Chapter 356 How Will You Compensate Me At this time, Matteo entered Mitchel's ward. He walked in just in time to hear Mitchel's comment about "being Raegan's lover." He couldn't help but lower his head and let out a small laugh.
Earlier, while he was instructed to lead Raegan to prepare the soup for Mitchel, Matteo realized the nurse in disguise was actually Raegan.
Mitchel felt even more embarrassed by this. He never expected Matteo to come in just in time to catch his words. Annoyed, he asked, "What did you come in for?" Matteo quickly replied, "I brought you
the soup." Matteo had noticed the soup Raegan prepared had spilled, so he saved what was left in a thermos, thinking Mitchel was looking forward to taking a sip. He hadn't expected to stumble upon such an amusing chat.
Without saying much, Matteo served a bowl of soup, placing it carefully in front of Mitchel. As he turned around, he caught sight of Raegan's bare feet.
He thought he had never seen such beautiful feet before. The toes reminded him of pearls, round, shiny, and adorable. He found himself staring at Raegan's feet a bit too long.
Suddenly, a cough from Mitchel snapped Matteo out of his daze.
Mitchel was giving Matteo a cold look, as if warning him.
Matteo flinched, quickly ducked his head, and decided it was best to leave, However, after Mitchel picked up-the soup and tasted it, he told Matteo, "Finish the rest." Matteo was surprised. He never thought Mitchel would share what Raegan had prepared with him.
Back when Raegan prepared the nutritional soup, Matteo had been watching eagerly from the side, having enjoyed Raegan's cooking before, which was incredibly delicious.
Raegan looked uneasy, observing Matteo cheerfully take the thermos and leave. She silently hoped that Matteo wouldn't drink it.
Mitchel eyed the creamy white soup and asked, "Did you make this?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yeah," Raegan replied, feeling a bit guilty. "I really put effort into it, almost burnt my fingers." .
Mitchel gave a small smile, his tone cool but kind. "That sounds challenging." With that, he lifted the bowl.
Seeing the medicine on her toes, which Mitchel had applied for her, Raegan was hesitant. He was thorough and thoughtful toward her. But the soup she prepared for him was...
Perhaps she was being a little unfair...
As Mitchel was about to take a sip, Raegan quickly said, "You might want to think twice before drinking that." But as those words escaped Raegan's lips, Mitchel had already finished it in one go.
Raegan stared as he placed the empty bowl down. She was astounded. After finishing the soup, she had mixed in a whole bottle of white pepper. It was supposed to be sharp and unpleasant to taste.
"Are you feeling alright?" Raegan gazed into his eyes, searching for any sign of discomfort.
Noticing his frown and silence, Raegan felt a wave of worry wash over her.
"Didn't I warn you against drinking that?" Just as she was about to fetch him some water, on her bare feet, he caught her wrist and gently pulled her close to him.
"t's actually not bad," he remarked.
"Huh?" Raegan could only muster a surprised grunt after a brief, breathless
pause. She vividly recalled pouring a whole bottle of white pepper into the mix. How could it possibly be okay? Mitchel, with a calm tone, offered, "Care to give it a try?" "What?" Raegan, puzzled by his sudden shift in conversation and about to inquire further, found herself abruptly drawn closer as Mitchel reached out, gently held the back of her head, and pressed his lips to hers.
At that moment, everything around them fell silent. His firm grip on her, the way his lips explored the sweetness of hers, and his tongue created a whirlwind of sensations.
The kiss, sweet with a hint of spice, was an exotic thrill.
Raegan's eyes, wide and clear, showed her astonishment, forgetting to pull
away. Her mind cleared of everything but the intensity of his kiss. Memories of their past passionate encounters flooded her thoughts... 5 Her cheeks flushed a deep shade of red. Everything he had said was indeed true... Under his spell, she had let herself go too far...
Mitchel kissed Raegan, feeling the longing he had carried for so long, breathing in the scent of her hair that he found so comforting.
"Mmm..." Raegan started to come back to reality, trying to say no, but instead, her voice sounded more like a sigh, which only encouraged Mitchel more.
Mitchel held her tight, making it hard for her to move or get away.
At first, his intention was to teach her a lesson. He was very sensitive to the
smell of pepper, and he figured she must have added a lot, maybe even a whole bottle.
But as the kiss grew more intense, his feelings took over. He found himself wanting to kiss her endlessly.
"Bang!" Suddenly, the door burst open.
Matteo, his throat on fire from the soup, rushed in to tell Mitchel not to try it. He thought Raegan could not have realized she added too much white pepper. But after taking a big sip, it felt like more than just a little extra.
It was as if a whole bottle had been dumped in.
Matteo didn't expect to interrupt a passionate moment. Stunned, he opened his mouth but couldn't find the words, making only incoherent noises.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMitchel gave Matteo a cold look, quickly covering Raegan's messed-up hair with a jacket from beside the bed.
"Why are you still here?" Mitchel scowled at Matteo, who seemed unusually slow to react today.
Matteo was frozen in place, wanting to leave but hesitated. "Mr. Dixon, your neck..." he said, his voice shaking.
Raegan looked up and noticed Mitchel's neck was bright red, looking like he was having a severe allergic reaction. She gasped. "Do you have a pepper allergy?" Mitchel felt his own neck itch uncomfortably.
Matteo quickly added, "It's not just pepper. Mr. Dixon reacts badly to all types of peppercorns." He wouldn't have interrupted if there wasn't a risk
of a serious allergic reaction.
Seeing his neck turn red, Raegan felt a mix of helplessness and guilt and started to cry. "I had no idea... I added a lot of pepper..." Mitchel tried to calm her down, saying lightly, "It's alright. Don't worry about it." Luckily, they were at a hospital.
The doctor promptly started antihistamine treatment.
Two hours later, the rash on Mitchel's neck was much better.
The doctor advised, "Aren't you aware of your allergies? You need to remember what you can and cannot eat. Allergies can be deadly if not taken seriously." Raegan hung her head, filled with
immense guilt, truly unaware of this.
Had she known, she never would have played such a prank.
After the doctor left, Mitchel turned his gaze to Raegan, who was now looking down at her toes, a smile growing on his face. So, she knew she was to blame. He hadn't gone through all that for nothing.
Before Mitchel could say anything, Raegan offered a sincere apology, "I'm sorry." Mitchel's eyes sparkled with mischief as he drew out his words. "Come a bit closer. 1 didn't hear that." Raegan was at a loss for words. She moved closer and met his gaze. "I'm sorry. I did that on purpose..." Before she could finish, he easily pulled her onto the bed.
Mitchel examined her feet. There was no swelling, which was a good sign, showing there was no serious harm.
He gently pinched her cheek, signaling he didn't want her to feel bad, and shared, "I knew, and I went along on purpose." "What?" Raegan was startled and puzzled. "You knew it and you still went along?" Mitchel explained with sincerity, "If I hadn't played along with your prank, how would you have been content?" Raegan couldn't wrap her head around his reasoning.
Mitchel then pinched her waist playfully and inquired, "So, how do you plan to make up for the trouble you caused?"
