He Seems To Care About The Baby Upon hearing the news, Mitchel's grip on the steering wheel tightened instantly.
Anxiously, he inquired, “What happened?" Jocelyn replied between sobs, gasping for air, "Lauren stood up, felt lightheaded, and
tumbled down the stairs." "Have you called for an ambulance?" "Yes, it's on the way." Then, a melodramatic wail from Lauren
filled the air.
"Ah, my head, my legs...
Where's Mitchel? I want to see him..." The feigning in her cry was unmistakable.
Raegan felt disgusted.
Mitchel, oblivious as ever, fell for this act again.
“Which hospital are you taking her to?” Mitchel inquired.
Listening to this, Raegan decided she had no reason to linger in the vehicle any longer.
It was better to exit on her own terms than to be forcibly ejected later.
She unbuckled her seatbelt, stepped out of the car, and proceeded to walk away.
Mitchel had broken her phone.
Now, she couldn't even book a train ticket on her phone.
Her only option was to hail a taxi to the train station first.
Behind her, the flashy sports car revved its engine audaciously and sped off.
Standing there, Raegan mustered a sarcastic smile.
As she had expected, she was left in the dust.
She could never outshine Lauren, but it didn’t matter anymore.
Having been abandoned multiple times in the past, she was now numb to this.
She didn't shed a tear.

Just then, a taxi pulled up.
Raegan reached for the door handle, preparing to enter.
Beep! Abruptly, a blaring horn erupted from behind, persisting in its clamor.
Turning around, Raegan saw Mitchel's sports car making its return.
Through the windshield, Mitchel's striking features were visible.
He rolled down the window and commanded, "Get in." A voice from behind snapped Raegan back to reality.

"Miss, are you getting in or not? If you're not, I'll take this taxi." Swiftly stepping aside, Raegan let the taxi go.
Once it departed, the sports car parked before her again.
Concerned about drawing attention, Raegan reluctantly climbed back into the car.
As she settled into her seat, Mitchel leaned in and probed, "Why did you walk away?” Raegan recoiled instinctively, gripping the
seat's edge as she looked at him through misty eyes.
Mitchel simply secured the seatbelt for her.

of monster?" Even without physical contact, his proximity seemed to make her alert. Raegan didn't dare to breathe loudly. Not wanting to anger him, she turned her face and said, "No.” Unwilling to waste more time, Mitchel reluctantly let her go. Suspicion clouding her voice, Raegan inquired, "Weren't you supposed to visit Lauren?" Mitchel shot

left her at a loss for a response. For a fleeting second, Raegan sensed genuine concern for their baby from him. But how could it be? She knew he had no affection for their baby. An uneasy silence filled the car until Mitchel finally said, "I told you I'd accompany you to pay respects to your grandmother. I won't break my promise.” Raegan was stunned. She might have believed his promise if it

The car smoothly continued its journey.
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lauren sipped on a bowl] of nutritious soup with glee.
Her scraped hands and knees were a small price to pay for her trick of summoning Mitchel over and making that bitch, Raegan,
miserable.
She had heard that Mitchel planned to go with Raegan to pay tribute to the latter's grandmother.
Lauren snorted.
How could she just watch them together without doing anything? She would never allow Raegan's wishes to be fulfilled.
So, her so-called accident came.

we have a visitor." Lauren immediately set aside the bowl she was holding and reclined on the bed, feigning illness. As Kyle, Mitchel's assistant, stepped into the room, Jocelyn cast a puzzled glance around and inquired, "Kyle, where's Mr. Dixon?" Clearing his throat, Kyle looked down and replied, "Mr. Dixon is occupied with other matters. He sent me to check on Miss Murray." Lauren,

say?” Kyle repeated himself, adding, "Mr. Dixon instructed me to find the finest doctor for you.” Lauren felt as if she'd been struck by lightning. She was stunned. After tumbling down the stairs, she hadn't anticipated Mitchel would only dispatch an assistant to visit her. Grabbing the bowl from the bedside, she hurled it at Kyle, shouting, "You're utterly worthless! Why
