Let's Wait And See Seeing that Raegan said nothing, Lauren pressed on, "Don't kid yourself just because Mitchel demanded me to clarify the relationship between him and me to you.

Everyone in Ardlens knows how much he cherishes me.

Trust me, if anything happens to me, he'd drop everything, run to my side, and leave you in the dust." Raegan slightly raised her eyebrows and calmly responded, "Are you scared of losing him?” "You!" Lauren uttered in shock.

Well, Raegan was right.

What she feared most was losing Mitchel to Raegan.

How could she not be worried? Lately, Mitchel seemed more tuned into Raegan.

But soon, something seemed to cross Lauren's mind.

Lauren felt it was meaningless to waste her time with Raegan like this.

Therefore, she decided to end the conversation with a smirk.

"Let's wait and see.” As she prepared to leave, Lauren's eyes lingered on Raegan's belly, her gaze filled with malice.

The thought that Raegan could sleep with Mitchel at any time and that Raegan was even pregnant with his child filled her with jealousy.

Lauren wished she could skin Raegan alive and make the latter out of the picture forever.

Without Raegan, she would already have become Mitchel's wife.

And soon, very soon, she would make Raegan pay.

Once Lauren was gone, Raegan stayed put for a moment and tried to steady her racing heart.

Lauren's questions had struck a chord.

Lauren had asked her whether she was afraid, and the answer was a resounding yes.

Raegan felt even more on edge than Lauren.

If Mitchel were out of the picture, Lauren would still have her family as a safety net.

Raegan, on the other hand, had only her grandmother in her corner.

Sometimes, people clung to the hope like a life raft.

Even when the odds were long, they would hang on and keep pushing until all hope was gone.

And this was exactly how Raegan felt after the whirlwind events.

At this moment, Raegan wandered along the hospital corridors, lost in thought, when she bumped into Henley.

With a bandage on his arm, Henley bent down to pick up the water bottle with difficulty.

Seeing this, Raegan stepped in, grabbed the bottle, and handed it to him.

"Raegan,” Henley greeted with a warm smile.

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.
