Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 88

? ? ? ? ?

There was an unspoken threat in Tessa's words.

Meanwhile, a glint of malice flashed in Lauren's eyes. It was then that he realized that Tessa was of no use to him.

At that moment, Jocelyn jumped up and slashed at Tessa.

«Miss Lloyd, that is not true. Did he explicitly ask you to work against Raegan?

No, he simply shared his suspicions about Raegan's pregnancy because he considered her a close friend. "He never asked you to harm anyone, especially a child who was not yet born."

Hearing this, Tessa was shocked. It seemed like Lauren had never said those words clearly.

However, it made her think. Hadn't Lauren's constant complaints and insinuations laid the foundation for her animosity toward Raegan?

“Don't say that, Jocelyn,” Lauren interjected.

"I've always considered Tessa to be family, and I feel like it's my duty to help her when she's going through a tough time."

After saying these words, Lauren winked at Jocelyn, who entered for a moment. When Jocelyn returned, she was carrying several wads of bills.

Lauren grabbed Tessa's hand and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you. Mitchel has made it clear that anyone who helps you is going against the Dixon Group. But I feel terrible seeing you like this. Here you have 6@ thousand dollars. It should help you get by for now.

The truth is, I've invested most of my money in handbags over the years. But I'll find a way to send you more, I promise."

Tessa's face drained of color when she heard the amount. Sixty thousand dollars wouldn't even cover her and her mother's expenses in their home country, much less the fees to go abroad.

"I also learned from a friend who works at the nursing home that Raegan's grandmother had been in bad shape for quite some time."

Lauren continued.

"But I never thought Raegan would go so far as to blame you for her grandmother's death and even pressure Mitchel to come after you."

As she said this, Lauren made a show of wiping away the tears that had gathered in the corner of her eyes.

“Tessa, I really want to help you.

But now, Mitchel is so obsessed with Raegan that he won't listen to anyone else. I have to say that we have underestimated her.

Tessa's eyes filled with tears. And when he spoke, his voice was full of hate.

"You're right. It's all because of that bitch.

If she hadn't come into the picture, I wouldn't be in this mess. As long as I am around, she will not know peace.

Lauren feigned concern.

«Tessa, I advise you not to provoke her again.

Look what you've already lost because of him.

Lauren's words were a slap in Tessa's face and a reminder of everything she had lost. Even his reputation had gone down the drain.

In other words, he now had nothing to lose.

Tessa gritted her teeth and swore, "I'll make sure that bitch regrets every moment of her life!"

After saying these words, Tessa took the money and headed towards the door.

A sinister smile spread across Lauren's face. Before Tessa walked out the door, Lauren added, "Tessa, even if I can't support you with money, remember that I'm always on your side."

“Thank you, Lauren,” Tessa responded, feeling a warmth spread through her.

Once the door closed behind Tessa, Jocelyn let out a sigh of relief and turned to Lauren.

"Milady, you have done very well."

The two shared a sly, knowing smile. They were like two peas in a manipulative pod.

Lauren's words had been deliberately said to irritate Tessa and turn her against Raegan again.

Now, Tessa was like a cornered animal with no way out. Sooner or later, he was bound to do something reckless.

All they had to do was sit back and enjoy the chaos that was sure to break loose.

Lauren's eyes became venomous like those of a snake stalking its prey. He couldn't help but think how lovely it would be if Tessa could kill Raegan and the baby she was carrying.

After all, Lauren had no interest in taking care of Raegan herself, fearing she would be caught by Mitchel. Now, Lauren was immersed in her fantasies as Mitchel's loving wife.

At Serenity Village, Raegan was isolated from the outside world. Mitchel had smashed his phone, so he had no idea if he had confronted Henley or not.

Henley had been her knight in shining armor more than once. Thinking that her life and career could end because of her left her tied hand and foot.

So she stayed up all night, fearing that Mitchel might attack Henley.

The maid noticed that Raegan had less appetite and kept persuading her to eat more. Within a few days, Raegan had lost notable weight.

Unable to bear the anxiety any longer, Raegan finally asked the maid, "Could I borrow your phone for a moment?"

The maid hesitated. Mitchel had made it clear that Raegan couldn't go out or contact anyone.

But since Raegan had been in a bad mood for the past two days, the maid thought a call wouldn't hurt, especially since it might cheer her up.

With that, he handed her the phone and retreated to the kitchen.

Raegan couldn't remember Henley's number, but Nicole's was burned into her memory. After chatting with Nicole, who was in the hospital with her father, Raegan was relieved to hear that Henley was okay.

Nicole had just learned of the death of Raegan's grandmother and the news had hit her hard. She was already dealing with her father's illness, and this added another layer of sadness.

“Raegan, why didn't you tell me? Are we still best friends?

Raegan bit her lower lip and replied, “I'm sorry, Nicole. "It happened so quickly that I didn't dare to inform anyone."

Nicole sighed. She couldn't stay mad at Raegan.

«Look, what kills me is the idea of ​​you going through all this alone. I should have been there with you. It hurts to even think about it.

Raegan nodded.

"I know".

They had been friends for years. I understood what Nicole meant.

After the call, Raegan felt much better. The maid served him a bowl of soup, which he finished. Then he went up to rest.

Later, as the sky darkened, Mitchel arrived after two days of absence.

He was obviously in a bad mood. Without saying a word, he went up to the second floor.

He kicked open the bedroom door.

Raegan jumped. Before she could collect her thoughts, he pulled her by the collar of her shirt and pulled her out of bed.

Raegan almost fell to the ground, so she grabbed Mitchel's hand and blurted out, "What's wrong with you?"

Mitchel looked at her, his face dark and grim. Raegan felt a chill run down her spine.

“How dare you lie to me, Raegan!”

Raegan's heart skipped a beat. She wondered if Mitchel had found out the baby was his.

He quickly masked his panic and retorted, “What are you talking about?”

In response, Mitchel fired a bunch of photos at him.

The photos showed Henley and Raegan in the hospital, including images from the obstetrics and gynecology department. Everything that happened was captured by surveillance cameras.

According to Matteo's investigation, doctors at the hospital had also confirmed that Henley accompanied his wife to prenatal check-ups.

The wife in question was Raegan.

When Mitchel found out, he felt like he was thrown into the abyss.

Hadn't he treated Raegan well enough?

How could she betray him like that?

Mitchel gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you have to say in your defense now?"

Raegan's face turned as white as a sheet and she hurried to explain, "Mitchel, you've got it all wrong. Let me explain to you…”

"OK. Continue. Aren't you the one in the photos?

Raegan took a deep breath and admitted, “Yes, it's me. But it was just a coincidence..."

She couldn't deny that the woman in the video was her. However, it was purely a coincidence that Henley had taken her to the hospital twice.

"Coincidence?" Mitchel let out a disdainful laugh.

"Such a coincidence that doctors assume you are husband and wife?"

Despite struggling to find the right words, Raegan desperately explained, "The doctor just misinterpreted the situation."

"Can you believe it yourself?" Mitchel, without even looking at her, grabbed Raegan by the hand and started down the stairs.

Uneasy, Raegan squirmed in his grasp and asked in a trembling voice, “Where are you taking me?”

Mitchel paused and stared at her with an icy gaze.

«I'm taking you to the hospital. You will get rid of this bastard.
