Before she could reflect further, Annis's panicked voice broke the tension, drawing Raegan's attention. «Miss Foster, something terrible has happened. Mr. Dixon has fainted.

Holding her toy, Janey had been looking forward to spending time with Mitchel.

But upon hearing the news, he burst into tears. “Dad…” Her screams pierced the air, tearing at Raegan's heart.

Picking Janey up in her arms, panic gripped Raegan. His mind churned as he dealt with the sudden turn of events. When had Mitchel become so fragile?

As Raegan approached the stairs, she stopped and handed Janey to Annis. With a trembling voice, he ordered, “Go and ask Babur for help. Take Janey to her room.

Reluctant to leave, Janey protested through tears: "But I want to see Dad..."

Raegan gently comforted Janey: “Be good. Your dad will be fine."

The situation left Raegan no choice but to leave Janey out of sight of the fainting Mitchel, not wanting to scare her.

With tears filling her eyes, Janey pleaded, “Mommy, I promise to be a good girl. Please save dad, okay?

Raegan struggled to maintain her composure and replied, “Of course, honey. Your father will be fine."

As Annis carried Janey away, Raegan felt tremors in her limbs, making the task of climbing the stairs seem daunting.

When he reached the top, his heart sank when he saw Mitchel motionless on the floor, his face discolored and his lips stained with blood.

For a moment, the world seemed to spin around her, leaving Raegan disoriented and deafened by the chaos of her thoughts.

Just when he felt on the verge of despair, Babur appeared, closely followed by Matteo. Babur had called Matteo.

When Matteo saw the figure on the ground, he ran towards him, knelt down and exclaimed: “Mr. Dixon!"

When he received no response from Mitchel, Matteo's anxiety increased and he quickly began CPR.

However, despite his efforts, Mitchel still remained unresponsive. Matteo quickly picked up Mitchel in his arms and carried him down the stairs.

Raegan followed Matteo, her movements instinctive. When Matteo placed Mitchel in the back seat of the car, she stopped.

Matteo turned to Raegan, his expression pleading. "Mrs. Dixon, please come with us."

Raegan's eyes stung with unshed tears. He clenched his fists and tried to move forward several times before he mastered his emotions. "I'm not going," he said, his voice devoid of warmth.

Disbelief was reflected in Matteo's features, disappointment evident in his eyes. "Actually, Mr. Dixon..."

Raegan cut him off, urgency coloring her tone: “Hurry.”

Matteo almost forgot Mitchel's directive to keep the fact that Mitchel was being injected by a mysterious syringe a secret from Raegan.

With time running out, Matteo bit his lip and held back his words.

He started the car and drove off at full speed.

Watching the car disappear into the distance, Raegan slumped against the doorframe and suddenly sat on the floor. The cold of shock washed over her like an arctic wind, making her shiver uncontrollably.

With a soft snap, a lone tear fell onto the back of her hand.

Looking at the tear, Raegan couldn't help but feel a deep sadness inside her. Wasn't his heart already beyond feelings? Yet there she was, consumed by the anguish of seeing Mitchel in a coma.

No matter how much she tried to convince herself that she didn't care, she couldn't hold back the flood of tears. It was as if his emotions were beyond his control. What if something really happened to him?

The fear of the unknown took hold of his heart and spread through his veins like poison.

In a sudden surge of determination, Raegan tried to get up and head to the hospital. But his legs, weakened by the weight of his emotions, refused to cooperate, threatening to give way beneath his feet.

“Raegan!” A familiar figure ran to her side, supporting her.

Raegan's eyes filled with tears as she looked at the man before her.

“Stefan, help me… I need to go to the hospital.”

After receiving a call from Annis, Stefan had rushed over without hesitation.

In Erick's absence, Stefan temporarily moved into the villa next door to take care of Raegan.

As they headed to the hospital, Stefan turned his handsome face to look at Raegan and took in her distressing state. His hands couldn't help but tighten on the steering wheel.

Don't worry. "If there is no medical history, a brief coma is usually not a cause for great concern."

Raegan clenched her fists, unable to find words.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Stefan quickly searched for information about the newly admitted patient.

Returning with a relaxed expression, Stefan told him: “I checked.

Mr. Dixon is fine.

"Are you conscious?"

«I'm still not sure. It's in the upstairs room. Do you want to see it? Stefan asked.

After a moment of contemplation, Raegan replied, "Yes, I would."

"OK".

As they walked up the stairs, Stefan pointed toward the living room, saying, “It's right there. Do you want me to accompany you?

Raegan shook her head and said, "No, I'll go alone."

«Shall I wait for you then?» Stefan asked.

Raegan nodded. He intended to see Mitchel briefly to make sure he was okay and then leave.

“Very good,” Stefan said, visibly relieved. "Forward. "I will be here."

Approaching the designated room, Raegan hesitated. Just as she approached the door handle, a familiar voice called out to her. “Raegan?”
