In the end, Mitchel couldn’t even bring himself to sip the soup she had prepared.
She had spent time and effort making that nutritional soup.
Yet, he preferred the soup made by a nurse over hers.
Katie directed all her anger toward Raegan who had miraculously returned.
What appeal did a widow like Raegan, who had a child with another man, hold? Why couldn’t Mitchel shake Raegan off? To Katie, Raegan was just pretty with tricks to seduce men.
Katie’s hands were balled into fists, her head bowed.
Her sorrow was evident to anyone looking.
But what they couldn’t see was how her heart was twisted with hatred at the moment.
Mitchel, with a face showing no emotion, said, “Had I known your true feelings earlier, our families would never have entered into this partnership.
”
Katie’s face stiffened for a moment, and with tears streaming down her face, she replied, “Are you joking? Isn’t the deep bond between our families the foundation of our partnership?”
She had always believed their families’ coboration was a sign of Mitchel’s willingness to meet halfway.
This very coboration was what made her hold on silently for five years, hoping for him.
Mitchel was losing his patience in front of the weeping Katie.
His patience was reserved solely for matters concerning Raegan.
ncing up, Mitchel looked at Katie expressionlessly and said with a chill in his voice, “Katie, working with your family or another capablepany makes no difference to the Dixon Group.
Your family doesn’t get any special treatment.
In other words, the job could be yours or someone else’s.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.
Got it?”
His words, sharp and unforgiving, felt like a p to Katie’s face.
However, his harshness wasn’t due to disdain or anything personal.
He simply had always been detached when it came to women, with Raegan being the only exception.
No other woman could stirred his feelings.
Without paying attention to Katie’s reaction, Mitchel continued in a firm tone, “Clearly, you’re not fit to be the vice president of the Dixon Group anymore.
Get the handoverpleted within a week.
You’re to resign.
”
Katie felt as if the world around her had gone dark, her mind aplete nk.
In an instant, it was as though she had lost everything.
Her hopes, her dreams, and her enduring love were all shattered by this man without mercy.
Frozen, she shook her head and shed her tears.
“Mitchel, I can’t believe this! How can you be so heartless toward me? I’ve been with you for five years, right by your side.
Don’t I deserve an exnation?”
“Have we ever truly been together?” Mitchel’s words caused Katie’s face to lose all color.
“Simply because you visit me with my mom, do office work, and share a car with me for business activities doesn’t mean we’re close.
If that were the case, I’d owe Matteo an exnation since he’s been by my side for a decade, right?”
His reasoning immediately shattered Katie’s illusions.
Indeed, it was all in her head.
In Mitchel’s view, Katie was merely an assistant stuck to him amid business activities.
Yet, Katie had fooled herself into thinking she was vital to him.
Her obsession with this notion grew.
She believed she was indispensable to him.
But in reality, she had never been anything special to him.

ncing at his watch, Mitchel worried that Raegan might get the wrong idea if Katie lingered any longer.
He had no desire to continue their conversation.
With a cold tone, he said, “You may leave now.
”
The self-esteem Katie had clung to for so long felt like it was being crushed.
Suddenly, her face went white, and she felt like she couldn’t breathe.
Gripping the thermos tightly, Katie bolted from Mitchel’s ward, tears streaming down her face as she ran, nearly colliding with Raegan, who was carrying soup.
Raegan managed to avoid Katie just in time, but the soup spilled on the floor, scalding her feet.
“Are you blind?” Katie snapped at Raegan, her eyes red and teary.
She then stormed off, only to be stopped in her tracks by Raegan.
Facing Katie without a hint of fear, Raegan demanded, “Say you’re sorry.
”
Despite being the one at fault for the confrontation, Katie refused to apologize to Raegan who was under the disguise of the medical attire.
