Raegan just stared at him in response.

"“Raegan, I only saved Lauren that day to pay off my debt. She once saved my life, after all. I had no idea you'd get hurt. If I had known, I never would have gone after her," Mitchel explained in a hoarse voice.

Raegan remained expressionless. She was neither sad, touched, nor angry.

“Are you done? Can I go now?"

Her words struck Mitchel like a thunderbolt, and pain radiated through his chest.

"Do you really despise me so much you can't stand seeing me?"

"What do you think, Mitchel?" Raegan scoffed.

“Every time I see you, I'm reminded of how you left me in the parking lot to save another woman and how you ignored me when I begged you to save my baby."

Raegan tried, with all her might, to keep her emotions in check.

She was through with him. She felt neither love nor resentment toward him. Just nothing.

Mitchel's face went as white as a sheet at her every word. Moreover, he felt as if a sharp blade was lodged in his chest, rendering him breathless.

Though he had agreed to get a divorce because she threatened him with her life, he did not know how to face her for now.

As she prepared to exit the car, Raegan looked at his pale face and said with a faint smile, "Take care. Let this be our last goodbye."

Her smile was sincere and not forced. It was as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. She felt no need for drawn-out goodbyes.

After all, she wanted nothing but for their paths never to cross again.

To her disappointment, she might see Mitchel again. The terms of their divorce required discretion to keep it from Kyler.

As long as Kyler wanted to see her, she would pay him a visit. It was inevitable for her and Mitchel to see each other, even if she tried her best to avoid him.

Meanwhile, Mitchel was left grappling with his emotions. The smile Raegan wore was unbearable to him. It was a silent reminder of all he had lost.

As he watched her receding figure, a bitter taste filled his mouth.

But then, slowly, darkness overtook his sight. Before he knew it, he slumped over in the car, unconscious.
