The taxi driver frowned, thinking.
Raegan was stunned. Mitchel’s capacity for fabrication was unexpectedly impressive.
After consideration, the taxi driver eventually stepped out and passed the taxi to Matteo.
The taxi driver even imparted some wisdom to Mitchel. “Remember, a wife should be treasured, not upset. Got that?”
“I understand, sir.” Looking at Raegan, Mitchel added, “I’ll make sure to ‘treasure’ her properly.”
Raegan was at a loss for words since things happened so swiftly.

Raegan awkwardly looked away, criticizing, “Have you no dignity?”
