After leaving the car, they walked back to the villa.
Before heading upstairs, Stefan paused.
âRaegan, right now your primary concern should be the baby.
Leave the search for your mother to Erick and me.
Donât worry.
Youâre in good hands.
Furthermore, if your mother knew you were Losing sleep over her, she would feel sad.
The best gift you can give her is to take care of yourself.
â
Stefanâs advice resonated deeply, and Raegan nodded.
âI understand.
Iâll try to manage my emotions better.
â
Stefan offered a reassuring smile.
âTomorrow, once I finish work, letâs go for another walk, but this time, make sure you donât fall asleep in the car.
Get a proper nightâs sleep on your bed.
â
Raegan agreed.
The walk seemed to have a beneficial effect, as she now felt an urge to take a bath and head straight to bed.
Raegan headed upstairs, took a bath, and climbed into bed.
Just as she was settling down to sleep, her phone began to ring.
Raegan glanced at her phone as it rang and saw Bryceâs name flash on the screen.
Answering the call, she began, âHello, Bryceâ¦â
âs BunnyBookery Before she could continue, Bryce interrupted with an anxious tone, âRaegan, where are you? Itâs about Mitchelâ¦â His voice was disjointed and filled with desperation.
Raeganâs heart raced at the mention of âMitchel.
â Mitchel still hadnât come back to Ardlens? âStay calm and tell me whatâs wrong with him,â she urged soothingly.
âHe collapsed in the hotel, and Iâve called an ambulance, but they said itâll take twenty minutes to arrive.
Iâm really scaredâ¦â
Raegan was shocked.
How could Mitchel just collapse suddenly?
âWhich hotel are you at?â Raegan inquired.
Bryce responded, âAt the Hilpton Yacht Hotel.
â
Thinking for a while, Raegan realized it was just a few miles from her location.
She was surprised to discover a seven-star hotel so close by during her last visit.
âItâs not far from me,â Raegan said, springing into action.
âStay calm and listen to my instructions for first aid.
Iâm coming over with Stefan right now.
â
Quickly grabbing a jacket, Raegan continued to guide Bryce over the phone as she rushed to Stefanâs room downstairs.
Reaching downstairs, Raegan just hung up the phone.
Her legs trembled as she approached the door of Stefanâs room.
Fortunately, she didnât need to knock.
Stefan, hearing the commotion, opened the door himself.
Noticing Raeganâs distressed state, Stefanâs usually calm demeanor shifted.
âRaegan, whatâs wrong?â
âMitchel⦠Mitchel has collapsed.
Stefan, can you call a doctor to save him?â Raegan stammered, her breath uneven.
Stefan immediately reassured her, âDonât worry.
Iâm on it right now.
â
Stefan then quickly dialed on his phone, speaking rapidly in the Aurora dialect.
He then comforted her, âRelax.
Iâve contacted the best doctor in Aurora.
â
They hurried to hotel and arrived within five minutes, just in time to meet Stefanâs doctor.
