She was mystified by the womanâs fixation on pregnancy.
The woman apologised, âMy fault.
â
âItâs fine.
â Raegan was just about to leave.
In an instant, the womanâs heel slipped, and she careened toward Raegan.
Though the woman wasnât heavy, her forward momentum would surely topple Raegan.
Raeganâs face paled as she reflexively shielded her stomach from the oncoming woman.
Seemingly in a stroke of luck, the woman clutched the wall, saving herself from toppling over.
The woman apologized profusely, âI didnât slip into you, did I? The floor here is so slippery.
â
Still shaken by the near miss, Raeganâs complexion turned ashen.
She shook her head.
âYou didnât.
But please, are you okay? Take care.
â
âIâm alright,â the woman reassured her.
âThen Iâll be leaving.
â Raegan smiled cordially and made her exit.
With a quick hand wash, the woman headed toward a secluded chamber.
Seeing no one around, she eased open the door.
A pregnant woman, her face pallid and sallow, sat within.
It was Katie.
âHow did it go?â she questioned the woman.
In a whisper, the woman confided, âI suspect she is pregnant.
â
Katie was visibly stunned, her disbelief clear.
Katie, having observed Raeganâs urgent retreat to the restroom and hand-covering, sensed something amiss.
So she sent her assistant to investigate.
To conceal her true intentions, Katie instructed her assistant to intentionally spill wine and food.
Katie struggled to accept the idea that Raegan might be pregnant.
After all, she knew Mitchelâs recent schedule.
As far as Katie knew, Mitchel and Raegan hadnât been intimate or alone together these days.
So, a child between them seemed far-fetched.
Could Raegan be pregnant with another manâs baby?
As Katie pondered, she grew certain that Raegan was carrying another manâs child.
Previously, Katie had believed that Raegan was devoted to Mitchel, but now, the idea that Raegan had conceived a child with someone else so quickly after their separation was jarring.
So much for the supposed years of love between them! Raegan was surely a slut.
She knew it!
Pleased with her discovery, Katie could barely contain her excitement to share the news with Mitchel, eager to witness his reaction.
After all, men tended to feel upset when their ex-partners move on quickly with new partners.
With Mitchelâs harsh demeanor to her fresh in her mind, Katie intended to call him, anticipating the pleasure of personally delivering the news about Raeganâs pregnancy.
She wanted Mitchel to witness Raeganâs true colors.
