Chapter 337 Mitchel Never Liked Lauren 4 Mitchel's eyes emitted an unmistakable chill, devoid of any warmth when Lauren was mentioned.

If Lauren hadn't had Alexis backing her up back then, Mitchel would never have given Lauren the chance to make a comeback in Ardlens.® Rather than conducting herself with poise, Lauren made the choice to harm someone she shouldn't have. She deserved to suffer the consequences! The unexpected cruelty Mitchel displayed toward Lauren left Raegan astonished. After all, Lauren was his first love, right? When Lauren was thrown out of the

restaurant the last time, Raegan thought Mitchel was just trying to make a point. But her perception shifted when the audible snap of Lauren's wrist broke through the air.

Raegan looked at Mitchel curiously and asked, "Don't you feel sorry for doing that to Lauren? Isn't she your first love?" From the report Erick had gathered, Raegan had seen how Mitchel used to indulge Lauren.

Mitchel clarified in a low voice, "She's not." Raegan blinked in disbelief. Lauren was not his first love? Who was he trying to fool? Sporting a sly smile, Raegan asked, "So I can do anything to her?"

Mitchel cast a penetrating gaze her way. "What do you have in mind?" Raegan snorted unhappily. "Oh? Are you afraid that I will go too far?" Whether Mitchel was afraid that Raegan would go too far or not, Lauren certainly was.

Convinced that Mitchel would show mercy on her for old time's sake, Lauren turned her gaze toward him, her eyelashes fluttering in a plea.

In a desperate appeal, Lauren cried, "Mitchel, please... I'm innocent. That scheming woman framed me!" Kneeling on the ground with a broken hand and smeared makeup, Lauren resembled a fray dog.

Assuming Mitchel's silence meant that he was in a dilemma, Raegan flashed a

smile and said, "It's fine if you don't want to see her hurt." Anyway, Raegan knew that when her brother returned, Lauren wouldn't be able to escape his wrath. In that case, she wouldn't owe Mitchel a favor. If Mitchel was reluctant to let Lauren face the music, she was fine with it.

But to her shock, Raegan was met with a nonchalant response from Mitchel. "I don't want you to dirty your hands." As long as Raegan was clear about what she wanted, Mitchel would get someone else to do it for her. He was not willing to let her dirty her hands for unworthy people.

Raegan found herself taken aback, utterly unprepared for the words that escaped Mitchel's lips. If it were from someone else, the statement might

come off as pretentious.

But Mitchel, with his striking looks and composed demeanor, exuded sincerity.
