Unfazed, Raegan asked Katie directly, "So, Miss Glyn, was your pregnancy unplanned? Where did it occur? When?"

Katie gazed at Raegan as if confronted by a monstrous enigma, unable to fathom why such questions were being posed. Shouldn't Raegan be avoiding such probing questions?

Raegan actually didn't care at all. She knew very well that Katie aimed to incite and disgust her.

In this battle, Raegan was determined not to be outdone. She gently clasped Mitchel's arm, a smile playing on her lips. “If you can't answer these questions, how can I trust Mitchel loved you?"

Katie lapsed into silence.

Raegan persisted, her tone firm, "You see, you're still unable to provide any answers. You can't even clarify how this child came to be, or how far along it is now. Simple questions, yet you remain silent."

Katie seethed with frustration. Yet, no matter how she wracked her brain, all that escaped her lips was, "It's Mitchel's child."

Observing Luciana's distress ease, Mitchel felt the urge to depart, truly loathing Katie's presence. He clasped Raegan's hand, readying to depart.

In a desperate attempt to halt Mitchel's departure, Luciana sat up urgently, her voice echoing through the room. "Mitchel, wait! How can you treat Katie like this? Even though she didn't respond to the questions, I know she's three and a half months pregnant. I trust Katie. She's carrying your child!"

Mitchel's brow furrowed, halting his steps instantly.

Mitchel's gaze lingered on Katie's belly, filled with profound feelings.

Katie felt her heart race under such intense scrutiny.

"Three and a half months?" Mitchel's expression shifted to its usual detached coolness as he echoed Luciana's words.

Katie felt a buzzing in her ears, her mind momentarily going blank.

Her resentment toward Luciana intensified at that moment.

Luciana just blurted out Katie's month of pregnancy despite her promise of against saying so.

While Katie scrambled for an answer, Mitchel addressed Luciana, "Mom, grab some rest. I'll leave Marcelo with you for any assistance you might need."

Marcelo Clifford was the assistant arranged by Mitchel for Luciana's care. Mitchel ought to dedicate more time to Luciana due to the latter's injury. But since Luciana was adamant about keeping Katie here, Mitchel didn't feel like sticking around.

Moreover, with plenty of servants in the house and extra security Mitchel had arranged discreetly, he felt comfortable leaving Marcelo behind to prevent Katie from causing trouble.

Raegan offered a courteous goodbye to Luciana, “Wishing you well and a peaceful rest."
