Love Unbreakable

Chapter 478

Katie and Luciana were the first to leave today. The medicine box was found on the ground where they had been, and it was gold-plated, which ruled out it being an assistant's.

Upon closer inspection, Raegan noticed a faint initial on it.

This made it unclear whether the box was Katie's or Luciana's.

But the gold-plated design, not typically favored by the younger crowd, suggested it might belong to Luciana.

Mitchel frowned and said, "This is my mom's."

Mitchel had seen it before and had once asked Luciana about its contents. Luciana simply said it was for health purposes. The investigation into Luciana's schedule hadn't revealed much. Besides shopping and hanging out with Katie, Luciana seemed to keep to herself.

Upon reflecting, Mitchel realized there was something amiss about Luciana's condition. He picked up the medicine box and announced, 'Ill get this tested."

"That's for the best. Hopefully, it's nothing serious." Raegan couldn't help worrying but hoped for the best.

On their way back, Mitchel wrapped his arms around Raegan, never letting go. He whispered, "I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days. You're all I think about, whether my eyes are open or closed."

Raegan softly hummed. "I didn't feel anything."

If she hadn't reached out to him today, he likely wouldn't have made time for her at all. Even though they had resolved the misunderstanding, she still felt a little upset about how cold he had been toward her recently. She couldn't help but sound a bit flirty.

Mitchel chuckled and gently held the back of her head to kiss her.

"Mm..." Raegan caught her breath, suddenly pressed against the seat by him.

Mitchel kissed her passionately, as if claiming her.

Caught up in the moment, Raegan moaned softly.

Mitchel, slightly out of breath but smiling, asked, "How about now?"

Raegan's cheeks turned a bright red. She whispered, "That's not what I meant!"

Laughing heartily, Mitchel teasingly squeezed her, his voice growing deep. "I can make you feel in other ways, too." Raegan, her cheeks still warm, nudged him away a bit. "We haven't sorted out the thing with Katie yet..."

The thought of Katie falsely claiming to be pregnant with Mitchel's child troubled Raegan. Being fond of someone involved paying attention to their interactions with the opposite gender.

Mitchel's detest for Katie reached its climax.

He moved closer, holding Raegan's waist tightly, his voice rough. "You're aroused. Sure you don't want this?" Raegan was left without words. She turned red and felt completely overwhelmed.

Mitchel looked at her intensely and kissed her with deep passion.

The following day, at a senior meeting within the Dixon Group, Mitchel was speaking when the conference room door swung open.

Henley came in, a man who wasn't qualified to attend this meeting, making his entrance quite shocking.

Mitchel shot Henley a frosty look.

Henley slammed a financial report on the table, outlining the losses the Dixon Group faced due to Mitchel's solo decision to back out of the deal with the Glyn Group on the Eastern Garden project.

"Care to explain this, Mr. Dixon?" Henley smirked.

Mitchel replied icily, "Explain what?"

"Word has it that you ended the deal with the Glyn Group over a woman. Is that the case? Henley crossed his arms. This question caused a stir in the room, sparking an immediate commotion. The idea of a company's leader making decisions based on a woman's involvement seemed like madness to them.

Mitchel glanced at Henley. "Got any proof?"

Henley clapped his hands, and Katie walked in with reddened eyes, her back deliberately backward to showcase her less than pronounced baby bump.

"Mitchel, are you really going to ruthlessly abandon the Glyn family just for that woman? I'm pregnant with your baby. And think about all the great work we've done together. Can you really throw all that away?" Katie promptly dropped the bomb.

The room buzzed with shock and whispers. Katie, the former vice president, announced she was carrying Mitchel's baby. Such a revelation went beyond their wildest imagination.

Mitchel realized that Katie was in cahoots with Henley.

It looked like Katie had thought through the fallout of bringing this to light.

Mitchel responded icily, "Your child isn't mine."

"Mitchel, how can you be so cold..." Katie, pretending to be deeply hurt, covered her face and wept.

Katle, having treaded carefully to build a gentle and decent persona, displaying such fragility now, seemed quite the act.

Henley, taking his time, pulled out a report with a smile. "Mitchel, considering the kid might have Dixon genes, I got a paternity test done."

And the report showed a 99.99% genetic match.

Henley, smiling warmly, said, "Does this convince you the child is yours?"

Before Mitchel could answer, Alexis burst in, snapping at Mitchel, "You bastard! You got Katie pregnant and now you're denying it!"

Mitchel stayed calm. "I've said it's not mine. Someone could have tampered with these test results."

Alexis retorted, "Do you honestly believe Katie would stoop to falsifying a test to trap you into believing the paternity of her child?"All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Mitchel's gaze shifted between the three and said mockingly, "She's not acting alone."

Alexis froze, knowing what Mitchel was implying

"We could always take another test with everyone present," Alexis suggested with a facade of righteousness. "But let's wait until Katie feels better. She's been sick lately."

Mitchel watched their act without response, discerning their hidden agendas.

The three had their own motives, with Katie being used as a pawn, oblivious to the manipulation.

The next second, Henley decided to reveal his ace. "I bet this isn't your first time dealing with such messy situations, huh?

Henley went on nonchalantly, "Let's not forget about the former vice president of the Dixon Group, Katie, who used her ties with you to divert funds from the company. A lot of shareholders have grievances over this."

Katie, stunned, couldn't believe her ears. Henley was supposed to be on her side. Why was he saying all this?

Henley slammed a petition on the table, signed by forty-two shareholders. 'Forty-two shareholders have signed this, calling for an internal investigation into your actions, Mitchel."

It was essentially a call for Mitchel's removal.

"It's better if you step back from company matters for now, Henley suggested.

Alexis chimed in, "Launching an investigation is the right move. We need to give the shareholders an explanation. The Dixon Group requires a leader who can make smart choices."

Alexis added with conviction, "Even if you're my son, I won't protect you if you're in the wrong." Despite claims of a father-son bond, Alexis' actions had never really reflected such a relationship.

The announcement left the executives reeling, with Katie being especially shocked and angry.

However, Mitchel, the person at the center of all this, remained calm. He stood up and said smoothly, "I'll cooperate fully with the investigation."

His willingness to cooperate surprised Alexis and Henley, disrupting their plans.

Mitchel then walked out of the meeting room to his office.

Katie trailed behind Henley to a vacant conference room.

"Why are you betraying me?" Katie demanded angrily from Henley.
