A happy smile immediately appeared on his indifferent face. He called out aloud, “Honey, wait!”
Raegan stopped when she heard this.
Mitchel stood up and said to Lauren, “I have already underlined the key points on the document. Matteo will take you to the head of the Operations Department. He will help you with the rest.”
Lauren wanted to say something. However, Mitchel had already walked to Raegan and wrapped his arm around her waist naturally.

Lauren froze in place. Her hand holding the document stiffened for a moment.
Raegan’s face flushed upon hearing Mitchel’s endearment. Besides, she was not used to being intimate with Mitchel in front of others. She wanted to break free from his arm. But out of the corner of her eye, she saw the undisguised anger on Lauren’s face. An idea occurred to her. She raised her head, looked at Mitchel with her round eyes, and said softly, “I just want to see you.”
Raegan’s innocent face had always been her advantage. Any man who looked at her could hardly refuse her.
And Mitchel was not an exception. When he looked at her angelic face, he couldn’t help leaning over and planting a kiss on her delicate lips.
Upon seeing this scene, Lauren subconsciously clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails dug into the palms of her hands. A malicious light flashed across her eyes. It took her some moments to calm herself down and conceal the resentment in her eyes. Then she said softly, “Mitchel, I’m leaving then.”
Mitchel nodded. Before Lauren walked out of the office, he said, “Don’t worry. No one will make things difficult for you anymore.
Matteo will make arrangements for you to make sure that everything goes well.”
Somehow, Lauren’s mood was lightened up by his words. She smiled and said in a sweet voice, “Thank you, Mitchel.”
Then she walked out of the office with her head held high. It was as if she was showing her complacency to Raegan.
As soon as the door closed, Raegan broke free from Mitchel’s embrace.
She walked to the coffee table and opened the thermos lid. Then she turned to Mitchel and said in a calm and cold voice, “Drink the soup while it’s still hot.”

Raegan didn’t answer his question. They hadn’t contacted each other for the past three days, and she had no idea that Lauren had already entered the Dixon Group. Lauren must have come up with a new strategy to get close to Mitchel.
At the thought of the scene when Lauren and Mitchel were in the same office and discussing work, she felt Lauren’s purpose was very obvious.
Raegan felt like a fishbone was stuck in her throat. And every time she breathed, it hurt. She was very uncomfortable.
However, she couldn’t find an outlet to vent out. And she also knew that Mitchel didn’t like others to interfere with his work. So, if she made a fuss about it, they would only argue..
Raegan suppressed the anger and jealousy in her heart and replied indifferently, “No, of course not. Drink the soup now.”
Mitchel didn’t seem satisfied with Raegan’s answer. The expression on his face changed. But he didn’t say anything more. He just picked up the soup and drank it up.
