Raegan gazed at Henley earnestly and spoke with sincerity.
“I’m fully aware of what I had said. After all, your leg was injured because of me. It’s only right that I stay by your side to take care of you until you’re fully recovered.”
Upon hearing her words, a change came over Henley’s face. The sparkle in his eyes seemed to vanish.
Raegan was indeed guileless. How could she harbor any other thoughts?
Once settled on a plan for his ongoing treatment, Henley reached out to a renowned specialist in this field. He was preparing to undergo surgery in the coming days.
The police visited the hospital to record Henley’s statement. Henley recounted his reasons for being there that night as his concern for Raegan. He had arrived at Raegan’s place just in time to see Tessa abduct her. He followed them, biding his time to save Raegan.
The police verified his account against the surveillance footage. It all matched the timeline perfectly.
Meanwhile, Raegan was calculating the duration of Henley’s upcoming treatment. It was going to be a more prolonged affair than she had anticipated.
Considering the surgery schedule, she realized she’d need at least a month off work. Typically, her company wouldn’t permit such a Lengthy leave.
So, she contemplated resigning.

She felt compelled to take responsibility for Henley’s condition. Had it not been for his intervention, she would have been the one suffering a fall from a great height.
However, upon discussing the situation with her supervisor, she found support. Her supervisor agreed to hold her position during her absence. Moreover, her students reached out, promising to remain diligent and study hard while she was away.
Bryce, in particular, seemed transformed. He earnestly promised Raegan that he would make significant progress in her absence.
This assurance brought Raegan some comfort. Having tutored these kids for a long time, she was reluctant to leave them.
Before her departure, Raegan visited Kyler in the sanatorium. She didn’t reveal her plans to accompany Henley for his treatment abroad.
Instead, she mentioned that she was going overseas for further studies, not wanting to worry the old man.
Kyler was overjoyed to hear about her plans, lauding Raegan for her talents.
Later, Raegan went to see Nicole, who had been discharged from the hospital and was now engrossed in settling company matters.
Raegan remained unaware of the source of Nicole’s funds. The eighty-million-dollar loan had been paid, and Nicole managed to sell the batch of finished products to smaller firms at a reduced rate.

The ordeal had cost the Lawrence Group tens of millions, not to mention the losses in the stock market, amounting to hundreds of millions in total.
The Lawrence Group’s bankruptcy seemed inevitable.
Nicole was swamped with the company’s final Liquidation.
Raegan shared news of Henley’s abroad treatment with Nicole. Although Nicole was concerned for Raegan, she was deeply engrossed in her own troubles. In the end, she promised to visit Raegan once her affairs were in order.
As Raegan was about to leave, Nicole halted her with a sudden inquiry, “Have you heard anything about Mitchel lately?”
