Chapter 458 Seizing her chance, Raegan shoved Henley's chest forcefully.

Caught off guard, Henley staggered backward a few steps.

Immediately, his gentle appearance disappeared, giving way to a cold look.

Raegan didn't pause to observe his reaction. She rushed to Mitchel's bed and took his hand, her voice filled with astonishment. "Mitchel, you're awake!" Mitchel's forehead was creased with annoyance at Henley's appearance. Yet, his expression softened at the sight of Raegan. "Don't worry. I'm here." Mitchel held Raegan's hand tightly, his eyes scanning the room determinedly. "Nobody could bully you." His stern look was aimed not just at Henley but at Luciana as well.

Particularly, the noticeable disappointment in Mitchel's eyes made Luciana tremble, worsening the already strained mother son bond.

Right then, Matteo had managed to break free from Henley's bodyguards and returned with backup.

With a sign, the bodyguards Matteo brought over proceeded to secure Henley.

The news of Mitchel's injury had been kept under wraps until it somehow leaked, prompting Alexis to seize the opportunity to acknowledge Henley's identity.

Henley's unexpected arrival took Matteo by surprise, leading to the turmoil in the hospital room.

Henley's bodyguards were formidable, clashing with those attempting to capture Henley.

Henley smirked. "Hey, don't make a fuss. Is this your way of greeting me?" Mitchel's gaze turned sharply intense. "I merely rest for a bit, and all kinds of troublemakers show up." He then instructed Matteo, "Get rid of all the irrelevant people." Two bodyguards escorted Luciana out first.

Despite her resistance, Luciana felt overpowered by Mitchel's stern look. She exited without making a scene.

Only Henley remained in Mitchel's ward, stubbornly refusing to leave. During a standoff between bodyguards, he chuckled. "Mitchel, I was merely chatting with Raegan.
