Ninety-nine White Roses In an instant, Mitchel bent over and placed Raegan in the back seat.
Before the door could click shut, he leaned in, pinched her chin, and planted a passionate kiss on her tender lips.
Raegan's fingers clutched his shirt, and one button broke, but Mitchel didn't seem to mind it.
Raegan tried to voice her anger, but he silenced her by capturing the tip of her tongue in a passionate kiss, making Raegan
shiver uncontrollably.
When Mitchel finally released her, Raegan was left fuming.
She raised her hand to hit him, but he effortlessly held her hand, his gaze penetrating hers.
"Like I said, only my wife could hit me.
Do you want to come back to my side and be my wife?” Hearing his words, Raegan didn’t want to hit him anymore.
Mitchel knew her weaknesses and got a hang of dealing with her.
Anger welled up, but so did a sense of helplessness.
Raegan despised the involvement with him.
In the past, Mitchel’s presence served as her light.
She had clung to him just like someone holding a light in the dark.
However, that light hurt her mercilessly.
Seemingly a stress response, she couldn't help resisting his advances since it would give birth to expectations in her.
Fear gnawed at her whenever she thought about the suffering expectations would likely bring.
No one knew what she was avoiding, let alone her fears.
Desperation edged into her voice as she pleaded, "Mitchel, what can I do to stop you from pestering me? Do you just want to
sleep with me? Will you let go of me after we have had sex?” Mitchel's response was cold, his eyes devoid of warmth.
"What do you mean?” "What do you think I'm implying?" Raegan met his gaze, tears welling up.

"Don't you just want me for sex?" “What?” "Can you promise to leave me alone after? If so, I...” Mitchel sneered and cut her off,
"You want to give yourself to me for free?" The humiliation in his words wasn't lost on her.
His words cut deep, and Raegan clenched her fists, trembling with sadness.
However, she managed to pull herself together for the sake of getting away from his pestering.
"You have to give me a guarantee...” Before she could finish, Mitchel abruptly held her in his embrace, his chin against her soft
hair.
In a low voice, he said, "Can't you just be obedient to me? I'm a little upset." The sudden shift in his demeanor caught Raegan off
guard.

She couldn't help but wonder why he was upset.
He ought to know there was nothing between her and Hector if he knew her current occupation as a tutor.
He didn't have to get upset just because Hector had driven her here.
Moreover, they had divorced and she was no longer his wife.
But Mitchel was unreasonable.
Raegan didn’t want to talk to him anymore.

excuse to get away from Mitchel. Therefore, she walked toward Henley without hesitation. However, Mitchel suddenly grabbed her hand firmly, a frown etched on his face. He remained silent, but his firm grip on her wrist and the complicated expression spoke volumes. Raegan broke his hand little by little, just like he once did, and asserted, “Mr. Dixon, since we are divorced, we are strangers. Please stop doing this.” Two steps away, Henley unexpectedly grabbed her hand. Raegan stiffened and instinctively attempted to pull away. However, Henley held her hand tightly, his fingers intertwining with hers. Leaning in, he whispered, “Don't you want to

With a subtle nod at Mitchel, Henley led her away.
Raegan couldn't recollect how she made it home.
Her mind was a blank canvas.
Henley handed her the bouquet of roses and said, "Get some rest.
Call me if you need anything.” Raegan barely registered Henley's words.
