Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook -
Chapter 1989
After a calm week, on this fine day, Raegan planned to take a walk after lunch.
Now six months pregnant, she couldn’t stay confined indoors continually, as her doctor had advised her to get some exercise.
However, with numerous spies from the Clifford family around, Raegan was cautious and generally avoided wandering around.
Raegan and Stefan resided in different rooms within the villa, with her upstairs and him downstairs, maintaining their disguise.
For the first three days, they didn’t even step outside.

Rumors were circulating about them being inseparable, staying Locked up in their rooms without leaving their doors.
Even during dinner with Stefan’s father, he had acknowledged their close bond but advised them to be cautious, given Raegan’s pregnancy was no trivial matter.
After dinner, Stefan’s father even suggested that Stefan might take a concubine to satisfy his needs.
Stefan firmly declined, pointing out they had only been married for three days.
Yet, his father was already considering a concubine for him.
This incident highlighted the diminished status of women in Aurora.
In the view of those men, women were merely tools for reproduction and physical pleasure, devoid of any rights.
Raegan understood why Stefan opted for a fake marriage to get away from the Clifford family, as anyone with a modern education would struggle to tolerate such outdated, oppressive views.
After lunch, Stefan took Raegan for a walk in a park near the villa.
Having never been outside the Clifford family’s manor in Aurora, Raegan found everything outside intriguing.
On the way, she eagerly absorbed the surrounding landscapes, while Stefan shared stories linked to the local customs.
Their conversation flowed easily, free from any discomfort.
Behind them, a black SUV followed at a leisurely pace.
Stefan could see the driver of the SUV from the rearview mirror.
Though not recognizing the driver, he had a suspect of the man in the backseat.
Stefan glanced at Raegan, who seemed unaware, still captivated by the roadside scenery.
Stefan chose not to mention it.
When they arrived, Stefan opened the car door for Raegan and offered his hand to assist her.
This gesture was somewhat intimate, resembling that of a genuine couple.
Raegan hesitated, unsure about accepting his help.
Noticing her hesitation, Stefan explained, “The ground is covered in pebbles, so I’ll support you to ensure you walk safely.
”
Embarrassed by her hesitation, Raegan realized how thoughtful Stefan always was, and felt it was unreasonable of her to feel awkward about such a small act.
She reached out her hand, which Stefan took firmly.
After they disembarked, Stefan maintained his hold until they had walked past the pebbled path.
He then walked beside Raegan without holding her hand.
