Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 223

? ? ? ? ?

Mitchel showed no mercy to himself as he stabbed the knife deep into his thigh. His usually serene face was now covered in beads of sweat. He gritted his teeth and gathered all his strength to pull out the knife.

“Hmm!” Raegan uttered. Although she was gagged, she could not contain her anguish. Their muffled, heart-rending screams filled the air.

She shook her head vehemently at the camera, tears cascading down her cheeks.

"No! Mitchel, don't believe her! Tessa won't let you go.

Unfortunately, Mitchel couldn't hear their silent pleas.

Raegan had already discovered Tessa's intentions. Tessa wanted to weaken Mitchel, and then she would kill them both.

Simply put, Tessa couldn't let them escape unscathed.

At that moment, Raegan felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on her chest, making breathing a struggle.

Since when had he started to worry more and more about Mitchel?

Raegan had told herself that she would never fall in love with him again. But at that moment, he realized that the ice in his heart had melted once again into a river flowing through it.

“Tessa laughed maniacally, which sounded scarier than a scream. With a sly smile, he sneered, “Well done, Mitchel.”

The stab brought immense satisfaction and relief to Tessa. His face suddenly became serious, and he urged, "Do it again."

Mitchel's fingers closed around the handle of the knife and he stabbed it mercilessly into her leg a second time. Then he took it out and threw it on the ground.

"Are you happy yet?" Mitchel scoffed.

"Yeah. Now go alone to the field. If I see someone else, I will.

Tessa brought the knife to Raegan's neck and mimicked a cutting motion.

The blade nicked Raegan's delicate skin, leaving a trail of blood down her neck.

Mitchel's expression changed radically and he growled, "I know!

But don't do anything to him."

Mitchel, who was normally calm and collected, seemed to lose his cool in an instant.

The video call ended abruptly.

Seeing Raegan's tearful face, Tessa scoffed, "What? Are you touched?

Unable to speak, Raegan fixed Tessa with a fierce glare.

Finally, Tessa removed the cloth from Raegan's mouth and looked at her with a frightening gleam in her eyes.

«Later I will check if he is willing to die for you. Men are fickle and cowardly.

When faced with a real threat to their life, they may not be willing to sacrifice themselves for you.

«Tessa, you are crazy! I'm not as twisted as you. I don't need him to die for me!

Mitchel carried a heavy load. He was running a vast company, with numerous employees who depended on him, not to mention the expectations of his grandfather and parents. His entire family counted on him.

What he had done for her had touched Raegan deeply. But she didn't need him to risk his life to prove anything.

Therefore, he could not allow Mitchel to take any more risks for his sake.

With a plan in mind, Raegan provoked Tessa.

«You are pathetic, Tessa.

"With billions of people in the world, you have no one to love and no one loves you."

Tessa clenched her jaw and stared at Raegan.

«It's all your fault that I ended up like this! If it hadn't been for all of you, I would still be a decent lady in a wealthy family!

Even then, Tessa showed no remorse and continued to blame others for her downfall.

«Tessa, no one forced you or hurt you. You chose to victimize others for your selfish gain. "Now you face the consequences of your actions," Raegan said. His words hit the nail on the head.

Tessa never expected Raegan to lecture her at that moment.

"Shut the hell up, you motherfucker!"

In a fit of rage, Tessa swung the knife at Raegan.

Raegan rolled and dodged the knife. He used the momentum to move his bound hands forward.

When Tessa swung the knife again, Raegan saw the opportunity and pushed her hands forward.

The knife cut the ropes binding his hands. But at the same time, he also cut his forearm.

Blood gushed from the cut.

Despite the pain, Raegan lunged to pry the knife from Tessa's hands.

Having been abused for a long time, Tessa was weak and no match for Raegan in terms of fighting.

Tessa's original plan was to torture Mitchel upon his arrival, exhaust him, and then finish off Raegan in front of him. After that, he would finish off Mitchel as well.

However, Tessa had not anticipated Raegan's bold counterattack.

Tessa's only advantage was the knife in her hand. Maddened, she swung it repeatedly, attempting to slash Raegan's face.

Overwhelmed by the onslaught, Raegan stepped back and asked for the time.

Despite having his hands free, his injured forearm made his movements considerably difficult.

Tessa stood up and laughed maniacally. His face was contorted and ugly.

"Bitch! I planned to torture you slowly before taking your life. But since you are so eager to fight me, I will let you die now!

With that, Tessa brandished the knife and charged.

Raegan avoided a direct confrontation and simply dodged Tessa's attacks.

Now that Raegan was no longer under Tessa's control, Tessa couldn't use her as leverage against Mitchel. Raegan hoped that once Mitchel arrived, they could defeat Tessa together.

However, Raegan had underestimated the extent of Tessa's madness.

Tessa took a handful of white pills from her pocket and swallowed them in one gulp.

They were pills that the fisherman used as stimulants. They were made with a unique fish oil formula. After consuming two, that fisherman became exceptionally strong and dominated Tessa.

Some time later, Tessa ground up several pills and mixed them with the fisherman's water, causing his death.

Taking a few pills was not dangerous. In fact, he would become remarkably strong.

With renewed strength, Tessa lunged at Raegan and cursed, "Go to hell, bitch!"

Before Raegan knew it, Raegan was pinned to the ground by Tessa.

The edge of the knife was getting dangerously close to Raegan's eyes.

Raegan grabbed Tessa's hand tightly and tried with all her might to stop Tessa from stabbing her.

However, the strength induced by Tessa's pill was overwhelming, and Raegan felt his own resistance wane.

In a desperate move, Raegan kneed Tessa in the lower abdomen. The two struggled and rolled toward the edge of a poorly repaired platform.

The knife in Tessa's hand moved and was now pressing even harder on Raegan's neck.

The distance between life and death was less than a centimeter.

Slowly, Raegan's grip weakened as exhaustion took over her. He could only watch in despair as the tip of the knife approached his skin.

Just then, a thunderous roar echoed from the floor below.

“Raegan!”

Raegan's gaze shifted and landed on Mitchel. Around him were bags of money.

Mitchel's heart trembled as he looked up. The grief and pain on her beautiful face were clearly seen in the moonlight.

Tears filled Raegan's eyes and ran down her forehead until they fell to the ground.

With what strength he had left, he bit his lip and whispered, "Goodbye, Mitchel."

It seemed like he was at death's door.

When his strength was exhausted, the knife would pass through his neck and he would fall from the building.

Either way, it would be a fatal end for her.

Seemingly on the brink of sanity, Mitchel ignored the blood gushing from his legs and frantically climbed the stairs.

Fear invaded him inside.

In a desperate attempt to maintain his strength, he punctured the wounds in his thigh to push himself beyond the limit.

“No, no, Raegan. You can't die. You can't…

Tears welled up in Mitchel's stoic expression, blurring his vision.

The instant he reached the second floor, a figure plummeted from above.

Boom! The sound of the impact was deafening.

Mitchel's gaze locked onto a vivid crimson puddle on the ground.

The next second, his strength left him and he collapsed to the ground.
