She forced a bitter smile, trying to convince herself that she was overthinking things.
How could Mitchel feel hurt by her words? There should be no one but Lauren who could cause him sorrow.

Just as she was about to dial Luis’ number, a hand patted on her shoulder.
“Raegan, what brings you here?”
Henley was surprised to see her at the hospital.
“I…” Raegan was about to respond when she noticed a needle in Henley’s arm, suggesting he had just finished an IV treatment.
Her empathy for him welled up, and she asked, “Are you feeling better now?”
Henley lowered his hand to hide the wound, then replied gently, “I’m okay.”
Recalling the awkward moments earlier regarding the phone call, Raegan apologized embarrassedly, “Henley, I’m sorry about the call.”
Henley’s eyes dimmed briefly but quickly recovered, saying, “There is no need to apologize, Raegan. You don’t owe me an apology.”
Looking at Raegan’s exhausted face and the dark circles under her eyes, Henley continued, “Why do you look so pale? It’s very late.
Why don’t you go home and rest? What are you doing here at the hospital?”
Just as Raegan was about to reply, a figure rushed over, creating a barrier between her and Henley.
“Raegan?” Luis didn’t expect to see Raegan at the hospital at this moment.
“You’re here! Come with me.”
