Mitchel grasped a man was supposed to hold tightly to the one he treasured with actions. Never should he release his hold on the one he cherished, for it would only invite regret.
Raegan felt overwhelmed by these sentiments. She didnt comprehend why he was suddenly pouring out his feelings to her, catching her off guard.
Swiftly, she pulled the blanket over her head, muttering, Im a bit tired. Lets discuss this another time.
Despite knowing she was trying to evade the conversation, Mitchel felt helpless. His gaze dimmed as he softly uttered, Get some good rest.
With that, he quietly closed the door behind him and departed.

Raegan lifted the blanket once she heard the door click shut, her gaze fixed on the stark white ceiling, lost in contemplation. She hadnt made up her mind about rekindling things with Mitchel.
Suddenly, a wave of fear surged within her, and she longed to flee.

Raegan recuperated just in time for her babies celebration.
Considering the imminent event, Erick contemplated involving Mitchel in the plan.
By then, when the times came, he would lead a team and break into Daveys villa, but he fretted over Raegans safety at the celebration, uncertain if Stefan could adequately protect her. Having Mitchel for extra security would undoubtedly be advantageous.
However, Raegan hesitated. Mitchels mobility issues could potentially complicate matters and raise Daveys suspicions.

Raegan, adorned in a resplendent red dress paired with a gray fur coat, exuded elegance and allure.
Davey, who hadnt made a public appearance for quite some time, made his entrance at the celebration.
In Auroras social hierarchy, invitations from influential families like the Cliffords and Maxwells were obligatory, with failure to attend considered a severance of ties.
Thus, Daveys arrival promptly thrust him into the spotlight.
Clad in an uncharacteristic cream-colored velvet suit, he exuded the facade of a scholar, though Raegan knew better than to be deceived by his scholarly facade. His true character often betrayed itself in unguarded moments.
For some inexplicable reason, Raegan always felt apprehensive in Daveys presence, especially since he tended to fixate his gaze on her upon arrival, lingering uncomfortably long.
Concealed within Raegans pearl earring, an earpiece relayed Ericks voice. They had already rendered all of Daveys security personnel and servants incapacitated within his villa.
