Chapter: 37
"It doesn't hurt as much as before," she replied, looking up at him pitifully.
“What exactly happened, Lauren?"
Mitchel asked that question lightly, but his tone inexplicably made other people feel a chill in their hearts.
"I think it was just an accident. Raegan was kind enough to help me with the wheelchair. Something is probably wrong with it. Please don't blame her, okay?"
Lauren sounded so understanding as she explained.
Mitchel looked at Lauren coldly. But a touch of warmth soon crept into his eyes.
He reasoned that he was wrong to have suspected Lauren.
After patting her on her shoulder, he pulled himself back away from her grip.
"Have a good rest now."
Lights poured down on Mitchel's dashing face.
Lauren was fascinated by his look now.
The sneaky devil in her didn't jump out until Mitchel left the ward.
Her smile was instantly replaced by a vicious scowl.
Argh! Mitchel suspected her because of Raegan!
Fortunately, Lauren had come up with a fair explanation before Mitchel's suspicion germinated into mistrust.
She chose to point out there was something wrong with the wheelchair.
In this way, even if Raegan decided to tell on her, Mitchel would have no choice but to think Raegan was vicious.
It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Yet, Lauren was very upset by Mitchel's reaction. The Mitchel she knew in the past would never question her for the sake of someone else. Today, he not only questioned but also suspected her because of Raegan.
Lauren adopted a trick today to gauge the situation. She usually didn't like to get her hands dirty. If she wanted a person out of her way, she would get someone else to do the dirty work.
