Love Unbreakable

Chapter 299 Do I Meet Your Criteria Raegan was surprised to find that Mitchel was also dining at the restaurant. She couldn't help but wonder about his intentions behind sending her a bottle of fine vintage wine. Was he trying to cause trouble for her? Stefan noticed Mitchel whose piercing gaze was directed at their table.

Concerned for Raegan, he called out softly, "Raegan?" Startled, Raegan snapped back to reality and looked at Stefan. "What is it?" "Is everything okay?" Stefan asked with concern.

Raegan shook her head and assured

him, "Everything's fine. Don't worry.

Let's just enjoy our meal." Stefan wasn't one to press for. answers if Raegan didn't want to discuss it further.

The waiter remained nearby and asked, "Miss, would you like me to open the wine for you?" Raegan took a sip from her glass and casually responded, "No, thanks. Just throw it away." The waiter misunderstood Raegan's request, thinking she wanted him to pour the wine into a glass. So, he began to open the bottle.

Raegan raised her gaze and reiterated, "I mean, throw it away." Seeing that the waiter still didn't get it, she clarified, "Throw the bottle in the trash can."

| Shocked, the waiter stammered "Throw... Throw it in the trash can?" "You heard me." «dl ~ Raegan meant it. Wasn't Mitchel watching her? If so, she would make some scenes for him to see.

The waiter, however, struggled to bring himself to throw away a valuable bottle of fine vintage wine, given its worth. How could someone just dump itin the trash can? "I'll do it." Raegan decided to take matters into her own hands. She snatched the bottle and tossed it into the trash can.

From his vantage point upstairs, Mitchel witnessed the entire scene, his expression growing colder by the moment. Raegan had told him she was busy with work, yet here she was, dating another man. Not only that, but

she also threw his wine in such a manner. She even wiped her hands with a disgusted expression afterward.

Holy shit! ) "Raegan seems to be doing this on purpose. You poor thing!" Luis commented with a grin. "The guy over there looks handsome. It seems Raegan could have a fantastic life without you!" Mitchel's handsome face darkened even more, and he fired back, "Why don't you just shut up, or I'll kick you out myself." Luis seemed unfazed by Mitchel's threat. He was used to Mitchel's temper and even felt sorry for him.

Despite his good looks, Mitchel had never been good at chasing after girls, and that was why he always pissed Raegan off while trying to win her back.

At this moment, Luis cleared his throat, glanced at Raegan's table, and offered some advice, "You know, { Mitchel, you need to learn how to win over your girl. Show Raegan how much you care about her. Don't always be so domineering. That way, people will only be scared away by you." Luis seemed to have forgotten that he was single. Not wanting to hear any of Luis' bullshit, Mitchel abruptly stood up and made his way downstairs.

"Hey, bro, where are you going? If you don't heed my advice, you'll regret it!" Luis called out, but Mitchel continued going down the stairs with a somber expression.

Meanwhile, Raegan and Stefan were almost done eating. Stefan was carefully peeling a crab for Raegan.

Feeling a little embarrassed, Raegan spoke up. "Stefan, it's all my bad today.

| I said I'd introduce a girl to you, bu she couldn't make it." After the phone call, Elin sent - message to Raegan, saying that she didn't want to be in any relationship a the moment.

It puzzled Raegan since Elin hadn't objected when they had discussed the topic earlier. Why had Elin suddenly changed her mind? Raegan resolved to have a heart-to- heart conversation with Elin when she returned.

Stefan, in a gentle tone, began, "Raegan, actually, I don't want a girlfriend." Hearing this, Raegan looked at him in bewilderment. She couldn't understand why both Elin and Stefan were rejecting the idea of being in a relationship.

| With a faint smile on his face, Stef: continued, "I'm looking for someo who's ready to take that walk dow the aisle with me." 4 "Are you saying you want to start family?" Raegan asked.

"Well, I'm getting on in years, yo know." "Don't be absurd. You're not that old I'd say you're quite young anc handsome." "Really? You think so?" Stefan beamed.

"Absolutely. I swear I'm telling the truth." Seeing that Stefan didn't seem to believe her words, Raegan said earnestly, "You look like a college student." Raegan decided to be candid since she considered Stefan as an older brother figure. She often used this kind of flattery with Erick, so she thought it

might work similarly with Stefan.

"Well, what kind of man do you like then?" Stefan casually asked.

"My type?" Raegan pondered over the question.

"If you were looking for a stepfather for Janey, what type of person would you prefer?" Stefan urged.

Raegan's mind raced. A stepfather for Janey... The image of Mitchel popped into Raegan's mind, but she quickly shook her head to dismiss the thought.

"I have only one requirement: he must be kind to Janey," Raegan finally replied.

"And what about you?" "Me?" Raegan asked with confusion written all over her face.

Stefan nodded. "Don't you have any expectations for your man?"

Raegan pondered for a moment and answered, "Well, he should be easygoing, responsible, and honest with me." i= Stefan refilled their drinks and dropped a bomb. "Do you think I meet your criteria?" "Ahem..." Raegan nearly choked on a drink upon hearing his question.

Seeing that Stefan was about to rush to her aid, Raegan waved her hand to signal to him not to worry.

While Raegan drank, Stefan asked straightforwardly, "Erick told me that you're looking for someone to be Janey's stepfather. Would you consider me?" Raegan took a deep breath, surprised by his words. "Stefan, you..." "Raegan, I have no romantic aspirations, and I believe I'm at the

right age to start a family. We complement each other in many ways, and Janey likes me. I think I'm a ¢ suitable candidate for the role," Stefan said seriously.

Raegan agreed with him. He was indeed a good fit to be Janey's stepfather.

As a scholar, Stefan had little interest in romantic matters and approached things rationally. He believed that he was at an age where starting a family was appropriate, and he was willing to accept Raegan as his wife.

Raegan understood Stefan's practical approach. It was obvious he wasn't seeking a passionate romance but rather a compatible partner to be his spouse.

For a moment, Raegan was silent, lost in thought. After a short while, she concluded that Stefan was indeed the

most suitable man for her. She knew him well and was confident he would be good to Janey.

still, the suddenness of it all took Raegan by surprise. She had planned to set up Stefan with Elin. But now, their paths seemed to be diverging.

But then again, there was something more pressing on her mind.

"Actually, right now, I..." Raegan began.

Just as Raegan was about to express her thoughts to Stefan, her words were abruptly cut off by a cold and stern voice. "Are you finished with dinner?" Mitchel appeared out of nowhere, pulled a chair between Raegan and Stefan, and took a seat. He noticed the crab meat on Raegan's plate, personally peeled by Stefan, and his expression darkened, though he said nothing for the moment.

Raegan found herself in a rather awkward situation as Mitchel abruptly interrupted their conversation.

Realizing that Mitchel was the one who had sent the wine, Stefan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Raegan, who's this?" "He's my ex-husband," Raegan replied.

"Her current husband," Mitchel corrected her.

Then, a silence engulfed them.

Upon hearing Raegan's words, Mitchel's face grew even darker.

Noticing the tension between Raegan and Mitchel, Stefan chose not to say anything. Raegan remembered the last time Mitchel had shown her their wedding photo seemingly out of nowhere. She didn't want to escalate the situation in public. She composed herself and reluctantly clarified, "He'll

soon be my ex." Mitchel felt frustrated by her remark.

What was the point of her explaining their status? Meanwhile, Stefan remained composed and level-headed. Despite having questions, he knew better than to put Raegan in a predicament.

"Shall we go now?" Stefan suggested to Raegan, who nodded in response.

Stefan stood up. With that, he and Raegan left the table without so much as a glance at Mitchel.

Mitchel's expression darkened. Raegan acted like it was as if he were invisible to her.

Mitchel couldn't bear it any longer. He loosened the button on his collar, strode forward, grabbed Raegan's wrist from behind, and pulled her into his arms.

Raegan struggled, but her efforts were in vain.

"If you keep resisting me, I won't hesitate to remind you of that kiss.

And this time, I won't be lenient with you," Mitchel warned sternly in a low voice.
