Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRaegan's Confession At a hotel in Ardlens, Henley's parents were eagerly awaiting their arrival at the entrance.
As Raegan approached, Henley's mother embraced her warmly and presented her with some gifts.
Obviously, Gerda was delighted with her son's choice of girlfriend.
Raegan did not have the heart to refuse those gifts prepared by Gerda.
Following Henley's cue, she accepted them but secretly planned to return them to Henley later.
Just then, Henley received a call and gestured for them to head upstairs without him.
Gerda linked arms with Raegan and chatted amiably as they walked toward the elevator.
But just after taking two steps, Raegan stopped in her tracks when she spotted a familiar figure.
It was Mitchel.
The tall, commanding figure, flanked by a group, was heading toward the same elevator.
Their eyes briefly met.
But the next second, they both averted their gaze with feigned indifference.
Raegan couldn't help but feel what a coincidence! Not wanting to share the elevator with Mitchel, Raegan slowed her pace.
Unfortunately for her, just as the doors were about to close, Mitchel held the door open with his hand and stared at her and
Gerda.
"Coming in?" As Raegan was about to say she would just wait for the next elevator, Gerda led her into the elevator.
Gerda then turned to Mitchel and thanked him with a smile.
Once the elevator doors closed, a deafening silence enveloped the space.
Mitchel said nothing, and so did everyone around him, making the atmosphere weird.
Gerda, still holding Raegan's hand, enthusiastically said, "Raegan, I hike you the moment I saw you.
You're so adorable.
You and Henley should marry soon and settle down.
I'm looking forward to the day Henley and you start a family and have some kids." Upon hearing this, Raegan felt sharp eyes
piercing through her back.
She managed a strained smile and replied, "Gerda, it's too early to think about that...” "Tunderstand you young people want to
spend more time together before the baby comes,” Gerda assured with a smile, "But don’t worry.
Once you give birth to the baby, I'll be there to help you take care of it.” Raegan's embarrassment deepened, and she could only
laugh awkwardly in response.
Ding.
Finally, the elevator reached their floor.
Raegan hurriedly guided Gerda out, anxious that Gerda's enthusiasm might lead to her saying more shocking words.
Raegan was quite uneasy, not only because of the unexpected encounter with Mitchel but also by Gerda's pointed questions
about marriage and children.
Although she struggled to respond, she managed to remain polite.
I'll make sure you have a magnificent wedding in the future," Gerda continued, seemingly oblivious to Raegan’s discomfort.
Raegan smiled awkwardly.
She could not help but feel that Gerda was rushing her toward marriage.
No wonder Henley wanted her to pretend to be his girlfriend tonight.
Not wanting to make things difficult for Henley, Raegan simply smiled and said nothing.
A few moments later, she excused herself since it became too much to bear.
Reagan made her way to the washroom.
Once inside, she splashed cold water on her face, and the chill helped clear her mind.
Encountering Mitchel twice in one day had soured her mood.
Not only that, his insinuation that she was flattering herself was particularly hurtful.
How ridiculous.
It was ironic how her once unreserved love was worthless in his eyes.
Thankfully, Raegan had freed herself from any more humiliation with the divorce.
Once she calmed down, she fixed her hair in front of the mirror and applied some lip balm.
With that, she was ready to face the world again.
But when she stepped out, she saw Mitchel smoking in a corner.
Their eyes met through the haze of smoke, and Raegan's heart skipped a beat.
She sensed something in his gaze.
Raegan did not want to meet him.
But she had to pass by him since it was the only way to return to the chamber.
She tried to reassure herself.
Mitchel seemed disinterested in her today, and he was never short of admirers.
She doubted he would go out of his way to trouble her.
At this moment, she put on a facade of composure and began to make her way back.
As she approached Mitchel, he extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray and, to her surprise, blocked her path.
Raegan stopped in her tracks, faced the wall, and waited for him to walk over.
But he stayed put and maintained his stance.
She lifted her gaze, and her heart raced when she met his icy stare.
Raegan tried, with all her might, to remain calm and composed.
"Excuse me." "Where are you going?" Mitchel asked, which took her by surprise.
After a brief pause, Raegan replied lightly, "That's none of your business." It was then that she realized Mitchel was not going to
move an inch for her to pass by.
Not wanting to create a scene with him, especially in public, she tried to squeeze past the narrow space.
But as Raegan moved, Mitchel grabbed her thigh, nearly causing her to stumble.
In a panic, she grabbed him for support.
To her shock, Mitchel pulled her into the men's restroom.
Despite her struggles, she found herself against a cubicle door.
In the restroom of a luxurious seven-star hotel, the lighting was soft yet bright enough to illuminate the spacious area.
A subtle fragrance lingered in the air.
Raegan caught her reflection on the glossy white porcelain wall.
Her hair was disheveled, and she found herself tilting her head back involuntarily.
On the other hand, Mitchel's attire remained impeccably neat, which highlighted her disarray.
“Mitchel, you’re insane.
Let me go!" Raegan bellowed, her eyes bloodshot in anger.
Mitchel grabbed her chin and forcefully tilted her face up to meet his eyes.
"Can't stay away from him, huh? What did Henley do to win you over?” The contempt in his words was unmistakable.
But only Mitchel knew the reason he said those harsh words was to hide the jealousy churning inside him.
Raegan had consistently rejected his attempts at reconciliation.
He had tried everything, from humility to assertiveness, but nothing swayed her.
Her rejections had driven him to near madness.
Settling down...
Having a child...
He could not comprehend how she could consider such things with someone else.
There seemed to be an electric drill in his head, which made Mitchel feel a headache.
In frustration, Mitchel gripped her face tighter and demanded, "Answer me!" Raegan winced in pain.
Had she not been restrained, she would have slapped him across the face.
“What the hell is wrong with you, Mitchel? We're divorced.
My life is none of your business.
You have no right to treat me like this.” Tears brimmed in her eyes, but Raegan refused to back down.
"You lied to me!" Mitchel shot back, his eyes blazed with fury.
He looked as though he was going to devour her.
"You once said you didn't like him.
So what's this about now? Are you that keen on having his baby?" The mention of a "baby" struck a nerve in Raegan, fueling her
anger.
Of all people, Mitchel should not have misunderstood her.
She had once longed for a child with him.
Their child, who never got to see the world, left a void in her heart.
Mitchel failed to grasp her pain.
And now he stood here, misconstruing her intentions.
Why must she alone bear this agony? If the mere thought of her moving on in her life with another man could wound Mitchel’s
pride, maybe it was time for her to make him suffer as well.
With this in mind, Raegan's lips curled into a smile, and she resolutely said, "Yes, I do like him.
And yes, I want to have a child with him.
Satisfied?" Mitchel's mind went blank as if he had been struck by a meteorite.
She admitted it.
She finally admitted to loving Henley!
