Love Unbreakable

Chapter 367 I Miss You So Much | Raegan wrestled with her thoughts, feeling an inner turmoil. She questioned her own resolve, puzzled over her lingering affection for Mitchel despite her lost memories. Her frustration with herself was palpable.

Angrily, Raegan asserted, "I'm not just making excuses. I've been genuinely swamped." Mitchel's gaze pierced her as he inquired, "And what about the day before yesterday? Were you swamped then too?" Caught off guard, Raegan felt exposed, as if her privacy had been breached.

She wondered if his words hinted at a knowledge of her actions, a suggestion that he knew she had been free yet

chose to stay away.

With a tone of displeasure, Raegan queried, "Have you been spying on me?" Mitchel openly admitted, "I wanted to understand what you were up to, so I had Matteo look into it." Mitchel did not hide the fact that he had Matteo check on Raegan.

Discovering that she preferred the company of her dog over a visit to him left him disheartened, to the point where he lost his appetite and suffered from acute gastric issues due to the distress.

In a soft voice, Mitchel shared, "Whenever I'm not working at the hospital, my thoughts are filled with you." Raegan's cheeks turned a warm shade of red. Mitchel's ability to weave

flattering words with such ease left her both flustered and charmed.

In a heartfelt moment, Mitchel took Raegan's hand and placed it over his heart, professing, "In here, it's always been only you." Raegan's cheeks deepened to the color of a ripe peach at his sudden declaration. She looked down, attempting to pull her hand back, but he held on firmly, his eyes alight with genuine affection. "Raegan, let's give it another try, shall we?" The intensity of the moment left Raegan's heart racing. After a brief pause, she stammered, "No... No." His persistence was clear. "If you still have feelings for me, why resist?" Raegan's mind went blank for a moment, and she blurted out, "My brother would never approve..."

Mitchel's gaze intensified as he spoke.

"If you're on board, convincing your brother will be a piece of cake for me." Raegan knew Erick's stubbornness all too well, a trait Mitchel seemed to underestimate. Once Erick set his mind on something, he was like a tree deeply rooted, unmovable.

Her curiosity piqued, Raegan questioned, "And how do you plan to convince my brother?" Mitchel reassured her with a wave of his hand, "Leave that to me. The moment he gives his nod, nothing will keep us apart." Caught off guard by his assurance, Raegan protested, "Wait, 'us' being together? I haven't said yes to anything yet." Mitchel's confidence didn't waver. "I don't care, I'll make sure your brother

sees things our way," he declared, As the night crept upon them, Raegan attempted to retrieve her hand, saying, "It's getting late. I should head home." But Mitchel's grip remained firm, his voice dropping to a whisper. "Please, don't go tonight. Stay with me?" The memory of Mitchel's allure that night flashed through Raegan's mind, his striking figure etched in her memory, stirring a blush on her cheeks at the thought. The possibility of repeating that night if she stayed crossed her mind. Absolutely not! Firmly, Raegan refused, "I can't stay.

My brother will start looking for me soon." Raegan remembered how her previous lie to Victor had easily unraveled, prompting Erick to tighten his watch over her. He had taken to video calling

her at night, making unexpected checks, Mitchel, noticing her embarrassment, realized she was recalling their intimate moment the other night. His resolve to negotiate with Erick grew stronger, understanding that only with Erick's blessing could they truly be together.

Mitchel hesitated but didn't want to press Raegan into a corner. He let out a sigh, a mix of resignation and mischief coloring his tone. "Alright, you can leave. But as a small penalty for having avoided me for the previous two days, how about a kiss?" Raegan's cheeks warmed at his request, her voice tinged with disbelief.

"What are you saying?" He looked at her, his expression grave.

"My stomach's been acting up. I could use a bit of comfort."

With no real escape, Raegan leaned in, her lips brushing his in the faintest of touches. She felt her face heat up. This was new territory for her, initiating such an intimate gesture.

“I'll be off then," she managed to say, lifting her gaze to meet his.

The twinkle in his eyes sent her heart racing, and she turned away, trying to pull free from his grasp.

Mitchel teased, "Looks like you still need some guidance. Guess I'll have to be the teacher." "What?" Raegan asked. The next moment, Mitchel drew her closer, her back against his chest.

Before Raegan could process his intentions, Mitchel lowered his head, his kiss far more deliberate than hers.

His hands cradled her face, deepening the kiss, leaving her breathless and

unable to form coherent thoughts The warmth of his embrace enveloped her, her heart pounding against her chest.

After what felt like an eternity, Mitchel finally released her, his voice rough with emotion. "That's how a kiss ought to be." Raegan, her face aflame, attempted to rise, but his arms held her firmly.

"Stay just a moment longer," he whispered, his voice husky. "It's been two days too long. I've missed you." His words flowed easily, sweetened by genuine affection.

Mitchel seemed ready to bare his soul to her and weave words of love he had never before uttered.

“I've missed you so much. You haunt my dreams, yet you stay just out of

reach..." There was a softness in his voice, a vulnerability that seemed at odds with the man of confidence she knew.

Hearing this side of him left Raegan speechless, caught off guard by the depth of his feelings, his pride momentarily set aside.

Mitchel released her before making a request. "Tomorrow, I want to savor the porridge you make." He cherished the flavor of her porridge, unparalleled in taste over the last five years.

Porridge, of all things? Raegan was baffled. With countless staff at her beck and call, Raegan hadn't touched a pot in ages, yet the task seemed trivial.

She nodded. "Alright, but you must let me go now. I need to head back."

With one last kiss, Mitchel let her slip away from his grasp.

He then stood up, offering, "I'll drive you back." Raegan protested, eyes wide, "But you're unwell." "I feel fine," Mitchel countered, eager for a few more moments with her.

Despite his handsome, yet slightly pallid appearance, Raegan saw through his bravado. "Absolutely not, or you can forget about your porridge." Mitchel conceded, suggesting, "Let Matteo drive you back then." "I've got my own ride," Raegan replied.

Still, Mitchel insisted with a concern that roughened his voice, "Have him follow you back. It's late, and I worry." Raegan felt a sweetness swell in her heart, a comforting warmth spreading

within, After Raegan's departure, Mitchel's night took a turn. Katie's anxious voice reached him over the phone.

"Mitchel..." Katie was on the verge of tears, revealing her father's sudden heart attack.

"How could this happen?" Mitchel's brow furrowed in concern.

"I don't know. Suddenly, my dad passed out at home." Katie's voice trembled.

Tears brimmed in Katie's eyes as she spoke. "Would you mind postponing the clarification press conference tomorrow? The Glyn group is in disarray. News like this could tank the stock price. For the long-standing friendship between our families, could you consider delaying it..."

Mitchel took a moment, his lips drawing into a thin line. "I'll reach out to the finest cardiovascular specialist for your father and make every effort to pull him through." Relief washed over Katie, her heart lighter with the knowledge that her choice was sound.

The next moment, Mitchel's voice carried a chill. "The Glyn Group can have half a month to steady itself against any sudden events and shifts in the stock market before we hold the press conference." This concession was a significant gesture of respect from Mitchel to Katie's father. The Glyn Group now had a fortnight to manage the crisis. It was enough time. His mind was set. He would swiftly handle any tribulations that might unsettle Raegan.
