Raegan was so startled that she struggled hard.
“Hector, put me down.”
“You are injured. How can I let you walk? Let me take you to the car first.”
Hector didn’t allow Raegan to refuse. He carried her into the car, took a clean suit
from the back seat, and put it on her.
Raegan smelled a fresh, minty fragrance on his clothes. It was a kind of scent
that could calm people down.
She pursed her lips and thanked him. Hector didn't say anything. He only nodded
slightly in response.
Raegan also smelled a faint smell of alcohol in the car. Obviously, Hector had just
drunk.
At this moment, Raegan’s phone vibrated.
It was a message from Nicole, asking if she was home.
Raegan didn’t want Nicole to worry about her, so she replied with a yes.
Then, Nicole forwarded Raegan a short video. When Raegan clicked it, it showed
Mitchel being teased to kiss Lauren after they left.
It was a short video. It stopped abruptly when Mitchel’s and Lauren’s faces were
very close.

Then Nicole sent another message.
“Raegan, did you lie to me when you said you two have a good relationship? You
are his legitimate wife. How can he do this?”
Raegan looked at the cover of the video. A handsome man and a beautiful
woman stood together. They looked like a perfect match.
Suddenly, a teardrop fell on the screen of her phone.
She reached out and wiped it. But the next drop fell again.
Soon, the phone's screen was covered in tears.
Raegan felt a sharp pain in her heart. It was as if a knife was cutting it into
pieces.
How could she be so naive? She was really stupid.
Every time she told herself to stop loving Mitchel, she always softened just
because of the little bits of good he did.
Then, she would once again make herself a joke.
She swore she would never believe his words again. Never.
At this moment, a handkerchief appeared in front of Raegan. Hector gave it to
her without saying anything.
