Mitchel grasped a man was supposed to hold tightly to the one he treasured with actions.


    Never should he release his hold on the one he cherished, for it would only invite regret.


    Raegan felt overwhelmed by these sentiments.


    She didn’tprehend why he was suddenly pouring out his feelings to her, catching her off guard.


    Swiftly, she pulled the nket over her head, muttering, “I’m a bit tired.


    Let’s discuss this another time.


    ”


    Despite knowing she was trying to evade the conversation, Mitchel felt helpless.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    His gaze dimmed as he softly uttered, “Get some good rest.


    ”


    With that, he quietly closed the door behind him and departed.


    Raegan lifted the nket once she heard the door click shut, her gaze fixed on the stark white ceiling, lost in contemtion.


    She hadn’t made up her mind about rekindling things with Mitchel.


    Suddenly, a wave of fear surged within her, and she longed to flee.


    The darkness of the prior night’s solitude had resurrected that familiar sensation of abandonment.


    She was gripped by fear…


    Raegan recuperated just in time for her babies’ celebration.


    Considering the imminent event, Erick contemted involving Mitchel in the n.


    By then, when the times came, he would lead a team and break into Davey’s vi, but he fretted over Raegan’s safety at the celebration, uncertain if Stefan could adequately protect her.


    Having Mitchel for extra security would undoubtedly be advantageous.


    However, Raegan hesitated.


    Mitchel’s mobility issues could potentiallyplicate matters and raise Davey’s suspicions.


    Erick’s apprehensions were not unfounded.


    The n wasn’t without its risks.


    Whether it was the attendees of the celebration or those tasked with sneaking into Davey’s vi, the situation seemed fraught with uncertainty.


    With time ticking away and insufficient time to coordinate personnel, the rescue for Casey couldn’t wait.


    After all, Davey was scheduled to sign thepany transfer contract the day after tomorrow.


    Once he departed, the chances of ascertaining Casey’s whereabouts were slim.


    Mitchel grasped the significance of the babies’ celebration, as Erick had elucidated, aimed at aiding Stefan.


    ording to an unspoken decree of the Clifford family, following the baby’s celebration, Stefan would assume the formal role of independent household head and could relocate his registration from the family home.


    Although Mitchel felt a pang of jealousy, he suppressed it, acknowledging that while Stefan held affections for Raegan, Stefanpeted fairly without resorting to deceitful tactics.


    A trulymendable rival in love.


    The day of the celebration dawned.


    Raegan, adorned in a resplendent red dress paired with a gray fur coat, exuded elegance and allure.


    Davey, who hadn’t made a public appearance for quite some time, made his entrance at the celebration.


    In Aurora’s social hierarchy, invitations from influential families like the Cliffords and Maxwells were obligatory, with failure to attend considered a severance of ties.


    Thus, Davey’s arrival promptly thrust him into the spotlight.


    d in an uncharacteristic cream-colored velvet suit, he exuded the facade of a schr, though Raegan knew better than to be deceived by his schrly facade.


    His true character often betrayed itself in unguarded moments.


    For some inexplicable reason, Raegan always felt apprehensive in Davey’s presence, especially since he tended to fixate his gaze on her upon arrival, lingering ufortably long.


    Concealed within Raegan’s pearl earring, an earpiece ryed Erick’s voice.


    They had already rendered all of Davey’s security personnel and servants incapacitated within his vi.
