Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 1863
A wave of discomfort washed over her, urging her to leave.
Suddenly, Katie’s voice pierced the tense air.
“Raegan, please save me! I’m pregnant!”
Raegan was initially puzzled, but as she noticed where Katie was about to fall, her eyes widened in alarm.
Katie was teetering toward the sharp corner of the table, an impact there could be disastrous to the unborn child.
Moved by her natural compassion, Raegan extended her hand without a second thought.
Just then, a sly gleam flickered in Katie’s eyes, and a subtle smile crept across her face, revealing her true intentions.
She knew it.
She knew Raegan would offer a helping hand despite everything.
She reached out toward Raegan, teeth clenched tightly in anticipation.
Her plan was to drag Raegan down, causing Raegan instead to crash against the sharp corner.
However, just as their fingertips brushed, Raegan paused.
Under Katie’s intense and calculating gaze, she swiftly pulled back her hand.
Katie’s expression twisted in surprise.
She hadn’t expected Raegan, usually so kind and impressionable, to resist at such a crucial moment .
“Ah!” A sharp, agonized scream filled the room as Katie’s lower back slammed into the corner of the table.
She collapsed to the ground, pain etched across her face, as large patches of red blood spread ominously from beneath her legs, an unsettling and gruesome sight.
Katie stared at Raegan’s impassive face, her own expression a mixture of disbelief and shock.
She pointed at Raegan, her voice hoarse as she stuttered, “You… You!” The word hung unfinished in the air, repeated but Leading nowhere.
She was baffled by the change in Raegan.
“Do you want to know why I didn’t save you?” Raegan asked calmly, her voice cutting through the tension.
Katie, wincing in pain, fixed her gaze on Raegan, eager for an explanation.
“Because I know the story of the snake and the farmer very well,”
Raegan said, each word deliberate.
“Since I’ve already seen through it, why should I play the role of the farmer?”
Moments earlier, Raegan had noted the unchecked malice and excitement flash in Katie’s eyes.
In that split second, Raegan envisioned the consequences if she had taken Katie’s hand.
Driven by Katie’s force, she would have stumbled, her belly hitting the corner of the table, a perilous situation.
Raegan was pregnant with twins, and the potential outcomes were unthinkable, the loss of her babies or even her life.
There was no alternative scenario.
Katie must have already known or suspected something, which was why she was willing to go to such lengths.
By staging the incident as an accident and being pregnant herself, Katie could deflect suspicion.
However, she hadn’t anticipated Raegan’s transformation.
Despite her upbringing, which emphasized compassion and the chance for redemption, Raegan knew she couldn’t risk everything when faced with clear and present danger.
She couldn’t afford to ignore the threats around her.
Granting someone one chance was enough.
If they squander it without remorse, Raegan resolved not to continue offering opportunities blindly, especially not to a merciless woman like Katie who consistently plotted against her and those close to her.
At that critical moment, Raegan instinctively reached out to help Katie but then swiftly pulled back to safeguard herself since she had seen it clearly.
Katie, a woman adept in deceit, was not merely someone who had fallen and needed assistance.
It was almost certain Katie was attempting to entrap her with such antics.
Katie, seething with rage and pain, cursed repeatedly.
“Bitch, bitch, bitch!” she shouted, her voice thick with fury.
If not for her own physical limitations at that moment, she would have lunged at Raegan, aiming to tear Raegan apart with her own hands.
Raegan gazed at Katie’s livid expression, her resolve solidifying.
