Chapter 295 Don't Call A Stranger Daddy

Mitchel's handsome visage froze at the sight of Janey's charming face. His intuition, it seemed, had been spot on. This was unquestionably Raegan's daughter. The child of Raegan and Raegan's late husband.

This thought sent a sharp pang through Mitchel's heart, rendering it so constricted that breathing became a struggle.

Meanwhile, the endearing Janey eagerly embraced Mitchel, her arms encircling Mitchel's neck, as she inquired with innocence, "Daddy, are you here to see me?"

Janey's spontaneous gesture left Mitchel in a state of bewilderment.

Truth be told, aside from Raegan, Mitchel had an aversion to being touched by others, be they adults or children.

Nevertheless, the more Janey gazed at Mitchel, the more she liked him.

To everyone's astonishment, Janey planted an unexpected kiss on Mitchel's face.

Janey had wanted Mitchel to be her father. The longer she looked at him, the more she found to like him, eagerly anticipating the moment she could boast to Ann about her incredibly handsome father.

In Janey's eyes, Ann's father paled in comparison.

Despite Raegan's teachings about avoiding disparaging remarks, Janey vividly recalled the last time Ann insulted her with the term "bastard." Ann's father, in turn, laughed at the remark.

This fueled Janey's private disdain for Ann's father, muttering curses under her breath.

In a sweet voice, Janey asked, "Daddy, can we go to the amusement park?"

Mitchel, wearing a complicated expression, attempted to respond but found himself at a loss for words. Janey had pressed close and planted a gentle kiss on his cheek.

Surprisingly, Mitchel didn't find the sweet kiss from this unfamiliar girl distasteful. Instead, an unexplainable sense of affection welled up from the depths of his heart.
