Chapter 86
Teach Tessa A Lesson After saying this, Mitchel made a phone call in front of Raegan.
He ordered coldly, "Check everything about Henley Brooks.
He is an employee of AT investment bank.
I want all his records during the past year.
Then, send someone to follow him around the clock.
Never allow him to leave Ardlens." Raegan panicked upon hearing this.
She only provoked and angered Mitchel to make him agree to the divorce.
This was her only goal.
After all, she was confident he couldn't find any evidence about her so-called affairs.
How could he find something that didn't exist? Mitchel was an arrogant man.
So, he couldn't accept that she was pregnant with someone else's child.
That was why she used this to irritate him and make him decide to divorce her.
Raegan thought he would only deal with her.
She didn't expect him to turn his anger to Henley.
So she said, "Mitchel, this baby has nothing to do with Henley.
Can you stop implicating other people?" However, Mitchel just ignored her words.
He turned around and left directly.
Raegan was left there alone, feeling flustered.
She knew Mitchel.
Now that he was angry, she couldn't imagine what outrageous things he could do to Henley.
From Serenity Villas, Mitchel went straight to the bar.
When he arrived there, Luis had already opened a bottle of wine.
Mitchel picked up a glass and motioned at Luis to fill it with wine.
Then he drank three glasses in a row without saying anything.
After putting down the glass, Mitchel looked at Luis and asked, "Where are my pills?” Luis threw a box of medicine to Mitchel.
Mitchel caught it and opened it without hesitation.
He took one pill, stuffed it into his mouth, and drank it with the wine.
Luis looked at Mitchel with a frown.
"Come on, man! What is wrong with you? You know what? It’s already a miracle that you are still alive until now.” However, Mitchel just ignored Luis' words.
Instead, he asked indifferently, "You only have one box of this?” Luis raised his eyebrows.
“Man, I don't manufacture that medicine.
Yes, I still have more boxes.
But I can't give them all to you.
It's very important that you control your intake of this medicine.
Although it can cure your manic depression, excessive doses can kill you.
Do you understand?" Luis was telling the truth.
Mitchel had been suffering from severe manic disorder in the past years.
And it was quite terrifying when he had a relapse.
But unfortunately, the domestic treatments were no longer effective on him.
So, Luis tried to look for other treatments.
Then he came across a professor in Swynborough who had this medicine.
It helped cure mental depression.
However, it had a drawback.
Taking too much of it was detrimental to the patient's health.
Since Mitchel and Raegan got married, Mitchel didn't have a relapse.
That was why Mitchel already stopped taking the medicine.
So, Luis knew it was not a good sign that Mitchel wanted to take it again.
The relapse would be even more severe than before.
Moreover, if Mitchel kept going on like this, he would not be able to control himself anymore, even with the help of the medicine.
Mitchel didn't say anything.
He just sat there with his brows furrowed.
This time, Luis said brazenly, "Mitchel, tell me what exactly is going on.
You haven't relapsed for more than two years.
What happened? Why are you so angry this time?" When Mitchel heard this, he became so irritated that he pulled his tie, loosening it.
Luis asked again, "Does it have anything to do with Raegan?" Luis was surprised by Mitchel's abnormal behavior.
Mitchel was a successful businessman, and he could deal with all kinds of situations at work.
In fact, he was always calm and rational.
But when it came to women, he often lost his composure.
But of all the women around Mitchel, Raegan was the luckiest.
After all, Luis had never seen Mitchel pay so much attention to other women except Raegan.
Luis played with the wine glass in his hand, waiting for Mitchel's answer.
However, Mitchel remained silent.
So he continued, "I heard that Raegan's grandmother passed away, and there was a scene in the nursing house.
Honestly, | believe that it was unfair to her.
After all, you were not there for her when she needed you the most.
Instead, you accompanied Lauren." Every time the death of Raegan's grandmother was mentioned, Mitchel felt like his heart was being stabbed.
He pursed his thin lips.
This time, he finally spoke up.
"I know it was my fault.” His heart ached for Raegan at this. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
He felt very sorry for her.
But because she was hurt by him, was it already an excuse for her to cheat on him? Luis spoke again.
"It’s only normal for Raegan to be emotional.
Women are emotional, and they need to be coaxed.
So, instead of getting angry, you have to control your temper and coax her.
Besides, your symptoms will worsen with the slightest stimulation when you are in a bad mood.
If you can't say something nice, at least avoid saying harsh words.
Otherwise, you will end up miserably.
By then, don't blame me for not warning you.” Mitchel’s grip on the wine glass tightened.
The medicine must have taken effect because he felt much better now.
At this moment, he became more rational.
He connected all the things together and felt that something was odd.
So he looked at Luis and asked, "Is it possible for the hospital to make a mistake about the examination result?" "Generally speaking, it doesn't happen.
But there can be some exceptions.
After all, even a machine cannot be one hundred percent accurate." "What about the pregnancy tests? Are the results one hundred percent accurate?" Luis' eyes lit up at once.
He asked excitedly, "Is Raegan pregnant?" However, Mitchel ignored his question and asked again, "Is it possible for the hospital to make mistakes about them?” "I don’t think so.
But for those women who have irregular menstruation, the date of the pregnancy may not be accurate." Raegan accidentally fell into the water when she was a child.
Because of this, she had dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation.
Mitchel only remembered this after he heard Luis " explanation.
If she was really fifteen weeks pregnant, they were in a good relationship before that.
They didn't have any fights or arguments.
What was more, they had sex almost every day except for the days she had her period.
Suddenly, Mitchel was reminded of her clear eyes, charming look, and soft voice begging him every time they made love.
This made him realize she had no reason to suddenly cheat on him while he was working abroad.
Besides, they had a wild night as soon as he came back from the business trip.
He knew that she didn't have sex with any other man.
It reminded him that day was in her safe period, so he didn't use any contraceptives.
And they had sex several times.
Therefore, Raegan must have said those words probably only to irritate him.
But why did she have to say such things? Did she really not love him anymore? Was it only because he couldn't come back to see her grandmother for the last time? The more Mitchel thought about it, the more his head hurt.
Before he knew it, he had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
Even in his sleep, he murmured, "Raegan, you are not allowed to leave me.
You are not allowed to leave me for any reason..." Luis looked at Mitchel and sighed.
Then he called Matteo to pick Mitchel up.
Mitchel woke up when he was already in the car.
He told Matteo to take him to a hotel.
Since he was under the influence of alcohol, he feared he might do something irrational if he returned to the villa.
The next day, Tessa woke up feeling uneasy.
She had been worried since she came back from the church.
Worse still, Kenia was badly injured.
Kenia was brought back by an ambulance, and she was still lying in bed at the moment.
Tessa and Kenia had already reported this matter to Tessa's father, who was so busy with his work that he completely ignored them.
Besides, he relied on the Dixon family now.
There was no way he would go against the Dixon family for such a trivial matter.
Even if the people involved were his own family members.
At this moment, Tessa leaned over and whispered in Kenia’'s ear, "It's been a few days.
Mitchel must have forgotten about it, right?" Kenia nodded.
"You're right.
It must be okay now.
That bastard even kicked me out of the church.
I am his aunt.
How can he be so rude to me?" Tessa glanced at Kenia.
"If you are capable enough, why don't you find a better husband? In that case, I don't have to be bullied by other people all the time.
You are useless.
First, you married a gambler.
Now, you found a playboy.
He is already in his sixties, but he still takes drugs and messes up with those whores.” Kenia rolled her eyes at Tessa.
"What are you talking about? That gambler is my ex-husband, and that playboy is my current husband.
They had been a father to you, too.
So, don't talk nonsense." "My stepfather is almost the same age as my grandfather.
Do you still want me to call him dad?" Kenia sighed and said, "I am too old to find someone better.
You are young and beautiful, so you must find a good man to marry.
Of course, his background can’t be lower than the Lloyd family.
How about that young man you met at the banquet last time? Have you had a good conversation with him? He seems to come from a wealthy family.
You must seize the opportunity.
Do you understand?" Tessa smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry.
I know he likes me, and I am sure he will fall for me soon." Suddenly, they heard a loud bang.
Kenia and Tessa were both startled when the door was kicked open.
The person who came in was Tessa's stepfather, Jacob.
Since Tessa knew she had no one to rely on except Jacob, she pretended to be a good daughter.
She stood up, walked up to him, and asked with a smile, "Dad, are you here to see mom?" But unexpectedly, two crisp slap sounds echoed in the room.
Tessa was slapped by Jacob hard.
The impact was so strong that Tessa fell to the floor, and one of her teeth was broken.
Tessa's face was red and swollen, and the corner of her mouth bled.
She covered her cheek and asked agegrievedly, "Dad...
Why did you hit me?" Jacob snorted coldly.
"That's just a small lesson for you.
Pack your things and get out of my house right now!" When Kenia saw that Tessa was being beaten, she felt so sorry for Tessa that she stopped pretending to be sick.
She jumped out of bed and shouted, "Jacob,
