After Mitchel lifted Katie, Katieâs assistant, not familiar with Raegan, asked Mitchel, âMr.
Dixon, what should we do with this person?â
Mitchelâs eyes, deep and inscrutable, flickered with a hint of ferocity that sent a chill through Raegan.
âTake her to the hospital with us,â he stated, his voice as cold as his expression, completely devoid of empathy.
Raegan instinctively resisted going with Mitchel and stood her ground, firmly stating, âI wonât go with you.
Iâll wait until the officers arrive.
They will investigate what really happened.
â
Mitchel gave Raegan a cold look and his lips curved slightly as he commanded, âTake her!â
Uncertain of his intentions and feeling uneasy, Raegan was forcefully pulled into the car by Katieâs assistant.
Just then, the factory owner, who hadnât seen Raegan for a while, arrived.
Seeing Raegan was forced into the car, she rushed over and grabbed onto Raeganâs sleeve.
âWhat are you doing? Why are you taking her away? Donât you have any respect for the rule of law?â she demanded.
Katieâs assistant ignored her protests, choosing to roll up the car window without a second glance.
As the car window was closing, Raegan quickly slipped her phone into the factory ownerâs hand, whispering, âDonât worry.
Let my brother handle the factoryâs affairs.
â
âs BunnyBookery Stunned, the factory owner stood still, not following the car.
From his position in the lead car, Mitchel glanced back through the rearview mirror and coldly ordered, âSearch that woman.
â
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
Katie was immediately rushed into the emergency room for treatment.
Mitchel watched the door of the operating room intently, his expression filled with concern.
Meanwhile, Raegan leaned against the wall outside the operating room, her body feeble and her legs barely holding her up.
She was exhausted and could only rest against the wall for support.
Suddenly, the door swung open and a nurse stepped out with a grave expression.
âSir, the situation is critical right now.
If we keep protecting the baby, it might put the motherâs life at risk.
We need to know what you decide.
â
Mitchelâs face lost its color, and after a moment of hesitation, he replied.
âDo your best to save her.
Whatever it takes.
â
âAlright.
We need your signature for these documents,â the nurse said before returning to the operating room.
As the door closed, Raeganâs eyes met Mitchelâs.
The raw worry in his gaze was unmistakable.
A bitter taste rose in Raeganâs throat.
She couldnât bear to watch their connection for another moment.
âCan I leave now, Mr.
Dixon?â Raegan asked, her voice distant and detached.
Mitchelâs face was stoic as he responded in a low tone, âNo, you canât.
â
A spark of anger ignited within Raegan, and she retorted, âI can assure you I didnât push Katie.
Iâve got nothing to do with her fall.
â
Mitchel gave Raegan a brief glance but remained silent, offering no response.
Raegan held back the rest of her words.
She had wanted to explain that Katie had set her up, but she knew it was futile.
Mitchelâs heart and attention were fully committed to Katie inside the operating room.
Any explanation she offered would likely fall on deaf ears, and might even provoke him further.
Raegan pressed her lips together, swallowing the bitterness.
âI donât care if you will believe me.
I can go to the police station myself to explain the situation.
Iâll prove my innocence.
â
âCome with me,â Mitchel said coldly, sparing Raegan another brief glance before heading into the nearby VIP lounge.
