Chapter 43
Steal Another Man's Wife The man who came out of the lounge was Henley.
At this moment, he wore a khaki windbreaker and a pair of narrow-rimmed glasses.
He had a gentle temperament, making him look elegant and pleasant to the eye.
"I believe that Raegan is the person you need.
I'm confident about it," Henley said lightly instead of answering Cara’s question.
Cara was his cousin, and they were close to each other.
They had a good relationship since they were children.
The corners of Cara’s mouth curved into a smile.
She couldn't deny Henley's words.
Indeed, she needed Raegan in the company.
She would venture out into something new, and she was a bit excited.
Suddenly, Cara asked curiously, "By the way, why do you have to hide? Why didn't you say hello to her just now?" "There's no need.
] don't want her to think that I am helping her," Henley replied gently.
As much as possible, he didn't want Raegan to be burdened with gratitude to him.
"Hmm...
1 wonder why you pay so much attention to her.
Do you like her?" Cara couldn't help teasing.
Henley had been cold as ice in the past few years.
This was his first time showing interest in a woman.
He really cared for Raegan so much.
But soon, Cara's smile was replaced by a frown.
She said, “According to her resume, she is married.
Henley, are you trying to steal another man's wife?” Henley was helping Raegan in secret.
He didn't even come out of the lounge just now.
It seemed Raegan probably didn’t know that Henley had feelings for her.
At the thought of this, Cara's frown deepened even more.
She added, "Henley, many women out there are very eager to be with you.
Why don't you find someone else? Do you want to be called a third wheel or be accused of being a homewrecker?" Henley frowned.
"What are you talking about?” He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and pretended to be indifferent.
All he wanted to do was help and support Raegan.
At this moment, he could only help her in this way.
But he didn't want her to know what he was doing for her.
Cara looked at Henley and shook her head.
She knew she couldn't get him to admit his feelings for Raegan, so she didn't insist anymore.
She and Henley grew up together, so she knew him well.
He looked gentle on the surface, but he was a sophisticated man.
And he was also resolute.
Once he made up his mind, no one could change it.
Cara didn't dwell on the matter anymore.
It doesn't matter if Henley liked Raegan.
As long as he didn't have an affair with Raegan, she decided to just let him be.
After leaving the Alpire Studio, Raegan went directly to the hospital to visit her grandmother.
She couldn't wait to tell Joanna the good news.
As expected, her grandmother was overjoyed at this and even had a good appetite during lunch.
When Raegan returned to Serenity Villas, she packed her things.
She wanted to move back to Crystal Bay because she thought it was more convenient for her.
There was a subway station near her apartment, so it was easier for her to commute to Alpire Studio.
Besides, she only stayed in Serenity Villas to recuperate.
Now that she had recovered, she had no reason to stay there any longer.
Raegan thought Mitchel probably didn't want to see her again.
He must be glad to know that she had moved out.
Raegan had just finished packing when Luciana arrived at Serenity Villas.
Raegan didn't expect this sudden visit.
She hurriedly stuffed her suitcase into the cabinet in a panic.
Luciana waited for Raegan in the living room.
As soon as she saw Raegan going down the stairs, she stood up and walked toward Raegan.
She pulled Raegan affectionately and said kindly, "Raegan, today is my grandpa's birthday.
Let's go to the party together.” Luciana's grandfather was Mitchel's great- grandfather.
Raegan was so startled that she hurriedly waved her hand.
"Luciana, it’s not appropriate for me to go there." Mitchel was the great-grandson of the celebrant, so he must be there, too.
After what happened between them last night, she was a little afraid to see him.
Besides, they were getting divorced soon.
So, it was inappropriate for her to appear on such an occasion and meet his elders.
Luciana must have understood what Raegan meant.
She smiled and said, "I have told my grandpa about you, and he is very eager to see you in person.
Do you have the heart to let him down?” Raegan was still hesitant.
"But..." Knowing what Raegan was worried about, Luciana immediately interrupted, "I know you are not ready to meet the elders of the Dixon family yet.
Don't worry.
Other people don't know about your real identity.
What they know is that you are Kyler's goddaughter." Raegan didn't want to make things difficult for Luciana, so she finally agreed.
Luciana was very happy.
She took Raegan out to select a dress for the dinner party.
When Raegan came out of the fitting room, Luciana was stunned.
The light purple dress she chose fit Raegan perfectly.
Raegan was as beautiful as a fairy from the deepest part of the forest.
Raegan was so dazzling that Luciana couldn't help exclaiming, "Raegan, you look gorgeous!" Actually, Luciana had a secret plan. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
She thought of making her stupid son Mitchel jealous tonight.
People said that jealousy was the best catalyst for a couple.
Luciana wanted Mitchel to recognize his affection for Raegan and treat her well.
Therefore, Luciana decided to give them a push.
Soon, the car pulled over in front of Luciana’s grandfather's villa.
Tonight, the parking lot was full of luxurious cars.
The villa looked magnificent, and many guests from rich and powerful families came.
The villa was bustling with people.
The Lloyd family was also very prosperous during the time of Luciana's grandfather.
They were one of the most powerful families.
But when Luciana’s father took over the family, the Lloyd family lost momentum.
Now, the only pride of the Lloyd family was Luciana's son, Mitchel.
Since Mitchel was Luciana's son, the celebrities in Ardlens were willing to attend the party.
As soon as they entered the villa, Luciana took Raegan to the second floor to meet Luciana’s grandfather.
Today was Luciana's grandfather's hundredth birthday, and the old man was in good spirits.
Raegan greeted him with a happy birthday and wished him well.
He was so happy that he immediately gave her a jade pendant as a gift.
It was an exquisite jade pendant.
Raegan didn't dare to accept it, but Luciana insisted on letting her take it.
When it came to Luciana, Raegan really didn't have the heart to refuse.
Then, Luciana and her grandfather talked about some family matters.
Raegan thought it was inappropriate for her to stay in the room, so she found an excuse to go out and wait outside.
She didn’t wander around.
She just waited in the hall on the second floor.
The hall overlooked the banquet hall on the first floor.
Raegan stood in an inconspicuous corner and watched the scene downstairs.
Then Raegan noticed two women in gaudy clothes After all, she could never share the man she loved with other women.
Raegan didn't want to hear their conversation anymore, so she turned around and was about to leave.
But she didn't expect to bump into someone she didn't want to see.
Tessa wore a turquoise evening dress, which looked good on her.
Since the birthday party was held by the Lloyd family, it was expected that the guests were from rich and powerful families.
So Tessa's mother urged her to attend the party and seize the opportunity to choose a good man for herself.
When Tessa saw Raegan, she didn't seem to be surprised at all.
She approached Raegan and sneered, "Raegan, you're really something.
After all, as Mitchel's wife, your place is the dream of other females.” Actually, Tessa was still shocked when she learned about Raegan's being Mitchel’s wife.
She found it unacceptable.
When she was oblivious to this fact and tried to make things difficult for Raegan, she was dragged out of the Dixon residence, which was embarrassing.
Every time she remembered it, she wished she could tear Raegan apart.
Tessa had no choice but to put up with it.
As long as Raegan was married to Mitchel, she could not hurt chatting near the railing not far away.
"Il heard that Mitchel of the Dixon family is coming tonight.
I haven't seen him yet, and I'm curious what he looks like.
But they say he is gorgeously attractive.
I must seize the opportunity to get close to him.” "Forget about it.
You won't get any chance.
I heard he has been with Lauren of the Murray family for many years.
Lauren has just returned from abroad recently.
There have been tons of rumors about the two of them." "That sickly daughter of the Murray family? I really don't understand why Mitchel likes her.
I don't know how she managed to seduce Mitchel all these years." "Lauren is Mitchel’s first love.
In fact, while Lauren was abroad, he never had relationships with other women.
He really waited for her to come back." "Oh, I'm so envious of Lauren.
I am willing to do anything just to marry Mitchel.” "Ha-ha! You wish! Every woman dreams of becoming Mitchel's wife." The two women chatted as if no one was around.
They had no idea that Raegan heard everything, and she was now a bit upset.
Every woman dreamed of becoming Mitchel's wife? She begged to disagree.
Maybe she was different from other women because she didn't want to be Mitchel's wife now.
After all, she could never share the man she loved with other women.
Raegan didn't want to hear their conversation anymore, so she turned around and was about to leave.
But she didn't expect to bump into someone she didn't want to see.

As long as Raegan was married to Mitchel, she could not hurt Raegan.
But it didn't mean that others couldn't do so.
A hint of viciousness flashed through Tessa's eyes.
She had been holding grudges against Raegan.
Now was the time to settle accounts with Raegan.
Raegan couldn't help frowning upon hearing Tessa’s
