Mitchel chose not to answer, deeming it not the right time for public disclosure. Moreover, he feared Alexis wouldn't easily give up his schemes.

Undeterred, Katie continued, "I don't think she cares about you, Mitchel."

These words acted like a sharp reminder, stirring the thorns at the bottom of Mitchel's heart once more.

Mitchel hadn't expected an outsider like Katie to see through Raegan's lack of concern for him. Even in the eyes of others, it was evident.

Seeing Mitchel silent, Katie didn't say anything else and took the opportunity to regroup her thoughts before speaking again.

With a reassuring smile, Katie suggested, "Since it's Luciana's idea, why don't we just play along?"

Mitchel looked up at her with confusion when he heard that.

Katie explained, "Even if I'm not around, Luciana will find someone for you.

Why not use me as a convenient excuse? It's no bother to me at all."

Mitchel couldn't help but frown. He disliked this idea.

Undeterred, Katie persuaded him, "There is no need to worry. I don't have any feelings for you, and I don't feel like attending any blind dates my family set for me. This could be a mutually beneficial arrangement if we pretend to be a couple. It's a win-win strategy."

Mitchel neither consented nor opposed.

Without waiting for Mitchel to voice his opinion, Katie continued, "Then it's settled. We don't need to broadcast it to the world. Let's just inform our families that we are in a relationship. Simple as that."

With that declaration, she picked up the lunch box. "I'll eat these for you.

After that, my mission will be completed."

Once out of the office, Katie's expression changed, her innocent smile vanishing instantly.

The happiest time in her life was when Mitchel regarded her as one of his friends. They were so close together back then.

But the moment Mitchel discovered she was a girl, he immediately distanced himself from her.

Heartbroken, she went abroad. However, when she returned, she couldn't tear her eyes away from him.

The need to be with Mitchel grew more and more intense. She thus developed a consuming obsession. But Katie did a great job hiding it.

She wouldn't make a move unless she was certain of the outcome.

Matteo knocked on the door after Katie left.

Upon entering, Matteo sensed that Mitchel's mood had taken a downturn.
