As the authorities began escorting the troublemaker to the station, their attention
drifted to Mitchell. The officer, uncertain, turned to Raegan.
“Are you acquainted with this man?”
Their conflicting answers slipped out in unison.
A shadow crossed Mitchell's features, his hand balling into a fist, knuckles
bleaching with tension.
He felt he was an idiot who came here to offer help to her.

Mitchel was frustrated. He already knew Raegan didn’t want to see him, but he
still chased after her.
And what did he get in return?
First, Raegan told Matteo straightforwardly not to call her Mrs. Dixon anymore.
Then, she refused Matteo’s offer to give her a ride and got into Henley’s car
instead.
And now, she denied that she knew him.
Did she really hate him that much?
The police officer looked at Raegan, then at Mitchel. He asked, “Do you know
each other or not?”
Mitchel was so angry that he wanted to give Raegan a piece of his mind now. But
he restrained himself.
His eyes turned dark. He tightly wrapped his arm around Raegan’s waist and
said through clenched teeth, “She’s my wife.”
Raegan was dumbfounded when she heard his words. She didn’t react for a
while.
When she came back to her senses, she tried to push him away. But he held her
even tighter. So, she had no choice but to ask in a low voice, “What nonsense
are you talking about?”
The police officer pondered for a few seconds. Then he asked Raegan, “Is this
man your husband?”
Raegan glared at Mitchel, thinking he must be out of his mind.
During their previous encounters, he had been indifferent to her. He was as
arrogant as a peacock.
How could he declare now that she was his wife?
She didn’t want to delay the police officer from working further, so she hurriedly
explained, “He is my ex-husband.”
Mitchel’s handsome face turned gloomy. But he still held back his temper and
said to the police officer, “It's okay, officer. I'll take care of the rest.”
The police officer hesitated for a moment. When Mitchel noticed this, he directly
told the police officer his ID number and said coldly, “If she goes missing, come
find me.”
What Mitchel did finally convinced the police officer, and he escorted the
troublemaker away.
