Love Unbreakable

Are You Defending Him Indeed, Raegan had intentionally diverted her focus, striving to put the issue out of her mind.

Yet, the day following Lauren's birthday party, the media was flooded with news about Mitchel and Lauren.

Several guests at the party had informed reporters that Mitchel and Lauren were deeply in love, and whispers about their upcoming wedding were verified by a source close to them.

Given that this information had gone public on social media platforms, it was evident that Mitchel had given his silent approval.

With his influence, quashing such rumors would have been effortless for him.

Consequently, the subject Raegan had fought so hard to ignore resurfaced, making denial futile.

Raegan felt a pang of sadness but concealed it skillfully.

Dropping her gaze, she nibbled on her straw.

"Henley, I apologize, but discussing this isn't something I can do right now." Henley responded with a kind smile, "That's alright, Raegan.

My primary concern is your happiness." However, Raegan said earnestly, "Henley, | believe it’s best if we maintain some distance going forward." Caught off guard, Henley nearly fumbled his coffee cup.

Collecting himself, he asked softly, "Did he intimidate you again?" Raegan simply shook her head.

"No, it's just that helping me always seems to hurt you, and I can't bear that guilt.

We should stop meeting each other.” Raegan's reasoning was straightforward.

She no longer wanted to inflict pain on those who showed her kindness.

Henley sensed her intentions clearly from her earnest expression.

Yet, the more she pushed him away, the more he yearned to be near her.

Unfazed, he told her, "I’m not afraid of whatever he might do, Raegan.” Still, Raegan was unyielding.

"I appreciate that, Henley, but my mind is made up.

I can’t bring myself to harm you further.” Observing Raegan's unwavering determination, Henley's expression turned somewhat gloomy.
