The fact that his illness had recurred four months earlier than before was a concerning sign, but Mitchel didnât give it much thought.
At this moment, all his attention was consumed by Raegan.
If he hadnât had an important client meeting later this evening, he would have immediately sought her out upon landing.
He never expected he would run into her like this.
During the car ride back, Mitchel attentively listened as Matteo provided updates on Raeganâs life.
It appeared that her daily routine predominantly consisted of having dinner with Stefan.
As a matter of fact, they had dined together three times in a single week.
Then, after dinner, they would stroll through the park Like a couple deeply in love.
Thinking about how Raegan had sweetly called out Stefanâs name, Mitchel couldnât help but feel an intense pang of jealousy.
Noticing his distracted state, Katie was uneasy and decided to shift the conversation toward work.
âWith Marcusâ help, Iâm confident weâll secure the bid for the energy project.
â
After a month-long trip abroad, Katie managed to persuade Marcus Morgan and secured his assistance.
She did this to carve a place for the Dixon family in the burgeoning new energy industry.
To others, it might have appeared as though she was exclusively benefiting the Dixon family, but that was far from the whole truth.
The scope of the new energy project was simply too vast for her Glyn family to handle independently.
However, by collaborating with the Dixon Group, the Glyn family stood to gain significantly.
Katie had meticulously weighed these factors.
While the task was undeniably challenging, it had the potential to solidify her position as Mitchelâs future wife and give her considerable benefits.
Of course, she wouldnât let this invaluable opportunity slip through her fingers.
Furthermore, it was reasonable to assume that her dedication to helping the Dixon family would be perceived as a desire to marry Mitchel.
But something unexpected happened.
Katieâs eyes darkened.
She never expected that, upon returning from her month-long trip abroad, she would be met with Raeganâs miraculous return.
But so what? Katie had carefully orchestrated her grand scheme for five years.
She wasnât about to let Raeganâs reappearance disrupt it.
As Mitchel and Katie approached the entrance to the chamber, Mitchelâs hand gravitated toward his phone, as though he were about to issue directives to his subordinates.
After five years of shared experiences, Katie possessed an acute understanding of Mitchelâs demeanor.
She knew he was worried about Raegan.
Leading the way, Katie uttered with a touch of grace, âWe appear to be running slightly behind schedule.
Mitchel, Marcus holds a pivotal position among our guests.
Shall we proceed inside?â
Mitchel cast a fleeting glance in her direction but remained reticent.
Katie felt somewhat guilty, bowing her head as she continued, âYour decision to consult with Marcus on this occasion wasnât fortuitous.
He has been eagerly anticipating your arrival for several days.
However, Iâve endeavored to assuage his anxieties to the best of my ability.
â
At that precise moment, the waiter swung open the door to the chamber, and Mitchel had to give up on making a phone call and take a measured step into the chamber.
Meanwhile, in another chamber, Raegan entered and immediately spotted Cary Blake, the general manager of Pinkorps Media, already present.
Raegan felt embarrassed and slightly bent down.
âCary, I sincerely apologize.
I got caught in heavy traffic on my way here.
â
Before Cary could respond, a woman beside him interjected, her tone sharp and recognizable, âWell, well, look who graces us with her presence.
Itâs the general manager of Crescent.
Weâve all been patiently waiting solely for your arrival.
