So, she shook her head.

“I think we are better this way."

Obviously, Raegan meant she couldn't accept Mitchel now.

She didn't want to experience those unnecessary sufferings again.

Mitchel understood Raegan's hesitation. He knew after everything that happened, it was not easy for her to accept him again. So, he didn't press her.

“I won't force you to accept me right now. I know it will take some time, and I am willing to wait. But I have a request."

Raegan raised her head and looked at him. He continued, “Don't keep avoiding me anymore."

Raegan found it hard to resist being gazed at by his deep and charming eyes, so she lowered her head again and said, “If you don't want me to avoid you, don't force me to do something against my will."

"Okay," Mitchel agreed without hesitation.

He could force her to stay by his side with tons of approaches. But he no longer wanted to hurt her even a bit.

Mitchel didn't want to make things difficult for Raegan anymore, so he patted the bed and said, “It's late. Come and sleep now."

Raegan shook her head.

“I'll just sit here. I'm not sleepy yet. I‘UL just lie down later if I feel tired.”

Actually, she only didn't want to be on the same bed with Mitchel.

She silently complained about the lack of an extra bed for the family in the VIP ward which cost thousands of dollars every day.

Just now, she went to the nurse station and asked whether she could rent a folding bed like other hospitals had equipped. However, this hospital didn't provide such a service.

Raegan quietly cursed this hospital for its so-so service at a staggering price.

Seeing that Raegan remained in her seat, Mitchel also sat on his bed and didn't sleep.

Actually, it helped with the recovery of his wound if he lay still.

But he refused to lie down without Raegan lying by his side.
