Chapter 791
Although she said so, she didn’t dare to look into his eyes at all as if he was some kind of a monster, and she was afraid to get
close.
His lips curved into a faint smile. He could only shake his head helplessly.
Suddenly, a loud bang broke the silence in the ward.
The door was kicked open.
Then, Alexis stormed in and shouted angrily, “You bastard! You’ve grown some backbones, huh? So you really think you are now
capable of provoking anyone?”
After saying this, Alexis noticed Raegan beside the hospital bed. His eyes narrowed, and he glared at her with a gloomy
expression.
“What are you doing here? Get out!”
After shouting at Raegan, Alexis turned to Mitchel and said, “What is going on with the bodyguards here? How can they let
anyone in?”
The disdain and contempt in Alexis’ eyes were overflowing.
Raegan had always been polite, and she was rarely despised by her elders.
She didn’t want to disrespect anyone, especially Mitchel’s father.
But those insulting words Alexis said to her a few days ago were still vivid in her mind.
At his words, her face turned pale, and she felt indescribably uncomfortable. She wished she could run away from here as soon
as possible.
Raegan turned around and was about to leave.
But she suddenly froze.
A crisp sound echoed in the ward.
It turned out that a crystal glass narrowly grazed Alexis’ face. It hit the wall and shattered into countless pieces on the floor.
Raegan turned around and saw Mitchel’s deep-set eyes were colder and sharper than blades, staring at Alexis.
Then, Mitchel got out of bed. His tall figure cast a shadow over Raegan’s head. He said coldly, “Stay here!”
As Mitchel spoke, he extended his hand to hold Raegan’s hand.
Thinking it wasn’t appropriate for her to stay here when they quarreled, she managed to shake Mitchel’s hand off and walked
away.
But then, Mitchel’s grip tightened. It seemed he wanted her to stay and witness the scene.
Their clasped hands ignited something in Alexis’ heart. He could not believe his son would upset the Benton family and forsake
the lucrative project for a woman Like Raegan. To him, Raegan was merely a beauty from a humble background, doing no favors
for the family business.
“If you’ve got something to say, just say it. I need to rest,”
