Katie, taken aback, denied, âNo, I havenât seen her.
â
Mitchelâs indifferent tone followed.
âDo you think youâre being clever, Katie?â
âExcuse me?â Katie raised his head, meeting his piercing gaze.
It was a look sheâd never received from him before.
Instead of feeling cherished, Katie felt exposed under his scrutinizing eyes, her heart racing.
She felt unexpectedly agitated.
Mitchel said icily, âYou remember the incident where you falsely claimed to be my fiancée in front of Raegan? We havenât settled that yet.
Donât spout nonsense again, or youâll only harm yourself.
Regret would be your only companion.
â
Katieâs complexion drained of color.
With tears brimming, she asked, âAre you threatening me, Mitchel?â
Katie harbored the illusion that she was the only one who could get close to Mitchel after a five-year company.
Yet, over those years, she had actually spent more time with Luciana.
Mitchelâs heart remained icy.
He never fell in love with anyone.
Katie, however, failed to see the reality and believed she was special, thinking Mitchelâs indifference toward her was solely due to Raegan.
Mitchelâs face was expressionless, his voice devoid of warmth.
âThis is not a threat.
If you do this again, I will follow through.
Katieâs complexion instantly lost its color.
She just sensed a lethal tone in the manâs words.
With eyes brimming with tears, she uttered, Mitchel, does my love for you make everything I do seem wrong? Youâ¦â
Mitchel cut her off with a frosty tone, âLoving someone isnât wrong.
But the way you go about it disgusts me.
â
At his words, Katie was trembling all over.
The man she cherished for so many years had just said her love for him repulsed him⦠He found her repulsive!

In a shaky voice, she managed to say, âMitchel, the Glyn family has always been firm in our choice of you, never waveringâ¦â
Then, the door burst open.
Matteo stepped inside.
Mitchel commanded with an icy tone, âEscort Miss Glyn out.
Secure the door and ensure no outsiders get in.
â
His harsh words felt like a physical blow to Katie.
A stinging sensation spread across her cheek.
As Katie was about to utter another word, Matteo signaled her to stop and stated without emotion, âMiss Glyn, this way, please.
â
Katie gazed at Mitchel, her eyes filled with a mix of obsession and bitterness.
Finally, she whispered, âMitchel, all Iâve done was out of love for youâ¦â
She muttered to herself, âOne day, you will surely regret your indifference toward me!â
She exited Mitchelâs ward.
Once outside the hospital, the sorrow on Katieâs face swiftly turned to malevolence.
Then, she burst out laughing.
If she couldnât have Mitchel, no one would!
Back in Mitchelâs ward.
