His thoughts were chaotic, blurring right from wrong, as he lashed out in anger.
He desperately wanted Raegan to turn back and look at him.
How could she discard him this desperately?
Abruptly, Raegan halted, pressing Henleyâs arm to silence him, whispering, âJust a second.
â
She turned around to confront Mitchel.
His eyes locked on hers, Mitchel challenged, âRaegan, you think I canât go on without you.
â
Smack! Raeganâs slap echoed, her hand throbbing with the impact.
Glaring at him, fury in her gaze, Raegan enunciated fiercely, âThis slap is for our baby.
â
Mitchelâs face bore the mark of a slap.
In that instant, as if an explosion had occurred in his mind, a surge of fuel welled up inside him.
âRaegan, what the hell?â he exclaimed in complete disbelief.
Raegan dared to slap him again.
Perhaps he had been too lenient with her.
To his surprise, Raegan raised her hand again, ready to deliver another slap.
But this time, as she swung, Mitchel intercepted her.
Her hand Landed on the back of his, emitting a loud, crisp sound.
It could be seen she had used all her strength for that blow.
âAre you out of your mind? What the hell is wrong with you?â
Mitchel seized Raeganâs wrist, intending to show her the consequences of her actions.
As he spoke, his veins throbbed and stood on his forehead.
However, as he was about to make a move, he felt her wrist trembling in his grasp.
How could it beâ¦
Puzzled, he looked up at he and questioned, âYour handâ¦â
He could not finish his sentence.

blanked out his thoughts, leaving his questions unasked.
Raegan slowly withdrew her hand.
She clasped both hands tightly and pinched her palms to still the trembling.
Her eyes, burning with hatred, met Mitchelâs.
âMitchel, Iâve never done anything wrong in our marriage.
Donât tarnish me with your vile thoughts.
â
Raegan had hoped that even if their relationship had ended, they could avoid hostility.
Even if they met, they could at least maintain their dignity.
But now, she realized she would never find peace with such a man.
At this moment, Raegan pinched her palm and continued, âIâve always known Iâm not the one you love.
Thereâs no need to remind me.
I never believed you couldnât live without me.
Iâm well aware of who I am.
