Chapter: 500
Raegan gave a straightforward nod, which took Mitchel by surprise and made him smile.
With a pleased smile, he leaned down to find her lips and kissed her passionately.
"You should know I have no feelings for her beyond gratitude."
However, Raegan was dissatisfied with his reassurance. Mitchel had said this before, but he always ended up choosing Lauren over her.
“Every time I have a conflict with her, you side with her. Just because I don't complain doesn't mean it doesn't get to me."
She lifted her eyes to meet his, and her thick eyelashes seemed to graze his soul.
"I do mind, Mitchel. I don't think anyone would want their husband to act that way toward another woman."
As they lay there face-to-face and their gazes locked on each other, Mitchel was genuinely surprised by her candidness.
Moreover, an indescribable feeling of satisfaction rose from the bottom of his heart.
"I see. I'll be more mindful in the future," Mitchel assured her.
Raegan was not expecting Mitchel to erase Lauren from his life altogether. But at least he was willing to make a change.
Maybe it was something Luciana had said that had lit a fire under her and made her want to fight for her happiness. Even if she failed, at least she had tried her best.
"This your last chance," Raegan stated firmly while staring into Mitchel's eyes.
Mitchel saw the resolution in Raegan's eyes, which made him inexplicably nervous.
Mitchel kissed her eyes and held her tightly in his arms.
"Raegan, I promise you, from now on, you'll be the only woman I keep close to my heart."
Upon hearing this, Raegan looked up to gauge his expression.
God, this man was a work of art. His face and features were as flawless as a sculpture, especially his piercing eyes.
At this moment, Raegan saw her own reflection in those charming eyes and felt a ripple of emotion wash over her.
Raegan withdrew her sight nervously, but then her eyes fell on Mitchel's throat. He happened to swallow, and she seized the moment to plant a kiss there.
