"Looks like I'll have to pick someone more accommodating," Mitchel said.

"No!" Katie's plea was desperate. «Please, Mitchel, I will do everything you say. I will be completely obedient.

"Then remember not to provoke her," Mitchel directed, his eyes flicking briefly down to Katie's rounded belly with disconcerting intensity.

"Follow my instructions and the Dixon family will ensure the well-being of your unborn child."

«I understand, Mitchel. "I promise you I won't do it again." Katie resolved to stop offending Mitchel, fearing his further wrath.

Why was Katie so determined that the Dixon family recognize her son? Because he had boasted about it for a long time. He couldn't bear the thought of humiliating himself. Regardless of the boy's true parentage, if he was accepted into the Dixon family, his efforts would not have been in vain.

In Katie's view, Mitchel's use of her was a mutually beneficial partnership.

Why was Katie still unscathed after orchestrating so much? Because he managed everything meticulously, without leaving a trace, including the incidents of instigating Lauren and drugging and harming Luciana. What did it matter if others suspected her? Who had proof that she was responsible?

Even if Luciana regained consciousness now, Katie was sure that no evidence could link her to the event. As long as there was no evidence, he was still innocent. No one could bring her to justice.

When Mitchel left, Katie casually dusted her hands off and resumed her haughty stance. However, as she walked, a sharp pain in her toes almost made her scream in pain.

Over the next two days, Raegan had almost finished her work.

With Mitchel's return, previously difficult situations were now easy to handle.

Soon, Raegan learned that Luciana had woken up. Although Luciana still could not speak, regaining consciousness was a major obstacle overcome.

Raegan wanted to visit Luciana, but Mitchel had forbidden her.

Raegan preferred not to make a fuss about this. Mitchel must have had his reasons for the restriction.

However, since their meeting at the restaurant, Raegan had not heard from Mitchel, which made her think that the time had come to act.

Now that Mitchel had made it clear that he wanted to keep his distance, it was unlikely that he would be the first to reach out. Raegan, however, did not wish to remain passive. After all, happiness had to be achieved with effort.

Raegan was delighted to receive an invitation to a banquet that Mitchel was also planning to attend.

Raegan intentionally chose a dress with lotus leaf details, whose high-waisted design hid her true waist. In reality, she had nothing to worry about, since she was in the early stages of pregnancy and her belly remained flat and unnoticeable.

On the way to her destination, Raegan checked the news several times, as she had recently developed a keen interest in entertainment news.

Although Katie had been hooking up with Mitchel, the only new detail was that Katie had coerced Luciana into declaring that the child she was carrying belonged to the Dixon family.

Raegan was convinced that Mitchel would not develop feelings for Katie. It seemed unlikely that Mitchel would suddenly fall in love with Katie after a tragedy when there had been no love before.

However, if Mitchel claimed that he had fallen in love with Katie, for whatever reason, Raegan would have to accept it and move on. She was pregnant again and would soon be the mother of two more children. She couldn't allow herself to be perceived as the other woman, even if it was all fake.

As the evening lights flickered dimly outside the window, Raegan clenched her fists, determined to prove to Mitchel that she could not only share beautiful moments with him, but also endure hardships at his side.
