Chapter 608

? ? ? ? ?

Noticing that Raegan was still awake, Mitchel took the opportunity to broach a topic. "Did my mother hit you today?"

Luciana's fragility meant that her slap had not landed with force, and there was no longer any visible mark left.

But when Luciana slapped Raegan, Mitchel was caught between sleep and wakefulness. The noise he heard seemed almost surreal, leaving him unsure if such an incident had actually taken place.

Raegan looked down, fiddling with her fingers. Before, with Mitchel unconscious, he hadn't felt much. Now, being asked directly by him, she felt a little wronged.

Instantly, Mitchel's eyes hardened with ice, initially suspecting it was in his dream, only to realize it was true. He tenderly kissed Raegan's cheek, promising, "I'll do right by you."

«Let it be. I haven't suffered much. "I'll just be more cautious in the future." Raegan did not want to create discord between Luciana and Mitchel.

According to Raegan's memories, Luciana had always been kind and reasonable, although Luciana's behavior towards her had changed due to Mitchel's subsequent injuries. The way Luciana was behaving today seemed quite peculiar to Raegan.

"Don't you find Luciana's behavior a little strange?" After pondering for a while, Raegan couldn't reconcile Luciana's drastic change in manners, even though Luciana was heartbroken.

"She had changed a lot after I distanced myself from her five years ago," Mitchel revealed.

“Five years ago…” Raegan wondered if Mitchel knew about the conversation Luciana had had with her.

Raegan wasn't sure. Mitchel didn't seem willing to delve any further into the past.

After a while, Mitchel commented: -My mother depends a lot on Katie. If you happen to see them together, try not to get angry.

Raegan shook her head. "I won't do it". His principles were never dictated by others. Nor did he bend to please those who held a grudge against him. However, Luciana's change of attitude always left her somewhat regretful.

Reflecting on the day's events, Raegan asked, "What exactly is Henley's plan?"

Mitchel had been aware of the existence of Alexis' illegitimate son, keeping a watchful eye at all times. Despite an exhaustive search, he was unable to locate his stepbrother. Now, it made sense. He did not locate Alexis's illegitimate son because he had been hospitalized after the car incident.

In response to Raegan, Mitchel stated: "He intends to rise to power."

Although Raegan did not understand the ins and outs of the internal dynamics of the Dixon Group, he had faith in Mitchel's abilities.

Looking at the country's landscape, it seemed unlikely that anyone could overthrow Mitchel from his position of strength and influence. Therefore, Raegan remained unfazed.

Seeing her calm demeanor, Mitchel mockingly pinched her rosy lips, asking, "What if they really marginalize me?"

Still irritated by her earlier uneasiness, Raegan replied peevishly, "I'll sell you to a brothel for a decent sum."

Mitchel nibbled fiercely on her earlobe, his voice thick with desire. "If I end up in a brothel, who will take care of your needs?"

Raegan's ears turned red as Mitchel nibbled, and she protested, "Who said I need you to take care of my needs?"

Without realizing it, her voice was sweet and tempting.

Mitchel's Adam's apple bobbed slightly and his lips approached again, his voice hoarse. "Do you blame me for not attending to your needs?"
