Raeganâs resting on him made Mitchel content.
Mitchel smiled warmly, his eyes twinkling with amusement.
âSure, blame it on me.
I just wanted to make sure I did a good job.
â
Raegan, her cheeks a warm shade of pink, playfully swatted his chest.
It was only then she noticed he was wearing a suit and tie.
With a look of surprise, she asked, âHeading out?â
Mitchel nodded.
âYeah, Iâm off to the company.
â
Now more attentive, Raegan inquired, âHas the investigation wrapped up?â
âIt has.
â Mitchel nodded.
Raegan, concerned yet not wanting to seem unsupportive, embraced him, saying, âIâll be here waiting for you.
â
For Mitchel, nothing was more comforting than hearing his beloved say so.
A smile broke across his face as he gently ki*sed her forehead.
âAlright, wait for me.
â
Once Raegan got to her studio, a sense of unease followed her throughout the day, the fear of bad news lurking in her mind.
She found herself constantly checking news sites, hoping to not come across anything worrisome.
But as the day went by without any drama from the Dixon Group, Raeganâs anxiety slowly subsided, leading her to decide against reaching out to Mitchel.
That afternoon, even though there were no updates from the Dixon Group, Raegan got a surprise.
A client had made a special request to work with her on a dress worth over a million dollars.
It wasnât out of the ordinary for clients to ask specifically for Raegan, especially those who admired her embroidery skills.
Upon entering the VIP reception room, Raegan noticed a woman in a red dress seated with her back turned to her.
Walking up to the woman, Raegan greeted with a friendly tone, âHi there, Iâm Raegan Foster, the general manager of Crescent.
â
To her astonishment, the woman turned around to reveal herself as Katie.
âYou?â Raeganâs eyebrows knitted together in a slight frown.
Katie let out a soft scoff.
âWow, quite the welcome.
So, this is the kind of reception your esteemed clients get.
Itâs no surprise your studioâs struggling!â
It was clear to Raegan that Katie was looking to stir trouble.
Keeping her cool, she replied, âMiss Glyn, did you come to place an order or just to chat? Because if itâs the latter, please excuse me.
â
Katieâs expression turned icy.
âI came here to place the order, of course.
â
âGood, then.
Oaklyn, could you please take Miss Glynâs measurements?â
Raegan called out.
