Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 1861

Just then, a passing waiter warned Raegan of a slippery floor up ahead and advised her to use the back exit to avoid the hazard.

Raegan saw oil spilled on the floor ahead, making it slippery, so she went out the back door instead.

As Raegan approached the back door, her gaze lifted, revealing the unexpected sight of a familiar yet unwelcome figure, someone she’d been hoping to avoid.

Why did she always bump into Katie?

Raegan sighed inwardly, feeling such a bad luck to bump into this face.

Her eyes shifted away from Katie, determined to pass by without a word, avoiding any potential confrontation.

Katie’s voice unexpectedly pierced the air.

“What a coincidence, don’t you think?”

Raegan ignored Katie, not wanting to get involved in a conversation and attempted to step around her.

However, Katie grabbed Raegan’s arm, halting her, and scolded, “Where are you going? How rude of you not replying to me!”

Raegan retorted coldly, “Politeness should be shown to people.

” Where threats to her safety and those of her child were concerned, the facade of civility was unnecessary.

Moreover, Raegan held little faith in Katie’s ability to offer anything of value to the discourse.

For it would surely devolve into empty boasting on Katie’s part, a spectacle Raegan had neither the patience nor inclination to endure.

Katie flared up at Raegan’s indirect insult.

“You’re insulting me!”

“I’m direct when I insult someone.

” Raegan replied with a cold smile, “Yes, I’m referring to you.

”

Katie’s anger twisted her face as she glared at Raegan.

“How can you be so vile? Mitchel doesn’t want you anymore! What makes you think he’d ever…”

Katie stopped herself mid-sentence, suddenly falling silent.

She couldn’t let Raegan know that she was aware of her pregnancy.

But Raegan’s instincts kicked in, and she became instantly alert, especially as Katie’s piercing gaze swept over her, causing her palms to grow clammy with nervous sweat.

She wondered if Katie was hiding something, or if Katie had uncovered a secret.

With this thought, Raegan felt a surge of unease and promptly stepped aside, her voice firm but measured as she said, “Please, step aside.

”

Katie stood motionless, her arms crossed defiantly and her eyes blazing with a dark intensity, fixed piercingly on Raegan.

Raegan seemed to be nervous.

How interesting.

Katie’s suspicions grew, and she became increasingly convinced that Raegan’s child was Mitchel’s, her mind racing with the implications.

Raegan, Katie thought, was using the child as a pawn to manipulate Mitchel.

How could Katie allow Raegan to succeed? Even if Mitchel were to die, Katie felt he rightfully belonged to her, and she couldn’t bear the thought of Raegan claiming him.

Katie’s voice dripped with malice as she sneered, “You’re still fixated on stealing my man, aren’t you? Are all women from the Foster family destined to become mistresses?”

Raegan had intended to just leave, but Katie’s venomous words halted her in her tracks.

She spun around, her eyes narrowing as she demanded, “What exactly do you mean by ‘women from the Foster family’?”

Katie’s face fell as she realized her mistake.

She almost revealed a secret about Casey.

She had just been privy to this information from her father’s trusted confidant.

But the truth was still uncertain, leaving open the possibility that Casey had been secretly spirited away by Davey.

What nonsense about the talented Casey’s retirement?

From what she had gathered, Casey had abandoned her husband and their children, carrying on a shameful affair with Davey without even the decency of formal separation.

Katie sneered, “You’re just a Foster woman, through and through!”

Raegan’s eyes narrowed, her voice sharp as she pounced on the slip.
