Meanwhile, Stefan remainedposed and level-headed.


    Despite having questions, he knew better than to put Raegan in a predicament.


    “Shall we go now?” Stefan suggested to Raegan, who nodded in response.


    Stefan stood up.


    With that, he and Raegan left the table without so much as a nce at Mitchel.


    Mitchel’s expression darkened.


    Raegan acted like it was as if he were invisible to her.This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    Mitchel couldn’t bear it any longer.


    He loosened the button on his cor, strode forward, grabbed Raegan’s wrist from behind, and pulled her into his arms.


    Raegan struggled, but her efforts were in vain.


    “If you keep resisting me, I won’t hesitate to remind you of that ki*s.


    And this time, I won’t be lenient with you,” Mitchel warned sternly in a low voice.


    Raegan thought Mitchel was capable of such actions, so she stopped resisting.


    Stefan nced back at their interlocked hands and inquired, “Raegan?”


    Mitchel’s eyes had the ferocity of a wild animal on the verge of attack.


    Raegan worried that Stefan and Mitchel might sh.


    Stefan, being more delicate, would be no match for Mitchel’s brute strength and would surely get hurt.


    “Stefan, go ahead to the car and wait for me.


    I need to have a word with him,” Raegan responded.


    Stefan looked concerned and questioned, “Are you sure you can handle it?”


    At Stefan’s words, Mitchel tightened his grip on Raegan’s wrist, looking like he mightsh out at Stefan any moment.


    Raegan swiftly moved between them, shielding Stefan.


    This gesture seemed to pierce Mitchel’s heart, leaving him feeling choked up.


    Raegan reassured Stefan, “Don’t worry.


    I’lle to youter.


    ”


    Interpreting Mitchel’s look, Stefan trusted Mitchel wouldn’t harm Raegan.


    Convinced she could manage, he nodded and left.


    Once Stefan walked away, Raegan, annoyed, shook her hand.


    “Can you let go of me?”


    Mitchel only slightly eased his hold but didn’t release her.


    He questioned, “Is this what you call being busy? Seeing another man?”


    His tone was unmistakably jealous.


    Had Erick not informed her of Mitchel’s madness for his first love, Raegan might have thought Mitchel’s jealousy was due to his feelings for her.


    With a smile, she chose not to rify, instead asking, “Mr.


    Dixon, are you jealous?”


    Mitchel’s Lips thinned as he prepared to speak, but Raegan cut in, “Feeling jealous? Feel free to date other women.


    It doesn’t bother me.


    ”


    Raegan wasn’t just okay with it.


    She actually weed the idea.


    That way, she could use his unfaithfulness as leverage in their divorce proceedings.


    It would hasten her escape from this ufortable marriage.


    Mitchel’s eyes turned stormy.


    Clenching his teeth, he dered, “There’s no other woman for me but you!”
