Chapter 19:

? ? ? ? ?

At seven in the morning the next day, Raegan got up ready to go to the courthouse to process the divorce.

His appointment was for nine thirty. It was still early, so he decided to take a bus there.

The episode at the mall had ruined Raegan's mood, and she didn't want to go out to dinner with Nicole. When she returned home, she realized that the baby clothes she had brought were missing.

She called the mall, but they couldn't find her either.

Maybe someone else had picked up the bag.

When the bus arrived at his stop, he texted Mitchel to tell him he had arrived.

He realized that the last time he had texted her was before Lauren returned.

The message said, "Honey, when are you coming home?"

It was from the day she found out about her pregnancy. At first, he wanted to break the news by text, but thought it would be better to do it in person.

Things didn't go as planned. Many things had changed since then.

Most of the chat messages were from her. Mitchel rarely answered, but when he did, he did so briefly.

I didn't think about this so much before. But now, looking back at the chat history, it seemed that Mitchel had always shown his lack of love for her.

Sadness invaded his heart again. He quickly deleted the chat, deciding not to think about that horrible past again.

As he walked toward the bureau, he heard someone shout, "Thief!"

A black-clad figure appeared out of nowhere and pushed Raegan away. She grabbed a red bag and ran away as if the devil was on her heels.

Fortunately, Raegan supported her weight with one knee before her body could hit the hard ground.

A woman in a red dress ran after the thief. Suddenly, he tripped and fell, twisting his ankle.

He looked at the passers-by with a pained expression and pleaded: “Help… Someone help me, please. In that bag there are important medications. "My sick husband needs them as soon as possible."

Although there were a few passersby, no one offered to help her despite her scream. They just watched as if they were watching a live drama.

Seeing this, Raegan stood up. He chased the thief while shouting, “Hey, you! Stop there! Someone stop him! "He is a thief."

His scream attracted the attention of the passers-by ahead. The thief returned his gaze and increased his speed.

Raegan did the same. In a matter of seconds, the distance between her and the thief was shortened. I used to be the star of the track team when I went to school. Catching up with this thief was going to be a piece of cake for her.

He kept shouting, “Drop the bag right now! Don't let the thief go. Stop him.

The thief was so scared that he didn't know when he ran into a dead end.

A second later, Raegan caught up to him.

Resting his hands on his knees, the thief gasped and cursed, “Fuck you! Have you gone crazy? Why have you chased me? The bag isn't even yours.

Raegan looked at the blonde thief's face, to find that he was quite young. He gasped and said kindly, “Hand over the bag and surrender. Believe me, this is not the right way to act. You're still young."

"Well, if you want the bag, come get it."

The thief threw the bag at his feet and put on a submissive face.

When Raegan bent down to pick it up without hesitation, the thief pulled out a knife and nearly stabbed her.

«Why don't you mind your fucking business, huh? Go to hell, bitch.

The sun had reflected on the blade of the knife the moment he pulled it out. Raegan reacted quickly. He pulled his shoulder and leaned his entire body to one side.

The knife only bruised Raegan's arm as the young man struggled to stay on his feet.

With a clang, the knife fell to the ground.

The thief lost it in an instant. He grabbed the knife again and shouted with red eyes: “How dare you dodge it! Today you are finished.

After that threat, he raised his hand again and aimed this time at Raegan's neck.

Raegan's face turned deathly pale. His eyes widened like never before.

Was this how he was going to die?

After the thought crossed his mind for a fleeting second, he reached out to grip the blade of the knife tightly.

Blood gushed from his palm in a matter of seconds.

It dripped down his hand.

Surprised, the thief remained motionless.

He looked at her as if she were a monster. Then he withdrew his hand as if the knife were hot as coal.

The two stared at each other.

Bang!

A police officer kicked the thief and pinned him to the ground in no time.

Raegan, who had lost a lot of blood, collapsed to the ground.

"My God!" Teary-eyed, the lady in red ran to Raegan and knelt beside her. I was horrified by the blood.

Pointing to the woman's bag, Raegan gritted her teeth in pain and said, "Check the bag. Are the drugs still inside?

The woman, with teary eyes, picked up the bag and looked inside. Then she said excitedly: “Yes, they are still there. Thank you very much, miss.

Don't say anything else. Let me send you to the hospital now.

Minutes later, the ambulance arrived in front of a hospital.

A doctor examined Raegan and determined that she was not seriously injured.

Raegan only had a few bruises and a cut on the palm of her hand.

While the doctor stitched the cut, the woman whose purse had been stolen stayed by Raegan's side the entire time. Raegan buried her face in the woman's shoulder, too afraid to look at the needle.

She had a phobia of needles and, since she was little, a low tolerance for pain.

She was very soft to have been born in poverty.

Any pain was magnified to an unbearable point.

Worse still, she had lied to the doctor that she was allergic to anesthesia so that her baby would not suffer.

The stitches made his scalp numb. He gritted his teeth and burst into tears.

The owner of the bag was heartbroken for Raegan. He wished he could ease Raegan's pain.

After the doctor left, it took a long time for Raegan to remember her divorce date.

Was Mitchel already waiting for you?

Raegan pulled out the phone to call Mitchel. She wasn't used to using her left hand, so she dropped the phone on the floor and tripped.

The woman helped her pick it up.

«Please don't move. I'll help you with anything."

On the way here, the two had exchanged polite words. The woman introduced herself as Luciana Lloyd.

«Luciana, could you help me make a call?»

"Clear! What is the number?

Raegan recited Mitchel's phone number. After marking it, Luciana asked curiously: "Who is it?"

Raegan replied, "My husband."

"OK". Luciana handed him the phone.

“Ermm… Could you talk to him for me?”

Raegan still hadn't gotten used to the pain. In the past, he always called Mitchel at the slightest injury. She usually burst into tears as soon as she heard his voice.

Now that her marriage was coming to an end, she felt she had no right to mourn him.

The last thing he wanted was to show her his vulnerability. He was afraid of losing control and crying.

"Well, what do I tell him?" Luciana readily accepted and asked.

«Tell him that I can't go to the appointment this morning. But I will be in court at two in the afternoon.

Luciana paused before saying, “Understood.”

The line opened shortly after.

For some reason, Luciana turned and whispered into the phone. Raegan pricked up her ears. However, he could not understand the conversation.

He only heard Luciana say that they were in the hospital.

Luciana hung up and turned back to Raegan. With a smile, she said, "Raegan, I hope you don't mind if I tell your husband exactly why you can't keep the appointment."

«It's okay, Luciana. It doesn't matter". Raegan bit the inside of her lip. Whether Luciana said it or not, Mitchel wouldn't care anyway.

"Are you going to marry this man today?"

«No, quite the opposite. "We're getting divorced," Raegan answered honestly.

“Get a divorce?” Luciana asked surprised, "Why?"

Raegan raised an eyebrow, wondering why Luciana was so interested in her business. Didn't Luciana know the word privacy?

Reading his mind, Luciana smiled and explained, Bear with me, Raegan, I've been through this too. Honestly, I think you're impulsive.

When Raegan realized that Luciana was just being nice, she said with a bitter smile, “Don't get me wrong. "My husband is the one who asked me for a divorce."

«How can it be? You are a beautiful and kind-hearted woman. "Is he blind or something?" Luciana said while grinding her teeth.

Raegan was amused by Luciana's reaction. It warmed his heart that someone he had just met was taking his side.

"He wants to marry someone else," Raegan said.

The two chatted for a while longer. When it was time to eat, Luciana went out to find food for Raegan.

The room was silent. Leaning against her pillow, Raegan yawned and began to doze.

Boom!

Suddenly, the door to the living room was pushed open.

Raegan's eyelids fluttered open. He looked in that direction.

A tall, straight figure was standing at the door. It was Mitchel. He was wearing a black suit. His face was very handsome and gave off a dignified and elegant aura.

Against the light, he walked slowly towards her.

It seemed wrapped in a layer of sacred aroma, which made it pure and pleasant.

Raegan's mind was clogged with many thoughts.

When he remembered the near-death experience he had experienced before, pain tugged at his heart.

She felt both sad and aggrieved.

He really wanted to show Mitchel all his wounds and cry in his arms.
