Divorced But Desired: Winning Back His Ex-wife

"You're pregnant. Congratulations!"

At that moment, Raegan Hayes seemed somewhat distracted. Her thoughts were consumed by the doctor's words from earlier in the day.

Suddenly, Mitchel Dixon pinched her sharply, and said in a low voice, "What are you thinking about?"

Before Raegan could reply, he grabbed the back of her head and kissed her passionately.

After their intimate moment, Mitchel got up and walked to the bathroom.

Raegan remained on the large bed, feeling completely drained, her hair drenched, her eyes resembling deep pools, showing sheer exhaustion.

After a while, she opened the drawer and pulled out the pregnancy test report.

That afternoon, Raegan visited the hospital due to stomach discomfort. A blood test revealed she was nearly five weeks pregnant.

At that time, Raegan was shocked, as they had always taken precautions.

The sound of water dripping echoed from the bathroom, where her secret husband of two years, Mitchel, was. He was also her superior, the CEO of the Dixon Group.

Their relationship began with a drunken accident that led to a night together soon after she started her job in the Dixon Group.

When Mitchel's grandfather became seriously ill, he suggested a sham marriage to fulfill his grandfather's desire to see him settled down.

They signed a prenuptial agreement and kept their marriage hidden from their coworkers, knowing they could end it whenever they chose.

At that time, Raegan felt like she had hit the jackpot. She had adored Mitchel secretly for eight years and was thrilled to marry him, so she accepted his proposal without hesitation.

After they got married, Mitchel often disappeared for work, even being away for twenty-five days a month sometimes. Yet, in those two years, he remained faithful. No other women and no scandals surrounded him.

Despite his aloof demeanor, Mitchel was nearly the ideal husband.

Holding the pregnancy test report, Raegan felt a mix of joy and worry. She decided it was time to tell him. She also wanted to reveal that their meeting two years ago wasn't their first. She had loved him for a total of ten years!

In the bathroom, the water finally stopped.

As soon as Mitchel came out, his phone rang, and he went to the balcony to answer it, wearing only a towel.

Raegan checked the time. It was already past midnight. She grew uneasy. Who could be calling at such a late hour?

After the phone call, Mitchel approached. Without hesitating, he untied his towel. His physique was impressive, showcasing defined abs, strong muscles, and lengthy legs.

Even though Raegan had seen him like this many times, she still blushed and her heart raced.

Mitchel went over to the bedside, grabbed his shirt and pants, and dressed himself. His attractive hands fastened his tie, and his sharp, handsome features looked noble and elegant. He was so striking that it almost made Raegan's head spin.

"Get some rest," Mitchel said.

Was he planning to leave? Raegan felt a sting of disappointment, holding the pregnancy test report tightly and unconsciously pulling back. After thinking it over, she murmured, "It's really late."

Mitchel, who was adjusting his tie, stopped and reached out to lightly tug on her earlobe, his lips curling slightly. "Not feeling sleepy tonight?"

Raegan's cheeks turned red, and her heart thumped uncontrollably. Just as she was about to respond, he let go of her and said, "Be good. I still have some work to do. Don't wait up for me."

Then, he walked out.

Left alone at home, Raegan tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Out of boredom, she picked up her phone and began scrolling through it.

Her phone displayed updates from the entertainment news.

She wasn't particularly interested, but just as she was about to switch off her phone, a familiar name caught her eye, compelling her to click on it. "Lauren Murray, the designer, returns to the country, spotted at the airport with her mysterious boyfriend?"

In the photo, Lauren wore a hat, and the man with her was only partially visible, but his impressive stature was noticeable.

Raegan zoomed in on the photo, her mind racing. That man was actually Mitchel! Had he canceled an afternoon meeting at the last minute to meet his ex-girlfriend Lauren at the airport?

Suddenly, Raegan felt an intense pressure in her chest, causing her to panic. Her hands trembling, she accidentally pressed Mitchel's phone number.

Flustered, Raegan was just about to disconnect the call when a voice answered on the other end. "Hello?" The woman's voice was soothingly gentle.

Raegan hesitated for a brief moment and abruptly dropped the phone.

Immediately afterward, her stomach churned as if it were being stirred, and she rushed to the bathroom to throw up violently.
