Raegan’s heart raced when she heard Mitchell’s words.
Mitchel’s phone slipped from her grasp, clattering to the floor.
Mitchel entered, his bare feet silent. His long legs were strong, his upper body sculpted with defined muscles.
He stooped to retrieve the phone, offering it to Raegan. “Try 822822,” he suggested.
Raegan was taken aback. August 22nd. It was the date they first received their marriage certificate.
She stood frozen, the phone burning in her hand, especially with the text glaring from the screen.
Mitchel read her message aloud. “Mr. Hector Dixon, I’m trapped by Mitchel.
Can you help me out? Sent by Raegan Hayes.”

Mitchel’s voice was icy. “Seeking help from my uncle?”
His exterior was calm, but inside, turmoil raged. Sure enough, Raegan still wanted to run away. This irked Mitchel increasingly.
Mitchel’s eyes narrowed. He grasped her chin and pressed her against the wall, his tone fierce. “Do you enjoy flirting with the men around me? How do you plan to repay Hector if he helps you out?”
Raegan paled, her restraint gone. “You can’t imprison me like this. Though we’re a couple, you have no right to confine me.”
At her words, Mitchel’s expression grew colder.
He scoffed. “Is that your argument, Raegan? That I can’t do that?”

Holding her close, his composure slipped. “Then, shouldn’t we consider starting a family after being married for so long?”
Raegan was speechless, shocked by his words.
Memories of their lost child haunted her, a painful thorn in her heart, continually reviving past anguish.
Raegan’s voice was heavy with bitterness. “Don’t even dream about it!”
The pain of the loss of her first child was too much to bear again. She was afraid of losing her child again because of those crazy women around Mitchel.
With resolve, she declared, “I will never have a child with you.”
She couldn’t bring herself to the possibility of losing her child again.
This was her baby!
But Mitchel replied sternly, “That’s not for you to decide.”
His expression dark, he took a tie from the dresser and restrained her hands to the towel rack.
