Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 43
? ? ? ? ?
The man who left the room was Henley.
At this time, he was wearing a khaki windbreaker and narrow-framed glasses. He had a gentle temperament, which gave him an elegant appearance that was pleasing to the eye.
«I think Raegan is the person you need. “I'm sure of it,” Henley said flippantly instead of answering Cara's question.
Cara was her cousin and they were very close. They had a good relationship since they were children.
The corners of Cara's lips twitched into a smile. He couldn't deny Henley's words. Indeed, he needed Raegan in his company.
She would be venturing into something new, and she was a little excited.
Cara suddenly asked curiously, “By the way, why do you have to hide?
Why didn't you say hello to her a moment ago?
«It's not necessary. "I don't want her to think I'm helping her."
Henley responded softly.
As much as possible, he didn't want Raegan to feel burdened with gratitude toward him.
“Hmm… I wonder why you pay so much attention to it. Do you like it?" Cara couldn't help but scoff.
Henley had been cold as ice in recent years. It was the first time he showed interest in a woman. He really cared a lot about Raegan.
But soon, Cara's smile was replaced by a frown. According to her resume, she is married. Henley, are you trying to steal another man's wife?
Henley was secretly helping Raegan. He hadn't even left the room. It seemed like Raegan probably didn't know that Henley had feelings for her.
Thinking of this, Cara's brow furrowed even more. Henley, many women are looking forward to being with you. Why don't you look for someone else? Do you want to be called a third wheel or accused of being a homewrecker?
Henley frowned.
“What are you talking about?”
He suppressed the emotions surging in his heart and feigned indifference.
All he wanted to do was help and support Raegan.
Right now, he could only help her in this way. But he didn't want her to know what he was doing for her.
Cara looked at Henley and shook her head. He knew he couldn't get him to admit his feelings for Raegan, so he didn't push any further.
She and Henley grew up together, so she knew him well. He seemed friendly on the surface, but he was a sophisticated man.
And he was also determined. Once he made a decision, no one could change it.
Cara didn't give the matter any further thought. It didn't matter if Henley liked Raegan. As long as he didn't have an affair with Raegan, she decided to let him be.
After leaving the Alpire Studio, Raegan went straight to the hospital to visit her grandmother. He couldn't wait to tell Joanna the good news.
As expected, his grandmother was very happy and even had a good appetite during lunch.
When Raegan returned to Serenity Villas, she gathered her things. He wanted to return to Crystal Bay because it seemed more convenient. There was a subway station near her apartment, so it was easier for her to get to Studio Alpire.
Furthermore, he was only staying at Serenity Villas to recover. Now that he had recovered, he had no reason to stay there.
Raegan thought Mitchel probably didn't want to see her again. He must have been glad to know she had moved away.
Raegan had just finished packing when Luciana arrived at Serenity Villas. Raegan wasn't expecting this sudden visit. She hurriedly put the suitcase in the closet, panicking.
Luciana waited for Raegan in the living room. As soon as he saw her coming down the stairs, he got up and walked towards her.
He pulled Raegan lovingly and said kindly, “Raegan, today is my grandfather's birthday. "We go to the party together."
Luciana's grandfather was Mitchel's great-grandfather.
Raegan was so startled that she quickly waved her hand.
«Luciana, it is not appropriate for me to go there.»
Mitchel was the celebrant's great-grandson, so he had to be there too. After what happened between them last night, she was a little afraid to see him.
Furthermore, they would soon divorce. So it was inappropriate for her to appear on such an occasion and meet her elders.
Luciana must have understood what Raegan meant. He smiled and said, “I have told my grandfather about you and he is looking forward to seeing you in person. Do you have the courage to disappoint him?
Raegan was still hesitating.
"But…"
Knowing what Raegan was worried about, Luciana immediately interrupted, “I know you are not ready to meet the elders of the Dixon family yet. Don't worry. Others do not know your true identity. What they know is that you are Kyler's goddaughter.
Raegan didn't want to make things difficult for Luciana, so she finally agreed.
Luciana was very happy. She took Raegan to pick out a dress for dinner.
When Raegan left the dressing room, Luciana was shocked. The light purple dress she had chosen fit her perfectly. Raegan was as beautiful as a fairy from the deepest forest.
Raegan looked so stunning that Luciana couldn't help but exclaim, "Raegan, you look gorgeous!"
In reality, Luciana had a secret plan. He was planning to make his stupid son Mitchel jealous tonight.
People said that jealousy was the best catalyst for a couple. Luciana wanted Mitchel to acknowledge her affection for Raegan and treat her well. Therefore, Luciana decided to give them a push.
Soon, the car stopped in front of Luciana's grandfather's villa.
Tonight, the parking lot was full of luxury cars. The villa looked magnificent and many guests from rich and powerful families came.
The town was bustling with people.
The Lloyd family was also very prosperous in the time of Luciana's grandfather. It was one of the most powerful families.
But when Luciana's father took over the family, the Lloyds lost momentum.
Now, the only pride of the Lloyd family was Luciana's son, Mitchel.
Since Mitchel was Luciana's son, the famous people of Ardlens were willing to attend the party.
As soon as they entered the villa, Luciana took Raegan to the second floor to meet Luciana's grandfather.
Today was Luciana's grandfather's centenary, and the old man was in a good mood.
Raegan congratulated him and wished him the best. He was so happy that he immediately gave her a jade pendant.
It was an exquisite jade pendant. Raegan didn't dare accept it, but Luciana insisted on letting her take it.
When it came to Luciana, Raegan really didn't have the heart to refuse.
Then, Luciana and her grandfather talked about some family matters.
Raegan thought it was inappropriate for her to stay in the room, so she found an excuse to go outside and wait outside.
He didn't turn. He just waited in the second-floor lobby.
The lobby opened onto the banquet hall on the first floor. Raegan stood in an inconspicuous corner and watched the scene below.
Then Raegan noticed two women in bright clothes chatting near the railing not far away.
«I heard that Mitchel, from the Dixon family, is coming tonight. I haven't seen it yet and I'm curious what it looks like. But they say he is magnificently attractive. I must take the opportunity to get closer to him.
"Forget it. You won't stand a chance. I heard that he has been with Lauren of the Murray family for many years. Lauren just returned from abroad recently. "There have been tons of rumors about the two of them."
“That sickly daughter of the Murray family? I really don't understand why Mitchel likes her. I don't know how she managed to seduce Mitchel all these years.
«Lauren is Mitchel's first love. In fact, while Lauren was abroad, he never had relationships with other women. "He really waited for her to come back."
«Oh, I'm so envious of Lauren. "I'm willing to do anything to marry Mitchel."
"Ha ha! You wish! Every woman dreams of becoming Mitchel's wife.
The two women were chatting as if no one was around. They had no idea that Raegan had heard it all, and now she was a little upset.
Do all women dream of being Mitchel's wife? She didn't agree. Maybe she was different from the other women because she didn't want to be Mitchel's wife now.
After all, she could never share the man she loved with other women.
Raegan didn't want to listen to their conversation anymore, so she turned around and started to leave. But he didn't expect to run into someone he didn't want to see.
Tessa was wearing a turquoise evening dress, which suited her very well.
Since the birthday party was being celebrated by the Lloyd family, it was expected that the guests would be from rich and powerful families. So Tessa's mother urged her to attend the party and take the opportunity to choose a good man for herself.
When Tessa saw Raegan, she didn't seem surprised at all. He walked up to Raegan and blurted out, “Raegan, you're really amazing.
After all, as Mitchel's wife, your place is the dream of other females.
In reality, Tessa was still shocked when she found out that Raegan was Mitchel's wife. He found it unacceptable. When she ignored this fact and tried to make things difficult for Raegan, she was dragged out of the Dixon residence, which was embarrassing.
Every time he remembered it, he wished he could tear Raegan apart.
Tessa had no choice but to endure it. As long as Raegan was married to Mitchel, she couldn't hurt him.
But that didn't mean others couldn't do it.
A hint of evil flashed in Tessa's eyes. He had been holding a grudge against Raegan. Now it was time to settle the score with Raegan.
Raegan couldn't help but frown at Tessa's words. But he suppressed the urge to reply. Today was a big day for the Lloyd family, and he didn't want to ruin it by causing trouble. So he decided to take a detour to avoid Tessa.
However, Tessa blocked his path. Obviously, Tessa had no intention of letting Raegan go so easily.
Then Tessa continued: “Don't think I don't know the truth. You only seduced Mitchel, so that he would be forced to marry you. But he doesn't love you at all. His heart belongs only to Lauren. Forced love doesn't last. If you still have any shame left, divorce Mitchel as soon as possible. "Let him and Lauren have a happy ending."
Raegan didn't want to argue with Tessa. But that didn't mean she was going to let Tessa insult her.
He laughed softly and said, “Why should I? I have done many things for this marriage. As long as I'm happy, I think it's all worth it."
Indeed, Raegan had had a great time the past two years. Things only changed when she discovered the truth about Mitchel's cuteness.
Raegan's words made Tessa angry. Tessa pointed at Raegan's nose and shouted, "You shameless bitch! Who do you think you are? "You can't even overshadow Lauren."
“Oh yeah?” Raegan scoffed nonchalantly.
"Why didn't Mitchel marry her then?"
“You… How dare you!”
Tessa was so exasperated that she wanted to continue scolding Raegan.
Suddenly, he saw something and changed his mind. She scoffed: "See for yourself and tell me if it's still worth it."
