Seeing the anxiety in Mitchel’s eyes, Raegan’s heart skipped a beat.
Understanding it wasn’t the time to provoke Mitchel, she reluctantly went against her desires and said, “Of course, I won’t leave you.”
She lifted her delicate face and added softly, “But Mitchel, you must stop locking me up. I can’t bear feeling like a prisoner at home.”
Mitchel scrutinized Raegan’s face with apparent indifference as if attempting to decipher the truth behind her words.
Consumed by sobs, Raegan pleaded with a voice laden with sorrow, “Nicole is gone, and my heart is shattered. How can you continue to confine me all day long? Do my feelings mean nothing to you?”
“Stop crying.” Mitchel extended his hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. Eventually, he relented, saying, “You can go out, but the bodyguards must accompany you. And don’t stay out for too long, understood?”
Upon hearing this, Raegan’s face turned pale. This meant she would be under Mitchel’s watchful eye around the clock.
Nevertheless, Raegan considered it a welcome change from being grounded in the house.
Mitchel left after sending Raegan back to Serenity Villas. It was evident to her where he was headed.
Initially, Raegan thought she wouldn’t care anymore, but knowing Mitchel was visiting Lauren made her feel upset. She despised both Lauren and Mitchel.
Thinking about her escape plan, Raegan made a conscious effort to behave exceptionally well. Even though Mitchel granted her permission to leave the villa, she refrained from stepping outside for the past two days.
Mitchel did not visit during this time, leaving Raegan uncertain of his whereabouts. She didn’t know whether he was with Lauren or busy with other matters.
The vigilant bodyguards diligently reported her every move to Mitchel.

On the third day, Raegan informed the bodyguards of an errand she needed to run. Her destination was a studio where she and Nicole had previously taken photos together before Nicole’s demise.
Raegan planned to visit the studio to retrieve the photos and then make her getaway. Hector had arranged everything for her.
This time, Raegan aimed to sever all ties with Mitchel.
Arriving at the studio, Raegan walked in while the bodyguards waited in the car.
Raegan awaited the photos in the VIP area on the second floor.
According to the plan, she would wet her clothes and then buy a new outfit from the studio.
The shop assistant pointed at the dressing room at the end of the corridor and said, “There you go.”
As Raegan passed the stairwell, she spotted someone ascending the stairs. Upon closer inspection, she saw that it was Mitchel.
In a hurry, Raegan rushed into the nearest dressing room, unaware of the “Exclusive” sign on the door.
Within the confines of the room, fear consumed Raegan. She wondered why Mitchel was here. Did he discover her plan and come to apprehend her?
