In an instant, the images suddenly overlapped.
Mitchel swallowed hard as past memories flashed through his mind.
Just like those days five years past, Mitchel and Raegan’s dynamic mirrored that last rendezvous. One yearned for a divorce while the other clung to the marriage.
At that precise moment, a waiter strolled past, balancing a tray of dishes in hand.
Mitchel swiftly extended his arm, fearing the waiter might accidentally collide with Raegan.
But Raegan, on pure instinct, evaded his grasp, stepping back abruptly. Her slender waist met the table’s corner, drawing a furrowed brow and a muffled groan from her.
Mitchel’s breath hitched, his hand suspended in the air. Withdrawing his hand, he concealed the ache in his heart and inquired, “Is your aversion for me that intense?”
Her disdain for him ran so deep that she’d rather hurt herself than let him touch her.
Mitchel’s attractive eyes reddened slightly, his wounded expression holding a strangely captivating allure.
Raegan lifted her eyes, a sharp edge in her words. “Certainly, Mr. Dixon! My loathing against you surpasses your wildest imagination.”
Coupled with the disdain in her gaze, Raegan’s words were like an unforgiving sword mercilessly piercing Mitchel.

Emotions be damned. Raegan disregarded his feelings and spoke up.
“Since you have nothing of substance to contribute, kindly step aside.
I want to go.”
Mitchel’s gaze darkened as he stood his ground, a formidable mountain barring her path.
“Mr. Dixon?” Raegan exclaimed annoyingly.
“Why?” Mitchel’s voice carried an enduring chill.
“What?” Raegan inquired.
“Why harbor such an intense hatred toward me?” Mitchel’s countenance turned icy as he meticulously recollected. Since Raegan’s return, their encounters had been fleeting, happening only two or three times.
Raegan possessed no recollection of him due to the car incident.

Hence, Mitchel couldn’t fathom the depth of her loathing. For a moment, a peculiar notion crept in. He wondered if Raegan feigned amnesia to evade him.
Raegan perceived Mitchel’s thought process as a deviation from the norm. She articulated, “I detest being coerced against my will. And it’s not just because of that. My disdain for you began from the very first moment we crossed paths.”
Raegan assumed her memory loss played a role. Moreover, her repulsion and instinctive resistance toward Mitchel remained steadfast.
Erick had provided scant details regarding events preceding her amnesia. Raegan held a vague awareness of the turbulent life she once led, with much suffering inflicted by Mitchel.
