Given Bryce’s weak academic foundation, increasing the study time was
essential to achieve the course's objectives.
Upon arriving at Nicole's residence, Raegan exited the car, thanked the driver,
and watched him drive away.
As Raegan turned to enter the community, the bright headlights of another
vehicle shone on her, causing discomfort to her eyes.
She shielded her eyes with her hand. Then, as the headlights dimmed, a figure
emerged from the vehicle and began approaching her, step by step.
When Raegan saw who was standing in front of her, her expression changed
abruptly. She chose to act like she hadn't noticed Mitchel and headed upstairs.
Mitchel blocked her path, his hands tucked casually into his pockets, unmoving
as if he were a statue.
“Who sent you back just now?” Mitchel asked with a gloomy expression.
“That's none of your business,” Raegan responded coldly.
Sensing her anger, Mitchel decided to change the subject, asking, “Why did you
move out?”
Raegan was momentarily at a loss for words when she heard his question.
However, she decided to sidestep him in an attempt to head upstairs.
But then, Mitchel grabbed her wrist, his tone unfriendly as he said, “We need to
talk.”
His touch reminded Raegan of the memories of the previous night, making her
stiffen.
She pulled her hand away and demanded, “Let go of me.”

Although Mitchel’s heart ached, he complied. However, he stepped in front of the
door and blocked her path.
He asked in a Low voice, “Raegan, can’t you at least tell me why you moved?”
“Why should I tell you?” Raegan asked, her confusion mingled with annoyance.
She couldn't fathom how he always managed to locate her, no matter where she
went.
She pulled out her phone and displayed a picture, her voice laced with sarcasm
as she said to Mitchel, “Mr. Dixon, are you familiar with this divorce certificate?”
Unexpectedly, Mitchel’s face darkened at the sight of the photo.
He never thought she would keep a photo of their divorce certificate on her
phone to wield against him at any moment.
It was a ruthless move that cut deep.
Mitchel felt heartbroken. He looked at her and said, “Raegan, don’t do this to
me.”
“The same to you.” Raegan’s use of the word only seemed to create a greater
distance between them.
“We are already divorced. Mr. Dixon, I don’t understand why you're still acting
this way. Is it for fun? Is the Dixon Group about to go bankrupt? Why are you so
idle?”
Mitchel was speechless with anger.
