Chapter 148

? ? ? ? ?

Mitchel was frustrated. He already knew Raegan didn't want to see him, but he still pursued her.

And what did he get in return?

First, Raegan directly told Matteo not to call her Mrs. Dixon anymore.

She then rejected Matteo's offer to take her and got into Henley's car.

And now, he denied that he knew him.

Did she really hate him that much?

The policeman looked at Raegan and then at Mitchel. He asked: "Do you know each other or not?"

Mitchel was so angry he wanted to tell Raegan off. But he held back.

His eyes turned dark. He put his arm tightly around Raegan's waist and said through clenched teeth, "She's my wife."

Raegan's jaw dropped at his words. He didn't react for a while.

When she came to her senses, she tried to push him away. But he hugged her even tighter. So he had no choice but to ask in a low voice, “What nonsense are you talking?”

The policeman remained thoughtful for a few seconds. Then she asked Raegan, "Is this man your husband?"

Raegan stared at Mitchel, thinking he must be crazy.

During their previous encounters, he had been indifferent towards her. He was arrogant like a peacock.

How could he now declare that she was his wife?

She didn't want to delay the police officer's work any longer, so she quickly explained: "He's my ex-husband."

Mitchel's handsome face turned gloomy. But he restrained himself and told the agent: “It's okay, agent. "I'll take care of the rest."

The policeman hesitated for a moment. When Mitchel realized this, he directly told the police officer his identification number and coldly said, "If she disappears, come find me."

What Mitchel did ended up convincing the police officer, who escorted the troublemaker.

As soon as the policeman left, all the villagers surrounded Mitchel, refusing to let him go.

After all, they had just found out he was Raegan's husband. And judging by his attire, he didn't look like a poor man.

However, Mitchel simply ignored the villagers blocking his way. He picked up Raegan and walked out.

But would those villagers who had finally seen a ray of hope let them go?

At that moment, Matteo entered. He already knew the situation in advance, so he went to get some money.

He announced loudly, “Everyone come here and register.”

The pile of money in Matteo's hands was like a magnet that attracted the villagers towards him. In the blink of an eye, they were already around Matteo.

As she watched this series of events, Raegan was too stunned to react.

He even forgot that he was still in Mitchel's arms.

She only came to her senses when Mitchel left her in the back seat. It turned out that he had taken her to the car without her realizing it.

Raegan tried to get out of the car, but Mitchel forcibly restrained her with his hands on either side of her waist.

Now she couldn't escape from him and felt uncomfortable all over.

«Mitchel, what are you doing? "Let me out."

“No,” Mitchel stubbornly refused. When he saw her continually struggling, he pulled her up and pressed her firmly against his lap.

From afar, anyone seeing them would think they were hugging each other at that moment.

But in reality, it was more like he was imprisoning her.

Raegan didn't want to get tangled up with Mitchel anymore, so she shakily said, "Mitchel, let go of me."

Mitchel stared at her, raised his eyebrows, and asked questioningly, "Don't you have anything to tell me?"

Raegan knew what he meant, but she didn't want to say anything to him.

He shook his head and said, "Nothing."

«First you lied to me. Then you divorced me and blocked my number.

I must say, you are really bold.”

Mitchel's voice became hoarse, mostly with rage.

He never wanted a divorce. But he was afraid that Raegan would hurt herself out of grief, so he was forced to agree. I just wanted to follow her wishes and start over.

The day they divorced, he was so depressed that he fell ill and was hospitalized. But she did not visit him even once.

At that moment, he wondered how she could be so ruthless.

He was still recovering when he learned from Jarrod that Raegan was at a bar. He immediately pulled out his IV and ran to the bar.

And there, he heard something.

She overheard Raegan telling Nicole that she had faked a suicide attempt to trick him into getting a divorce.

She even told him that she didn't care about him.

What Mitchel despised most in his life was deception, and Raegan knew it well.

At that moment, he felt all the blood rushing to his throat and he was on the verge of fainting. Fortunately, he managed to hold on until Jarrod pulled him out of the bar and took him back to the hospital.

That discovery disturbed Mitchel even in his dreams. When they woke him up in the middle of the night, he couldn't take it anymore. He texted Raegan: "Why did you lie to me?"

But the only response he got was a red exclamation point.

He tried to call her, but found that she had already blocked his number.

Raegan felt trapped in his firm grip, unable to breathe.

Mitchel, our divorce means everything is over between us. What's wrong with me deleting your contact information?

Isn't that normal?

Mitchel's eyes turned cold instantly.

«Who are you to say it's over?

You lied to me. “You tricked me into ending our marriage.”

His words infuriated Raegan.

«We are already divorced. What more do you want?

"Marry me again."

"That's impossible!"

Of course, Raegan flatly refused.

She made it clear that remarrying him was out of the question.

Mitchel was so furious that he shouted, “Have you forgotten that you lied to me? Do you expect me to just let it go?

"Why not? Isn't divorce the best option for both of us? Raegan replied. I thought Mitchel was being unreasonable.

Their relationship was so damaged that it could no longer be fixed, no matter how hard they tried.

So he believed that divorce was his best option.

He thought about it for a moment. She felt the need to clear things up, so she continued, “Mitchel, I repeat, we are already divorced. You don't have to worry about my affairs or my financial situation. I'll find a way to make money on my own. I don't need your help. Can you get out of my way now, please?

Mitchel stared at Raegan without saying anything. Then he suddenly reached out, pushed her onto the seat, and pressed his body against hers tightly. Before she could react, he fiercely bit her lips.
