Chapter 176

? ? ? ? ?

Henley wasn't born yesterday to not know what it meant to bathe in a woman's house.

He looked at Raegan's naked face. She had radiant skin, a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and rosy lips. She was still very pretty, even without makeup.

When the warm light illuminated her, he could see the fine hair on her delicate face. That made her more beautiful in his eyes.

No normal man would not be enchanted by Raegan's beauty. And Henley was no exception. After staring at Raegan for a while, he felt his lower abdomen tighten. I was excited.

His deep eyes fixed on her as he asked, "Is it right for you now?"

The way Henley was staring at her made Raegan feel a little uncomfortable. He looked away and murmured, "I'm sorry, Henley."

He had to admit that at first he wanted to take advantage of him.

But when he thought about it, he immediately realized that it was wrong.

After all, it was his own problem. She should figure it out herself.

With this realization, Raegan stood up and said, "I'll get you a towel."

But when she turned around, Henley grabbed her wrist. She looked at him confused, only to see his eyes shining. He said, "Let me help you."

When Henley saw the confusion on Raegan's face, the corners of her lips curled into a smile. He added calmly, "I'm your boyfriend, right?"

Raegan wasn't sure if he was just imagining things, but she thought she heard some hint in his voice.

Before Raegan could respond, Henley stood up and took off his coat.

Then he began to unbutton his shirt.

"I'm going to take a shower."

While Henley was in the bathroom, the doorbell rang.

Raegan walked to the door and looked through the peephole. It was Mitchel, who was outside. He hesitated a little to open the door.

This time, Mitchel called directly.

Raegan jumped. What would happen if it bothered your neighbors? Thinking about it, he quickly opened the door.

As soon as he opened it, Mitchel's eyes fell directly on Raegan's face.

Her cheeks were rosy and tender. She must have just showered because her hair was still wet. She was already in her nightgown.

It had only been a few days since Mitchell had seen Raegan, but he already missed her dearly. I felt like I hadn't seen her in months.

But what about her? Did you miss him?

In fact, she had happily gone shopping with her friends. When he ran into her at the mall, she just ignored him. He treated him like a stranger.

Now that he was in front of her at the door of her apartment, he still felt her strong indifference.

His heart hurt. It was as if thousands of needles were pricking him.

Mitchel didn't expect that when Raegan said she wanted to end their relationship, she meant it. It wasn't just a tantrum.

He did not hesitate to draw a clear line.

Thinking of this, Mitchel clenched his fists tightly. He said quietly, “I didn't mean to push you away today. "I didn't know it was you."

Raegan didn't seem surprised to hear this. He nodded and said, "It's okay."

He knew that Mitchel didn't hold a grudge against him. He had no reason to embarrass her in public.

I had to admit that I was a little upset then. But it was only a moment. He soon forgot it.

Because I no longer had any expectations in Mitchel. Those kinds of things didn't affect her.

But who did he want to get rid of at that moment? Did he confuse her with Eloise?

Raegan didn't want to think about the answer anymore. It wasn't his business anyway. After all, Mitchel's mind was inherently unpredictable. It was hard to understand how Raegan's indifference broke Mitchel's heart even more.

But this time he didn't dare to be too aggressive. I was afraid to scare her, so I could only pretend calm. He looked at her ankle and asked, "How is your ankle?" Does it still hurt?

"I'm fine," Raegan replied shortly. It sounded very cold. And because of this, the anger in Mitchel's heart instantly increased.

Suddenly he grabbed her wrist and said, "You don't have..."

Mitchel's voice stopped. Then he pushed Raegan away.

His eyes landed on a man's coat on the couch. Furthermore, the sound of water in the bathroom attracted his attention. He felt like he was being slapped hard across the face.

His face became even more cold and gloomy. He narrowed his eyes at Raegan.

"Who is there?"

Raegan didn't answer. Mitchel leaned in and pressed his handsome face against hers. He demanded harshly: "Answer me."

Raegan looked at Mitchel calmly and responded nonchalantly, “Mr. Dixon, first of all, I'm not your employee. I don't have to inform you of anything. Besides, I have nothing to do with you. So you have no right to meddle in my affairs.

These words inflamed Mitchel's anger even more. He scoffed, shoved Raegan away, and turned to go to the bathroom to confront the guy inside.

However, Raegan blocked his way and said coldly, “Mr. Dixon, this is my place. "He has no right to do things as he pleases."

Mitchel gritted his teeth. Now he was overcome with anger.

“Raegan, how can you fool me like that?”

Raegan looked at him as if she were looking at a lunatic.

«Mr Dixon, I am still very young. Isn't it normal that I fall in love again? And we are divorced. How can you accuse me of cheating on you?

Plus, you have those women around you. And what right does a man have to ask his ex-wife to stay single for him?

Mitchel was so angry that he was speechless.

He had to admit that when it came to Raegan, he felt helpless.

He shouldn't have been irritated by her to begin with. And he shouldn't have promised her that he would end their relationship.

He stared at her. His eyes were as deep as a bottomless pit. He threatened, "Raegan, have you forgotten the consequences of provoking me?"

But Raegan didn't show even the slightest trace of fear. Instead, he smiled and said, “Mr. Dixon, don't forget your promise. I hope he is a man of his word. Otherwise, I will truly despise him.”

These words sounded very familiar to Mitchel.

Raegan imitated Eloise's words today at the mall.

Obviously, Mitchel's new girlfriend was jealous and considered Raegan her rival.

Mitchel pressed his thin lips tightly together. His body tensed with rage.

He had no choice but to swallow the words he wanted to say.

The disgust and avoidance in Raegan's eyes were very evident.

At that moment, all the arrogance and conceit in his body shattered.

Mitchel swallowed hard, making his Adam's apple bob up and down. It's not what you think. Eloise and I are just..."

Mitchel paused. Suddenly, he didn't want to say anything else.

After all, he knew Raegan wasn't interested in hearing the truth. He didn't care if he was dating someone or not.

After a while in silence, Mitchel opened his mouth to say something. However, the bathroom door crashed open.

Then, a familiar voice rang.

“Raegan, can you get me a bath towel?”

The expression on Mitchel's face changed drastically upon hearing this.
