In absolute disbelief, Raegan gasped.
"Henley, have you lost your damn mind?” With a serene smile, Henley replied, "Raegan, I want to keep you by my side all the

"I've remarried Mitchel." Abruptly, Henley hit the brakes.

With bloodshot eyes, Henley turned to Raegan, demanding, “What did you just say?" Raegan, clutching her throbbing head,
revealed, "Henley, I remarried Mitchel yesterday.
He's bound to come looking for me.” Silence engulfed the car.
The gentleness on Henley’s face dissolved into a dark shadow.
He fixed his gaze on her, questioning, "Why?" Raegan, intimidated by his demeanor, attempted to stay composed.
"He's the father of my child.
He'll definitely come looking for me." Henley's face grew icy.
He grasped her chin abruptly, his tone bitter, "He caused you so much pain, and you lost a child.

She feared he might actually follow through.
No way! She couldn't let him take her! As Henley restarted the car, Raegan suddenly clutched her stomach, crying out in pain,
"Ah! My stomach! Stop the car!" Henley glanced at her, assessing the sincerity of her plea.
“Henley, it hurts...
Am I dying?" Raegan contorted with pain on the seat.
