Chapter: 1393
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!"
Upon hearing Annis' words of Janey's missing, Raegan's legs turned to jelly. "Annis, what do you mean by that? Where was Janey last seen?
What exactly had happened?"
Annis said between sobs, "Back then, the driver and I were already outside the kindergarten before the bell rang. We were waiting for Janey to go out. But the gate of the kindergarten was crowded with people who kept saying they were looking for the child of that bad woman. The bad woman they were referring to was you. They said there were videos on the Internet to prove it.
I had no idea what was going on. When I finally squeezed through the crowd and got into the kindergarten, the teacher told me that Janey probably hid somewhere in the kindergarten out of fear. Those teachers said they couldn't find Janey yet."
When Raegan heard this, she felt like she was struck by lightning.
Her face instantly turned pale, and her legs went limp. But she tried her best to speak. “Annis, keep looking for her. I'll be right there."
Stefan overheard Raegan's conversation with Annis on the phone. He didn't ask any questions and started the car without hesitation. He turned to Raegan and comforted her, "Calm down. Janey will be fine.
Let's go and see what exactly is going on."
Behind them, Mitchel was standing in front of the vehicle. Although he didn't hear anything, he saw how Raegan freaked out and exclaimed something on the phone. Even from a distance, he felt how anxious she was. He wondered what had gone down.
Then, Mitchel saw Stefan's car dash away. His face instantly darkened.
He quickly got in the car and ordered, “Follow them."
