Raegan, her cheeks still warm, nudged him away a bit. “We haven’t sorted out the thing with Katie yet…”
The thought of Katie falsely claiming to be pregnant with Mitchel’s child troubled Raegan. Being fond of someone involved paying attention to their interactions with the opposite gender.
Mitchel’s detest for Katie reached its climax.
He moved closer, holding Raegan’s waist tightly, his voice rough.
“You’re aroused. Sure you don’t want this?”
Raegan was left without words. She turned red and felt completely overwhelmed.
Mitchel looked at her intensely and ki*sed her with deep passion.
The following day, at a senior meeting within the Dixon Group, Mitchel was speaking when the conference room door swung open.
Henley came in, a man who wasn’t qualified to attend this meeting, making his entrance quite shocking.
Mitchel shot Henley a frosty look.
Henley slammed a financial report on the table, outlining the losses the Dixon Group faced due to Mitchel’s solo decision to back out of the deal with the Glyn Group on the Eastern Garden project.
“Care to explain this, Mr. Dixon?” Henley smirked.
Mitchel replied icily, “Explain what?”
“Word has it that you ended the deal with the Glyn Group over a woman. Is that the case?” Henley crossed his arms.
This question caused a stir in the room, sparking an immediate commotion. The idea of a company’s leader making decisions based on a woman’s involvement seemed like madness to them.

Mitchel glanced at Henley. “Got any proof?”
Henley clapped his hands, and Katie walked in with reddened eyes, her back deliberately backward to showcase her Less than pronounced baby bump.
“Mitchel, are you really going to ruthlessly abandon the Glyn family just for that woman? I’m pregnant with your baby. And think about all the great work we’ve done together. Can you really throw all that away?” Katie promptly dropped the bomb.
The room buzzed with shock and whispers. Katie, the former vice president, announced she was carrying Mitchel’s baby. Such a revelation went beyond their wildest imagination.
Mitchel realized that Katie was in cahoots with Henley.
It looked like Katie had thought through the fallout of bringing this to light.
Mitchel responded icily, “Your child isn’t mine.”
“Mitchel, how can you be so cold…” Katie, pretending to be deeply hurt, covered her face and wept.
Katie, having treaded carefully to build a gentle and decent persona, displaying such fragility now, seemed quite the act.
