Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 222

«He is willing to exchange your life for any amount of money as long as you are safe and sound. But I can't get a cent if you die,” Tessa revealed.

Tessa's lips curved into what she thought was a sweet smile. But on her face, she looked terrifying.

"He seems to care about you," Tessa added.

This revelation left Raegan bewildered and unable to even understand her own emotions.

«I once thought Mitchel was interested in Lauren. But it turns out he prefers you, motherfucker. Lauren cheated on me. "She made me believe that if you disappeared, she could put herself in your place, and that I would gain a lot from being her friend," Tessa explained.

"But I never expected you to be able to surpass even Lauren, Mitchel's first love!"

Raegan's eyes widened at the mention of Lauren's name, and she asked in disbelief, "Are you saying Lauren tricked you into kidnapping me last time?"

Raegan had suspected from the beginning that the mastermind was Lauren. But Lauren had always denied it, and Tessa disappeared without a trace.

The mystery had remained unsolved, especially after Lauren was admitted to a psychiatric hospital.

Raegan blushed as Tessa's words confirmed her worst fears.

His voice shaking with rage, he asked, "You two conspired to harm my daughter, right?"

In Tessa's eyes, Raegan was going to die today. Therefore, Tessa no longer hid the truth from Raegan, wanting her to suffer from the revelation before the final end of her life.

«At that time, Lauren provided me with the money and revealed details about your discharge. Then, I arranged for someone to kidnap you in the underground parking lot. Do you remember that Lauren was kidnapped coincidentally that day? Well, it was just a set-up for Mitchel, urging Mitchel to run to save her while leaving me time to finish you off. But…"

Tessa confessed without a hint of remorse. Then he paused briefly and looked at Raegan with apparent disdain.

«Even if I tell you, what difference does it make? Lauren didn't do anything directly. What can you do to him?

Raegan felt a surge of fury that made her entire body tremble.

Lauren was definitely involved.

Lauren played her cards right and made sure there was no direct evidence against her even if the truth came to light. How evil! What a cunning and ruthless woman!

The truth was that Tessa also resented Lauren. If it hadn't been for Lauren's manipulation, Mitchel wouldn't have chased her like this. What's more, she wouldn't have met that perverted fisherman and they wouldn't have tortured her.

In Tessa's tormented mind, everyone she met was to blame for her misery. The more he thought about it, the more his face contorted into a ferocious expression.

«It's all your fault! ALL of you! I was a refined young woman.

My face was my fortune! Tessa spat, her face even more twisted into a grotesque appearance.

Tessa had spent millions maintaining her looks and striving for perfection. From his looks alone, I assumed he could have married into a wealthy family and led a comfortable life. But now, his once impeccable face was beyond repair.

Medical experts had told Tessa that no amount of money could fix her face.

His body had also deteriorated from abandonment.

For Tessa, life had lost its meaning and purpose.

Today she was willing to risk her life. A victory meant escaping and getting rich, while a defeat would take Raegan and Mitchel down with it.

Raegan eyed Tessa with alarm. Her behavior was erratic and far from sanity.

At that point, Raegan tried to appeal to Tessa's remaining reason and advised her, “Tessa, don't make things worse. Let me go now, and you may still have a chance. But if you cross the line, there will be no turning back.

«Let you go? Keep dreaming! Tessa laughed frighteningly, sending a shiver down Raegan's spine.

«Oh, I'll let you go. But straight to hell. You and Mitchel can be there together.

Fear gripped Raegan's heart. He realized that Tessa was beyond reason.

Without saying anything else, Tessa gagged Raegan with a cloth and pulled out a strange custom-made phone. Then, he started a video call.

"Now, let's see where Mr. Dixon is."

A moment later, the video connected.

Mitchel appeared on the screen. His clothes were intact, but his hair was slightly disheveled.

Raegan, on the other hand, was not seen in the video.

Mitchel kicked the bag next to him and said in a cold, businesslike tone, “Tessa, I'm almost to the location you gave me. "I brought the money with me."

“As punctual as always, Mitchel,” Tessa commented.

«I give the money, you give the person. That's the deal."

«It's been a while since I last saw you. I've missed you, Mitchel, but..." Tessa laughed mischievously and added, “You're too formidable, Mitchel. "You scare me."

Mitchel gritted his teeth in frustration.

"What do you want?"

«First, stab you twice. Then, I will give you the exact location.

And remember, go in alone.

In a defiant gesture, Mitchel brought a woman closer and showed her on the screen.

«Do you think that life

"Is your mother's money and this money enough leverage, Tessa?"

Kenya appeared on the screen. Her mouth was bleeding and swollen, clearly a victim of abuse.

«Tessa, please, don't be impulsive! Mitchel has promised to let you go and give us the money without involving the police. We can take the money and flee the country. Please, don't do anything reckless!

Kenya implored.

Tessa looked at Kenya with eyes devoid of warmth and only disdain.

«Mitchel, do you really think you can threaten me with my mother? "I don't care even if you kill her."

“Oh yeah?” Mitchel responded indifferently.

"I guess we'll kick her out then."

On a high-speed highway, being thrown from a car was like sending Kenya to its death.

Hearing this, Kenya screamed desperately: “Tessa, how can you do this to me? I'm your mother! How can you let me die like this?

If you weren't so useless, would it have ended up like this? Tessa responded.

«Why didn't you seduce someone richer? Instead, you settled for a coward. When things went south, your husband kicked us out the door. All because of you. You failed your husband, and he didn't help us. If I could choose, I would never choose a useless mother like you!

Kenya was speechless at Tessa's cruel words. She never expected such cruelty and blatant disregard for her life from her own daughter.

Tessa had been born selfish. He had no sense of family and only saw the value in people if they could be useful to him.

«Everything I have suffered is because of you. All because of you! "It's all your fault." Tessa screamed hysterically.

Overwhelmed by Tessa's cruelty, Kenya collapsed to her knees and an emptiness consumed her heart.

Even Mitchel mocked Kenya and muttered, "You brought this on yourself."

If Kenya hadn't turned a blind eye to Tessa's evil, things wouldn't have gotten out of hand. In other words, it was Kenya's inaction that had led it to this terrible situation.

Just as Kenya was about to be ejected from the car, Tessa turned the camera on Raegan.

"Mitchel, since we're cousins, I'll give you a minute to think about it."

Raegan looked directly at Mitchel through the screen, her eyes brimming with tears.

In the dark night, Mitchel was a beacon of light. His handsome face, which embodied serenity, was now marked by anxiety.

Mitchel always seemed proud and cold, however, he showed vulnerability and fear when seeing Raegan after she was kidnapped again by Tessa.

Raegan felt a sting in her nose, a precursor to tears, and a wave of emotional pain washed over her. Mitchel's unwavering determination to save and protect her made her feel like she was not alone in this world.

Meanwhile, Mitchel's eyebrows furrowed deeply. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger. How dare Tessa kidnap Raegan again?

If anger could pass through the screen, Tessa would have been wiped out by now.

Mitchel clenched his fists tightly and looked at Raegan's pale face, which reflected her terror and pain.

His lips moved as if he wanted to speak, but no words came out. In this situation, words seemed useless.

Only quick and decisive action could change things and bring comfort.

Suddenly, Tessa's voice cut the tension from off camera, counting down: "Mitchel, five seconds left... Four, three, two, one!"

When the countdown ended, Tessa frowned when she saw that Mitchel hadn't made a move.

«Don't you want to play along with me? Well okay. Let me give you a demonstration.

Tessa brandished the knife menacingly and aimed it at Raegan's leg.

“Stop!” Mitchell shouted.

The next second, the sound of the blade tearing through flesh could be heard. Mitchel had stabbed himself with the knife in his thigh.
