Pretend To Be My Girlfriend Raegan was still in shock when Mitchel abruptly ended the call.
Mitchel gave Raegan a cold, hard stare and said, "Funny coincidence.
I was just about to go to the very place where he asked you to go." He then picked her up all of a sudden, catching her off guard.
Raegan's face hit his chest and rebounded, leaving her startled.
Instinctively, she wrapped her arms around his neck.
She was embarrassed when sensing the gaze of people passing by.
So, she released her grip, grasped the button of his suit, and whispered, "Please, put me down." "I'm in a rush, and you walk
very slowly,” Mitchel retorted.
Raegan was taken aback.
"If you are in a hurry, go about your business.
I don't need you to give me a ride.” Ignoring her words, Mitchel carried her to the parking lot and unceremoniously positioned her
in the passenger seat, buckling her in.
Raegan didn't want to go with him.
She unbuckled her seatbelt and tried to open the door, but it was locked.
Turning to Mitchel, she pleaded, “Could you please unlock the door?” Mitchel glanced at her and asked, “Aren't you supposed to
be going on a date?" Before Raegan could respond, Mitchel's eyes turned cold, and he added, "Let me drive you so you can get
to your date faster." His cold demeanor made Raegan feel as though she was about to be punished.
She didn't dare to argue.
Mitchel rested one hand on the steering wheel but didn't start the car.
He asked, “If I hadn't shown up today, were you planning to tell Kyler about our divorce?" Raegan remained silent.
Even though she hadn't vocalized her intentions, she did think about it.

Mitchel sneered, "You are quite something, Raegan.
To be with another man, you don't care about Kyler's condition." Raegan, however, couldn't help but feel that Kyler was doing
much better than Mitchel was making it seem.
She responded, “Are you planning to hide it from Kyler forever? He hadn't shown any signs of being unhappy when] asked him
whatif you and [broke up...” With each word Raegan uttered, the light In Mitchel’s eyes seemed to fade.
Finally, he exploded.

Mitchel angrily threw some reports against the car's central control console.
He said in a frustrated tone, "Take a look at these!" Mitchel's frustration was palpable.
He had used such force when throwing the reports that two pieces of paper scraped Raegan's face.
Raegan felt a little pain when the sharp edge of the paper scraped a red mark on her face.
Though she said nothing, she picked up the reports and began to read.
The report read, "Premature heart valve contractions...
Multiple organs showing signs of decline...” Many of the medical terms were beyond her comprehension, but she could discern

been too harsh in his words. Seeing the red marks on her face scraped by the paper, Mitchell felt a pang of distress. He

Did she honestly think he would hit her? Regardless of how upset he had ever been, he never raised a hand against her. How could she possibly think he would resort to violence? All of a sudden, Mitchel felt heartbroken. The next moment, Raegan said, "I promise I won't tell him about our divorce, but I don’t want to act like an affectionate couple with you in front of him. So, the next time you and | visit him, let's go separately on different days to avoid any awkwardness, okay?" A heavy silence filled the car. Mitchel clenched the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and his lips pressed into a thin line. Well... She didn't want to be around

The sudden start of the car drained the color from her ruddy face.
She was so uncomfortable that her breathing became erratic.
"Could you please slow down?" It appeared that Mitchel didn't hear her.
His gaze remained fixed ahead, an aura of cold determination enveloping him.
However, he had slowed down a bit.
Mitchel steered the car onto a less-traveled route.
Although he didn't exceed the speed limit, the forceful acceleration left Raegan queasy and lightheaded.
Raegan wanted to ask why he was in such a rush, but the nausea from motion sickness plagued her every thought.
She closed her eyes and leaned back, hoping it would alleviate her discomfort.

Henley asked, “Raegan, where are you?” Raegan's voice quivered as she weakly replied, “I should be there soon.” Henley refrained from saying more and just said, “Alright, I'll wait for you by the entrance."
