The director conveyed the chaos, “Investors are storming our offices, demanding their money back. What's our move?"

Katie, already at her wit's end, lashed out in fury. "Use your head! Why are you bombarding me with questions? Just stall them for now!"

The director, voice trembling, responded, "I've tried, but they're escalating matters. They've involved the police and reached out to the media, accusing us of engaging in false advertising and fraud..."

This scandal threatened not only the current project but had the potential to tarnish the reputation of all Glyn family ventures. The scale of the potential financial fallout was staggering.

Katie seethed at the thought of Raegan remaining untouched amid their last confrontation while Mitchel mercilessly dealt with her. Her eyes flashed with malice. "Give the list of those who are causing the most trouble to Abel."

The director hastily agreed, knowing all too well Abel's reputation for handling matters with a firm hand. Those who received his warnings rarely dared to stir further trouble.

After ending the call, Katie slumped to the floor, a gesture of defeat, her hands covering her face.

After a moment of heavy silence, she made another call, her voice icy. "About that partnership you hinted at before, what are your terms?"

Meanwhile, Raegan arrived home from a trip to the shopping mall, feeling a wave of relief wash over her.

Mitchel had denied paternity of Katie's child, while both Katie and Luciana were adamant that he was the father. Katie's claims alone might not have held much weight, but Luciana's insistence added a layer of complexity to the situation. Luciana, after all, wouldn't want to bring shame upon Mitchel.

The deeper Raegan delved into these thoughts, the more she found herself tangled in their complexities. She chose to push these musings aside, yet, the sting of feeling deceived by Mitchel lingered within her heart.

Upon returning home, Raegan spent some joyful moments with Janey and gently explained that now wasn't the right time to delve into the matter of Janey's father's identity, suggesting another time.

Janey, showing maturity beyond her years yet tinged with disappointment, agreed, "Mommy, I'll listen to you."

Raegan's heart swelled with love as she regarded her daughter. She couldn't help but suspect there was a sinister intent lurking behind Katie's outwardly sanctimonious demeanor.

After causing Katie embarrassment earlier, Raegan worried about the potential repercussions, especially if Katie discovered Janey's paternity. This made her resolve to be even more vigilant regarding anything related to Janey.

That evening, after Janey had settled into bed, a servant relayed that Mitchel had come to visit.

Raegan, preferring not to face Mitchel, instructed, "Just say I'm asleep."

Yet, the servant returned shortly to inform her that despite the message, Mitchel remained outside.

Nodding, Raegan dismissed the servant. “Let him be. You go rest."

Alone, Raegan checked her phone to find it flooded with messages from Mitchel. Initially attempts to call were followed by numerous texts.
