“You two go on. I hope you two assholes stay together forever.”
With that, Nicole turned to leave.
Whether or not Mitchel believed her words was irrelevant. She had little
expectation for a blind man to suddenly see the truth.
It was better if Lauren stuck to Mitchel, leaving Raegan in peace.
Before Nicole had taken more than a few steps, a chilling voice called out from
behind her.
“Miss Lawrence.” Mitchel’s icy words followed.
“I expect you to act appropriately around Raegan. If not, I'll have Jarrod spend
more time dealing with you Fury ignited within Nicole. Mitchel, so cunning, had
pinpointed her vulnerability.
No wonder Mitchel and Jarrod were friends. They were all bastards.
Her face contorted with anger, Nicole shot back, “You're threatening me!”
Mitchel's gaze deepened as he warned, “Be careful with your words.
Avoid saying things you shouldn't.”
Nicole seemed to sense something.
“Mr. Dixon, do you believe Raegan will forgive you one day?” she asked.
Observing Mitchel’s reaction confirmed Nicole's suspicion.
It appeared the descriptions of the heroes in the romantic novels she had read
were spot on. Mitchel was a wealthy, handsome man, brimming with confidence
in his love life.
Why pass up the chance to avenge Raegan? Nicole wouldn't let such a golden
opportunity slide.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Dixon. My lips are sealed, but...” Nicole hesitated, then added,
“Raegan’s resolve might be stronger than you anticipate once she’s made up her
mind.”
Mitchel’s hands balled into fists. He lingered for a moment before heading back
to Lauren's ward.
Upon seeing him, Lauren inquired anxiously, “Mitchel, did you manage to retrieve
the recorder?”
She had assumed Mitchel chased after Nicole to help her reclaim the voice
recorder.
In her view, despite everything, Mitchel still showed concerns for her.
After all, he hadn't punished her for tampering with Raegan’s pregnancy test
previously, right?
And now, battered by Raegan, Lauren was convinced Mitchel wouldn't blame
her.
However, her plans to be Mitchel's wife had to be delayed.
