She questioned Mitchel hysterically, “How can you be so cold-blooded and ruthless? It was a piece of life! It was my baby!”
Mitchel blanched, gripping Raegan tightly and murmuring, “I did nothing.”
Confused, Raegan asked, “What do you mean?”
Just then, a knock resounded at the door.
“Time to change the IV for Bed No. 34,” announced the head nurse, entering with a medical cart. She paused, taken aback by the scene before her.
Rushing over, she scolded Mitchel, “What’s happening here? The patient is in a fragile condition. How could you agitate her? You might look refined, but your actions are barbaric. If this continues, I’ll call the authorities.”
Upon uttering those words, the head nurse felt a twinge of apprehension. Mitchel’s imposing demeanor suggested he _ held considerable sway.

Still, how could he intervene in the medical treatment, especially one as vulnerable as Raegan right now? It wasn’t hard to surmise that Mitchel might have a volatile temperament behind closed doors.
Raegan seemed to be the same age as her daughter, and this thought spurred the head nurse to overcome her initial hesitation. Steeling herself, she continued, “I suggest you leave now, sir. Your stay could negatively affect the patient’s emotional state.”
Mitchel’s face paled, his jaw clenched. Clearly, the nurse’s audacity had pissed him off.

Exhaling in relief, the head nurse attended to the wound on Raegan’s hand.
After some hesitation, Raegan inquired, “Excuse me, may I know about my baby…”
Concentrating on disinfecting Raegan’s wound, the head nurse replied, “Don’t worry. You need additional nourishment. The baby’s growth is a bit behind schedule, so the doctor has ordered a_ special nutritional supplement for you.”
Seizing the nurse’s arm, Raegan questioned eagerly, “Does this mean my baby is still alive?”
The nurse gave her an odd look and replied, “Absolutely.”
For a moment, Raegan was in disbelief, gazing at the nurse in astonishment.
The head nurse went on, “Your husband is really something. The younger nurses were singing his praises this morning, talking about how good-looking and attentive he is to you. I never thought he’d act like this toward you!”
Embarrassed, Raegan clarified, “He’s not to blame. I got so emotional that I yanked the IV out myself.”
The head nurse’s eyes widened.
“So, he didn’t do it?”
Raegan shook her head.
Grinning sheepishly, the head nurse remarked, “Seems like I misjudged him. He has been by your side the entire night.”
