Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

To Bite Off More Than One Can Chew It took a lot of courage for Raegan to
speak up.

During the past years when Lauren was with Mitchel, Raegan had hidden her
feelings and only admired Mitchel in secret.

Time had etched these habits deep into her soul, and old habits died hard.

And now she was trying to bite off more than she could chew.

Sure, she was aware she was naive, but she wanted nothing more but to best
Lauren.

The sense of helplessness she felt, knowing that Lauren was behind everything
yet being unable to make Lauren pay, gnawed at

her.

Lauren was an expert in pulling Mitchel's strings.

Why couldn't she do the same? Especially now, she had the upper hand.

She was, after all, carrying Mitchel's child.

But when Raegan finally spoke up, Mitchel met her words with a heavy silence.
Panicking, Raegan looked away, extricated herself from his arms, and added, “If
you don't want to talk about it, that's fine.”

Mitchel knitted his eyebrows together and pulled her back into his arms.

"What do you want to talk about then?” His words implied that he was intrigued
by the topic.

Raegan pursed her lips and said, "I know Lauren has helped you in the past.
But how long are you planning to return the favor? Is there an expiration date for
your gratitude, or is this going to go on for the

rest of your life?” If Mitchel intended to look after Lauren forever, she would give
up on him.

She was just too exhausted to go on this way.

Mitchel lowered his gaze and gently brushed her nose with his thumb.

"Why do you care about Lauren so much? Are you jealous?" Raegan gave a
straightforward nod, which took Mitchel by surprise

and made him smile.

With a pleased smile, he leaned down to find her lips and kissed her
passionately.

"You should know I have no feelings for her beyond gratitude.” However, Raegan
was dissatisfied with his reassurance.

Mitchel had said this before, but he always ended up choosing Lauren over her.
"Every time I have a conflict with her, you side with her.

Just because I don't complain doesn't mean it doesn't get to me.” She lifted her
eyes to meet his, and her thick eyelashes

seemed to graze his soul.

"I do mind, Mitchel.

I don't think anyone would want their husband to act that way toward another
woman." As they lay there face-to-face and their

gazes locked on each other, Mitchel was genuinely surprised by her candidness.
Moreover, an indescribable feeling of satisfaction rose from the bottom of his
heart. "I see. I'll be more mindful in the future,” Mitchel assured her. Raegan was
not expecting Mitchel to erase Lauren from his life altogether. But at least he was
willing to make a change. Maybe it was something Luciana had said that had lit a
fire under her and made her want to fight for her happiness. Even if she failed, at
least she had tried her best. "This your last chance,” Raegan stated firmly while
staring into Mitchel's eyes. Mitchel saw the resolution in Raegan's eyes, which
made him inexplicably nervous. Mitchel kissed her eyes and held her tightly in his
arms. "Raegan, I promise you, from now on, you'll be the only woman I keep
close to my heart." Upon hearing this, Raegan looked up to gauge his
expression.

God, this man was a work of art. His face and features were as flawless as a
sculpture, especially his piercing eyes. At this moment, Raegan saw her own
reflection in those charming eyes and felt a ripple of emotion wash over her.
Raegan withdrew her sight nervously, but then her eyes fell on Mitchel's throat.
He happened to swallow, and she seized the moment to plant a kiss there. For a
second, she felt him shudder. "What are you doing?" Mitchel grabbed Raegan’s
wrist and stopped her with his sharp gaze.

Raegan said nothing and just ran her tongue over the bite mark she had just left
on his neck.

She licked and sucked him, Just like what he had done earlier, which seemed to
unsettle him.

"You don't want to sleep tonight, huh?" Mitchel loosened his grip, then changed
his position to be on top of her.

"Keep your voice down.

My mom's a light sleeper.” It didn't take long before Raegan realized that teasing
a man, especially Mitchel, might not be a good

idea.

He explored each of her erogenous zones with agonizing slowness.

Raegan was on the brink of losing it.

Her stifled murmurs were on the edge of her lips, but she did not dare let them
escape.

Worried she was not enjoying the moment, Mitchel played with her lip using his
index finger and said in a raspy voice, "l was just

kidding just then.

My mom’s a heavy sleeper.” Still, Raegan tried her best not to make a sound.
They were not in their place, and she could not fully let her guard down to enjoy.
Under the muted lighting, she saw his tense face and a drop of sweat drip from
his chin.

He was just as torn as she was. The sensation was too inexplicable to put into
words. Once Mitchel had had a taste, it was hard for him to stop. At last, with
both of them drenched in sweat, Mitchel took her to the bathroom again. Under
the bathroom light, Raegan'’s legs looked red and swollen. Mitchel took her back
to the bed.

He applied some ointment to her bruises and then let her lie down on the bed.
Feeling sorry for her, he cautioned her in a hot and husky tone, "Don't try to turn
me on like that next time.

Your skin's too delicate for that.” Raegan was too tired to argue with him.
Moreover, her legs were so sore that she could not lift them at She rested her
head on his arm and stared blankly at the ceiling.

Finally, she broke the silence.

“You probably think I'm just targeting Lauren for no reason.

I get that you don't like it.

But the thing is, even if she's not directly responsible for my grandma's death,
she has something to do with it, at least.

1 can't just get over that." Mitchel silently listened to her words.

"Look, you know what matters to me.

So don't provoke me again with Lauren's matters, okay?” Mitchel did not keep
silent this time.

He rested his chin on her hair and swallowed hard his Adam's apple.

“You have my word.” The next morning, Mitchel headed to the company for some
business and instructed Tessie not to wake

Raegan up until nine o'clock.

However, Raegan got up before Tessie could wake her up.

After breakfast, Raegan bid farewell to Kyler and Luciana and had the driver take
her back to Serenity Villas.

In the afternoon, Raegan was wiped out from the previous night, so she decided
to take a nap.

By the time she woke up, night had already fallen.

Somehow, she missed Mitchel.

She reached for her phone to give him a ring but got no answer.

Thinking he was just swamped with work, she shrugged it off.

Dinner time rolled around, and she still had not heard from him.

Now a little anxious, she tried calling him again.

Still, his phone remained unreachable.

Meanwhile, the tension was rather intense in the CEO's office at the Dixon
Group.

It seemed that he was about to crush the report in his hand.

The report clearly stated that the similarities in the samples were strikingly low,
which indicated no biological relationship

between him and the baby.
