Chapter 1468: Chapter 1471

“Release me!” Raegan demanded, gently hitting Mitchel’s chest, her embarrassment teetering on the edge of tears.

Mitchel, recognizing her acute shyness, released her, allowing her to stand on her own.

Raegan fumed, saying, “I said not here, not like this!”

Just thinking about Luis’ look filled Raegan with utter embarrassment.

How could she look Luis in the eye after this…

“My apologies.

I’ll be more considerate next time,” Mitchel promised.

Raegan was baffled.

“What do you mean, ‘next time’!”

Mitchel couldn’t restrain a chuckle at her indignation.

To avoid Luis, Raegan stayed in Mitchel’s vehicle, while Mitchel approached Luis to check Raegan’s check-up results.

Once inside the car, Mitchel told Raegan, “I’ve looked over the report.

No issues.

”

‘s BunnyBookery Raegan’s anxiety eased slightly, yet Mitchel’s worry grew.

“You have to stay vigilant.

We’re investigating into the masterminds behind all these.

I don’t think that female bodyguard is enough for you.

I’m going to assign more to protect you.

”

Mitchel doubted the professionalism of Victor, the bodyguard chosen to Raegan by Erick.

Even until now, Victor was nowhere in sight, leaving Raegan alone to deal with the situation.

Actually, Victor had taken some personal time off, and Raegan hadn’t informed Erick, assuming things had been relatively quiet recently.

“I’ll stay alert, but extra bodyguards aren’t needed,” Raegan declined.

Mitchel, although not pleased with her refusal of extra protect, chose not to argue.

Instead, he gently said, “Promise me you’ll inform me wherever you go.

”

Raegan froze and acknowledged his genuine concern, feeling a touch of warmth, As Mitchel tenderly held her chin and gazed at her with warmth, Raegan found herself agreeing, drawn in by his caring look.

Mitchel’s spirits lifted immediately as he leaned in for a soft ki*s.

Then, cradling her head against him, he hugged her closely.

The sensation of his breath on her hair caused a strange flutter in her heart.

Trying not to bother his injury, Raegan squirmed slightly.

Mitchel’s embrace tightened, his voice rich and soothing, and said, “Just let me hold you for a bit.

”

The tenderness in his tone was almost too much to bear.

With her cheeks heating up, Raegan remained still.

“Raegan,” he uttered her name, his tone filled with an unexpected melancholy.

“I was somewhat upset today.

”

Raegan sensed Mitchel’s irritation but couldn’t pinpoint the cause.

She gently asked, “What’s making you upset?”
