Chapter 355 No Dignity Katie left the corner and was about to head for the exit when she ran into Luciana who was on her way to visit Mitchel.

Mitchel didn't tell others about his injuries.

Sometime later, Katie spotted Matteo in the hospital. Matteo tried to hide Mitchel's injuries from her but she pressed for an answer. In the end, Matteo claimed Mitchel got injured because of some hooligans.

Katie then informed Luciana about this, which was why Luciana had rushed here immediately.

Luciana's expression was calm, but the white-knuckled grip she had on the

food box she held belied the worry coursing through her. Some of that worry eased when she saw Katie.

"Katie, how is Mitchel?" she asked, her anxiety palpable in her voice.

Katie's expression was calm, not a single hint of her earlier breakdown on her face. She gently held Luciana's arm and reassured Luciana, "Don't worry.

Mitchel is fine." Luciana waved the food box in her hand and said, "I want to see him." In actuality, Luciana was asking for Katie's opinion.

Ever since Mitchel nearly drowned in the river when looking for Raegan five years ago, Luciana had become even more anxious about his well-being.

Apart from spending more time with Mitchel, Luciana went to church and

prayed for his safety.

As the years went by without any updates regarding Raegan's whereabouts after the car incident, Luciana got more nervous and neurotic over Mitchel's dejected state.

Whenever she got anxious, it was Katie who comforted her with words of assurance. Katie was the one who had been accompanying Luciana to church.

As a result, Luciana trusted Katie more than any other person and never doubted her words.

Moreover, after Raegan's disappearance following the car incident, Luciana tried to console Mitchel. Yet, her words stung Mitchel, which rendered Mitchel resist seeing Luciana, not wanting to hear words of the possibility of Raegan having died.

Since then, their bond turned weaker.

Left with no choice, Luciana tended to

care for Mitchel through Katie.

Katie smiled and took the food box from Luciana. "Mitchel just finished eating the meal I brought. I'm afraid he won't be able to eat anything else tonight. Well, I'm still hungry. Do you mind me having the delicious food you had prepared?" Luciana nodded, feeling grateful for Katie's kind words. She would be upset if Mitchel once again resisted the food she made for him.

"Luciana, if you don't mind, I can help you deliver the food you make for Mitchel tomorrow," Katie added.

Luciana smiled and said, "Okay." Then, Katie linked her arms with Luciana's and murmured, "Mitchel is sleeping right now. Better not disturb him at the moment. Let's go on a walk

Right now, allow me to take a stroll with you." The assumption Katie and Mitchel got along well brought a smile to Luciana's face.

"Alright then." Luciana beamed.

A coy smile curved Katie's lips and she added in an affectionate tone, "To
