Matteo didn’t want to leave. Watching Mitchel lean on the doorframe, his heart ached.
For fear of exposing Mitchel’s condition, all the staff at Serenity Villas had been sent away.
In the quiet, dark house, not a single light was on. Mitchel was alone, a thought that deeply saddened anyone who knew the truth. Who would have guessed that a CEO, flourishing and worth trillions, could be living in such despair?
Matteo couldn’t grasp why Mitchel, clearly more capable than Alexis and Henley, remained so guarded.
Yet, from what Matteo knew about Mitchel, Mitchel was likely gearing up for something big. All Matteo could do was help and follow along.
With tears in his voice, Matteo pleaded, “Mr. Dixon, please let me stay here to take care of you.”
Under the moonlight, Mitchel’s pale face and eyes seemed to cast a cold glow. “You need to watch those people and find out what they’re plotting!”
After Mitchel kicked Alexis and his supporters out of the company, there was no way Alexis would just give up like that.

As things heated up, Alexis became bolder, even daring to have people follow Mitchel.
And Henley, even after his demotion, still clung onto the company.
The two of them must be plotting something, waiting for the right moment to act. Mitchel knew he couldn’t afford to let his guard down.
Apart from the threats posed by Alexis and Henley, someone even more dangerous and terrifying went after Raegan’s Life.
Mitchel planned to deal with them by drawing all the attention to himself, a move that would undoubtedly make those around him become susceptible. So, time was critical. He needed to distance himself from Raegan as much as possible to keep her safe.
Looking out into the night, Mitchel’s determination was evident in his deep eyes. No matter the strength of the enemies, he was resolved to eliminate anyone who posed a threat to Raegan. Even if it meant facing hell alongside them, he was prepared.
After smoking a cigarette, Mitchel went back to the empty bed. He lay down without bothering to cover himself.
Each time he shut his eyes, Raegan’s words of giving up on him echoed in his mind. With each repetition, the crack in his heart widened, causing him excruciating pain.
“Mr. Dixon.” These two words seemed to carve a hollow in his heart.
He had no choice but to bear the pain alone.
At West Lake Villa.
Erick stood at the entrance, his suit hung over one arm, ready to leave. He hadn’t seen Raegan come back yet and was starting to worry.
He decided to go out and wait for her.
But just as he reached the entrance, Raegan appeared.
“You’re back?” Erick gave Raegan a casual look. Although Raegan had straightened up after stepping out of the car, Erick couldn’t help but notice the torn corner of her sweater and the slight bruise on her jawline.
In a flash, his calm demeanor crumbled. “Who did this? Tell me!”
