Cruel To Her The expression on Mitchel's face froze for a moment.
It turned out that today was Lauren's birthday.
He always remembered her birthday.
But this year, he had forgotten it for the first time.
A few years ago, Mitchel witnessed something disgusting, making him lose his mind.
Before he knew it, he was already submerged in a freezing cold lake.
If it weren't for Lauren's desperate efforts to save him, he would have died long ago.
And that day was her birthday.
That was why her birthday was one of his most unforgettable days.
Since then, Lauren's birthday had become one of Mitchel's top priorities.
No matter how busy he was, he always celebrated it with her.
At this moment, Lauren reached out and gently tugged at Mitchel’s sleeve.
And when he didn't pull away, she felt relieved.
She looked at him pitifully and said, "Mitchel, I've been waiting for you since three o'clock." Winter was almost approaching, so it
was already cold now.
Lauren wore thin clothes, and her nose turned red from the cold.
She looked vulnerable and pitiful.
Mitchel withdrew his hand.
His brows furrowed tightly, and he said in a cold and displeased voice, "Stop being silly.” Although he spoke in a disapproving
tone, Lauren felt a touch of sweetness in his words.
For her, his words meant he was worried about her.

And this made her feel like it was worth staying out in the cold for so long.
She glanced at Raegan in the car complacently, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
Lauren assumed Raegan must have done something to gain Mitchel's sympathy and deliberately asked him to visit her
grandmother's grave together.
But Lauren believed that Raegan's efforts were futile.
After all, today was her birthday, and she knew that Mitchel would definitely celebrate with her on this special day.
Jocelyn, standing nearby, also spoke up.
"Mr.
Dixon, Miss Murray got up at five this morning and baked a birthday cake for herself.
She wanted to eat it with you.” Mitchel looked at Jocelyn with a frown.
"And you just let her do such a stupid thing?” Mitchel spoke in a voice devoid of emotion, and it made Jocelyn shudder
involuntarily.
Mitchel had feelings for Lauren, not for her.
Jocelyn was worried that she might inadvertently touch a sensitive spot and cause trouble.
Jocelyn hastened to explain for herself, "Mr.

Dixon, I tried to convince Miss Murray not...” But before she could finish her words, Lauren interrupted, "Mitchel, don't blame
Jocelyn.
It's not her fault.
Every year, we always celebrate my birthday together, right?" After saying this, Lauren timidly glanced behind Mitchel.
Mitchel turned around, following her gaze.
Then he saw Raegan standing behind him quietly.

urge to explain to Raegan what Lauren had said, but he couldn't find the right words to say. After all, he knew very well that Lauren was right. Indeed, he had promised to spare a part of his day to celebrate Lauren's birthday with her.

face, it was as if she was bullied. Unfortunately, in Raegan's eyes, her performance fell flat. Of course, Lauren was not the only one capable of displeasing people by putting on an act. Raegan also had her own ways of doing it. Approaching Mitchel gracefully, Raegan extended her hand and delicately intertwined her fingers with his, gazing up at him. "| thought we were going home." Raegan's voice was soft. She was like a gentle and sweet kitten. The expression on Lauren's face instantly changed upon hearing this. She instinctively turned her gaze to Mitchel. Mitchel's gaze became meaningful. Obviously, he liked it when Raegan talked this way. Panic surged in Lauren's heart. She thought Raegan was seducing Mitchel. If she could, she wanted to tear Raegan apart right now. However, she couldn't lose

her best to put on a pitiful look and said softly, "Mitchel, you will celebrate my birthday with me, right?” Lauren didn't need to remind Mitchel what her birthday meant to him. She was confident that he would celebrate her birthday with her. "Lauren, since it's your birthday today, you can tell Kyle anything you want. He will be at your service twenty-four hours a day." "Mitchel, what do you mean by that?” Lauren asked, looking at Mitchel in disbelief. She

All I want is for you to celebrate my birthday with me." As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, making her look even more
pitiful.
However, Mitchel remained unmoved.
"Lauren, I've already made everything clear to you in the hospital." After saying this, he directly took Raegan's hand and walked
toward the car.
Raegan's hand was cold when she got out of the car.
But now that Mitchel was holding it, she felt warm.
Suddenly, a loud thud sounded behind them.
"Ah! My lady, how did you fall?” Jocelyn cried in panic, and Lauren wailed in pain.
Mitchel paused for a moment.

looking back. When Lauren saw that Mitchel was about to get in the car, her face turned deathly pale. She cried even harder, sounding heartbreaking. “Mitchel, it hurts so much. Please, don't leave me. My knee hurts. Mitchel, you can't abandon me. It’s my birthday.” This time, Lauren kept reminding Mitchel of her birthday, wanting Mitchel to recall the significance of her birthday and stay with her. It was a promise she had

to see the reluctance on Mitchel's face. She only stared into his eyes and said, "Didn't you say you want to spend a good time with me?" If Mitchel left her now for Lauren's sake, he would only do the same in the future. Then, she would never get rid of Lauren in her life. She would always live under Lauren's shadow. Mitchel lowered his gaze and said softly, “Okay.” Then he got in the car without hesitation. However,
