But as soon as he picked up a plate, it slipped from his hands and shattered on the floor.

Quickly kneeling to tidy up the mess, Raegan accidentally cut her finger on a sharp piece. Blood began to flow from the cut.

Looking at her injured finger, Raegan felt a stab of pain in her heart and a wave of tears threatened to spill.

Fighting back tears, she carefully cleaned up the broken pieces.

After that, I was too tired to even think about cleaning the dishes on the table. So he left them as they were.

Raegan had planned to take a shower and go to bed when Nicole called her to meet up.

Nicole was curious about what had happened to Austin yesterday and thought a call wasn't the best way to talk about it. So they met in a cafeteria.

Settling into their seats, Raegan raised an eyebrow and asked, “How did you get Jarrod to let you out?”

«I'm not locked up. Why wouldn't he let me go? Nicole responded, avoiding eye contact.

Jarrod had actually asked Nicole to help him with the bath. In exchange, he agreed to let him meet Raegan. Nicole was really worried about Austin, so she had no choice but to accept his condition.

Raegan sighed in relief upon hearing this and shared the events that unfolded in Ashfield.

«I'm sorry, my fault. I should have been more cautious. “I mistakenly thought Ashfield was a secluded place and didn't realize how complex things could be there,” Nicole confessed, gripping Raegan's hand tightly.

"Don't worry about that. Now everything is fine. "If it weren't for me, the police wouldn't have caught those bad guys." Raegan played a key role in stopping the criminal gang, and local police wanted to reward her.

However, Raegan rejected her, preferring to go unnoticed.

After all, she didn't see it as something important.

Nicole then transferred a million dollars to Raegan's account, saying, "Consider it rent."

Knowing that the security at Erick's premises was top-notch, Nicole felt calm.

Raegan quickly returned the money, saying, “Don't worry. Erick has a lot of houses and he doesn't use most of them. "It's really not a problem."

Despite Nicole's attempts to pay, Raegan did not accept the money, leaving Nicole with no choice but to stop trying.

Even before Nicole shared Austin's story and revealed who her biological father was, Raegan had already connected the dots.

Nicole didn't want to impose too much on Raegan, so she kept details about Austin's illness to a minimum.

Nicole later changed course of the conversation and asked, "How are things going between you and Mitchel?"

With a tight smile, Raegan quietly replied, "Honestly, I'm lost."

«What happened? Have you argued again? Nicole asked, piqued by curiosity.

Raegan shook her head, “Not exactly. "That's what baffles me."

Mitchel hadn't responded to her calls or texts, so Raegan had no idea what could have gone wrong this time.

Raegan even replayed their last encounter in her mind, searching for anything out of the ordinary. However, everything seemed normal and he couldn't determine the cause of Mitchel's change in attitude.

Was it because he had forgotten about the date the other night?

After some thought, Raegan dismissed that idea. She doubted Mitchel would be cold towards her just because of that.

But then why? Was it just a fleeting interest Mitchel had had in her and now he'd lost it? Raegan couldn't pinpoint the reason and began to feel depressed.

Seeing that Raegan looked upset, Nicole stayed quiet for a while before saying, "You know, I think the best way to get to the bottom of this is to talk to Mitchel directly." Makes sense, right? If you have a misunderstanding, clarify it. If not, at least you will understand where they stand."
