Chapter 315 Draw The Line

Mitchel walked out of the police station with tightly furrowed brows. Obviously, he was upset.

Upon seeing this, Matteo couldn't help asking, "Mr. Dixon, is something wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

Mitchel's thin lips had already turned pale. Instead of answering Matteo's question, he said, "Get in the car first."

As soon as Mitchel sat in the back seat, he leaned against the seat and massaged his temples. He looked tired and in pain. "My medicine..."

Matteo hesitated for a moment. Then, he opened the compartment and took one painkiller from the bottle. He handed it to Mitchel along with a bottle of mineral water.

Mitchel took the medicine expressionlessly. He quickly put it into his mouth and swallowed it with water. Then, he extended his hand and said, "Three more."

Matteo hesitated. He didn't want to give Mitchel more. "Mr. Dixon, Miss Glyn firmly advised that you can only take two pills at a time. She said it's a specially formulated medication, and taking more can harm your nerves."

Mitchel's brows furrowed tightly. He demanded, "Just give them to me."

"But Mr. Dixon..."

Mitchel looked more displeased. His frown deepened. "If you are so eager to follow Katie's instructions, how about I let you be her assistant?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon," Matteo quickly apologized upon realizing his mistake. He handed three more pills to Mitchel.

After taking the pills, Mitchel leaned back in his seat again and closed his eyes.

The image of Raegan leaning against Stefan earlier kept flashing in his mind, intensifying his headache. Violent emotions surged in his heart, making him wish he could cut off Stefan's hand.

Fortunately, his reason reminded him that he couldn't do it. He couldn't do anything Raegan didn't like. Otherwise, she would only stay farther and farther away from him. He was afraid that she would silently disappear again.

Raegan's sudden disappearance five years ago was a huge blow to Mitchel, his condition having suffered from depression. Only he and his psychiatrist knew how he managed through the past five years. He could only sleep peacefully with the help of sleeping pills. He had been dependent on this medicine.

But for Raegan, he refused to give up. He believed that as long as she remained unmarried, he still had a chance. In fact, even if she got married one day, he might go to the wedding and take her away. He didn't want things to get to the point of no return.

The car started to move slowly. When Mitchel felt this, his frown deepened. He looked at Matteo and asked, "Has Raegan been released?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Dixon. I don't know yet," Matteo replied.

Raegan had just sent Mitchel to the police station. So, Matteo assumed that Mitchel wouldn't want to hear any news about her now.

Mitchel's expression changed slightly. He said coldly, "Find out where she is now."

"Okay, Mr. Dixon." Matteo made a few phone calls. Then, he looked at Mitchel with layers of sweat on his forehead. "Mr. Dixon, she's still detained at the police station."

Mitchel raised his eyebrows and asked, "What happened?" "Cary Blake, the CEO of Sino Entertainment, accused her of drugging him. She's being held there for interrogation."

Mitchel clenched his fists tightly, his face cold. He said firmly, "Turn the car."

"Okay, Mr. Dixon."

Matteo then made a U-turn.

As soon as Matteo and Mitchel entered the police station, Matteo saw Stefan in the lobby, pacing back and forth anxiously.

Raegan was still in the interrogation room. She had been there for quite some time. No one knew what was going on inside. Stefan wondered why the interrogation took so long.

With Erick out of the country and no connections in Ardlens, Stefan was on edge, his mind full of worries for Raegan.

Stefan's unease didn't go unnoticed by Mitchel. When he passed by Stefan, Mitchel raised his chin and taunted, "Now you know you can't protect her."

After saying this, Mitchel walked straight in without even giving Stefan a chance to respond.

Raegan's interrogation had already ended. Since she hadn't done anything illegal, she naturally denied the accusations. She recounted in detail everything she remembered that day.

However, Cary had concrete evidence with Raegan's fingerprints on the paper bag containing the drug.

Raegan was baffled. She was the victim of the drug and would do anything but drug Cary. But she couldn't fathom why her fingerprints were on the paper bag.

At this moment, the interrogation room's door was pushed open from the outside. Then, a policeman poked his head in and announced, "Miss Foster, your lawyer is here."This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

The lawyer negotiated until Raegan was allowed to get bailed out. However, she was restricted from traveling abroad until the matter was resolved.

Raegan didn't bother to ask about the arrangement of the lawyer. This eloquent lawyer was probably hired by Erick.

As soon as Raegan stepped out of the interrogation room, another well-dressed gentleman approached her. "Hello! Are you Miss Foster? I am Mr. Foster's lawyer. He entrusted your case to me."

Raegan was surprised to hear this. She turned to the lawyer who had just helped her and asked, "If you're not my brother's lawyer, who are you?"

The lawyer smiled and said, "I am from the legal department of the Dixon Group."

Raegan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that the man who helped her was one of Dixon Group's lawyers. After all, she had misunderstood Mitchel and sent him to the police station. But he went out of his way to help her.

While Raegan was lost in thought, a masculine voice sounded behind her. "It's okay. You don't have to worry about it."

Raegan looked up in astonishment, only to see Mitchel's tired but still handsome face. Complicated emotions surged in her heart.

As soon as Stefan received the news that Raegan had bailed out, he rushed over. Since the temperature in the hall was low, he immediately took off his coat and wrapped it around Raegan's shoulders, thinking she must be cold.

When Mitchel saw this scene, he clenched his fists tightly again.

Raegan turned to Mitchel and said gratefully, "Thank you." She felt obligated to express her gratitude. After all, she couldn't deny the fact that he had helped her.

"Raegan, you don't have to be so polite with me," Mitchel said in a low and magnetic voice. But he sounded a little hoarse due to sleepless nights.

Mitchel's tightly clenched fists behind his back slowly relaxed. This series of subtle gestures was never noticed by others. Mitchel smiled self-deprecatingly. Never did he think that one day he would become so cautious in concealing his emotions. But he didn't mind. He was already happy that Raegan didn't reject his help. She even thanked him.

After thanking Mitchel, Raegan turned to Stefan and asked, "Did you buy me a new phone?"

"Yes," Stefan replied, handing the new phone to Raegan. It was the same as her previous one.

Raegan took it and worked on it for a while.

Then, Raegan turned to Mitchel and said, "Mr. Dixon, I have just transferred one hundred twenty thousand dollars to your bank account."

Mitchel's handsome face instantly turned pale. He pressed his thin lips into a straight line. Then, he asked in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

Raegan curled her lips and quickly lowered her gaze. Then, her expression returned to normal. "I calculated based on the annual salary of the legal department of the Dixon Group. Although it's less than an hour, I accounted it as an hour. Thank you very much for your help."

As soon as she said this, the spacious room suddenly fell silent.

Mitchel froze for a moment. Sadness and embarrassment filled his deep eyes. He didn't expect her to draw a clear line between them. Raegan was willing to let Stefan buy her a phone. But when it came to him, she had to meticulously account for such a trivial matter.

Mitchel couldn't help asking, "Do you really have to draw a clear line between us?" His voice trembled as he tried to suppress his emotions.

"Mr. Dixon, please don't say that. Why should I draw a line? I never had any relationship with you, so there is no need to draw any lines. Please stop getting ahead of yourself. My family can afford to pay for lawyers. Besides, I haven't done anything wrong, so there's really no need for you to do that," Raegan replied calmly.

The implication of Raegan's words was clear. Mitchel should mind his own business.

Raegan was level-minded. She had to thank Mitchel for helping her out and she ought to pay for it. That way, they would be even and owe nothing to each other.

Still, Raegan sensed something was amiss. She had never drugged anyone. So, even though her fingerprints were on the paper bag, it didn't matter. She believed that the police would be fair in their investigation and prove her innocence.

The reason Cary accused, her of drugging him remained a mystery to Raegan. With this question in mind, she walked out of the police station, paying no heed to Mitchel's displeased expression.

After a momentary pause, Mitchel furrowed his brow and followed Raegan.

Outside the police station, Stefan quickly walked to the passenger seat and opened the door for Raegan.

Watching them from afar, Mitchel realized that he didn't feel much pain at the sight after his heart underwent the turmoil. He was almost numb.

Mitchel told himself to endure it. After all, he had waited so long for Raegan to come back to his life. He should avoid doing things she detested. He would never let her disappear again.

Raegan was about to get in Stefan's car when her phone rang. It was Annis calling.

Raegan pressed the answer button and said cheerfully, "Annis, I'm on my way home now. Have you picked Janey up from kindergarten?"

On the other end of the line, Annis could no longer control her panic. "Janey is missing!"
