Chapter: 1405
The interaction between them was touching, and the two of them were reluctant to part.
Seeing this, Raegan had mixed emotions and couldn't help feeling a pang of jealousy. She had worked tirelessly to raise Janey. But now, Janey clung to a stranger she had met just a few days ago.
It seemed that the psychologist was right. Janey's autism might have been triggered by her longing for a father figure in her life.
While finding a loving father figure for Janey seemed like the solution, the catch was that the man Janey had grown attached to was Raegan's ex-husband, which made any consideration of remarriage out of the question.
Mitchel walked over to Raegan with Janey in his arms and said, "Janey, be a good girl. If your mommy agrees, I'll take you to the amusement park this weekend."
Janey turned to look at Raegan with her cute big eyes and asked, “Mommy, is that okay?"
Raegan didn't have the heart to refuse Janey, so she replied, "It depends on whether I'm busy this weekend. How about you go in with Annis first? Mommy needs to talk to Mitchel."
Although Janey wasn't happy, she obediently nodded. "Good night, mommy. Good night, Daddy Mitchel."
Once Janey had entered the house, Raegan expressed her gratitude to Mitchel, “Thank you for today."
Mitchel nodded. "It's nothing."
Raegan lowered her head and continued, "I'm sorry for what happened yesterday." She had learned from the police officers that Darryl had been the one to save her first. And with Mitchel's help, she managed to safely escape the hotel.
Mitchel's Adam's apple bobbed upon hearing this, and he replied in a hushed tone, "Don't mention it. Honestly, I was tempted to do something to you."
After all, Raegan had been so alluring at that moment, making it impossible for Mitchel to remain composed.
Raegan's eyes widened in surprise. She couldn't believe what she had just heard.
Now that Janey wasn't around, Mitchel didn't have to be concerned about his words. "But I was afraid you wouldn't forgive me, so I didn't act on it in the end," he added with a shrug.
His candidness rendered Raegan speechless. She lifted her gaze to find Mitchel staring at her with his intense eyes. He was dressed in a sharp black suit, and his figure rendered him strikingly handsome in the dimly lit night. Particularly eye-catching was the button of his shirt, fastened up to the top, accentuating his prominent Adam's apple.
Raegan's cheeks suddenly flushed. Embarrassed, she shifted the conversation. "By the way, regarding the recording, what's it all about?"
"Would you like to hear it?" Mitchel clicked on the recording, and the steamy conversation filled the air.
"Are you sure you want it?" Mitchel asked in a hoarse and seemingly strained voice.
"Yes, I'm sure... Hmm... Why don't you let me do it... Naughty man...
