Mitchel was still the same. Unless she aligned with his wishes, he would always try to dominate her.

Raegan was grateful that she stayed level-headed and didn't give in.

They were not a good match.

Raegan lingered on the bed before finally getting up. Her mind was occupied with Nicole's troubles, yet she pissed Mitchel off.

But the knowledge of Nicole being with Jarrod had helped the task of locating Nicole easier.

Plus, Jarrod didn't go to the hospital to tend to his injuries.

Raegan figured he did so to protect Nicole. After all, the doctor had to call the police if they saw injuries of this magnitude.

Raegan felt much relieved. It looked like Mitchel was correct in saying that Jarrod wouldn't harm Nicole.

Raegan then texted Judd, requesting him to check Jarrod's current location.

During this time, Annis approached, inviting Raegan to join them for breakfast downstairs.

Raegan replied and then stood in front of the dressing mirror, surprised. Her neck was marked with hickeys of various sizes. How could Mitchel kiss her neck this fervently? That was too much!

Raegan opened the wardrobe with frustration and picked out a vintage lace shirt, but there were still some hickeys that she couldn't hide.

Left with no alternative, she chose a silk scarf. However, hiding the hickeys seemed to only draw more attention.

Reaching the dining table, Raegan froze at the sight of Mitchel holding Janey. Mitchel did not leave! He stormed out of her room just moments ago.

Now, here Mitchel was, skinning a sweet potato for Janey.

Noticing Raegan's hesitation, Annis looked her way and mentioned, “Mr. Dixon arrived early today to join Janey for breakfast."

At the table, Janey and Mitchel set their eyes on Raegan.

“Mommy, over here!" Janey's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Raegan moved closer and sat down.

Janey slid a plate of peeled sweet potatoes toward Raegan, exclaiming joyfully, “Mommy, daddy prepared sweet potatoes for me. Try some."
