Mitchel hurriedly explained, âIt was just a misunderstandingâ¦â
âJust a misunderstanding?â Erick scoffed and continued, âWas the miscarriage also a misunderstanding? Is it true that you didnât help Raegan save her baby?â
Upon hearing this, Mitchel felt a lump forming in his throat, rendering him speechless.
Looking at the distressed expression on Mitchelâs face, Erick sneered, âWell, I hope you can finalize the divorce with Raegan soon, Mr.
Dixon.
â
âNo way! Not gonna happen!â Mitchel instantly dismissed the idea.
Erick smirked.
âYou donât have a say in this, Mr.
Dixon.
After being apart for five years, do you really think the court will side with you if Raegan asks for a divorce?â
Mitchel stood his ground.
âIâm not divorcing Raegan.
And you canât decide for her.
â
Erick was surprised by Mitchelâs insistence.
He scanned the room, then whispered, âFine.
Iâll tell Raegan everything when she wakes up.
She deserves to know the truth.
I just hope, for her sake, youâll respect her choice and stop pressuring her.
â
Erick was determined to reveal all to Raegan.
âEver thought how lucky it is that Raegan lost her memory? If she recalled how you shattered her heart, what would she think of you?
Youâre smart, Mr.
Dixon.
You can guess,â Erick taunted.
Mitchelâs face drained of color at Erickâs words, but he couldnât deny they were on point.
Erick continued, âThereâs something else you should know.
Raegan has a child.
Kabir, her psychologist, and she had a baby.
They were close, but Kabir died in an accident right before their wedding, and Raegan gave birth alone.
â
Frankly, Erickâs aim was for Mitchel to realize that Raegan had not just fallen in love with another man but had also become the mother of the manâs child after leaving Mitchel.
She found happiness in a life without Mitchel.
Mitchelâs face lost its color and he quivered as he asked, âWhy are you telling me this?â
âYouâd find out sooner or later, so I thought itâs better to be upfront, Mr.
Dixon.
â Erick had planned everything meticulously, but he still worried Mitchel might get suspicious about Janeyâs biological father.
It seemed wiser to clear up any doubts now.
If not, Mitchel could end up probing into Janeyâs background.
They couldnât risk losing Janey, neither Erick nor Raegan.
After a brief pause, Mitchel inhaled deeply and vowed, âIâll stop forcing her into things, but Iâm not letting her leave.
â
Erick was about to add more when the medical procedure ended.
He approached the doctor, asking anxiously, âHowâs Raegan now?â
âMiss Foster is still recovering from her car crash.
The shock made her brain shut down, The more she passes out, the worse it gets.
â
Erick felt a wave of despair hearing this.
Noticing Raegan awake, he rushed to her.
But he stopped Mitchel from following him.
âNot right now.
â After saying that, Erick shut the door.
Erick seemed to be discussing something with Raegan, who occasionally peeked at Mitchel.
Mitchel was clueless about what Erick might have told Raegan regarding their shared history, causing his heart to race.
It was as if he were perched on a bench, anxiously awaiting a verdict.
Finally, Erick and Raeganâs conversation came to an end.
