Love Unbreakable

Alexis’ Proposition Mitchel tightened his grip on Raegan's shoulder and said through gritted teeth, “You can't say that.” The impact of their divorce on Mitchel was unexpected to Raegan.

Admittedly, Raegan had not fully moved on from him.

When she lost her unborn child, her resentment toward Mitchel intensified.

Her hatred for Mitchel was her coping mechanism to alleviate her pain.

But she realized it was time to let go.

The first step to living a good life was to let go of the miserable past.

Raegan brushed off his hand, straightened up, and said with a neutral expression, “Mitchel, I don't care what's on your mind.

I'm starting a new life, anyway.

Ideally, exes should wish each other well in their future marriages.

If you can't do that, | won't force you.

But please, stay out of my life.” New life? Marriage? Staying out of her life? Mitchel looked up, and his expression turned icy.

“Are you planning to marry someone else?" Raegan met his gaze and pondered over his question. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

What was wrong with her statement? Did he expect her to stay single forever? One relationship with a wrong guy like him did not mean she despised all men.

Having lost her family, she longed to build one of her own.

But she was not in a rush to get into a relationship right now.

Even if she did meet one great man someday, she would be cautious and not blinded by love.

However, these were not her immediate concerns.

Her focus was on bettering herself.

"I'm only 22,” Raegan said frankly.

"Even if I'm not marrying now, | will in the future." Mitchel's hand tensed, and blue veins stood out on the back of it.

Moreover, his heart twisted in pain.

How he wished he could lock her up, so she would not be able to leave him.

How could he let her marry someone else and then expect him to give the damn blessing? "Try it then,” he challenged with a cold expression.

Raegan met his gaze and forcefully pushed him away while stepping out of the elevator.

Mitchel's handsome face grew darker as he watched her leave.

"Raegan, you will come back to my side," he declared with the same certainty Raegan had used when asking for a divorce.

Raegan, unsettled, quickly shut the door behind her and leaned against it.

Mitchel’s assertive tone left her anxious.

Their past was a mix of sweetness and sorrow.

She did not want to experience it all again.

She could maintain her composure once or twice.

But what if this kept happening? How could she ignore it? On the other side, Mitchel stared at the closed door, feeling completely shut out by Raegan.

She seemed adamant to leave him and start anew.

He reminisced about their happier times, her sensitivity, and the way she responded to his flirtations.

Had she forgotten about those? The thought of another man witnessing her shy pouts was unbearable.

Terrible ideas kept sprouting in his mind.

Just then, Mitchel’s phone rang, snapping him out of his thoughts.

It was an urgent call from his grandpa's place.

Mitchel turned to leave.

But before he walked away, he could not resist looking back at the closed door.

Did Raegan really mean it when she said she did not want to see him again? Anyway, it was not her choice to make.

It was late in the evening when Mitchel rushed back.

As he stepped into, he saw the chaos.

Luciana, with tears streaming down her face, huddled by the bed.

Alexis stood by and, for some reason, was averting his gaze from Luciana.

Mitchel’s heart ached at the sight.

Such a strong woman, now so vulnerable.

He approached Luciana to comfort her while also casting a chilly glance at Alexis.

"You've just come back today.

Shouldn't you be resting instead?" His words hinted at Alexis being the cause of trouble.

Alexis’ expression hardened, and he sneered, "I'm your father.

Show some respect!" "Then act like one,” Mitchel shot back.

"Am I the one arguing? I haven't said anything.

She's the one smashing things.

I don't even want to be here!” Luciana sprang to her feet and argued, "You think I enjoy talking to you? If not for Kyler, I'd have divorced you a long time ago!" "Don't flatter yourself.

I didn't come back for you,” Alexis retorted, clearly annoyed.

He then gestured to Mitchel and added, "Come with me.” With that, Alexis headed to the study.

Once inside, Alexis flung a photograph at Mitchel and went straight to the point.

"You're divorced, I know.

Tomorrow, I want you to meet Eloise, the only daughter of the Benton family." “What do you mean?” Mitchel asked, puzzled.

Alexis looked at Mitchel sharply and replied, "What do I mean? You've been messing around for two years.

It's time for you to settle down for a marriage of convenience.” "I decline a marriage of convenience,” Mitchel stated firmly.

As if he had not heard what his son said, Alexis lit a cigar and pressed on, "The Benton family’s new energy projects could boost our foreign market share by 70 percent.

I'm quite pleased with it.

The blind date is just a formality.

You're marrying her whether you like it or not." Mitchel walked to the window, flung it open to air out the cigar smoke, and replied with a hint of sarcasm, "Well, if you're so pleased about it, why don’t you marry her yourself? Did any of your mistresses have actually benefited the Dixon family?” "You..." Alexis choked in anger and coughed violently.

Once he recovered, he slammed his fist on the table and asserted, "Mitchel, this isn't up for discussion.

If you refuse to comply, you're no longer part of this family.” Mitchel shot Alexis a steely gaze.

"I'm not discussing with you, either.

Last I checked, I hold more shares than you.

You're in no position to kick me out.

If I were you, I'd continue to live overseas and stay out of the company's affairs." Alexis' anger subsided into a sneer.

“Your mother and grandfather really taught you well how to piss off your own father." "I will take that as a compliment." At this moment, Alexis' fury was palpable.

He fixed his gaze on Mitchel and asked with frustration, "Can't you tell why I'm doing this? It's for the future of the company! Think of your mother and grandfather." His voice started soft but grew increasingly forceful.

Mitchel's expression turned even colder.

He faced Alexis and pointedly asked, "Are you really doing this for the family and the company?” Alexis was stunned for a second and unconsciously averted his gaze.

“Yes, of course.

This is all for you." A hint of mockery flashed across Mitchel’s eyes.

He had changed his mind.

At last, he sighed resignedly and said, "Fine, I'll go."
