But given her condition, she brushed it off and decided to let nature take its course.

And now, the news of expecting twins overwhelmed Raegan. She read the report repeatedly, struggling to grasp the reality and unable to pinpoint her feelings.

Noticing her lack of excitement, Erick asked, "Raegan, what's on your mind?"

Erick had sensed some tension between Raegan and Mitchel. Raegan's fainting yesterday likely stemmed from pregnancy-related weaknesses and possibly Mitchel's words.

If it weren't for Mitchel's mother still lying in ICU, Erick would not have held back this long from settling scores with Mitchel. As a son himself, Erick understood how Mitchel felt and chose to swallow his anger for a bit.

Raegan paused for a few moments, her hands sweating. “Erick, I need some time to think."

“Okay, whatever you decide, I'm here for you," Erick reassured her.

Being siblings, Raegan and Erick understood each other well enough without needing to say much.

Raegan couldn't quite express what she was feeling. It was a mix of sadness and a glimmer of hope. She was pregnant. What would Mitchel think if he found out?

But then, Raegan remembered his dismissive words. “We? What relationship do we have?"

"Discussing love after divorce seems absurd."

“If there was love, wouldn't we still be together?"

Raegan was left speechless. Her heart felt like it was being pulled harshly, which snapped her out of her daze.

Raegan gripped the fabric of Erick's shirt and whispered, “Erick, please keep this between us until I've made a decision."

Erick nodded. "Alright, I'll take care of it."

With the check-up confirming she was fine, Raegan decided to go home, mainly concerned about Janey.

Once back home, Raegan saw a woman with short hair and square glasses chatting with Janey.

Not recognizing the woman, Raegan asked Annis, "Who is this?"

Annis replied, "She's the new psychologist. The previous one was on a trip, thus the recommendation of this lady. Mr. Erick Foster has checked her credentials and approved. She's good to go."

Janey appeared comfortable, unaffected by the abduction.
