The dinner gatheringsted quite a while.
Halfway through the dinner, Raegan excused herself and went to the restroom down the hall.
When Raegan came out, she noticed a womaning out of the family restroom but disappeared a secondter.
The woman seemed somewhat familiar.
Apart from that, there were some few strange sounds emanating from the family restroom.
Reagan frowned, and she was about to open the door of the restroom and check what was going on when someone spoke from
behind her.
“Raegan.” Raegan turned around and found Katie standing behind her.
Katie''s gaze flicked toward the family restroom behind Raegan before she narrowed her eyes.
Then, Katie turned her attention back to Raegan and said, "Sorry, | didn''t have a chance to say hello to you earlier." Raegan was
a little confused.
She had already made it clear that she didn''t know Katie, so she didn''t understand why they needed to greet each other.
Katie''s lips curved upwards into a warm smile.
“Mitchel mentioned that you have amnesia and that''s why you don''t remember me.
Allow me to reintroduce myself.
I''m Katie Glyn, and I''ve known Mitchel since we were children." Raegan arched her eyebrow and inquired, "What does that have
to do with me?" | Katie paused for a moment, then smiled gently.
"| just wanted to say hello." : Katie''s calm words had zero effect on Raegan.
Raegan''s tone remained cold.
"Why would you say hello to me? Aren''t you Mitchel''s friend? | fail to see how this concerns me.
Is there a reason why you should talk to me? Were we close before?” Raegan''s string of questions made Katie''s face turn pale.
Katie was the esteemed daughter of the Glyn family and was also the vice president of the Dixon Group.
Both attributesbined made her an influential figure in Ardlens.
As a result, she was treated with respect and deference by everyone she came across.
It had been ages since anyone dared to challenge her like this.
Despite feeling her temper rise, Katie forced a smile and spoke calmly to Raegan.
"You seem to have misunderstood me, Raegan.
| simply happened to walk by and when | saw you, | thought | should have a word with you." Raegan''s demeanor remained the
same as she coolly retorted, "| didn''t misunderstand anything.
| really don''t want to talk to you." Raegan was not the type of person to unjustly mistreat someone.
However, while Katie''s words seemed polite on the surface, Raegan knew exactly what she was trying to imply.
Adiscerning ear would pick up on the subtle tone of superiority in Katie''s introduction.
By saying she grew up with Mitchel, she was trying to tell Raegan that she was Mitchel''s childhood sweetheart.
Raegan''s expression turned sour.
She never imagined there were so many | potential love interests around Mitchel.
Not only did he have Lauren, his crazy first love, but also a childhood sweetheart.
Indeed, Mitchel''s outstanding looks and excellence were attractive to women.
But Raegan didn''t understand how this had anything to do with her.
They had already divorced, so she hoped these people would stop bothering her.
As far as this little introduction was concerned, Raegan felt justified in her hostility.
Katie''s lips trembled as she struggled to form a smile.
“Raegan, have | hurt your feelings? Do you think that Mitchel and I..." Katie didn''t finish her sentence, leaving enough room for
imagination.
f Raegan nced at her and enunciated in a deliberate voice, "First of all, we don''t know each other, so | hope you “don''t pretend
to be my friend.
~ Secondly..." Raegan smirked before continuing, "You need to understand that what you consider precious may mean nothing
to others.
Don''t be so confident that just because you likeme things, others will, too." Katie''s face drained of color immediately.
She was astonished by how much Raegan had changed.
In the past, Raegan was a people-pleaser and never stood up for herself when she was bullied.
Now that Raegan was done saying her piece, she turned on her heel and was about to head back to the chamber when she
bumped into Mitchel who just came out of the chamber.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.
Mitchel''s handsome face was dark and cold and his thin lips were tightly pursed.
His displeased expression made it clear that he had heard Raegan''s words.
Raegan knew her words must have hurt Mitchel''s pride.
However, she didn''t feel any sympathy toward him.
She only found the woman around him annoying.
She didn''t spare him a second nce and walked away.
Mitchel hesitated, his fist clenching and then rxing as if he was unsure whether to grab her.
Eventually, he decided against it.
Katie breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she had seen Mitcheling out early on.
Moreover, she always paid attention to her reputation and the impression she left on others.
On the surface, there was nothing wrong with what she just said.
Any outsiders who heard her would think that she wanted to catch up with Raegan.
But in reality, Katie wanted to.use this opportunity to make Mitchel see how hostile Raegan became.
Katie approached Mitchel at a leisurely pace, her gaze fixed on him and a smile on her lips.
"| don''t understand why Raegan is upset.
It seems like there was a misunderstanding somewhere.
Do you think | should apologize and rify things with her?" Katie was confident that Mitchel wouldn''t find anything wrong with
what she just said to Raegan.
In fact, she was certain that her words made her seem generous.
Mitchel''s thin lips parted slightly.
He replied, "Don''t bother." Mitchel knew better than anyone why Raegan was acting this way.
Her actions were not driven by anger or jealousy.
In truth, she despised everyone around him because she disliked him.
gees Oblivious to Mitchel''s thoughts,
Katie took his words as surficial
meaning and was delighted, thinking
he was siding with her and deemed
Raegan being unreasonable. Visit

The more unreasonable Raegan acted, the more magnanimous she had to be.
Affecting a concerned expression, Katie murmured, "Don''t take Raegan''s words too personally.
I''m sure she didn''t intend for them to be hurtful." Again, her words were delicately chosen.
While her words appearedforting on the surface, they were making Mitchel rey Raegan''s words in his mind.
After all, Raegan just called Mitchel ame thing.
Mitchel had never been described with such an adjective in his life.
If he was ame thing, then there was no good thing in this world.
er Mitchel didn''t bother looking at Katie and warned, "She doesn''t like you.
You should avoid her in the future and not make her angry." Katie was stunned.
The smile on her face froze.
She thought she must have misheard.
"Mitchel, what do you mean?" Mitchel stared at Katie.
"I''m pursuing her now, so | don''t want any unnecessary misunderstandings.
Since she doesn''t like you, just give
her a wide berth and avoid her from
now on." This time, there was no way
Katie could misunderstand his
words. Visit noveldrama.org to read

Not only that, but she also had to make way for Raegan when she saw Raegan! She couldn''tprehend the logic behind this.
Despite her usual etiquette and generosity, Katie couldn''t shake the feeling of dissatisfaction at the current situation.
Katie''s smile vanished as she fought to control her emotions.
"Mitchel, did you ever consider my feelings?”
