in the next few days.

Everything would be okay. Raegan tried to comfort herself.

Then, she suddenly remembered something. Wasn't it said that the person Eloise was with in the tent years back was Bryce? Why was Eloise with Mitchel now?

Wait! Bryce said he and Eloise kissed in the tent because they were just drunk. Aside from that, nothing else happened. That meant nothing was going on between Bryce and Eloise. In this case, Eloise could be with Mitchel.

After all, the Dixon family had a good impression of Eloise's background.

As these things came to Raegan's mind, she felt something was wrong with her. Why had she been thinking about Mitchel all along? Didn't she promise herself she would forget everything about him?

The next day, Raegan woke up, feeling listless. She didn't sleep last night. Her mind was a mess. In fact, the incense fell on the floor last night, but she didn't notice it and didn't pick it up.

Raegan had a quick breakfast and then went to see Erick.

Erick lay in the bed, and the nurse had just finished washing him up.

When he saw Raegan's pale face, he asked, “Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Upon seeing Erick's probing eyes, Raegan prevaricated, "I haven't been sleeping well lately."

Erick didn't doubt her words. Since she was about to give birth, she must be having difficulty sleeping. At the thought of this, he comforted her, “Don't worry about anything else. The most important thing now is for you to give birth to your babies safely."

Raegan felt a bit guilty. Many things had to be put on hold because of her upcoming delivery.

When Erick saw the expression on her face, he understood what was on her mind. So, he said, "It's not your fault. Don't think too much about it. As for the quicksand fire, we're still deciphering it. Davey has been staying indoors lately and even strengthened the security. We can't get in, and we can't force our way in. We're still figuring out a solution."
