Interestingly, he did not ask why she was at the hospital. This made Raegan feel a twinge of guilt. After all, she was the reason Henley was injured.
Seeing that Henley tried and failed to open the bottle, Raegan twisted the cap off and handed it back to him.
Instead of taking the bottle right away, Henley asked, “Could you help me take a sip?”
It was then that Raegan realized his other hand was also injured.
She tilted the bottle to his lips and let him take a sip.

A few moments later, Raegan put the cap back on the bottle and looked at Henley, her eyes filled with sincerity..
“I’m really sorry, Henley. I apologize to you on Mitchel’s behalf.”
Henley paused for a moment and reassured her, “It’s okay, Raegan. No need to apologize on his behalf. Anyway, how are you? Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. I realized I never formally introduced Mitchel to you.
He’s my husband, and he’s promised me he won’t give you any more trouble.”
Henley smiled.
“It’s fine, really. It was all a misunderstanding. His assistant had smoothed everything over.”
Soon after, they said their goodbyes, and Raegan headed back to Mitchel’s ward.
Inside his ward, Mitchel was looking at some photos sent by a stranger on his phone, and his expression darkened Like a storm cloud rolling in.
He turned to Luis and asked, “Do you know why Raegan was at the hospital yesterday?”
Caught off guard, Luis hesitated but chose his words carefully, knowing Mitchel was in no mood for unwelcome surprises.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“When I saw Raegan, she was talking to Henley, but it might’ve just been a coincidence. Don’t read too much into it.”
Luis was telling the truth. Raegan had never mentioned who she was visiting.
Mitchel, however, recalled Raegan saying she had not come to the hospital for him..
When Raegan walked back into the ward, she found Mitchel alone and in a foul mood.
Without a word, he beckoned her over. Then, he kissed her, a kiss that seemed to stretch on until Raegan had to pull away.
Well, Mitchel was injured, so he should take it easy for now.
However, Mitchel was having none of it. He leaned in, his Lips grazing her ear as he whispered something that made her face turn beet red.
