"You know I hate people who play tricks in my presence the most. I told you to choose whatever you like, but some things are off the shelf now."

It was as if he emptied a basin of cold water on Lauren now.

Lauren panicked. Did he find out what she did?

But even if she provoked Raegan with words, so what?

Mitchel was always so doting. He never frowned at her before.

But in recent times, he became suspicious of her and even questioned her. It was all Raegan's fault!

That bitch deserved to die!

Lauren was on the brink of losing her temper, but when she remembered Jocelyn's advice, she took in a deep breath.

With tearful eyes, she opened WhatsApp and held out her phone to him.

She uttered, “Are you suspecting me? If you don't believe me, check it yourself!"

It was a chat history of her asking her aunt's opinion about the ring a few days ago.

Mitchel's face softened a little. He sighed.

"Fine!"

"Mitchel, it's still me, Lauren. How could you think of me like that?

Your divorce is getting finalized tomorrow. Why would I feel the need to do such a thing?" Lauren said and began to cry sadly.

"Stop crying, will you? Remember that the doctor said emotional stress is bad for your health?" Mitchel cautioned her.

"But I can't help it! You are hurting me, Mitchel. You and I go way back, yet you still don't trust me. What's the point of me getting better? I'd rather die..."

Lauren cried so hard that her body shook violently and she could barely breathe properly.

“Come on, stop talking about death! I'll make sure you get better."

Mitchel squeezed her shoulder comfortingly.
