The familiar remarks made Raegan want to laugh. But she held back and listened quietly.
Mitchel stared at her intensely and confessed, “The child in Lauren’s belly is not mine.”
Raegan sneered, “Mitchel, am I that stupid in your eyes? If the child isn’t yours, why do you still keep her by your side?”
“Yes, it’s true that I took her out of the mental hospital. But I didn’t do it out of pity or sympathy. I have a reason for doing it,” Mitchel explained.
Mitchel paused and added, “One day, I will tell you everything. But for now, please just trust me. You will know when the right time comes.”
Unfortunately, Raegan was not convinced by his clumsy explanation.
She even wanted to laugh. She looked at him expressionlessly. It seemed she wasn’t even worthy of his decent excuse. Well, whatever.
When Mitchel noticed Raegan’s silence, he immediately panicked. He held her hand and said, “I will not divorce you. Please stop thinking about leaving me. Do you understand?”
In the past few days, he didn’t go home because he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to control his emotions. He had been spending the nights at the company.
He had sleepless nights, thinking about Raegan. He couldn’t accept that she wanted to leave him.
And the reason why he lost his mind that day was that she wanted to leave secretly.
Mitchel gave it careful thought. In the end, he decided to accept the child in Raegan’s belly. He couldn’t afford to lose her, so he could only accept everything of her.

So, he would accept Raegan’s child no matter what. He would sincerely comfort her and help her let go of her worries. He would make her confess the truth about the child one day.
However, anger surged in Raegan’s heart when she heard Mitchel’s words. She immediately exploded. “Mitchel, haven’t you been the one who lied to me all along?”
She thought this so-called contractual marriage was only his way of trapping her.
Mitchel said frankly, “I didn’t lie to you. I admit that I had selfish motives when I remarried you. But even if my grandfather wasn’t involved, I still wanted to remarry you. So, let’s just spend our days together. Don’t overthink things. No matter what, I won’t let you go.”
Raegan forced herself to be numb upon hearing his words.
She knew that if she got too emotional, Mitchel would lock her up again. And he would always keep a close watch on her.
She felt bitter in her heart. But she forced a smile and said in a low voice, “All right. Take me to see Nicole first.”
Mitchel was stunned by Raegan’s reaction. He looked into her eyes and asked again, “Raegan, what did you just say?”
