Raegan didnt hear any footsteps following behind her, so she stopped.
She thought for a moment and then turned back.
Mitchel maintained a calm face and didnt stop Raegan from Leaving.
Instead, he just stood there and stared at her.
Mi Mr. Dixon Raegan stammered. Thinking Mitchel had come here to mend relationships with her, she felt the need to make things clear. In any case, she shouldnt entangle herself with him anymore.
Besides, if he had not fully recovered yet, she didnt want to carry the guilt if something happened to him.
Pausing for a bit, Raegan remarked firmly, I thought I made myself clear last time.
Mitchel replied calmly, Im here because I have something to attend to.

Raegan wasnt convinced. What could possibly trigger a patient who had not fully recovered yet would travel to the frigid Aurora?
Already anxious and troubled every single day because of her pregnancy and her mothers situation, Raegan really didnt want to add more to her worries. She felt like everything had piled up, weighing her down and suffocating her.
Deep down, she was mad at Mitchel, thinking he didnt know how to take care of himself. Before she could grasp the cause of her fury, she said impatiently, Mr. Dixon, dont you know that you are being annoying? Please stop doing things that only make you feel good about yourself.
Mitchels face turned pale upon hearing this. After a long silence, he said in a self-deprecating tone, Its not what you think it is.
Thinking that was an excuse he had fumbled out, Raegan raised her voice and questioned, How is it not? If you think your actions will move me, think again. I am so annoyed by you. Please, stop devaluing yourself.
Seeing her getting emotional, Mitchel pursed his lips and refrained from saying anymore to aggravate her further.
Raegan pivoted in a huff and was about to walk away when she heard an enthusiastic voice calling her.
Raegan! A youthful woman in a white fur coat ran up to Raegan, her face clean, brimming with vigor.
Raegan froze, staring at the woman and trying to recall if she knew her.

The woman approached Raegan enthusiastically and said, Raegan, dont you remember me? Im Eloise Benton.
Eloise Benton Raegan scanned her memory, trying to remember the name. Finally, it clicked. Eloise was once Mitchels blind date.
It had been a while, and Raegan found Eloises enthusiasm somewhat strange. She couldnt help asking, Eloise, what are you doing here?
Eloise seemed oblivious to the tense atmosphere and replied, I tagged along with Mitchel. The Dixon Group is overseeing a transportation project, and they need to do some on-site inspections.
Her voice trailed off, and her face suddenly turned red. She added hesitantly, I simply insisted on coming over against his wish.
Raegan knew the project Eloise mentioned.
The leaders of Aurora prioritized infrastructures development, aiming to shorten the time of travelling to the outside world. The transportation project first set eyes on commuting to Ambrosia.
