The truth was, she did not actually kiss him earlier. Mitchel had deftly avoided her. She had made loud noises on purpose because she was afraid of losing face. But she did not realize she had crossed his boundaries.

Mitchel did not wait for her and marched ahead.

Eloise forced herself to calm down and hurried after him.

She could not ruin this shopping trip, especially given the efforts of Mitchel's father on her behalf.

Meanwhile, Raegan and Nicole were shopping at a cosmetics store on the first floor.

After a while, Nicole excused herself to use the restroom, so Raegan wandered around while waiting.

A few steps away, Raegan spotted a wallet on the ground. It was a simple black Kraft design, adorned with a short-name logo. She recognized it at once.

Raegan was reluctant to pick it up at first. But as she pondered, she thought of the potential risk to Mitchel if his identity documents got lost and fell into the wrong hands.

With that, she picked up the wallet, intending to hand it over to the reception desk so they could inform its owner.

However, before she could take a few steps, she saw Mitchel standing by the railing and talking to someone on the phone. Eloise was nowhere in sight.

Not wanting to cause a scene, Raegan gently tugged on his sleeve to get his attention.

She was about to say something when he suddenly shook her hand off and snapped, “Don't touch me."

Mitchel's action surprised Raegan. His forceful motion caused Raegan to stumble and fall and the wallet to fly out of her grasp.

Pain seared through Raegan's hand. She must have scraped her skin on the floor. Moreover, her ankle throbbed, possibly sprained.

Hearing a yelp, Mitchel impatiently turned around. His expression shifted to shock upon seeing Raegan on the floor. He immediately extended his hand to help. But then, Nicole happened to emerge from the bathroom and pushed him away.

Nicole had seen how Mitchel mercilessly pushed Raegan away. Without a second thought, she rushed up to Mitchel and jabbed her finger at him.

“Are you a man or not? How could you hit your ex-wife?!"

Mitchel's face turned pale. He wanted to approach Raegan and apologize, but Nicole blocked his way.

At the same time, Eloise came out of the restroom. Upon hearing from Nicole that Raegan was Mitchel's mysterious ex-wife, she stood there, utterly stunned.

She feared Raegan might attempt to rekindle her relationship with Mitchel. It was not impossible, considering Raegan was pretty.
