Cruel To Her The expression on Mitchel's face froze for a moment.

It turned out that today was Lauren's birthday.

He always remembered her birthday.

But this year, he had forgotten it for the first time.

A few years ago, Mitchel witnessed something disgusting, making him lose his mind.

Before he knew it, he was already submerged in a freezing cold lake.

If it weren't for Lauren's desperate efforts to save him, he would have died long ago.

And that day was her birthday.

That was why her birthday was one of his most unforgettable days.

Since then, Lauren's birthday had become one of Mitchel's top priorities.

No matter how busy he was, he always celebrated it with her.

At this moment, Lauren reached out and gently tugged at Mitchel’s sleeve.

And when he didn't pull away, she felt relieved.

She looked at him pitifully and said, "Mitchel, I've been waiting for you since three o'clock." Winter was almost approaching, so it was already cold now.

Lauren wore thin clothes, and her nose turned red from the cold.

She looked vulnerable and pitiful.

Mitchel withdrew his hand.

His brows furrowed tightly, and he said in a cold and displeased voice, "Stop being silly.” Although he spoke in a disapproving tone, Lauren felt a touch of sweetness in his words.

For her, his words meant he was worried about her.

And this made her feel like it was worth staying out in the cold for so long.

She glanced at Raegan in the car complacently, feeling a sense of satisfaction.

Lauren assumed Raegan must have done something to gain Mitchel's sympathy and deliberately asked him to visit her grandmother's grave together.

But Lauren believed that Raegan's efforts were futile.

After all, today was her birthday, and she knew that Mitchel would definitely celebrate with her on this special day.

Jocelyn, standing nearby, also spoke up.

"Mr.

Dixon, Miss Murray got up at five this morning and baked a birthday cake for herself.

She wanted to eat it with you.” Mitchel looked at Jocelyn with a frown.

"And you just let her do such a stupid thing?” Mitchel spoke in a voice devoid of emotion, and it made Jocelyn shudder involuntarily.

Mitchel had feelings for Lauren, not for her.

Jocelyn was worried that she might inadvertently touch a sensitive spot and cause trouble.

Jocelyn hastened to explain for herself, "Mr.

Dixon, I tried to convince Miss Murray not...” But before she could finish her words, Lauren interrupted, "Mitchel, don't blame Jocelyn.

It's not her fault.
