He disliked seeing Raegan lost in thought, her mind possibly wandering to Mitchel.

The thought nagged at him incessantly.

"Raegan," Henley called out, breaking her reverie.

Raegan turned to him and asked, "Yes? What is it?"

"Do you ever regret it?" Henley asked, his tone serious.

Raegan, initially perplexed, thought he was referring to their journey together for his abroad treatment. She offered him a reassuring smile, her voice carrying a comforting tone, "Of course not, Henley. I'm here for you, and I'll stay by your side until your leg is completely healed."

Henley's gaze intensified as he asked, "What if my condition is incurable? What if I remain disabled forever?"

Raegan fell silent, caught off guard.

The future hadn't been something Raegan had considered in depth.

Henley's unexpected question left Raegan momentarily speechless, her hesitation clearly unsettling Henley. Abruptly, he reached out, gripping her other hand firmly.

Startled, Raegan's eyes widened as she met his gaze.

The car door was pulled open. There stood Mitchel, his gaze piercing as he observed their entwined hands, his expression turning into a sneer.

Feeling dissected under his scornful eyes, Raegan was shaken.

"Get out," Mitchel's voice was icy as he addressed her.

Raegan instinctively tried to withdraw her hand, but Henley's grip was unyielding.

Henley, meeting Mitchel's stern look, said evenly, "Mr. Dixon, we have a plane to catch."

Mitchel, exuding a chilling aura, disregarded Henley and pulled Raegan forcefully from the car.
