Having satisfied his thirst, Mitchel got up to leave.
Luis, considering Mitchel’s generous spending at the bar, offered a piece of advice despite everything.
“Mr. Dixon, when pursuing a woman, maintain a positive attitude and be thick-skinned.”
Luis had said his piece, indifferent to whether Mitchel grasped the full intent or not.
Departing the bar, Mitchel returned to the company and stayed overnight.
Since his divorce, he had rarely visited Serenity Villas.
The memories of Raegan there only fueled his resolve to win her back, yet he feared resorting to forceful methods, something he didn’t wish to do.

Eloise’s eyes brimmed with tears upon seeing him.
She had chased after Mitchel’s car for two miles the day before, to no avail.
On her very first blind date, how could she endure being treated like this?
Distraught, she sought Alexis’ support.
Alexis, having shown support for Eloise in front of Eloise’s father, brought Eloise straight to Mitchel for a proper explanation.
Mitchel’s frown deepened at their arrival, querying, “Who’s this?”
At his words, Eloise’s tears broke forth.
She was hurt that Mitchel, her blind date from just yesterday, failed to recognize her.
Alexis, having vowed to Eloise’s father to seek redress, now found himself in an awkward spot.
In a hushed tone, he chided, “This is Eloise. Remember her from yesterday?”
Only then did Mitchel recall his preoccupation with Raegan, having barely noticed Eloise.

Alexis then gently suggested to Eloise, “Why don’t you wait in the lounge? I’ll have my secretary whip up something tasty. I need to speak with Mitchel, and I’ll ensure he takes you out later to make amends, okay?”
Eloise, casting a glance at Mitchel, left with flushed cheeks and quiet sobs.
Once alone, Mitchel expressed his disinterest, “I can’t entertain her.
If you’re so fond of her, be my guest.”
Alexis, met with Mitchel’s obstinacy, challenged him, “You’re still hung up on your ex-wife, aren’t you?”
