Chapter 20:

? ? ? ? ?

“Raegan…” Mitchel called softly as he approached Raegan. His voice was full of worry.

It was the first time Raegan had a near-death experience. Raegan was still in a trance at that moment.

But Mitchel's voice brought him back to his senses. As soon as she saw him, she felt the urge to throw herself into his arms without a care in the world.

Today he was about to die.

He really thought it was the end of him.

If Raegan didn't survive, Mitchel would never see her again. And he would never know about his baby.

Mitchel still didn't know anything about the baby. Raegan hadn't had a chance to say anything to him. Even if he didn't like the baby, it was still his. I deserved to know.

The baby also had the right to let his father know of his existence.

Raegan didn't want to deprive her baby of that right.

"Mitchel..."

Raegan was about to say something when they pushed open the door and someone shouted Mitchel's name behind them.

It was Lauren who entered.

She immediately approached the bed and said worriedly, “Raegan, are you okay? Mitchel and I were on our way to the courthouse when we found out you were in the hospital. “We were shocked and worried about you, so we came immediately.”

Raegan was stunned for a moment. I didn't expect to hear those words from Lauren.

But he soon realized something.

Then he felt the hope in his heart that had just been revived sink to the bottom again. And the shine in his eyes gradually disappeared until it went out.

How could he forget? Today had to be an important day for Lauren.

After all, she and Mitchel were divorcing today, and Mitchel would finally be free to marry Lauren.

Raegan realized how ridiculous she was. Mitchel was looking forward to divorcing her. How could she continue to hold on to her fantasy with him?

His brain must have been affected by the injuries. She was confused and was not able to think clearly.

Raegan remained silent. It was Mitchel who turned his head toward Lauren and asked, "Why did you come in?"

His tone seemed sullen and his expression turned cold.

Lauren looked sad and said quietly, “It's so cold outside.

With these thin clothes, I can't stand the cold..."

Raegan still didn't say anything, but her eyes ran up and down Lauren. Lauren wore a white lace dress with a hollow out design. It was simple but elegant, which made her look especially fragile and attractive.

Mitchel was wearing a black suit, and Lauren was wearing a delicate white dress.

Anyone who saw them would immediately understand why they were dressed like that. Obviously, they couldn't wait to register their marriage certificate. Only what had happened to Raegan had ruined his plan.

After realizing this, Raegan didn't want to say another word to Mitchel.

At this moment, Lauren spoke again.

“Raegan, how do you feel now?”

Outwardly, Lauren was pretending to be worried about Raegan.

But the undisguised resentment in his eyes was undeniable.

Lauren had actually prepared herself for this day. She had this custom handmade white dress half a month ago because this day was special for her. She had been desperate to marry Mitchel, and she thought that today she would finally become his wife. So he got up early in the morning and got ready.

To have a calm plan today, Lauren took a morning after pill and went to the Dixon Group to wait for Mitchel. As soon as she saw him, she cried pitifully and cajoled him to go to court.

Lauren had planned everything beforehand. He just had to wait until Mitchel and Raegan got divorced. Then, she would get her way and allow Mitchel to marry her.

He thought that what had happened yesterday was enough for Raegan to back out. He didn't expect that Raegan wouldn't give up and delay the divorce date. Raegan must have done it on purpose!

Lauren couldn't help but curse Raegan in her heart as she looked at Raegan. Lauren vowed to make a meticulous plan for dealing with Raegan in the future.

"I'm fine," Raegan replied nonchalantly. His bandaged right hand was hidden under the quilt. Mitchel and Lauren couldn't see her. There was no need for them to know.

«I'm glad to know you're okay. It means you can go through the procedure this afternoon, right?” Lauren said immediately. Obviously, that had been his purpose for coming here.

Mitchel raised an eyebrow at Lauren's question. He looked at her with a frown and was going to say something.

But before Mitchel could open his mouth, Raegan spoke first.

«Of course I can. Don't worry. "I'll be there on time."

Even if Mitchel and Lauren weren't coming, Raegan had planned to go to the courthouse in the afternoon. Although it was uncomfortable for him to use his left hand due to his injured right hand, he could still sign documents with his left.

Mitchel's eyes narrowed and his expression darkened at Raegan's words.

But Lauren was too excited to notice Mitchel's sudden change in expression. Lauren took Mitchel's arm and said happily, "Thank you, Raegan." As I told you, even if you and Mitchel divorce, we will continue to treat you like family. We will take care of you.

Mitchel's brow furrowed at this.

Suddenly, the door burst open.

"Oh really? Since when does a stranger have the right to make decisions for the Dixon family? Why didn't I know? Luciana snapped as she stormed in.

Luciana looked noble and elegant in her red dress. She put the lunch box on the nightstand, grabbed a cushion, and placed it behind Raegan for support. Then he said lovingly to Raegan, “Raegan, are you hungry? Sorry I'm a little late. “I let the maids make these dishes for you and it took them a while to finish them.”

Luciana ignored Mitchel and Lauren. It was like only her and Raegan were in the room.

Luciana entered so quickly that Lauren didn't clearly see who was entering. But he felt that the aura that that woman gave off was undoubtedly strong.

Lauren thought she had to defend herself. She had to show that woman that she wasn't a pushover.

Plus, this woman was kind to Raegan. I'd never seen rich people around Raegan. Lauren guessed this woman was no big shot.

With all these thoughts, Lauren held her head high and arrogantly asked, “Who are you? Are you related to Raegan?

Luciana snorted coldly, turned around and looked at Lauren disdainfully.

"I? Am I related to Raegan? Of course. I am your mother-in-law.

As soon as Luciana said this, there was a dead silence in the room.

The air around him froze instantly.

Finally, Lauren saw Luciana's face clearly. His legs gave out. If she hadn't been holding on to Mitchel's arm, she would have nearly fallen to the ground.

It turned out that the woman was Mitchel's mother. Lauren didn't expect Luciana to come here.

Luciana looked sharply at Lauren. It was like he wanted to swallow Lauren alive. Lauren was so scared that she quickly hid behind Mitchel.

Mitchel was also surprised by Luciana's appearance. She pursed her thin lips and asked, “Mom, why have you come back out of nowhere?”

Luciana looked at Mitchel and scoffed: “You're the good one to ask.

Can't I come back whenever I want? In fact, it's a good thing you decided to come back today. Otherwise, he would not have witnessed such a dramatic scene. Brat! Your wife is hurt, but you don't even know how to comfort her. Instead, you show up here with your lover. How can you be so insensitive? "You are so cruel."

Luciana was furious. He showed no mercy even to Mitchel.

Lauren's face immediately paled. Then, resentment filled his heart.

She was looking forward to marrying into the Dixon family. How dare Luciana call her lover?

Lauren knew that Luciana had always despised her. But now, Luciana even humiliated her like this. Luciana was going too far.

But he couldn't lose his nerve. So Lauren bit her lower lip and said pitifully, “Luciana, it's Lauren. I'm Tommy Murray's daughter. Don't you remember me?

“Lauren…” Luciana repeated. She thought for a while and then said, “Wait. Did you just say you're Tommy's daughter?

When Luciana mentioned Tommy's name, her expression gradually changed.

Lauren's eyes lit up as she saw Luciana's reaction. He smiled and answered: «Yes, I am his daughter. When I was a girl, I used to…”

But before Lauren could finish her words, Luciana shook her head and interrupted, “As far as I know, the Murray family is a family of scholars. They will never have a shameless descendant like you who seduces a married man.

The smile on Lauren's face instantly froze. He was left speechless.

Luciana stared at Lauren with piercing eyes and continued, “If you are really the daughter of the Murray family, I will have a good talk with Tommy. He must be so busy with his work that he doesn't have time to discipline his daughter. "You have to know what kind of person your daughter is."

Luciana paused, snorted coldly, and continued, “Or does he support you for being the other shameless woman? Don't you have anything to object to your behavior? Humph! What kind of father is he?

Luciana was a direct person. He said what he wanted without hesitation.

So it was no wonder that his words were ruthless, directly disparaging Lauren and the Murray family.

Raegan, who had been listening to Luciana and Lauren silently in bed, was still amazed.

She never expected Luciana to be her mother-in-law.

Although Raegan and Mitchel had been married for two years, Raegan never had the opportunity to meet Mitchel's parents. I only knew that they lived abroad.

But one time, Raegan overheard the Dixon family maids mention that Mitchel's parents didn't like her at all.

The reason was very simple. Raegan came from a humble family and did not deserve to marry into the rich and powerful Dixon family.

Since then, Raegan had always thought that Mitchel's parents didn't love her.

But now, Luciana burst into the room with a lunch box for Raegan and scolded Mitchel and Lauren. She even introduced herself as Raegan's mother-in-law and defended her.

Raegan couldn't believe it. However, seeing the depressed expression on Lauren's face made Raegan feel somewhat complacent.

Raegan thought that she must be affected by Lauren's wickedness, since she had been dealing with her frequently these days. That's why he felt like this now.

At that moment, Lauren's face flushed red as if she had been slapped countless times. She felt embarrassed and angry but knew she couldn't lose her temper at that moment. With mixed feelings burning inside her, she seemed strange with that pitiful look she wore.

When Mitchel saw this, he unconsciously frowned and tried to explain: “Mom, it's not like that…”

“Isn't that how?” Luciana interrupted forcefully. He pointed at Lauren and snapped, "Isn't this woman your lover, or is Raegan your wife?"

Hearing this, Lauren's face paled. She felt like she was about to die from the inner anger of being humiliated.
