Before Raegan could respond, Mitchelâs eyes turned cold, and he added, âLet me drive you so you can get to your date faster.
â
His cold demeanor made Raegan feel as though she was about to be punished.
She didnât dare to argue.
Mitchel rested one hand on the steering wheel but didnât start the car.
He asked, âIf I hadnât shown up today, were you planning to tell Kyler about our divorce?â
Raegan remained silent.
Even though she hadnât vocalized her intentions, she did think about it.
Mitchel sneered, âYou are quite something, Raegan.
To be with another man, you donât care about Kylerâs condition.
â
Raegan, however, couldnât help but feel that Kyler was doing much better than Mitchel was making it seem.
She responded, âAre you planning to hide it from Kyler forever? He hadnât shown any signs of being unhappy when I asked him what if you and I broke upâ¦â
With each word Raegan uttered, the light in Mitchelâs eyes seemed to fade.
Finally, he exploded.
Mitchel angrily threw some reports against the carâs central control console.
He said in a frustrated tone, âTake a look at these!â
Mitchelâs frustration was palpable.
He had used such force when throwing the reports that two pieces of paper scr@ped Raeganâs face.

Raegan felt a little pain when the sharp edge of the paper scr@ped a red mark on her face.
Though she said nothing, she picked up the reports and began to read.
The report read, âPremature heart valve contractions⦠Multiple organs showing signs of declineâ¦â
Many of the medical terms were beyond her comprehension, but she could discern that Kylerâs condition was far from good.
Her eyes welled up with tears, and a teardrop fell onto the paper.
Seeing the teardrop, Mitchel stiffened, his anger subsiding.
He wondered if he had been too harsh in his words.
Seeing the red marks on her face scr@ped by the paper, Mitchell felt a pang of distress.
He couldnât help extending his hand to alleviate her pain.
However, when Raegan saw his hand reaching out, her expression quickly changed.
She blocked his hand and said hastily, âIâm sorry.
I wonât tell Kyler about our divorce.
