Drama Queen The shop assistant's hand flew to her mouth as her eyes widened in surprise.
She then eyed Lauren.
The nerve of side chicks these days! This woman was holding someone else's husband, yet she was so rude to the real wife.
How shameless of her! Lauren's face turned pale with embarrassment when she saw the look the shop assistant was giving her
now.
"You!" "What? Did I say anything wrong?” With regal grace, Raegan walked to the rest area and sat down.
She then added, "If you have got anything to say, just say it.” The VIP lounge of the jewelry store was very private.
The shop assistant left them alone after serving two cups of coffee.
Suppressing her anger, Lauren sat down again.
She set the gift bag on the table and said softly, “Guess what gift Mitchel got me?” "Your attempt is to show off what my husband
spoils you? If so, I'm not interested.” The word "husband" made Lauren's face a little cold.
But the next second, she smiled again.
She took out a red velvet box from the gift bag and placed it on the table.
"Stop acting nonchalant, Raegan.
Are you sure you don't want to see the ring he bought me?” Lauren asked, folding her hands on her knees.
Raegan was stunned and couldn't believe it.
Was the gift Mitchel gave Lauren a ring? Despite the lack of response, Lauren took out the ring and put it on gently.
She then raised her hand and shook her fingers.
“Isn't it so beautiful?” The diamond glistened under the dazzling light.
It was inlaid with a very rare blue diamond.
Raegan had once heard that such a diamond was called Blue Tears, which was priceless.

Raegan's knuckles turned white as she clutched the shopping bag in her hand.
The fingernails on her other hand sank into her palm and it began to bleed a little.
However, she didn't feel any pain.
Calm down, Raegan! She told herself, expelling a breath slowly.
It was a trap.
Lauren must want her to fly off the handle so she would be painted as the hostile one.

Yet, no matter how hard she tried to stay calm, there was still a boulder in her gut.
She couldn't breathe properly.
Lauren smiled sweetly and said, “I think Mitchel bought this diamond ring because he wants to propose to me.
He asked you to wait here because he wants you to witness our happy moment.
Oh, I can't wait! Do you know that he flew to Swynborough many times in the past two years just to see me? I was so stupid to
have let such a good man go.

had dreamy eyes as she remarked. She continued, “If I hadn't gone abroad in a fit of pique, how would Mitchel have married someone else on a whim just to please his grandfather? I know he only did that to get back at me. Now that I'm not feeling well, he’s so worried about me.” "That's impossible!" Raegan blurted out with a pale face. Raegan found it hard to believe that her two-year marriage to Mitchel happened just because he wanted to get back at Lauren. If it was true, what did that make her? A pawn in their

it up. Maybe Lauren was telling the truth. Mitchel must have felt she was the most suitable because he could easily dominate her. Oh, what a fool she had been! Seeing Raegan’s pale face, Lauren knew was making headway now. Lauren reached out and held Raegan's hand. The smile on her face became softer. "Raegan, I know it's hard to accept the truth, but my conscience has been pricking me for far too long. I felt that

continued sympathetically, "This card contains five million dollars.
It's compensation from me and Mitchel.
1 hope you won't hold a grudge against us and forget everything about the Dixon family.” This was like a slap in the face for
Raegan.
Raegan couldn't deny that Lauren defeated her now.
But the game was rigged against her from the onset! Memories came flooding into her mind like a tidal wave of horror.
In the past two years, Mitchel went on several business trips to Swynborough.
He spent many days on each occasion.
No matter how hard she begged, he refused to take her with him.

was Matteo who handed it to her before she got the marriage certificate. It appeared Matteo bought the ring on Mitchel’'s orders. But even so, Raegan had cherished the ring so much that she never took it off even when she was taking a shower. Now, it dawned on

than having her leg crushed by a truck. Mitchel was so cruel. Why did he hurt her in this way? Raegan felt suffocated. Unwilling to listen to any more of this, she leaped to her feet with the shopping bag in her hand. "Aren't you gonna wait for Mitchel to get back?" Lauren also stood up. Raegan suppressed the surging pain in her heart and sneered, “Lauren, you have gotten what
