GoodReadWe Have Nothing To Talk About "It's none of your business," Raegan snapped, still fuming over Mitchel’s earlier comments at the
café.
Those words had left her feeling humiliated.
She attempted to free her hand from his grasp, but he tightened his hold on her.
Mitchel's eyes narrowed, emanating a dangerous glint.
"Aren't you satisfied?" Before Raegan could muster a response, he seized her chin and kissed her on her lips.
Gripping her restless hand, he kissed her passionately, their lips and teeth clashing as though he intended to consume her very
essence.
Raegan struggled involuntarily but realized she was drained of energy.
Fearing for the baby's well-being, she ceased her resistance.
After what seemed like an eternity, when Raegan felt her tongue go numb, Mitchel finally released her.
Catching her breath, she finally mustered the energy to reprimand him, “Mitchel, have you lost your mind?" His kisses were
always so ferocious, as if driven by primal desire.
Mitchel squinted at her.
"I'm teaching you how to speak." In other words, he was cautioning Raegan that loose words came at a price.
The thought that she had dared to leave with another man infuriated him again.
Grasping her tightly, he issued a chilling warning, "If you ever dare to be with another man, I'll chain you up like a dog.
Stop flirting with other men.” Raegan was perplexed.
When had she ever flirted? It wasn't entirely Mitchel's fault for thinking so.
Raegan's eyes were captivating and innocent, but they possessed a mischievous twinkle, as if beckoning someone closer.
Annoyed by his embrace, Raegan felt increasingly uncomfortable.
She scowled and said, "Let go of me.” Mitchel remained unyielding.
Leaning in, he kissed her again.
"Not a chance.” Doubts about the paternity test nagged at him.
After his flare-up, he began to sense that something was off.
Although the conclusive results were still pending, he knew that whoever was pulling the strings would soon be exposed.
He had initially come to apologize to her, but events had spiraled out of control.
He claimed to be disciplining her, yet not once had he harmed her.
Rather, he went out of his way to ensure her comfort.
Lowering his voice, tinged with a hint of charm, he said, "I was the one doing all the work just now.
"How dare you!" But Mitchel only tightened his grip on her.
He kissed her hair, caressed her cheek, and murmured, “I'm sorry.
Can you stop pissing me off and confronting me?” Raegan paused, bewildered by his sudden change of tone.
He seemed to have sensed something off about that test.
Raegan assumed he was trying to placate her, solely for the sake of the baby.
"I'm not pissing you off.
I know my worth.
I won't overstep,” she replied.
It had been too long since she truly understood him.
He was soothing her, not out of love, but out of possessiveness.
Should she even slightly cross his boundaries, he'd withdraw his affection, making her pay for her supposed transgression.
Hope had long since left her heart for him.
No longer could she endure the indignities stemming from his distrust.
She longed for only one thing.
It was divorce.
Mitchel sensed the hint of sarcasm in her words.
He didn't anticipate immediate forgiveness in the first place.
He'd angered her, so he had to win her back, however difficult.
He kissed her forehead, declaring, "It's on me.
I'll settle it for you in two days.” Once he uncovered the culprit, that person would not go unpunished.
But Raegan was indifferent.
Whatever the outcome, she just wanted to affirm the legitimacy of their baby.
Her baby deserved to come into this world with dignity.
She said, her voice tinged with apathy, "Once we resolve this, we should discuss divorce." Mitchel was shocked.
Moments earlier, they were locked in intimacy.
The next second, she was coldly talking about ending their marriage.
His fury reignited.
Clenching his teeth, he seethed.
"Do you not feel anything, Raegan? Didn't you just sense my restraint, all for you? And now you want to leave?" "Mr.
Dixon, when did I ask for your service? You're imposing this on me.
Are you not content?" Raegan was now fully alert, impervious to his manipulative words.
With a squint of his magnetic eyes, Mitchel dipped his head and nipped at her neck as if dispelling his frustration.
He declared defiantly, "I won't divorce you, and I don't want to hear you utter that word again!" Raegan shoved him back,
declaring flatly, "If that’s the case, there's nothing left to discuss.
I'll clarify things with your grandpa tomorrow." "Have you lost your mind?" Mitchel’s voice seethed with anger, his eyes flashing
dangerously.
"I won't irritate him.
I'll just let him know I want a divorce.
That's it, nothing complicated.” Raegan's resolve to get a divorce further vexed Mitchel.
"Do you always have to be this defiant, Raegan?" Feeling that arguing further would be futile, Raegan decided it was better to
speak directly with his grandfather.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Mitchel sneered.
All right.
Fine.
A frosty smile crossed his lips.
"Then you're grounded.
You're not leaving this place.” Raegan's expression altered instantly.
"You plan on locking me up again?" The word "again" made Mitchel wince.
He had made similar threats in the past but never followed through.
But right now, he couldn't think of anything better..
He'd have to wait until he'd taken care of things and could muster the energy to tangle with her before he could set her free.
But he didn't say these words.
She'd defied him too often, and he had to rein her in.
Regaining his composure, he flatly stated, "It’s not about you.
I simply want my family to be safe." Hearing his twisted logic, Raegan's eyes reddened.
"Mitchel, even if we are a couple, you have no right to confine me to this ward!" "Remember this, Raegan, we are married.
And Henley isn't someone you should associate with." Just then, Mitchel's phone buzzed.
He glanced at it but didn't pick up.
Raegan knew it was a call from Lauren.
“Why don't you distance yourself from Lauren? She's no better,” she shot back.
Mitchel furrowed his brow.
"That's a different story." Raegan nearly chuckled.
Didn't Mitchel have a closer relationship with Lauren than she ever had with Henley? At least Henley had never overstepped his
bounds, nor shown any particular interest in her.
But Mitchel had always treated Henley poorly.
And he asserted that it was different.
"Alright, if you're so adamant about not divorcing and it's not the same thing, then you're staying here with me in the hospital
today.”
