Hector Dixon Mitchel had been bullying Raegan with his thin lips for a long time, forcing her to affectionately address him as honey multiple times.

Before exiting the car, Mitchel straightened Raegan's attire, his gaze fixed on her.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Take good care of yourself.

I'll be back in a few days and we can pick up where we left off.” A blush crept over Raegan's face upon hearing him.

Mitchel was still recovering from injuries, with doctors advising against strenuous activities for at least a week.

Yet he made demands almost daily.

To help him with his recovery, Raegan promised to fulfill his desires so long as he complied with medical advice.

She'd even consulted it with the doctor.

It would be fine for them to make out as long as the movements were not too violent during these two months.

If he was insistent, she’d plead with Mitchel to take it easy and gentle.

Upon reaching the nursing house, Raegan noticed the disheveled nurse, Kendra, sitting outside the ward, her face half-swollen.

When Kendra saw her, tears sprang to her eyes.

"Ms.

Hayes, I was about to call you.

A man claiming to be a relative tried to feed the patient cake.

When I objected, he grabbed my head and slapped me in the face..." Raegan's expression shifted dramatically.

She handed Kendra some money, reassuring her, "]'m really sorry for that, Kendra.

Why don't you go see a doctor while I handle the rest?" Accepting the cash, Kendra broke down, too timid to make a scene.

"I'm not sure I can continue caring for your grandmother." Desperate, Raegan negotiated, "Kendra, you've done a great Job taking care of my grandma.

I trust your capabilities.

And I’m truly sorry for the harm you received when you fulfilled your job.

I promise you that I'll solve the problem as soon as possible.

In addition, I'll even boost your salary by three thousand a month.

Are you okay with it?” Pondering for a bit, Kendra felt a sense of conviction.

Raegan's grandmother, despite her illness, was easy to get along with.

Moreover, quitting could mean losing an employer as understanding as Raegan.
