Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 83

? ? ? ? ?

Mitchel paused briefly and said, "Lauren was in the hospital at the time." How is it possible that she is behind this?

Raegan let out a derisive snort.

«See? Your promises are empty.

Mitchel's trust in Lauren was unconditional.

Even when she said Lauren might be involved, Mitchel's first reaction was not to dig deeper, but to jump to Lauren's defense.

«Raegan, I understand that it is hard to lose your grandmother. But don't give it too much importance. If it makes you feel better, I'll make sure Tessa learns a lesson.

Not wanting to hear another word from him, Raegan said contemptuously, "You can go now, Mr. Dixon."

What was I thinking? For him, his grandmother's death was nothing serious, while Lauren was the center of his universe.

How dare she think that one day she would replace Lauren and become Mitchel's only woman?

When Mitchel saw his sardonic smile, his heart skipped a beat. He felt like something important was slipping through his fingers.

Panicking, he pulled Raegan and hugged her tightly despite her refusal.

«Raegan, I promise you that I will do everything I can to win your heart back. Give me some time."

Raegan tried to get away. But realizing that it was useless, he finally gave up.

«Mitchel, let me go. “Divorce is best for both of us,” he said with a poker face.

"By no means. "I can't live without you," he replied without hesitation.

«I will never agree with divorce. "Don't even think about it."

Raegan was so livid that she burst out laughing.

So you want to play a good husband while having an affair with another woman? Is that what you want, Mr. Dixon?

Mitchel frowned. But just as he was about to speak, Raegan shoved him away.

«I tell you that I am determined with this divorce. For the sake of the Dixon Group, you'd better follow procedure with me.

Otherwise…” Raegan paused for a few seconds and continued with a serious face: “I will file for divorce!”

She was determined to end her marriage.

A divorce scandal involving the CEO of the Dixon Group would undoubtedly set the tabloids alight.

Mitchel's face darkened and he protested, "Raegan, don't you care about Kyler at all?"

It would be a huge blow to Kyler if he found out that he and Raegan were going to trial for divorce.

Raegan didn't want to disappoint Kyler, but she was counting on Mitchel not wanting to ruffle those feathers. I would pay to see who would commit first.

"You are the one who made me do it," she replied.

At that moment, Raegan seemed like a complete stranger to Mitchel.

Had she really become so cold?

Why did she hate him so much?

In any case, Mitchel had no intention of letting Raegan or her baby go. And he wouldn't let her have the fantasy that she could run away from him.

"OK. Try to find a law firm that will handle your divorce case.”

“What is that supposed to mean?”

"Nothing. I just want you to take care of yourself and the baby. That child will grow up to be a Dixon because there is zero chance. "I'm going to divorce you."

Raegan's heart sank.

How could I forget that Mitchel was a big shot here in Ardlens?

Sure, a high-profile divorce would be the talk of the town. But Mitchel could snap his fingers and make law firms walk away from his divorce case.

Thinking of this, Raegan fell into despair.

She assumed that Mitchel's resistance to divorce was not because he loved her. It was for the legacy.

Even if they divorced one day, she would not take the child.

Raegan clenched her fists and snapped, “So you're hanging on to this marriage just for the baby, huh?”

Mitchel fixed Raegan with a cold, penetrating gaze and sensed that something was wrong.

With a sneer, Raegon bit his lower lip and dropped a bombshell.

"If you don't agree with the divorce, I will have an abortion."

After saying these words, he silently reassured the little life inside him: “My baby, I would never abandon you. I just feel a lot of pain.

I need to get away from your father. You understand, right?

At that moment, Mitchel's eyes burned with fury and he bellowed.

“How dare you!”

«I won't let you control me anymore. "This is my baby, and you really have no choice here."

Raegan was determined to divorce Mitchel no matter what the cost. She was putting herself at risk of having her heart broken when she loved a man who always put her in the background. I didn't want to get hurt again.

Eyes burning with anger, Mitchel lunged at Raegan and grabbed her wrist.

«I already told you, Raegan. I'm not going to let you go.

Not now, never.

Outside the living room, with a basket of fruit in her hand, Lauren was shaking with rage.

It was one thing that his plan with Tessa to get rid of Raegan's baby had failed. But now, Mitchel knew about the baby.

It hadn't been easy keeping Mitchel by her side for three days. But when Mitchel found out Raegan was in the hospital, he couldn't wait to fly back.

Today, when she found out that Raegan was in the hospital, Lauren made a special trip here with the sole intention of getting under Raegan's skin.

However, he didn't expect to hear Mitchel and Raegan's conversation.

Why did Mitchel refuse to divorce Raegan?

As if that were not enough, Raegan seemed suspicious of her.

Lauren was boiling. In a fit of anger, she threw the basket of fruit into a nearby trash can and was about to storm out.

However, Jocelyn stopped her.

“Are you leaving so soon?”

«Why would I stay? To see Mitchel reject a divorce with that bitch? Lauren replied, her eyes red with jealousy and resentment.

“I want to tear that bitch to pieces, Jocelyn!”

Lauren didn't have to say "that bitch"'s name for Jocelyn to know.

«Calm down, my lady. I have an idea how to treat that woman.

Jocelyn assured him.

"Do you have it?"

«Do you remember Mitchel's stay at the Swynborough branch a few months ago? He came to visit you once or twice during that period.”

Lauren nodded. He remembered those hurried visits very well.

Mitchel was very busy. Therefore, he was always in a hurry and never stayed long.

Jocelyn's eyes glinted ominously, and she explained, "So if we had Mitchel get the wrong idea that Raegan got pregnant during that time, what do you think Mitchel's first thought would be?"

A satisfied smile spread across Lauren's face. Mitchel would no doubt think that Raegan had been unfaithful.

"Do you really think this will work?" he asked hesitantly.

«Today's medical technology can tell you the baby's hair color before it is even born. Will Mitchel believe it?

Jocelyn reassured her with a sly smile.

«All we have to do is plant a little doubt in Mitchel's mind. Even if they do a paternity test, it will take a while before the result comes out. Time will be on our side. Regardless of the outcome, what is there to lose?

Worst case scenario, Raegan would give birth to the baby.

But pregnancy was no walk in the park. A lot can happen in the long months leading up to childbirth. No one could guarantee a safe pregnancy for Raegan.

The two women exchanged knowing glances. It was as if they were reading the same twisted playbook.

Now feeling confident, Lauren pulled out her phone and dialed a number. It was time to ask one of his father's acquaintances for a favor.

«Hi, I'm Lauren. I know, I know. It's been a while since we last spoke. Listen, I'm at your family's hospital, and I was wondering if you could do me a little favor..."
