Love Unbreakable

Chapter 292 Are You Satisfied, Honey

Lauren hadn't seen Mitchel in a long while and deep down, she was still scared of him. O

Following Raegan's incident, Mitchel cut ties with Lauren, never reaching out to her again.

Later, when Mitchel's father paid Lauren a visit, she didn't hesitate to disclose everything. She told him about Mitchel's plan to oust him from the board using evidence gathered by Kyle.

This information allowed Mitchel's father to turn the tables and assume control over the company. In return, he promised Lauren a fifteen percent stake in Alpire Studio.

After the abortion, Lauren learned about Kyle's fatal accident in the detention center. Everything was falling into place just as she wanted. Around this time, she decided against marrying Mitchel.

Mitchel, deeply affected by Raegan's incident, nearly lost his position in the Dixon Group due to his father's intervention. His future seemed grim.

But, to everyone's surprise, Mitchel made a comeback a year later.

Lauren had to acknowledge Mitchel's resilience.

Meeting Mitchel after such a long gap, Lauren felt a mix of fear and nervousness. He seemed more charismatic than before. Then, she found her old feelings for Mitchel stirring up again.

Lauren looked at Mitchel with a sad expression and said, "Mitchel, I'm just as clueless as you about why Raegan took photos of me."

Turning to Raegan, her voice shaky, Lauren remarked, "Raegan, if you want a photo of me, just say so. I wouldn't say no, you know? Why sneak around to get one?"

Her tone and demeanor were a complete shift from moments ago.

Witnessing this, Raegan was taken aback. Although she had no recollection of Lauren, such a gesture truly surprised Raegan.

"Wow, she's really something. Despite knowing the man was married, Lauren still pursued him. What a bitch!" Raegan muttered to herself.

Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "You know, I think Lauren's right."

Raegan was instantly furious. "What the hell? Why is he defending her?" she cursed in her heart.

Raegan was pissed off the moment she heard Mitchel's words. This jerk was standing up for Lauren again. It was not hard to tell how much she had been hurt in the past, judging from Mitchel's reaction.

Raegan murmured under her breath, "If Mitchel is fond of Lauren, I should make things difficult for this bitch. Maybe if things get too tough, he will detest me and want a divorce."

Raegan, with a smile creeping across her face, playfully asked, "So, do you feel sorry for your mistress?"

Lauren's expression darkened instantly at Raegan's comment.

Here she was, a board member at Alpire Studio, and Raegan dared to mock her publicly!

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mitchel yelled with a cold tone.

Raegan replied with scorn, "She's aware that you're married, yet she continues to pester you. Don't you acknowledge that there's something unclear between the two of you?"

"That's not the case. She and I are not involved in that way," Mitchel said, his tone softening. He tried to calm Raegan. "Look, if you want a photo of her, go ahead. I'll arrange for her to come to the company. That way, you can take all the photos you want."

Lauren was utterly shocked by this. Was this the same Mitchel who was known for his arrogance and self-centeredness? She couldn't believe he was speaking so humbly to someone. And what did he mean by that? His words made her feel she was some puppet, easily controlled by his will.

"Who said I wanted a photo of her?"

Raegan was about to pick up her phone from the floor, not wanting to argue with Mitchel.

Mitchel surprised her by beating her to pick it up. He wiped it with a handkerchief and handed it back to her.

Raegan accepted it with a casual thanks. 

Vicente instantly recognized Mitchel. Stepping up, he put on a flattering smile and said, "Mr. Dixon, is she your assistant? The staff here is so naive. How could your assistant be here flirting with someone else?"

Vicente's words made the doorman's face lose its color. He now realized he had messed with someone he shouldn't.

"She's not my assistant," Mitchel stated plainly.

At Mitchel's words, Raegan recalled Erick mentioning that their marriage was a secret from the public. She didn't expect Mitchel to be so cautious about it. What a jerk!

But then, Mitchel declared, "She's my wife." 

This revelation left everyone, including Raegan, completely stunned.

Raegan hadn't anticipated Mitchel would announce their marriage so openly.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

At that moment, Lauren's face contorted with jealousy. She couldn't believe her ears. Mitchel had just made his relationship with Raegan public, something she had longed for, now taken by Raegan.

When he heard the revelation, Vicente's face changed, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Mrs. Dixon, I didn't realize it was you. My apologies."

He hurriedly gave Raegan an apologetic smile and added, "Please don't take offense, Mrs. Dixon."

Raegan, disgusted by Vicente, showed Vicente's wife her phone, saying, "Mrs. Potter, I accidentally took this photo. It's your call to delete it or not."

At her words, Vicente and Lauren were visibly shaken.

The photo showed Lauren caressing Vicente's leg with her foot, while Vicente clung to Lauren's hand. They did this right in front of Vicente's wife.

Handing Raegan's phone back, Mrs. Potter addressed calmly, "Thank you for bringing this to my attention, Mrs. Dixon."

The very next moment, she slapped Vicente's face fiercely.

Furious, she shouted, "You scoundrel! How dare you!"

Noting Mrs. Potter's anger, Vicente pointed at Lauren, shifting the blame. "She's the one to blame. She seduced me!"

Lauren went pale instantly. "Mr. Potter, stop lying!"

Mrs. Potter looked from Vicente to Lauren, then scoffed, "Where there's smoke, there's fire. Enough with the excuses!"

She hit the nail on the head with her words.

Mrs. Potter, known for her education and sophistication, would always confront her husband first in any issue, and deal with any other involved party later.

"Miss Murray, I am impressed. It seems this is the way how Alpire Studio operates. I'll be sure to warn my friends about it," Mrs. Potter said, then turned and left without a second glance at her husband.

Lauren, hearing this, became visibly anxious. She knew many of Mrs. Potter's friends were important clients at Alpire Studio. Worse, she was involved with some of Mrs. Potter's friends' husbands. If this got out, she'd be ruined.

In desperation, Lauren turned to Vicente. "Please, Mr. Potter, you must speak good of me in front of your wife!"

Vicente looked at Lauren with disdain and snorted. Worried about his position at the company, he quickly distanced himself from Lauren. "You bitch! You're the one who came onto me first!"

"That's a lie! How could you accuse me like that, you... You jerk!" Lauren retorted.

In an instant, the two of them quarreled and tangled with each other. Lauren was no match for Vicente's strength. In the fight, she lost some hair, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

Lauren fell to the ground and desperately grabbed Mitchel's feet. "Mitchel, please, you have to help me..."

Seeing Mitchel's handsome face covered by the coldness, Raegan remained silent. She recalled Erick's words about how men usually disliked women with harmful intentions the most.

Wanting a divorce, Raegan decided to play the bad guy gloating here. She commented, "Mr. Dixon, didn't you notice your little lover asking for your help?"

To her astonishment, Mitchel commanded without any emotion, "Throw them out." 

Raegan was momentarily taken aback.

At Matteo's signal, the bodyguards swiftly escorted Lauren, Vicente, and the doorman out.

The hall then regained its peaceful atmosphere.

Raegan, feeling a mix of disappointment and depression, followed Mitchel into the chamber, though unwillingly.

Once inside, she noticed they were alone and asked, "Where are the other guests?"

Mitchel, unbothered, answered, "They couldn't make it to dinner. Shall we begin?"

Raegan, speechless, doubted his honesty.

Deciding to leave as there were no other guests, she smelt the tempting aroma of the dishes on the table.

Right after she rose, her stomach rumbled loudly. How embarrassing that was!

Mitchel gestured toward the spread of food and asked softly, "You sure you want to head out now?"

Raegan found herself at a loss for words. Damn! He knew her too well! The table was laden with all her favorite dishes.

Raegan replied hesitantly, "I guess it'd be a shame to let all this go to waste."

Hearing this, Mitchel leaned in suddenly, his eyes burning with intensity. "Before you enjoy the dishes, can I ask you something?"

They were so close that Raegan could smell his cologne, making her heart race. Was he trying to charm her?

She leaned back, feeling a bit uneasy, and asked, "What's that?"

"Are you happy with it?" Mitchel inquired.

"What exactly do you mean?" Reagan asked, a bit puzzled by his question.

Mitchel leaned in closer, backing Raegan against the wall. "I mean, are you happy with how I've handled things, honey?"
