Their past and his vow that she would come back to his side had left her reeling from the trauma.

All she wanted right now was to get away from him.

Mitchel smiled mischievously.

"Relax, Raegan. I won't harm you."

Her discomfort was palpable as if being near him was unbearable.

“Don't get me wrong." Raegan turned her face away, unable to meet Mitchel's intense gaze.

She was at a loss for words.

No matter how much she tried, it seemed impossible to sway Mitchel from his resolve.

Luckily, the elevator doors finally opened.

Raegan hurried out. Just as she stepped out, her phone rang with a call from Henley, which she immediately answered.

On the other side, Henley asked her where she was and offered to pick her up for their meeting.

Seeing that Mitchel had not left yet, Raegan covered her phone and whispered, "I'm at a hospital.

Before she could finish, Mitchel pushed her against the wall and trapped her with his arm.

Raegan's eyes widened in shock. Before she could react, Mitchel snatched her phone and said to Henley, "Don't bother. I'll take her there."

Raegan was still in shock when Mitchel abruptly ended the call.

Mitchel gave Raegan a cold, hard stare and said, “Funny coincidence.

I was just about to go to the very place where he asked you to go."

He then picked her up all of a sudden, catching her off guard.

Raegan's face hit his chest and rebounded, leaving her startled.

Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around his neck.
