âOf course.
â
Upon hearing his ready agreement, Raegan began to feel a little sorry for Mitchel.
Her remorse, however, was short-lived.
Mitchel looked at Raegan with a serious expression and said, âI donât like coming out of situations empty-handed.
If you let me do the same thing to you, Iâll delete the recording right away.
â
Raegan was left speechless momentarily.
âYou wish!â She gritted her teeth in frustration.
She had just started to hold Mitchel in high regard when he was with Janey earlier.
But now, he was making this shameless request.
Mitchel lowered his gaze to hide his determination.
âItâs alright.
No rush.
Take your time to think it over.
â
Mitchel was willing to do whatever it took to win Raegan back.
He would try whatever tactics as long as it worked.
In any case, he was not about to give up on her.
The following morning, Raegan received a document from Erick, who was till in Swynborough.
It was something about Cary.
After browsing through the document, Raegan formulated a plan and started getting ready.
She sat in front of the vanity and applied some concealer to mask the dark circles under her eyes.
The more concealer she used, the more her anger simmered.
It was all Mitchelâs fault.
How could he record everything and even send her a copy of it? She had been so embarrassed that she hadnât slept a wink all night.
It felt more distressing than having compromising photos in someone elseâs possession.
Victor picked Raegan up at the gate and then briefed her on her findings.
âMiss, a little bird told me that Caryâs wife plans to hold a press conference at ten oâclock to target against you.
â
âItâs fine.
We can handle it.
â This time, Raegan swore to herself she would make that scumbag pay.
Just then, her phone rang.
It was Matteo with something intriguing to share.
âMr.
Dixon said that heâll let you handle this on your own,â Matteo cut straight to the point.
âI got it.
Do send my thanks to him,â Raegan messaged back.
âMr.
Dixon insists on actions over words,â Matteo replied.
Reading that, Raegan was taken aback.
She clenched her teeth and typed, âTell him to go f@ck himself.
â She was not about to let Mitchel take advantage of her.
Upon arriving at the venue where Caryâs wife was hosting the press conference, Raegan felt a hand grasp her arm.
She turned to see a woman with vibrant red Lips, sunglasses, and alluring curly hair.
âNell?â Raegan uttered in disbelief.
âSomebody dares to mess with my best friend, so I must teach her a lesson, donât you think?â Nell stated confidently.
Actually, Nell was Nicoleâs alias, which she used to avoid Jarrod in the past.
Nicole and Raegan had previously fought side by side against some gangsters while they were out of the country.
âItâs so good to have you around!â Raegan declared cheerfully and went into the venue with Nicole.
Neither Raegan nor Nicole noticed Mitchel, Luis and Jarrod had entered behind them.
