She Only Has Three Months Left Raegan was a little annoyed.

Mitchel was already sweating profusely in pain.

How could he still care about her answer? "Raegan..." Mitchel murmured, holding her hand, unwilling to let her go. His face turned pale.

When Raegan saw his face, bitterness surged in her heart.

Did it really matter whether she was lying to him or not? They were divorced.

They had nothing to do with each other anymore, right? They were supposed to be strangers now.

But in the end, Raegan could no longer bear seeing Mitchel like this.

She said slowly, "No, I didn't sleep with Henley.

He and I are not in a relationship..." Before she could finish her words, Mitchel pulled her into his arms.

"Hmm..." She was about to say something, but her lips were suddenly sealed by his.

Mitchel reached out, raised Raegan's chin with his beautiful and slender fingers, and kissed her with his thin and sexy lips. The kiss started light, but it went deeper and deeper.

Raegan's body trembled uncontrollably.

She felt her limbs got weaker and weaker.

He still had this kind of impact on her, and she was ashamed.

She was still worried about Mitchel's injury.

So, she put her hands on his shoulder, trying not to touch his wound.

The sudden kiss brought them closer together.

Mitchel didn't lose control.

Before Raegan couldn't take it anymore, he quickly let her go.

Raegan was so mad at him that she wanted to slap him in the face.

If only he wasn't injured.

She tried hard to break free from his grip, but he held her even tighter.

"Mitchel, what are you doing? Stop it!" Raegan felt like she had fallen into his trap.

"Do you want to go back on what you have promised me that night?" They shouldn't have anything to do with each other anymore after their divorce, right? But why did he always get close to her? Worse was he still hugged and kissed her at will. "Yes, I regret it," Mitchel replied without hesitation.

It was as if Raegan was the one who broke the agreement.

"You..." Raegan got even angrier.

Mitchel's deep-set eyes were fixed on Raegan.

"If you are not pleased with it, you can get even with me by getting laid with me." Raegan was so dumbfounded that her jaw almost dropped.

Mitchel continued in a deep voice, "That night, we made love three times.

To compensate you, I will double it for you.

What do you think?" Raegan remained silent, so Mitchel went on seriously, "From a businessman's point of view, you've gained lot of profits in this deal." Raegan was even more at a loss for words.

She never knew anyone else as shameless as Mitchel.

He said those words in such a manner as if he was not ashamed of what he said, not even the slightest bit.

And he didn't blush at all when uttering those words.

Raegan was speechless for a while.

Then, she frowned and asked, "What the hell do you want?" "I want to start anew with you." As he spoke, Mitchel stared at Raegan solemnly. His charming eyes shone brightly. It was as if the stars came down and moved in his eyes. Raegan's heart skipped a beat. Mitchel's smile deepened. "I hope you can give me another chance to get to know you." He didn't say he wanted to reconcile with her. Instead, he said he wanted to know her.

It meant he wished to be with the current Raegan. Indeed, they could only be together without estrangements if they both left those bad memories behind. Mixed feelings filled Raegan. Some harm had already been done. Ignoring them didn't necessarily do her any good. This was the obstacle she couldn't get over with for now. So, she shook her head. "I think we are better this way." Obviously, Raegan meant she couldn't accept Mitchel now. She didn't want to experience those unnecessary sufferings again. Mitchel understood Raegan's hesitation. He knew after everything that happened, it was not easy for her to accept him again. So, he didn't press her. "T won't force you to accept me right now.

I know it will take some time, and I am willing to wait. But I have a request." gan raised her head and looked at him. He continued, "Don't keep avoiding me anymore." Raegan found it hard to resist being gazed at by his deep and charming eyes, so she lowered her head again and said, "If you don't want me to avoid you, don't force me to do something against my will." "Okay," Mitchel agreed without hesitation. He could force her to stay by his side with tons of approaches. But he no longer wanted to hurt her even a bit. Mitchel didn't want to make things difficult for Raegan anymore, so he patted the bed and said, "It's late. Come and sleep now." Raegan shook her head. "I'll just sit here. I'm not sleepy yet. I'll just lie down later if I feel tired." Actually, she only didn't want to be on the same bed with Mitchel. She silently complained about the lack of an extra bed for the family in the VIP ward which cost thousands of dollars every day. Just now, she went to the nurse station and asked whether she could rent a folding bed like other hospitals had equipped. However, this hospital didn't provide such a service. Raegan quietly cursed this hospital for its so-so service at a staggering price.

Seeing that Raegan remained in her seat, Mitchel also sat on his bed and didn't sleep.

Actually, it helped with the recovery of his wound if he lay still.

But he refused to lie down without Raegan lying by his side.

Raegan tried to coax Mitchel to sleep but in vain.

Mitchel just took his laptop and started working on some business matters.

Raegan could only sigh helplessly, knowing he wouldn't sleep if she didn't go to bed and lie beside him. Not wanting to give in yet, she played dumb by lowering her head and scrolling some feeds on her phone. After almost half an hour, Raegan raised her head and glanced at Mitchel. She saw the beads of sweat on his forehead. Apparently, it was because he had been sitting for to long. Before she knew it, her heart had already softened. Sometimes, Raegan hated herself for being too softhearted. She sighed. "Will you sleep if I go to bed with you?" "Of course. We will sleep together," Mitchel replied with a charming smile. Raegan stood up, took out a quilt from the closet, and laid it on the bed. "I will share the bed with you, but let's have an agreement first. We will be in our own quilts. Don't cross the line." Suddenly, Mitchel regretted not asking the nurse to take the quilt away. But it was already too late to regret it. So, he had no choice but to agree with Raegan. When Nicole walked out of the hospital, she felt like her whole body had been drained of strength.

Her test results were already in her hands. The painful truth was revealed in front of her. She had stomach cancer.

Her cancer was in the mid-advanced stage, and she needed to undergo an operation as soon as possible. Otherwise, she would only have three months to live. She held the examination report in her hand tightly. It was a clear proof that her stomach was badly damaged. But this news was not the most heartbreaking for her. Another blood test result in her hand showed she was pregnant. She was two months pregnant.

These past months, Jarrod was violent and ruthless every time they had sex.

She bled several times, but she thought it was only her normal menstruation.

She never thought she was pregnant.

Jarrod didn't like to use condoms, so Nicole took contraceptive pills every time.

How could she get pregnant? The doctor's words were still vivid in her mind.

"You must have an abortion first before we can arrange the gastric cancer surgery." Nicole bit her dry lips hard. Soon, she made up her mind.

The abortion must be done as soon as possible, but she had to delay the gastric cancer surgery.

The Lawrence Group was now in a life-and-death situation, and all the deals she had earned went smoothly.

She was on the right track of saving the company.

It was not easy for the company to reach such an improvement, so she couldn't slack off.

She couldn't be hospitalized for now.

Besides, her parents were still in bad condition.

She was the only one to manage the Lawrence family now.

At the thought of this, she tore up the test results, threw them into the trash can, and got in the car without looking back.

Nicole rested her hands on the steering wheel.

Her hands couldn't stop trembling, which meant she couldn't possibly drive at this moment.

So she took out her phone to call her assistant to pick her up.

But before she could do anything, her assistant's call came in first.

When she pressed the answer button, her assistant's flustered voice came through.

"Miss Lawrence, bad news! There is something wrong with the deals that you have brought for the company!" "What? What do

you mean?" The assistant replied between sobs, "They said that our finished products didn't meet their standards, so they refused the deliveries." Nicole was so shocked that she held her breath.

"How can that be possible?" She personally checked the samples to ensure their quality.

She even watched every step of the procedure herself.

Those deals were the hope for the Lawrence family to be on the right track.

How could such an error happen? Nicole didn't think about anything else anymore.

She got out of her car, hailed a taxi, and rushed back to the company.

Then, she saw the products piled up in the lobby of the company.

Nicole went to her office and called those companies to convince them to receive the products.

But they all asserted that they couldn't accept the products without telling her the real reason.

Only Korbin, the last company on the list, reminded her kindly, "Miss Lawrence, did you offend anyone recently?" Nicole was stunned.

Did she offend anyone? She thought for a while, but only Jarrod came to her mind, Her hands trembled, but she managed to take her phone and call Jarrod.

"Mr.

Schultz, where are you?" It was noisy and lively on the other end of the line.

Jarrod's cold and ruthless voice came through, "I'm not available today." Then, he hung up the phone.

All she could hear was a beeping sound.

Nicole immediately contacted one of Jarrod's friends and asked where he was.

It was only then that she found out that today was Jamie's birthday.

Jarrod held a party for Jamie on a private yacht.

Nicole hung up and rushed to the dock.

She had to pay a loan amounting to eighty million dollars tomorrow.

If she couldn't pay it in time, the Lawrence family would be doomed. Thus, she couldn't waste time.
