Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 146
? ? ? ? ?
Raegan was surprised when she recognized the driver of the car. It turned out to be Matteo.
Matteo looked at Raegan and asked respectfully, "Mrs. Dixon, where are you going?"
Raegan was slightly stunned when she heard Matteo address her.
But suddenly, Mitchel's cold face when he saw him a few days ago flashed through his mind.
It took her a while to answer: "Matteo, I'm not Mitchel's wife anymore, so please don't call me Mrs. Dixon anymore." I'm Miss Hayes.
She supposed Mitchel wouldn't be happy if Matteo called her Mrs. Dixon.
Matteo looked a little embarrassed. He replied, "Okay, Miss Hayes.
Where is he going? "Shall I take you?"
Raegan looked at her phone. No one had yet accepted his reservation. He hesitated whether or not to accept Matteo's offer. Maybe she could ask him to take her to the station, where she could catch a taxi.
"Well…"
"Matteo, why do you always meddle in other people's business?"
Before Raegan could say anything, a deep, disgruntled male voice interrupted her.
She was a little surprised, not expecting Mitchel to be in the car as well. The windows were opaque, so I couldn't see inside.
His face flushed for a moment and then paled. She felt incredibly uncomfortable.
Mitchel continued addressing Matteo: "Since you have so much free time, go to the construction site in Ardlens and keep an eye on me."
Matteo was speechless.
In reality, Mitchel was the one who noticed Raegan on the side of the road and asked her to stop the car.
Matteo understood that assistants like him had to have the ability to read the situation and recognize things that did not need to be explicitly said by their bosses.
When Mitchel spoke, his tone sounded mechanical and cold. Raegan didn't need to see his face to know how impatient he was now.
Raegan knew that Mitchel had grown impatient because of her. Matteo was only involved.
Thinking about this, he felt like crying. She had to admit that she was hurt.
But Raegan forced a smile. He didn't want to be in the same car with Mitchel, so he had to lie to Matteo.
«Thank you, but nothing happens. Someone will come to pick me up. "You go ahead."
Matteo hesitated a little. He looked nervously in the rearview mirror. Sure enough, Mitchel's face seemed very gloomy.
Mitchel noticed the kind of look Matteo gave him. His eyebrows furrowed tightly as he shouted, “Aren't we leaving yet?”
“Miss Hayes, we're ahead of you,” Matteo said, nodding to Raegan. Then he rolled up the car window, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Before Raegan could react, the luxurious black car disappeared from sight.
His eyes were still red.
She was hurt, but she also knew that Mitchel had reasons to ignore her. After all, they were strangers to each other now.
Obviously, Mitchel was over it. But what about Raegan? Why did his coldness continue to make her sad?
Maybe because she had loved him for ten years. So, when they suddenly became strangers to each other, it was inevitable that she would feel a little wronged.
Not only did she remember the good times they had had, but also the pain he had caused her.
Raegan knew that all wounds take time to heal.
For now, he had a more important matter to attend to. So he put aside his other thoughts and focused on his current situation.
Until now, no taxi had accepted your reservation online. Maybe because Tenassie was too far away. No driver would want to take such a long trip.
With each tick of the clock, Raegan's anxiety increased.
Suddenly, a car horn interrupted his thoughts.
Then a black Mercedes-Benz pulled up in front of Raegan. The window rolled down, revealing the face he hadn't seen in a long time. It was Henley.
«Hello, Raegan! What a coincidence! "I didn't expect to see you here."
Henley was pleasantly surprised to see Raegan.
«Where are you going? I'll take you."
Raegan looked back at her phone. Still no one was taking notice, so he decided to tell Henley the truth. He got into the car and said, "Can you take me to the station, please?"
«To the station? That? Are you going somewhere?
Henley looked at his watch.
«It's rush hour. At this time it is difficult to get tickets. "You might not even buy one."
«I'm going to Tenassie. I have something important to discuss there.
"Oh really? Another coincidence, then. I'm actually on my way to Cedarcrest. It's next to Tenassie, so I can leave you there.
This fortunate turn of events greatly eased Raegan's nervousness. She felt like Henley was her savior, and she was so grateful.
"That's great! Thanks, Henley. I'm sorry I bothered you.
«Don't even mention it. "It's no bother."
Henley smiled, and his eyes sparkled.
"I'm actually lucky."
Raegan was confused.
"What do you mean?"
Henley looked at her and smiled playfully.
«I thought it would be a lonely journey. "I didn't expect God to send me a beautiful traveling companion."
Although Raegan knew Henley was joking, she couldn't help but blush.
She lowered her head to hide her blushing face and said politely, “Thank you, Henley. "You are a great help."
Henley said with a smile, “Hey, it's okay. How many times do I have to tell you that you don't have to be so polite to me? We are friends, right?
When Henley said this, he spoke naturally and without a hint of flirtation. He really had a great sense of boundaries.
Raegan nodded.
«Okay, I understand. But still, thank you."
Henley smiled satisfied. He then started the car and drove away. As he turned a corner, his sharp eyes spotted a black Bentley parked on the side of the road.
If Raegan looked up, she would definitely see him.
Henley suddenly shouted, “Raegan!”
Raegan turned her head and looked at Henley questioningly.
"What's happening?"
As Raegan looked at Henley, her car had already passed the Bentley.
Henley was relieved. He relaxed his posture and looked straight ahead.
"I heard you got divorced."
Raegan nodded and hummed in response. He didn't really want to talk about it, thinking it was inappropriate to discuss it with Henley.
It was a good thing that Henley wasn't one to meddle in other people's business.
He no longer asked her about the divorce. Instead, he smiled kindly and said, “Now you are lost. But I am sure that life will treat you better and better.
Raegan thought Henley was a smart man because he was good at using metaphors.
But he must admit that he was right. She was truly lost as she pursued Mitchel, not only in direction but also in her heart.
She ended up full of scars.
But now he had found his way back. And she was determined to improve.
Inside the black Bentley, the atmosphere dropped dramatically to freezing point.
Matteo glanced surreptitiously in the rearview mirror. Mitchel's beautiful eyebrows furrowed tightly and he exuded a repressive aura.
Matteo regretted what he had said before. He wanted to slap himself for being too talkative. It was all his fault.
He was Mitchel's personal assistant, so he knew him well. Mitchel must have been angry at Raegan's refusal to be called Mrs. Dixon.
It was very evident that Raegan wanted to distance herself from Mitchel. Of course, this had hurt Mitchel's ego.
But despite his anger, Mitchel still couldn't leave Raegan alone on the side of the road. Matteo felt it was his time to step in and offer some advice.
So he immediately suggested they go back to pick up Raegan because she didn't look like she was waiting for anyone. Instead, she seemed anxious.
But when he turned around, they discovered that she was indeed waiting for someone.
Furthermore, he deliberately turned his head when his car passed by the car she was riding in.
Did he really hate Mitchel that much?
Matteo sighed regretfully. He promised himself never to try to be smart and give suggestions again.
Otherwise, you would undoubtedly be the next person to lose your job.
They were still parked on the side of the road. Matteo asked nervously: “Mr. Dixon, what do we do now?
Mitchel closed his eyes and pressed his thin lips together.
“Just drive.”
When Henley and Raegan arrived at Tenassie, it was already afternoon.
Since Henley still had to go somewhere else, Raegan didn't want to bother him anymore. He insisted on getting off in the city.
Henley had to leave her alone. Before she got out of the car, he said “I'll pick you up when I finish my work. Let's get back together."
Raegan nodded. But inwardly he thought that he didn't want to bother Henley again. Although Cedarcrest was close to Tenassie, he still needed to make a detour.
Henley reached out and ruffled her hair.
«Hey, don't just nod. Will you wait for me?
His question sounded casual, but Raegan sensed that it was somewhat probing.
Raegan hesitated for a moment. Then he answered honestly, “I don't know how long it will take to finish here. If it's too late..."
"It won't be too late," Henley interrupted.
The sporadic light shone on his handsome face, making him look even more gentle.
He obviously didn't want to give Raegan the chance to refuse.
«It will be too boring to go back alone. I won't have anyone to talk to and I might get sleepy while driving. So, will you wait for me?
