Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Mitchel's Promise Before entering the room, Mitchel stopped and cast a cold glance at the roses on the tea table.
"Do you like those flowers?" Raegan recalled that Mitchel had never sent flowers to anyone.
Not even once.
Unsure of what to say, Raegan murmured, "It depends.” As soon as she said those words, she wished she could take them
back.
Just as she had expected, Mitchel's expression darkened.
Raegan had not intended to annoy him, but she did so mindlessly.
In college, a young man followed her wherever she went and secretly slipped red roses into her books or school bag.
For a while, the roses unnerved her and stirred unpleasant memories.
That was the reason why she said that.

Mitchel stretched out and, suddenly, unwrapped the bouquet of roses under her back.
The bouquet burst open.
Some flowers landed on the table, while others scattered across the floor.
Raegan doubted that the tea table would be able to support their weight.

that only Mitchel's agreement to end their relationship could truly free her from their entangled lives. As Mitchel had said, no one else could change his decision but him. After a pause, Raegan asked, “You really mean that, don't you?" Mitchel glanced

change my mind someday? What would you do then?" Raegan was at a loss for words. This promise held no legal weight. As Mitchel pointed out, if he changed his mind, she was powerless to do anything, let alone seek justice. Deep down, she clung to this promise to comfort herself. Perhaps driven by fear of his interference in her life, she was willing to take the risk. "You know the outcome is unpredictable, right? Are you sure you want to bet on it?” Mitchel calmly asked. Raegan did not dwell on it
