Chapter 1624: Chapter 1629

When Raegan started to walk away, Katie suddenly got up and exclaimed, “Wait, don’t leave!”

Raegan stopped and turned around, confused.

“Is there anything else you need, Miss Glyn?”

Katie stood tall and announced proudly, “I get it.

You’re trying to play it cool.

I’m getting married to Mitchel!”

Raegan asked, “Ever hear about ‘the boy who cried wolf’?”™

This comment made Katie scowl.

Raegan was mocking her for lying!

Katie pressed her lips together, slightly irritated.

““Mitchel’s been kicked out.

He won’t remain as the CEO of the Dixon Group.

Did you catch that?”

Raegan didn’t say a word.

“The investigation revealed he acted against the Dixon Group’s interests, and his decision to drop the Eastern Garden project was all because of personal issues.

The board was unanimous in firing him.

”

Katie looked straight at Raegan, determination in her eyes.

“This time, I’m the only one who can save him.

”

Katie was assertive.

Even though Henley often played fast and loose with the truth, this time he hadn’t lied to her.

Plus, Luciana had promised to convince Mitchel to marry her.

Luciana was determined not to stand idly by while Mitchel was defeated and taken down by Henley, that illegitimate son.

“Miss Glyn, I once thought you were quite intelligent.

” Raegan laughed softly.

“Did Henley suggest the only way out for Mitchel is to marry you, making the whole Eastern Garden issue seem like a big misunderstanding?”

“How did you know that?” Katie eyed Raegan with suspicion.

Raegan, with her arms folded, leaned back casually and said, “And did he mention that you should then invest in the Dixon Group stocks? That way, there’d be no conflicts of interest in your relationship, and Mitchel’s problem would just sort itself out.

”

“You’ve been spying on me, haven’t you?” Katie’s expression turned serious, wondering if Raegan had bugged her.

The message wasn’t the same word for word, but it meant pretty much the same thing.

Raegan found it pointless to explain herself and laughed softly, shaking her head.

“Miss Glyn, you might as well give up.

Mitchel will never go for your plan.

”

Katie looked visibly upset, retorting, “You’re just envious.

He and I will make an unbeatable team, a powerhouse couple.

My support will be invaluable to his career.

Why on earth will Mitchel refuse?”

Raegan twirled a strand of her hair, replying with ease, “Because Mitchel isn’t foolish enough to walk into such an obvious trap.

”

Over the years, Raegan gained a wealth of knowledge while her father dealt in international trade, aiming to shield her from being exploited due to her naivety.

The international trade world, with its involvement of numerous countries, turned out to be far more cutthroat and deceitful than its domestic counterpart.

Henley’s suggestion wasn’t meant to benefit Katie.

By proposing this idea, It was clear that Henley lacked the ability to take over the Dixon Group on his own.

If Mitchel agreed to marry Katie, it would essentially validate the accusations, giving Henley the perfect opportunity to take advantage when the moment was right and take over in one clean sweep.

Katie was being manipulated, totally oblivious to it.

It seems that obsession could blind even the most detail-oriented person like Katie.

Katie’s frustration was palpable, her fingers pressing into her palm and her teeth gritted as she demanded, “What exactly are you trying to say? Make it clear!”

Raegan just smirked.

“Some dreams remain dreams.

But if there’s ever a wedding, do send an invite to flaunt it.

”

Raegan didn’t want to alert Henley with what she had figured out from Katie’s reaction.
