"You made promises to me, too! You had me believe we'd return home together. What became of that promise?" Feeling as if a massive weight compressed his chest, Mitchel tried to speak, but words failed him, his voice lost. "Have you ever imagined what it feels like to have your skull shattered against a wall, your insides crushed?"

Mitchel's voice quivered, his pale face visibly shaken.

"Stop...

Don't say any more..."

But Raegan seemed lost in her torment, gesturing toward the bandage on her head, her lips quivering as she relived the terror.

"They bashed my head against the wall, trampled over me. I felt my body breaking apart and felt my unborn child slipping away. At that moment, my hatred for you was all-consuming. It was you who made me believe in you. But yet again, you abandoned me."

As Raegan recounted the horror, the despair engulfed her again.

Enduring the loss of her child was like enduring ceaseless torment.

The anguish in her heart was akin to salt in an open wound, her body shaking uncontrollably.

Each word from Raegan struck Mitchel as if he were experiencing the pain firsthand.

When she spoke of "believe in you", those words pierced Mitchel's heart like icy daggers, bringing him unbearable agony.

It was his own actions that had shattered her trust...

The torment was evident on Mitchel's face, but to Raegan, it seemed insignificant compared to her own ordeal.

She continued, her gaze fixed on him, "That day, I wanted to trust you once more. But that stupid thought cost me my child and threw me into hell. You taught me that while one may have dreams, delusions are dangerous."

Her belief in his promise to return home together had exacted a horrific toll.

Mitchel's strength ebbed away, his once erect stance collapsing. His dark eyes brimmed with an agony beyond words.

"I'm sorry, Raegan... I'm so sorry..."

He knew his endless apologies could never mend the hurt he caused Raegan, yet sorry was all he could muster. Had he foreseen such a tragic outcome, he would have never left her side, regardless of the circumstances.

"It's not necessary," Raegan coldly dismissed his late apology, finding it more repulsive than any insincere affection.

"Now, I can't even muster hatred for you. If you bear any guilt, let's divorce. From then on, we're nothing but strangers," she stated, her voice devoid of any emotional undertone.

Her indifference was so profound, it seemed devoid of love or hate.
