Chapter 318 She's Still Alive

Others often remarked that Janey bore a striking resemblance to Raegan.

However, when Janey stood side by side with Mitchel, their resemblance was undeniable. Their chins, noses, and ears mirrored each other perfectly. Janey appeared as a miniature version of Mitchel.

Even Janey's eyes, which Raegan believed had resembled hers, now bore an uncanny resemblance to Mitchel's.

Raegan couldn't help but be unnerved by this realization.

At that moment, Janey touched Raegan's hand and said with an expression carrying a sense of guilt, "Mommy, I'm sorry."

Raegan was stunned by how someone as commanding as Mitchel had some ways to coax a little girl.

Raegan affectionately ruffled Janey's hair and said, "Mommy forgives you."

As they were about to leave the kindergarten, Erick arranged for a car to pick up Raegan, as Stefan had helped Matteo send those who made a scene and tried to harm Raegan to the police station.

A driver stepped out of the waiting car and approached Raegan. She was a young woman with short hair and a sharp appearance. "Miss Foster, you can call me Victor. I'll ensure your safety from now on, as per Mr. Foster's instructions."

Erick was aware that Raegan had a strong aversion to having bodyguards accompany her everywhere. However, he was genuinely concerned about Raegan's safety after those slandering news wandering around the Internet, so he arranged for Victor to be with her.

After thanking Mitchel, Raegan made her way toward the waiting car.

But then, unexpectedly, Janey let go of Raegan's hand and clung tightly to Mitchel's leg. "Mommy, I want Daddy Mitchel to drive us home."

Daddy Mitchel? Raegan was stunned by the way Janey addressed Mitchel.

"Janey!" Raegan furrowed her brow and sternly said, "Stop messing around. Let's get in the vehicle and go home."

"No!" Janey disregarded Raegan's words and tried to climb into Mitchel's arms.

Seeing this, Mitchel lifted Janey with one arm and let her perch on his powerful forearm. Janey then burst into giggles.

"Janey!" Raegan called out again and was somewhat uneasy. Deep down, she didn't want Janey and Mitchel to grow close.

However, Janey was unwilling to let go of Mitchel. In a spoiled tone, Janey pleaded, "Mommy, let's take Daddy Mitchel's car home. There are so many stars on the roof of his car. Janey wants to see them."

Mitchel had arranged for a car with a starry roof and let Janey peek through the window. Janey was excited to count the stars on the roof.

Mitchel turned to Raegan and suggested in a low and magnetic voice, "Just get in. Your car can follow us."

Although reluctantly, Raegan agreed and got into his car.

During the ride, Mitchel held Janey in his arms and entertained her with stars' names. He made up imaginative tales that had Janey giggling with delight.

It was the first time Raegan had seen Mitchel so gentle. She never expected that he would grow so fond of her daughter.
