y Chapter 401 Because I Wanted to See You i \ Suddenly, loud horn sounds echoed around Raegan and Stefan.
Raegan lifted her head to see a cu.
speeding directly toward them.
Stefan, acting on instinct, wrapped his arms around Raegan and retreated.
Yet, the car was not heading for them.
It aimed for Stefan's black limousine.
"Boom!" The collision was shockingly forceful.
Stefan's limousine's nose crumpled, while the car took the hit only had minor damage, mostly bumper damage, all part of Matteo's precise calculation. His hands were drenched in sweat from the tension.
Matteo had known about Mitchel's | insanity when overwhelmed by jealousy and would never let Mitchel do the hitting. He had better control of | speed and strength when hitting Stefan's car under Mitchel's directive.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHad it been Mitchel behind the wheel, Stefan's black limousine might have been totally wrecked.
Raegan, already battling a headache, felt her strength drain from the shock and she slumped into Stefan's embrace.
The door of the car which took the hit swung open. Shiny leather shoes hit the ground.
Mitchel, with one hand in his pocket, moved toward Stefan and Raegan with deliberate steps. His dark suit radiated a serious, deep-black aura that didn't mask his natural authority.
Stefan was visibly annoyed. No man
could maintain his cool in this situation and Stefan was no exception.
"what's this about, Mr. Dixon?" he inquired, voice low and eyes slightly squinted, maintaining politeness yet with a firm tone.
Mitchel's eyes scrutinized Stefan's protective embrace of Raegan, his look icy and mysterious, his lips quivering slightly. "This was merely an accidental collision." Stefan's pupils deepened, grasping Mitchel's underlying threats. Just a car collision today, what about tomorrow? A person? Stefan and Mitchel stood in a tense silence, their eyes locked in a fierce confrontation, neither yielding.
Raegan regained some strength and blinked, only to straighten up abruptly at the sight of Mitchel, her expression stern. "Mitchel, have you lost your
senses? What did you just do? Why are , you here?" She had thought it was a mere illusion at first. After all, Mitchel, who was | supposed to be in the hospital for rest, stood before her.
Mitchel's heart seemed to pause at Raegan's questioning. His lips pale and slightly apart, he said softly, "Because I wanted to see you." Raegan was at a loss for words. She paused for a second, slowly processing his words. In full view of everyone, he confessed his desire to see her. She questioned what she had just heard.
Could these really be the words of the usually calm, reserved man? Yet, the memory of Mitchel's earlier threat angered Raegan. "Don't think I didn't hear you threatening Stefan!" Mitchel felt a jolt seeing Raegan defend
Stefan, his dark eyes growing colder ! Just when Raegan anticipated another outburst, Mitchel exhaled quietly, seemingly holding back strong | emotions, and then rasped, "Sorry, I wasn't clear." \ Raegan was dumbfounded. What did she just hear? An apology from Mitchel? Mitchel's brow creased slightly as he added, "I had no intention of threatening him." Raegan frowned, rendered speechless.
Stefan shared the same sentiment.
Stefan's perception of Mitchel shifted drastically. How could someone's demeanor change sO quickly? Mitchel was as unpredictable as anyone could be.
Then, Matteo rushed over, apologizing to Stefan, "Please forgive me, 1 forgot to
brake. I'll cover all repairs ) Mitchel, with his handsome features showing a trace of pallor, commanded in a deep voice, "Matteo, ensure Mr Clifford gets a thorough check-up to see if he's physically hurt and have | him select a new car from the dealership." Mitchel sophisticatedly camouflaged his feelings and echoed Matteo, showcasing his shrew side.
Raegan was frustrated. Mitchel simply whitewashed himself by echoing Matteo's words.
Matteo had two extra vehicles over, informing Stefan, "Mr. Clifford, please let us handle the vehicle situation." stefan gazed at Raegan, inquiring, "Would you like to join me?" Before Raegan could respond, Mitchel cut in, "She doesn't need to go out of
her way. I'll send her home Annoyed, Raegan responde d, "I'm not on your way." | | Stefan was about to respond when Matteo reassured them, "No concerns, | Mr. Clifford. We have enough vehicles Miss Foster will be safely escorted home." Knowing Stefan had important documents and money in his car that required his attention, Raegan stated, "Go ahead, Stefan. I'll manage.’ Though hesitant, Stefan gave in since he had confidential family documents in his car that needed his care. And with Mitchel present, Raegan seemed safe. He gave a nod, saying, "Let me know once you're home." Feeling responsible for the inconvenience to Stefan, Raegan agreed quietly.

Stefan diverted his gaze first, offering Raegan a soft look before departing.
Watching Raegan's eyes track Stefan, Mitchel felt his heart feeling torn, his expression growing pained.
Raegan approached the vehicle Matteo had arranged and climbed in, not waiting for Mitchel. "Head to West Lake villa," she directed the driver.
The driver hesitated, noticing Mitchel hadn't entered yet.
Raegan's expression hardened, , questioning whether Matteo had arranged her transport.
While she contemplated, the driver's | door opened, and the driver tactfully left, making room for Mitchel.
| Raegan's expression turned cold.
"Mitchel, didn't you vow not to bother me anymore?" Mitchel, newly seated, experienced a painful twist in his heart hearing her words. His eyes lost some of their brightness. Her desire to avoid him was clear in her actions and words.
Yet...
"But you visited the hospital today. It seemed you were concerned about me," Mitchel whispered. His excitement had peaked when he spotted Raegan on the security footage, driving him to see her before he was fully healed.
Raegan now wished she hadn't visited If she'd known he was well, she wouldn't have gone. She regretted acting on a fleeting impulse, providing | him with an excuse to pester her "Mitchel, I went to the hospital | because I felt it was necessary. You fainted at my place, and I wanted to avoid any complications, so 1 checked on you." Mitchel's eyes subtly shifted, a wave of pain washing over him. He longed to probe whether her visit indicated she still cared for him, even in the slightest.
Raegan faced him, her smile lacking warmth. "Do you have any more questions?" Mitchel's complexion turned noticeably paler. He couldn't handle another blow. Despite being disheartened, he attempted a smile,
SE shifting the conversation | apologize for your lack of transportation Allow me to drive you today. How's that? { "No!" Raegan rejected instantly, her face stern. "You leave, Or I do."
