Chapter 412 Stealing a Kiss The atmosphere grew increasingly thin.

I I Raegan found breathing somewhat challenging. Fortunately, Mitchel remained focused on her foot, oblivious to her flushed face.

Observing Mitchel's focused demeanor, Raegan suddenly realized this wasn't the first time he had applied medicine to her foot. In each instance, he handled it adeptly and effortlessly, devoid of any aversion.

Following the treatment, Mitchel targeted an acupoint on her ankle. He determined the sprain wasn't severe.

With proper care, it should improve by tomorrow.

Mitchel's unwavering gaze unsettled

I Raegan. "Are you finished?" she inquired.

+ "Yes." Mitchel secured a bandage I around her foot to safeguard it from dirt.

I I Mitchel should have released Raegal. I by now, yet he couldn't bring himself to do so. Despite his inclination for cleanliness, his principles seemed to wane in her presence. He desired to maintain his grasp on her foot.

Once Mitchel released his grip, Raegan promptly instructed, "Please proceed to cleanse your hands." Mitchel chuckled softly, finding it amusing that Raegan, rather than himself, expressed repulsion, despite his lack of concern.

occurrence. Fundamentally, her lack of trust in Mitchel prompted her suggestion.

Mitchel noticed the skepticism in Raegan's eyes, experiencing a twinge I of disappointment.

Raegan instructed him, "Please bring the blanket over here. If you approach too closely, I'll have to ask you to leave the bed." Compliantly, Mitchel fetched the blanket and positioned it on the bed.

Between them, Raegan positioned a lengthy pillow and instructed Mitchel to place his phone on the bedside table.

Mitchel adhered to all her directives.

However, Raegan remained somewhat uneasy and opted to leave a night light on. Once everything was arranged, she declared, "Let's sleep."

I just as Raegan was on the verge of closing her eyes, she observed that his shirt was fully unfastened, revealing his finely sculpted chest. Her complexion flushed from head to toe.
