Part 4: “Let’s get divorced!” She signed the divorce agreement calmly, hid her bump and went abroad overnight. The next day, the villa was sold, and the CEO broke down in an instant.
Raegan took a deep breath and said, “Let’s divorce.”
“What do you mean?”
Mitchel’s voice was cold, and his handsome face changed immediately.
“I want to move into my own place. After all, we will be strangers soon.”
Raegan forced a smile, but her heart was aching as if someone was tearing it apart bit by bit.
“We will be strangers?”
Mitchel smiled coldly. “Raegan, what do you think our relationship is now?”
His questioning left Raegan stunned for a moment.
Mitchel had made it very clear to her from the very beginning. This facade of their marriage had happened by mutual agreement. There was no love. In the eyes of others, they were nothing more than just a superior and a subordinate.
Mitchel was quite the catch in Ardlens. Many young ladies longed for his love and were even willing to throw themselves at him.
His question just now reminded her of that fact. Was he afraid that she wouldn’t let him go that easily? If that was the case, he couldn’t be more wrong…
After biting her lower lip to conceal her bitterness, Raegan said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Dixon. I was giving it too much thought. Anyway, please leave me alone from now on. You don’t have to come here again.”
After saying that, Raegan couldn’t help but burst into tears.
How could she not be sad when she was cutting ties with the man she had loved for a decade? It was such a long time.
Regardless of how difficult it was, she knew it was time to let go.
It was high time she stopped being a fool.
Strangely, the light in the corridor began flickering.
The deathly stare Mitchel was giving Raegan right now made the atmosphere seem like the moment before an attack in a horror movie.
Although he understood that Raegan sometimes could throw a tantrum, he felt that she had just crossed the line now.
His eyes shone like blazing torches at this moment. But when he saw the tears in her eyes, the rage inside him extinguished in an instant. He said in a low voice, “If this is about what happened between you and Tessa, I…”
“No, this isn’t about her. Mr. Dixon, please leave now.”
A lot of things happened between them. And the incident with Tessa didn’t come close to any.
Raegan felt exhausted. She passed by Mitchel and was about to open the door.
Yet, Mitchel was displeased with her stubbornness.
He loosened his tie irritably. He then took a step forward and grabbed her wrist.
“Stop this, will you?”
A second later, he put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into his arms.
He instantly realized that she was burning up like someone who had been set on fire.
“You have a fever?”
Raegan felt dizzy. She rested her head on his chest weakly.
This made the whole situation complicated.
Reagan was slow to catch that. When she finally realized that her body was too close to his, she put her hands against his chest and tried to pull back.
Before she could escape, Mitchel pulled her back and held her by the waist. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, “Where do you think you are going?”
The light flickered again. Out of the blue, Mitchel lifted her up.
He then headed for the elevator.
In a daze, Raegan asked softly, “What are you doing?”
“What does it look like I am doing?” Mitchel remarked. “Taking you to the hospital, of course.”
“No way!” Raegan cried out in surprise and seemed to regain more strength.
Mitchel might find out about her condition if they went to the hospital.
Raegan struggled to get out of Mitchel’s arms. However, his tight grip made her efforts fruitless.
“Don’t be so stubborn. You are sick, so you must see the doctor,” Mitchel said firmly.
He walked to the elevator with her in his arms. At this moment, Raegan’s heart was thumping so hard that it could jump out of her chest. She flailed in protest.
“Put me down! I don’t want to go to the hospital!”
