Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 1829
Once the car halted, Mitchel still clutched Raegan’s arm tightly, his eyes betraying a rare flicker of panic.
“Have you lost your mind?” he said through gritted teeth, his voice tense.
Still seething with anger, Mitchel pressed his tongue against his molars and said, “Did you really plan to jump out of a moving car on the highway? Did you want to end your life?”
Raegan struggled against his firm grip on her arm and snapped back, “I wasn’t trying to kill myself, and it’s not worth it for you anyway.
”
Mitchel froze, his face draining of color, his fingers turning white from the strength of his grip.
After a heavy silence, he managed to say, “It’s best if you can think this way.
”
Raegan bit her lip, overcome with sadness that was hard to express.
Still, she managed a bitter smile.
“Mitchel, I’ve already thought this way for a while.
Since we last saw each other, I’ve treated you like a stranger.
Why can’t you do the same? What’s all this about? I never comment on your upcoming marriage to Katie, and you know that…”
She resumed speaking after pausing for a bit, her voice rough.
“You knew Katie was involved in that kidnapping incident, but you still chose to marry her.
She’s a merciless murderer, and you’re covering for her.
Are you trying to leave me with nowhere to go in Ardlens?”
Raegan’s eyes welled up with tears as she pressed him, “Mitchel, who here is truly out of their mind?”
Mitchel gripped Raegan’s arm tighter, and no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t break free.
He didn’t let go, holding on as if he feared she might vanish right before his eyes.
Raegan struggled multiple times, her arms aching from being pinched.
“Let me go! I want to get out of this car! I don’t want anything to do with you, nor do I want to share the same air! Can’t you stick to your word? Meet and part ways, isn’t that what you said?” she exclaimed.

“Meeting and parting ways…” Mitchel echoed quietly, as though speaking to himself.
His eyes reddened as he replied hastily, “I must be the crazy one.
Just see me as crazy, but my actions are for your own good…”
Before he could finish, Raegan cut him off with scornful laughter.
“Mitchel, since when do you have the right to decide what’s best for me? Aren’t I a stranger to you now? What’s the point of being nice?”
Without waiting for Mitchel’s response, Raegan pressed on, “Think about it.
Since you’ve returned, have you done anything but embarrass me and make me feel worthless? What good have you done for me?”
Raegan fixed her gaze on Mitchel’s troubled face, demanding, “Can you answer me that? What have you done that’s actually helped.
”
“I…” Mitchel struggled to replace the words of apology that lingered on the tip of his tongue, yet he couldn’t utter them.
A cool breeze swept over, jolting Mitchel awake.
With multiple threats still in the picture, he couldn’t openly explain to Raegan why he was being this cold.
All he could offer was a clear way forward for her, free from worries or burdens.
With this in mind, Mitchel pulled himself together.
His face became cold and stern as he said, “Sorry for being nosy.
”
Raegan clenched her fists, unable to respond.
She was exhausted, thoroughly so.
She had rebuilt her hopes over and over, only for them to be shattered repeatedly by Mitchel.
Raegan laughed at herself.
Just moments ago, she had thought he still cared about her, and maybe he couldn’t let her go.
She assumed everything he did had a reason behind it.
However, it seemed to be all in her head since she couldn’t replace any hints about his looking out for her.
She overestimated herself.
Clenching her teeth, Raegan fought back the rising sourness in her throat before saying slowly, “Mr.
Dixon, I hope you won’t interfere like that again.
I don’t need you to look out for me, and it annoys me.
If we run into each other again, just meet and part ways, okay?”
