âHeâs willing to exchange your life with any amount of money as long as youâre safe and sound.
But I canât get a dime if you die,â Tessa revealed.
Tessaâs Lips curled up in what she thought was a sweet smile.
But on her face, it looked terrifying.
âHe seems to care about you,â Tessa added.
This revelation left Raegan bewildered and unable to grasp even her own emotions.
âI once thought Mitchel was interested in Lauren.
But it turns out he prefers you, you wretched girl.
Lauren had me fooled.
She made me believe that if you were out of the picture, she could step into your shoes, and I could gain a lot by being friends with her,â Tessa elaborated.
âs BunnyBookery âBut I never expected that youâd outmaneuver even Lauren, Mitchelâs first love!â
Raeganâs eyes widened in shock at the mention of Laurenâs name, and she asked in disbelief, âAre you saying Lauren tricked you into kidnapping me last time?â
Raegan had suspected the mastermind was Lauren all along.
But Lauren had always denied it, and Tessa disappeared without a trace.
The mystery had remained unsolved, especially after Lauren was admitted to a mental hospital.
Raegan turned bloodshot as Tessaâs words confirmed her worst fears.
With a voice shaking with rage, she questioned, âYou two conspired to harm my child, didnât you?â
In Tessaâs eyes, Raegan was to meet her demise today.
Therefore, Tessa didnât hide the truth from Raegan anymore, wanting Raegan to suffer from the revelation before the final end of her life.
âBack then, Lauren provided me with the money and revealed details about your discharge.
Then, I arranged for someone to kidnap you in the underground parking lot.
Did you recall Lauren was coincidently kidnapped that day? Well, it was just a staged performance for Mitchel, urging Mitchel to rush over to save her while leaving time for me to end you.
Butâ¦â
Tessa confessed without a hint of remorse.
She then paused for a brief moment and looked down at Raegan with apparent disdain.
âEven if I tell you, what difference does it make? Lauren didnât directly do anything.
What can you possibly do to her?â
Raegan felt a surge of fury, which caused her entire body to tremble.
Sure enough, Lauren was undoubtedly involved.
Lauren played her cards right and ensured there would be no direct evidence against her even if the truth came to light.
How evil! What a cunning and vicious woman!

The truth was, Tessa, too, resented Lauren.
If it hadnât been for Laurenâs manipulation, she wouldnât be hunted down by Mitchel like this.
Moreover, she wouldnât have met that pervert fisherman and wouldnât have been tortured.
In Tessaâs tormented mind, everyone she met was to blame for her misery.
The more Tessa dwelled on it, the more her face contorted into a ferocious expression.
âItâs all your fault! ALL of you guys! I was a refined young woman.
My face was my fortune!â Tessa spat, her face twisted further into a grotesque appearance.
Tessa had spent millions maintaining her appearance and striving for perfection.
With her looks alone, she assumed she couldâve married into a wealthy family and led a leisurely life.
But now, her once flawless face was marred beyond repair.
Medical experts had told Tessa no amount of money could fix her face.
