Erick was initially prepared to leave with Janey.

Seeing Raegan motionless, he quickly exited the vehicle and approached her.

“Raegan.

Raegan stood frozen as if she hadn’t heard a thing.

Her hand was cut, and blood dripped onto the ground.

Erick reached out, pulled Raegan close, and asked with concern, “When did you hurt your hand?”

Exhaustion washed over Raegan as she leaned into Erick’s embrace, her voice shaking.

“Erick, I’m so scared.

Mitchel seems not to recognize me anymore.

Erick’s heart tightened, and he reassured her, “He’s probably just concerned about his mother.

Don’t worry too much.

Raegan nodded, yet she couldn’t shake the feeling of distance and unfamiliarity in Mitchel’s eyes.

Erick’s expression grew thoughtful as he suggested, “Let’s head to the hospital first.

Upon reaching the hospital, they found Janey was perfectly fine, showing no signs of distress.

Relieved, Raegan quickly headed to wait outside Luciana’s ICU.

Upon arriving, she spotted Mitchel standing there.

A sudden wave of shyness and homesickness overwhelmed Raegan, causing her to hesitate before approaching Mitchel, her feet glued to the floor.

After a moment’s hesitation, she finally called out, “Mitchel…”

Mitchel looked over, his expression cold and distant.

Though it was still early autumn, Raegan felt a sudden chill.

She wondered if it was just the norm for this part of the hospital, where the emergency room was situated.

Raegan looked at Mitchel with hopeful eyes.

“Luciana will be okay.

Don’t worry…”

“Enough,” Mitchel responded sharply.

Then, he pivoted, keeping his gaze locked on the operating room doors.

The hope in Raegan’s eyes vanished instantly.

She was puzzled by his words.

A rare wave of anxiety washed over her, but she mustered her courage and stepped forward, reaching out to touch Mitchel’s arm.

“Mitchel, are you alright? You…”

As soon as she spoke, he lifted his arm and brushed hers away.

Already weakened by exhaustion, Raegan staggered several steps, even though he hadn’t pushed hard.

Struggling to regain her balance, Raegan looked up at his distant, indifferent face, and her first thought was whether he suffered from amnesia.

Perhaps Mitchel had bumped his head like she did last time and forgotten everything.

Clinging to this hope, Raegan tried to reconnect in the warm, familiar way they used to talk.

“Mitchel, don’t you recognize me? I am…”

When Raegan caught Mitchel’s ambiguous look, she abruptly stopped talking.

His stare had a chilly, almost mocking quality.

Raegan couldn’t understand why he looked at her this way.

With a slight curl of his thin lips, Mitchel said, “Miss Foster?”

His voice echoed in the chilly, deserted hallway, making Raegan shiver.

Raegan’s heart sank as if plummeting from a great height.

If he hadn’t forgotten everything, why was he talking to her so coldly and distantly? Her voice trembled.

“Why are you…”
