Chapter 119

? ? ? ? ?

Raegan was pinned down by Mitchel, unable to move.

Anger welled up inside Raegan when she realized she had come to see Lauren. Again! To vent her rage, she raised her head suddenly and bit him just as his lips touched hers.

The bite was so strong that his lip bled in a matter of seconds.

Mitchel froze. After staring at her for a second, he let out a subtle laugh.

Raegan furrowed her eyebrows, confused. Was he angry or amused?

At this moment, Mitchel raised his eyebrows. The soft light cast a hazy glow on his exquisitely refined face. With streaks of blood on his lips, he gave off a hypnotizing and seductive charm that she had only seen in the movies.

Realizing that he was slowly pulling her in, Raegan instinctively turned her head away.

Raegan silently shouted to herself, Don't let that face fool you, Raegan! This man will surely use his face to bewitch you before you know it!

“Why are you angry?” Mitchel asked suddenly.

«Who says I'm upset? I'm not! Raegan was irritated by his presence.

Mitchel gently bumped his nose against hers. Although it didn't hurt, it was incredibly suggestive.

«Be patient with me. "I'll kick Lauren out in three days," he said.

"Whatever you want."

Raegan rolled her eyes, showing no signs of happiness. She took his words with a pinch of salt.

All I had in my head to say to him was, Do you even believe a word that comes out of your own mouth? Why do you think I would do it?

His nonchalance made Mitchel feel a dull ache in his heart. He had come on purpose to please her, but she didn't even notice his efforts, much less appreciate them.

«This time I am very serious. As soon as he leaves, we can live happily as newlyweds.

Raegan's eyelashes trembled slightly.

I had already heard this phrase many times.

It wasn't the first time he had made this promise. And each time it broke it and caused him more pain.

I was fed up. That man was not trustworthy.

Oblivious to her thoughts, Mitchel lowered his head and gently kissed her eyes, but she pulled away before he could go any further.

He didn't force her. With his hand on her waist, he said softly, "Stay with me a little longer."

Action spoke louder than words. He figured all he had to do now was prove with facts that he was serious.

Raegan refused: “No. "Go sleep somewhere else."

He lowered his head, lightly nibbled her earlobe, and whispered, "But I want to sleep with you, darling."

Those ambiguous words made Raegan feel even more trapped than she already was. He gave her a resentful look.

"That?" Mitchel chuckled, raising an eyebrow.

«Do you want to swallow me so badly?

«Not even in dreams. "Let go of me." Raegan tried to move, feeling uncomfortable in his embrace.

Mitchel suddenly let out a muffled growl, followed by a low warning through clenched teeth.

"If you don't want to sleep with me, don't turn me on."

Raegan stilled immediately, fearing what he would do to her if she continued to move.

Mitchel looked really tired. Within a few minutes, he was snoring softly next to her.

On the other hand, Raegan had so much on her mind that she couldn't sleep.

Ten years was a long time, but it had passed in an instant.

A decade ago she had fallen madly in love with that man without thinking twice.

At that moment, he believed that this love would last forever.

Little did he know that in a few months their love would be threatened and diminished by Lauren, who had Mitchel wrapped around her little finger.

Although she hated being second in contention, it would take a lot of effort to stop loving Mitchel.

A hint of bitterness flickered in Raegan's eyes. He knew he would only learn from his failures.

It was drizzling.

Tessa, with a hat over her coat, was still soaked and disheveled in the old alley.

His job search had once again ended in vain.

The scandalous photos had reached everywhere. The money Lauren paid him was only enough for two weeks. Now she was ruined and helpless.

Neither the Lloyd family residence nor Jacob's house would let her enter.

Now it was like a plague to them. Life was hell for her lately.

Tessa thought about taking her anger out on Raegan. But since she had no one to protect her or even know Reagan's whereabouts, she had to give up on the idea for now.

Annoyed, she pushed open the door to her rented apartment.

The sight that greeted her made her jump. In bed, a naked man and woman were touching each other.

When he heard the door open, he looked towards them.

«Ah! It's you... Tessa, come in. Kenya's voice shook, but she had the decency to at least cover herself with the sheet.

After being kicked out, Kenya had started sleeping around to pay the bills. In the ghetto there were no well-paid or comfortable men, only rude ones who could barely support themselves.

Kenya enjoyed being the center of all eyes, even if they came from the poor.

He lived for it. Since she realized that she was not going to get any younger, she decided to have fun before she became too old and wrinkled.

Tessa's lips pursed in disgust as she looked at them. The next second, he ran out without closing the door.

The naked man licked his lips and said, “Your daughter is pretty.

When can I try it?

Kenya slapped him hard and warned him, “Don't even think about it! "My daughter is reserved for someone important."

Tessa had the same opinion. As far as she was concerned, if Raegan hadn't been so despicable, she would have married a rich man by now.

That unfortunate woman was to blame for all her misfortunes!

Tessa swore that as soon as she got herself together, the first thing she would do was get revenge on Raegan, who had gotten her into this mess. We had to put an end to that bitch.

As Tessa imagined knocking Raegan over and stepping on her, she got in a much better mood.

Unfortunately, it was short-lived. Two sleazy men appeared out of nowhere, approaching Tessa with tattered hats that covered half their faces. As they passed her, one of them slapped her on the butt.

“Nice ass, baby!”

They fist bumped each other as they lewdly described her butt.

Tessa burst out.

«Are you blind? How dare you touch my ass and then comment on it? Little shits! Apologize to me right now."

He hated impolite poor people to the core, all of them.

When she was still rich and carefree, she never restrained herself from mentally and physically mistreating all those servants every day. He even once injured the old butler, who ended up dying two days later.

His family hid it, stating that the cause of death was a brief illness. The truth was easily buried after paying money to the right people.

In Tessa's opinion, those of the lower class did not deserve any respect, much less touch her. They belonged under his feet.

People like them were asslickers who would do anything to get crumbs from the table of the rich.

Although he had fallen from grace, he still considered himself superior to them.

Tessa continued to growl when they didn't do what she said: “Fuck you! If you love your life, you better get on your knees and ask me for forgiveness. For your information, I can crush you like ants.

Having used this same arrogance on many people in the past, Tessa had reason to believe it would work now.

Ordinary people always cowed before her as soon as she raised her voice.

But these two men were different. They smiled with satisfaction as they approached her slowly.

Suddenly, a loud slap echoed through the air.

In an instant, the thinner man of the two slapped Tessa across the face.

After this, the plump man followed suit, delivering three resounding slaps.

Tessa's mouth filled with blood instantly. His muscles tensed and the urge to curse them grew stronger. But before she could curse, the men grabbed her and dragged her towards the pile of trash in the nearby alley.
