With resolve, Raegan unscrewed the cap, tilting her head back to drink without
her lips grazing the bottle.
She dared only a few sips from the half-full bottle.
No sooner had Raegan set the bottle down than she noticed Mitchel, who
returned and stood before her, eyes narrowed and arms folded.
His expression was like she was a pervert for taking the mineral water he'd been
sipping.
A sudden coughing fit overtook Raegan, her cheeks flushing with red.
Mitchel extended a hand, prompting Raegan to clutch the bottle defensively to
her chest, hastily asserting, “I'll pay you back once we're off this mountain.”

Mitchel’s outstretched hand paused midair, and in a frosty tone, he replied, “No
need.”
His darkening expression led Raegan to surmise he desired no further dealings
with her.
The sentiment was mutual. Besides, to a CEO, one bottle of water was trivial.
Mitchel’'s gaze darkened as he watched Raegan cautiously stow away half a
bottle of water in her bag.
The tension in the air was palpable when Bryce and Eloise approached.
Bryce's disheveled blue hair made him look particularly ghastly.
Upon seeing Mitchel, Bryce pushed Eloise toward Mitchel with a sense of
urgency, exclaiming, “Mitchel, you are the one who is supposed to look after her.”
If it weren't for Eloise who had clung to his arm and dragged him along, Bryce
would have ascended earlier.
Eloise was disheartened. Had she known how exhausting the day would be, she
would never have accompanied Mitchel here to take a trek.
Clinging to Mitchel's arm, Eloise pleaded in a sweet tone, “Mitchel, I'm tired. Can
you escort me back?”
Mitchel gave her a brief glance and offered, “I'll arrange a ride for you.”
Eloise’s expression soured instantly, interpreting his words as an intention to
send her back alone.
