Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 1969
Erick simply wanted Raegan to be happy.
Since she still had feelings for Mitchel, he refrained from rushing her into any relationship or marriage.
Even if she never married again, with him, their father, and her soon-to-arrive children to care for her, she would face no hardships.
“It’s fine.
This is a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Stefan wants to leave the Clifford family’s registry and start his own venture.
The first requirement is marriage, otherwise, his father won’t release the necessary documents.
” Erick reassured her, “You know him.
He wouldn’t want to hurt anyone without a real attachment, and this situation helps him.
”
Raegan nodded.
“If Stefan replaces someone he cares about in the future, and if she’s bothered by our past, I’ll definitely help clear things up.
”
Erick nodded in agreement.
Raegan stared at the window, deep in thought.
“Erick, do you really think we can replace our mother this time?”
Erick looked down.
“Don’t worry.
We’ll replace her.
”
Raegan was supposed to fake a marriage with Stefan because Erick discovered that the criminal with the attempt on Raegan’s life at the International Banquet Center had ties to Aurora.
However, the criminal was not related to the Maxwell family and lacked the Maxwell family’s clan tattoo.
In the one month since Raegan’s return, the mastermind had made some more murderous attempts against her.
The determination to end Raegan was evident.
Erick’s investigations confirmed those assassins no ties to the Maxwell family, and the past bounty on Raegan had been revoked long ago.
So who was so persistently trying to kill Raegan?
Just as Erick felt at a loss, Stefan reported that the special herb Erick had him to monitor had been purchased.
The buyer, however, vanished without a trace into Ardlens.
Erick was restless.
That herb, Angelica Sinensis, was a signal agreed between him, Raegan, and Casey, used whenever one encountered difficulties to signify the safety for now.
Now, only that herb had been bought, and it was the agreed-upon six grams.
Six grams barely covered a single decoction, clearly Casey’s way of saying she was alive and in Aurora.
Erick was eager to fly to Ardlens immediately to investigate himself, but there were complications.
Landen’s health was deteriorating, and Raegan was only two months away from giving birth.
Moreover, with the continuous threat of the assassins, leaving Raegan’s side even for a short period was risky.
Yet, missing this clue to Casey’s whereabouts might mean losing the chance forever.
The individual responsible for Casey’s disappearance was incredibly cunning, leaving no trace behind.
Without this clue with the herb, they would have no leads to pursue Casey’s whereabouts.
Lingering in Swynborough meant the risk of missing another signal from Casey.
At this critical moment, Stefan suggested a strategic plan.
Given the constant threat of assassins targeting Raegan, making her presence in Aurora public seemed like a wise choice.
By joining the Clifford family, Raegan would be under the protection of one of Aurora’s toughest clans, where born assassins would hesitate to strike.
The Clifford family was renowned for its tight security.
No outsider could easily enter.
Those assassins couldn’t break into the Clifford family’s mansion to harm Raegan, and once they heard she was joining the Clifford family, it would signal Casey to reach out to them somehow.
Additionally, as Stefan’s brother-in-law, Erick could stay in Aurora to secretly look into Casey’s situation and uncover who was after Raegan.
Meanwhile, Stefan would accomplish his goal of establishing his own through this marriage, breaking away from his ties as the Clifford family’s heir and gaining the independence he desired.
It was a triplewin situation.
Erick pondered it over and concluded that this was indeed their best option at the moment.
This plan would ensure Raegan’s safety and possibly help them locate Casey.
As Erick shared the plan, Raegan readily agreed, not wanting her brother to be burdened with worry about her safety on top of everything else.
And with potential leads on their mother, they might finally locate her.
It was wonderful.
Stefan then falsely declared that he and Raegan had already married in Alcyone, witnessed by a priest, and that a wedding celebration would be held in Aurora before Raegan’s due date.
