Chapter 1006

Chapter 1006:

? ? ? ? ?

Without doubting Stefan's words, his father did not object, especially since he was eager to engage Stefan, this intellectually gifted young man.

For the long-term growth of the clan, both intellectual and martial talents were crucial, and Stefan was capable of solving 80% of the family's business dilemmas.

The only problem was Stefan's distant relationship with his father.

After having had several wives and Stefan's mother dying prematurely, Stefan's father barely remembered what Stefan's biological mother looked like.

This time, Stefan's father spared no expense for Stefan's first marriage, ordering a grand celebration. She wanted all of Aurora to witness the Clifford family having a grand wedding.

This fit Raegan's needs perfectly. The more public the celebration, the more likely Casey would become aware of their presence in Aurora and attempt to make contact or send more signals. Still, hope was there, ready for the taking.

However, the protection provided by the Clifford family to Raegan was only because Raegan was marrying Stefan. If they found out that the wedding was all a show, it would be a total disaster.

Erick reminded, “Raegan, make sure you keep up the act whenever you're away. Until you give birth, as long as you are within the walls of the Clifford family mansion, you will be safe. Leave the search for our mother to Stefan and me.

Raegan nodded and replied, “Erick, you have to be careful too.”

Noticing the subtle concern in Raegan's eyes, Erick reassured her, "Don't worry. “If that hidden enemy tries anything, we will identify him immediately to stop his plans.”

The brothers spent some time talking when someone approached the lobby to discuss wedding matters with Erick.

Erick intended to take Raegan with him. But she was overcome with nervousness, her heart racing and feeling somewhat shy. He hesitated.

«Erick, can you go first? "I would like to sit alone for a while."

"Okay," Erick agreed.

She recognized Raegan's anxiety and gently squeezed her hand, comforting her: Don't be nervous. "It's all just an act."

The room quieted when he left.

Raegan's mind was still in a mess. She wasn't familiar with weddings, and even though this one was fake, the idea of ​​being around a lot of people made her nervous.

The waiting room was cozy and he sat on the couch, closing his eyes to try to organize his thoughts.

Suddenly, the door opened and then closed.

Raegan assumed it was Victor and, without opening her eyes, she asked tiredly, "Victor, what did Stefan want you for just now?"

But he got no response. Then, a familiar, fresh scent enveloped her.

Those deep black irises shone intensely, reminiscent of stars fallen from the sky, deep and hypnotizing, with an irresistible charm.

Beyond those captivating eyes was a face painfully familiar to Raegan.

For a brief moment, Raegan's mind went completely blank. He blinked hard, suspecting it was a hallucination. How could Mitchel, who was supposed to be thousands of miles away, appear right in front of her?
