Chapter 517 You Don't Want The Child Either (Part Two) The surrounding silence was terrifying.

Raegan felt like she had plunged into a freezing hole, her whole body trembling, even her steps feeble. She leaned against the wall to steady herself before slowly saying, "Mitchel, we are not like this..." Upon hearing her words, Mitchel turned around and regarded her coldly.

"we?" he asked. "What relationship do we have?" Raegan paused, then said gently, "I love you and you..." "Discussing love after divorce seems absurd," he responded icily.

His voice was harsh and cutting. "If there was love, wouldn't we still be together?" His words crushed Raegan's fragile courage and confidence.

Mitchel's features hardened, and a sarcastic half-smile formed on his lips.

As the bodyguard approached, Raegan gestured frantically. "I'll leave on my own." Her voice broke with emotion, but she strived for composure, for his sake and her own.

Raegan tilted her head slightly to hold back the tears and said, "I'm sorry for bringing this up just after you
