Mitchel lowered his eyes at her and firmly declared, âI want to do it right here.
â
The crinkling sound of packing paper filled the air.
Mitchel stretched out and, suddenly, unwrapped the bouquet of roses under her back.
The bouquet burst open.
Some flowers landed on the table, while others scattered across the floor.
Raegan doubted that the tea table would be able to support their weight.
Anxious, her heart pounded, threatening to leap out of her chest.
She pushed Mitchel away and asserted, âI donât want to do it hereâ¦
Letâs not⦠Letâs not do it then.

Mitchelâs piercing gaze met hers, and he questioned, âWell, do you really want me to stop?â
As soon as he said these words, he released her and stood up.
For a brief moment, Raegan almost believed him.
But at the same time, she did not want to lose the chance to sever ties with Mitchel completely.
His offer was like a tempting, sweet red apple.
Raegan was desperate to escape her current situation.
She understood that only Mitchelâs agreement to end their relationship could truly free her from their entangled lives.
As Mitchel had said, no one else could change his decision but him.
After a pause, Raegan asked, âYou really mean that, donât you?â
Mitchel glanced at her with eyes cold and devoid of desire.
âIsnât that what you want?â
Raegan stared at him and tightened her grip on his collar.
âWrite it down.
Promise you wonât pester me again.

Mitchelâs gaze was profound, framed by ong eyelashes.
His emotionless stare made it difficult to decipher his thoughts.

âOf course, I can put it in writing.
But what if I change my mind someday? What would you do then?â
Raegan was at a loss for words.
This promise held no legal weight.
As Mitchel pointed out, if he changed his mind, she was powerless to do anything, let alone seek justice.
Deep down, she clung to this promise to comfort herself.
Perhaps driven by fear of his interference in her life, she was willing to take the risk.
âYou know the outcome is unpredictable, right? Are you sure you want to bet on it Mitchel calmly asked.
