Raegan was momentarily speechless. Well, he put it on the speaker and she
could hear their conversation.
“I sent someone else in my place,” Mitchel clarified.
Raegan remained silent, not wanting to be a burden to him.
“I can get there on my own. You don’t need to drive me there,” she offered.
Furrowing his brows, Mitchel retorted, “Oh? How? By taking the train?
You're pregnant. What if something happens to you?”
His words left her at a loss for a response.
For a fleeting second, Raegan sensed genuine concern for their baby from him.
But how could it be?
She knew he had no affection for their baby.
An uneasy silence filled the car until Mitchel finally said, “I told you I'd accompany

She chose to say nothing, merely leaning back into her seat and shutting her

Taking a quick glance at her, Mitchel adjusted the car settings to comfortable

The car smoothly continued its journey.
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lauren sipped on a bowl of nutritious soup with glee.
Her scraped hands and knees were a small price to pay for her trick of
summoning Mitchel over and making that bitch, Raegan, miserable.
She had heard that Mitchel planned to go with Raegan to pay tribute to the
latter's grandmother.
Lauren snorted. How could she just watch them together without doing anything?
She would never allow Raegan’s wishes to be fulfilled. So, her so- called
accident came.
At this moment, Jocelyn, who stood by the door, said, “Miss, we have a visitor.”
Lauren immediately set aside the bowl she was holding and reclined on the bed,
feigning illness.
As Kyle, Mitchel's assistant, stepped into the room, Jocelyn cast a puzzled
glance around and inquired, “Kyle, where’s Mr. Dixon?”
