But even if she had, what could she have done? Could she really have stopped Mitchel from undergoing the surgery and deny him the chance to get better?

Fortunately, the results were positive. Now that the surgery proved to be a success, there was no point in dwelling on it.

Mitchel knew she was worried and fearful about the potential complication, but he had no regrets about undergoing the surgery. He wanted to offer her the best, including the best version of himself, because she deserved nothing less.

Mitchel's recovery was swift, and the surgery turned out to be a resounding success.

While he wasn't ready for intense activities, he could walk normally and stand for hours without any problems.

Soon, their wedding day arrived.

Raegan slipped into the beautiful wedding gown she had designed during her college days. It was a dream finally coming true. Today, she was donning her own creation, marrying the man she loved.

She waited in the dressing room, poised to make her entrance at the right moment.

Just then, the door creaked open.

Hearing light footsteps, Raegan called out, thinking it was Judd, her assistant, “Is it time?"

The figure didn't respond but continued moving toward her.

Alerted, Raegan spun around, confronting an unexpected guest.

The man wore a white tuxedo, looking both handsome and refined. He dressed as if he were the groom.

“Henley?” Raegan called out his name cautiously. "How did you get in here?"

After being arrested, Alexis had confessed everything in a bid to steer Henley clear of the mess. But was it ever possible for misdeeds to go undetected?

Henley's manipulative strategies to sneak onto the board of directors had been laid bare, the police uncovering irrefutable evidence and now hot on his heels.

Raegan had assumed he'd escaped abroad and was shocked to find him at her wedding.

With an icy grin, Henley remarked, “It's your wedding. I might not be the groom, but I just had to be here."

“Mr. Brooks, I don't think our past merits an invite to each other's weddings," Raegan replied.

Grinning, Henley replied, “You're so cruel, Raegan. I'm not here to cause trouble."
