Before she could finish speaking, Nicole interrupted her by raising her hand.
“You don’t have to explain anything to me. I’m certain that he did something awful to you. You know I’m not that good at noticing red flags. If it weren’t for you, I’d have fallen prey to that bastard and it would be too late.”
Later, Nicole watched as Raegan picked on her food. She finally broke the silence.
“What are you going to do next?”
Raegan understood what Nicole meant. She stirred the bowl of creamy soup in front of her as she replied with a faint smile, “I’m planning to resign from the Dixon Group.”
“Are you sure about this? What are your plans for the future?”
Nicole asked worriedly, staring at Raegan’s pale face.

“My mind is already made up. Leaving is the best decision for me.
Actually, I plan to do some freelance design work upon resignation,”
Raegan said indifferently. She turned away slightly and her profile was delicate and beautiful.
Now that the only woman Mitchel had ever loved was back, she was nothing in his eyes anymore.
The last thing she wanted was to be the third wheel. Raegan thought she should be sensible and make room for Lauran as soon as possible.
Nicole was delighted that Raegan made this decision. After all, Mitchel was a complicated man. She was afraid that Raegan would get hurt if she kept this relationship with Mitchel.
“You should have realized it a long time ago. Why should you serve Mitchel Like that every day? You are smart and capable. You won various prizes with your works back in college. A brighter future awaits you once you leave the Dixon Group.”
In the past, when Raegan had a crush on Mitchel, there were many things that Nicole couldn’t say, fearing that those words would hurt Raegan. Now that Raegan’s eyes had opened and seen through the situation, Nicole couldn’t be happier for her.
“Have you heard the latest?” asked Nicole with her eyes shining.
“Henley is back in town! Remember how everyone in college always said that you two made a good pair?”
Raegan almost choked on the soup. She widened her eyes.
“Henley is back?”
“Yes, what rock do you live under? I thought you had followed him on Twitter. Henley Brooks, search him. He is the latest fast-rising personality in the investment circle.”
Raegan shook her head. After graduation, she gave Mitchel all her attention. She had lost all contact with her schoolmates, except Nicole.
“Honestly, I always thought that you and Henley would end up together.
You two looked like a good pair. And he was so good to you despite the two-year gap between you two. I was a little envious of you back then.”
“Oh, please. Henley was good to everyone back then. He never treated me special.”
