Love Unbreakable

Chapter 118

Teaching Raegan A Lesson Lauren's heart raced in sheer panic.

Mitchel found out what she had done? No, no fucking way! She had been so careful.

Mitchel couldn't have found out.

He must only be fishing for information right now.

At this moment, Lauren managed to cool herself down, shaking her head vehemently, and cried,"Mitchel, I never hide anything from you.

You know me well.

How could | ever lie to you? Why can't you trust me?” As she remained in denial, Mitchel coldlyretorted, "That time I came back from Tenassie, the director of the hospital that examined Raegan is anold friend of your father.

And those anonymous photos I received...

Want to know who sent those to me? Need I say more?” Lauren went as white as a sheet.

She never expected Mitchel would dig so deep.

However, she could never admit it.

If she did, that would be the end of everything.

With tears streaming down her face, she clung to Mitchel's arm and feigned innocence.

"I have no idea what you're talking about.

None of this is my doing.

You've got to trust me.

I would never lie to you." Mitchel pulled his arm back and backed away from her.

As he listened to Matteo report all of this, Mitchel felt his own disbelief was in no way less thanLauren's current expression.

Was this the same girl who had fought to save him years ago, lifted his spirits when they were strandedin the water, and urged him to keep going because the world was beautiful? Luis was right.

Mitchel understood he had underestimated how far a woman could go for love.

If he did not love her, she might have lost it.

Lauren panicked when she saw the icy look on his face.

"It was Jocelyn’s fault, not mine.

I had no idea what she did...." Lauren tried to defend herself.

Mitchel narrowed his eyes and said in a chilly tone, "Just because I dealt with Jocelyn today doesn'tmean I believe you, Lauren.

I'm leaving you some wiggle room." Lauren had ruined every ounce of trust he placed in her.

The once innocent and pure girl he knew was now gone.

Mitchel looked down at her and queried, "Do you want me to Keep digging?" The warmth once presentin his eyes was replaced by an arctic chill.

Flustered, Lauren clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.

“Mitchel, you're misunderstanding.

I..." "Enough," Mitchel interjected, his patience wearing thin.

“Your surgery is set for next week.

You'll be flying out in three days." "Mitchel, how can you be so cruel to me? Is it all because ofRaegan? She's fine, and Jocelyn's already paid the price.” Lauren dropped to the floor, clung toMitchel's trousers, and weakly implored, "You can't do this to me, Mitchel...” With a flick of his leg,Mitchel shook her off and warned, "Raegan is my bottom line.” His words crashed over Lauren like atidal wave.

For a moment, she was stunned.

Bottom line? These two serious words...

Did Raegan really mean this much to Mitchel? Raegan was just a bitch! Why her? Not wanting to lingeranother second, Mitchel advised, “You should start packing." Without waiting for her response, heturned to leave.

"Mitchel..." Lauren, in a last-ditch effort, charged forward to grab his hand and, with her face awash intears, asked, "Are you punishing me for Jocelyn’s mistakes? I know I was wrong.

Please don't leave me...

Without you, I would rather die than live on." Before she could touch his hand, Mitchel recoiled indisgust and strode away.

On the edge of total collapse, Lauren played her final card.

"Mitchel, if you walk out that door, I won't have the surgery.

I swear to God! I'd rather die than go through with it.” Arrogant as she ever was, she firmly supposedMitchel would give in when she threatened him with her life.

After all, he still thought she was the one who had saved him years ago.

Mitchel wouldn't just stand there and watch if she refused to have the surgery, right? But the nextsecond, she knew she was wrong.

Mitchel stopped in his tracks and turned to face her.

"You only live once, Lauren.

I won't force you to do what you don't want.

But just so you know, with this surgery, my responsibility of taking care of you ends." In other words,whether she had the surgery or not, his decision would not change.

"What?" Lauren uttered in shock, her face ghastly pale.

She gazed up at him and stared at the man bathed in moonlight.

His good looks were the same, but the warmth she had come to expect was gone.

He was a stranger to her now.

Without another word, Mitchel turned and strode away.

"No...

No!" Lauren cried hysterically.

Unhinged and bordering on madness, she muttered to herself, "This can’t be.

Mitchel won't do this to me.

He loves me.

It's all because of that wretched Raegan and the baby in her belly!" With this thought in mind, her eyesdarkened with malice, and she clenched her fingers so tightly they drew blood.

It must be that Raegan and her baby! How Lauren wished she could skin them all! Beep.

Suddenly, her phone on the table buzzed to life.

Lauren crawled over and picked it up.

She did not even wait for the person on the other end to speak and went straight to the point.

"Change of plan.

Show no mercy.” After disconnecting the call, a malicious grin stretched across her face.

Lauren swore to herself that Mitchel could only be hers and hers alone.

That bitch Raegan...

Her days were numbered! Meanwhile, in the hospital, Raegan found herself confined to her ward,trailed by attendants wherever she went.

The constant supervision made her lose interest in leaving her room, so she went to bed early.

She usually shut off the air conditioner before bed.

However, the room seemed colder than usual, so she opted not to.

In the dead of night, she sensed what felt like a warm “furnace” next to her.

It was warm and comfortable.

In addition, it even had a pleasant scent.

She turned over, snuggled close to this furnace, and fell into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, Mitchel froze and tried his best not to move a muscle.

But Raegan was restless.

Her hands roved here and there, igniting a fire within him.

There was nothing he could do but grasp her wandering hand to keep her from touching him in placesshe should not.

But the next moment, she accidentally nuzzled her lips against his Adam's apple.

Her soft lips brushed against his most sensitive area, and he tensed up almost instantly.

That was the last place that she should touch because it made him turn on immediately.

A cold sweat broke out on Mitchel's forehead, and he almost lost control.

The temptation to give in to desire was overwhelming.

Thankfully, he still had some self-restraint left.

Well, Raegan was pregnant and could not have sex very often.

If he woke her now, who knows how long she would be up? He could not let her lose sleep.

Although begrudgingly, he waited out the temptation and did not succumb to slumber until the first raysof dawn crept through the window.

As the room brightened, Raegan stretched lazily and enjoyed the feel of the “furnace” beside her.

But the next second, she realized that something was wrong.

She sensed muscles.

She jolted awake, turned around, and found herself enveloped in Mitchel’s arms.

What on earth? Raegan jumped up and kicked Mitchel, who was asleep, right off the bed.novelbin

Mitchel landed on the floor with a heavy thud.

A man's morning mood was particularly erratic, especially after being touched all night long by thewoman he was attracted to.

Needless to say, he had not slept well.

Mitchel sprang back onto the bed in a flash, pinning her arms down, and smiled slyly.

"Raegan, I think you need to be taught a lesson."
