Chapter 296 Steal The Little Girl From Her

Ensuring Janey was sound asleep, Raegan returned to her room. However, slumber eluded her for what felt like an eternity. Perhaps, she should consider finding a stepfather for Janey soon, someone who could play a role in Janey's upbringing.

Raegan was convinced that Kabir would support her decision if he were still around.

Yet, it would have to wait until her divorce from Mitchel was finalized.

The thought of Mitchel stirred up annoyance within Raegan. She buried her head beneath the pillow, emitting an indignant snort. That Mitchel Dixon, a real son of a gun.

A grave ambiance hung heavy in the bar.

Seated at the bar, the three men engaged in a silent bout of heavy drinking.

After the initial round, Luis seamlessly initiated the second round without a pause.

Observing Mitchel downing one glass of alcohol after another, Luis was confused. He finally spoke up, his voice tinged with surprise. "What's eating you?"

However, Mitchel remained silent, his countenance as frigid as ice.

"Isn't it a reason to celebrate now that Raegan's back? Why the long face?" Luis inquired, his curiosity piqued.

At that moment, Mitchel abruptly asked, "Is it possible for a woman's pregnancy to last for two years?"

A sudden clink of glass on the table resonated through the air.

Luis burst into laughter at his words. "Now that's defying common sense, isn't it? You know, I once heard of this woman who didn't give birth until eleven months into her pregnancy, and that's already an exceptionally rare case. Now, you're pondering if it's even possible for a woman to carry a fetus for two years. Are you losing your marbles?"

Mitchel felt disheartened after hearing Luis words. Overwhelmed, he grasped the glass and downed its contents without uttering a word.

"Have you seen Raegan's child?" Luis asked, sensing something.

Mitchel nodded stoically.

Luis nonchalantly inquired, "So, who does the little one take after?"

Upon Luis' query, Mitchel reminisced thoughtfully. Janey possessed round eyes, long eyelashes, and an oval face, bearing a striking resemblance to Raegan, especially when she smiled.

"I'd say she takes after Raegan more," Mitchel finally replied.

As for Kabir, Mitchel had investigated, even laying eyes on Kabir's photograph. Although reluctant to admit it, Kabir bore à faint resemblance to Raegan, leaving Mitchel uncertain about whether Janey took after Raegan or Kabir. However, in his view, Janey's appearance leaned more toward Raegan's.

Out of the blue, Jarrod interjected, "Have you ever considered the possibility that the little girl might be yours?"

If Raegan could miraculously survive after that car incident, then it was within the realm of possibility that Janey belonged to Mitchel.
