Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 1976

Erick, with his towering frame and long strides, swiftly spotted the man still kneeling on the cobblestone ground.

He halted in front of Mitchel, extending a hand to help him up.

Though the murderous intent against Raegan had something to do with Mitchel, Erick knew Mitchel never wanted so, nor had Mitchel anticipated Raegan’s presence at the hotel at that time.

Considering how Mitchel had risked his life to save Raegan, Erick wouldn’t make things overly difficult for him.

However, this didn’t imply Erick had forgiven Mitchel.

Understanding another’s hardships was a challenge unless one had personally endured similar trials.

Erick himself couldn’t comprehend the pain of having to push away the woman he loved due to circumstances.

Of course, he wouldn’t go to the extent of endangering his own life either.

While Mitchel bore responsibility, his actions under life-threatening circumstances could be somewhat justifiable.

Yet, Erick felt it was too risky for Mitchel and Raegan to be together.

It was better for each to resolve their own issues and leave future matters to fate.

Mitchel declined Erick’s hand, opting to hoist himself up from the ground, albeit with difficulty.

He merely needed a moment to regain his composure before rising to his feet.

In Raegan’s presence, he refrained from using coercion to sway her decision.

His voice hoarse, he addressed Erick, “Erick.

”

This tone gave Erick a pause before he responded, “It’s best for you to return.

”

Mitchel stayed silent.

Erick reasoned, “What can you achieve by staying here? Raegan was caught off guard and taken away by you within the mansion.

Do you truly believe you can get out?”

He reminded Mitchel of the unforgiving nature of this place, cautioning, “In Aurora, you can’t outmatch the Clifford family in a kidnapping.

”

Mitchel retorted, “It’s not that I can’t outmatch them.

”

It was Raegan’s feelings Mitchel was uncertain of.

If her heart truly belonged to him, he believed he could safely navigate any peril to bring her back.

Erick’s expression soured slightly.

“If you behave recklessly, I won’t be polite.

”

To Erick, Mitchel posed a greater threat than the individual responsible for Casey’s disappearance.

Fearing Mitchel’s potential to lose control and whisk Raegan away, Erick issued a stern warning, “I’ll arrange for someone to take you out, but if you come back here, I’ll leave it to the Clifford family to deal with, and I won’t be part of it.

”

Mitchel lowered his gaze.

“Erick, there’s no need for you to worry about me.

”

Erick fell silent.

Fearing Mitchel might exacerbate the situation, Erick felt compelled to be stern.

“I’m not sure what’s on your mind right now, but if it’s because you love Raegan, then you should respect her choices, whether she decides to marry Stefan or be with you.

We’ve never meddled in her decisions.

It’s always been Raegan’s choice.

I hope you won’t do anything that goes against her wishes.

You can’t break up and then reconcile on your whim.

Have you thought about whether Raegan can handle it?”

Erick displayed a photo on his phone, stating, “Take a good look at how much she suffered after you regained consciousness.

”

The photo depicted Raegan’s emotional distress scores, nearing 26 on the HAMD scale, almost reaching severe depression levels.

Initially, Victor, concerned about Raegan’s persistent despondency and lack of interest, feared Raegan might jeopardize her health, so she alerted Erick.

Upon reviewing Raegan’s medical records, Erick discovered signs of depression.

However, Raegan kept it to herself, fearing others would fret.
