Chapter 434 No Longer Interested

Raegan got busy with dinner preparations once again. By the time she finished, it was nearly seven in the evening.

Raegan laid out the dishes on the automatically heated table, ensuring they wouldn't cool down within an hour.

After that, Raegan and Janey sat down, waiting for Mitchel's return.

For a brief moment, Raegan felt as if she had been transported back in time. She used to wait for Mitchel like this five years ago. And now, they had a daughter together.

As time slowly ticked by, Janey's stomach started rumbling. With a pout, she looked up at Raegan and asked with a hint of sadness, "Mommy, when is daddy going to be home?"

Raegan, feeling a mix of helplessness and impatience, responded, "I'm not sure, sweetie. Give me a sec to call him and find out where he is."

Picking up her phone, Raegan dialed Mitchel's number.

The phone rang and rang, but there was no answer.

A sinking feeling started to settle in Raegan's heart. She somehow sensed Mitchel might not show up tonight. But why? If he knew he was going to be late, why hadn't he given her a heads-up?

"Why didn't daddy pick up the phone?" Janey couldn't hide her disappointment when she noticed Raegan's concerned look.

Trying to lift the mood, Raegan offered a reassuring smile.

"He's probably caught up with something right now. How about we start dinner first?"

However, Janey firmly shook her head, insisting, "No, I want to wait for daddy. I was looking forward to sharing my favorite meals with him."

Seeing Janey's stubbornness, Raegan tried a different approach, suggesting gently, "Why don't you try a little bit of the shrimp porridge first?"

After a bit of persuasion, Janey finally agreed to eat some porridge without waiting for Mitchel.

Finishing a bowl of porridge, Janey felt almost full. She continued to wait at the table with Raegan, but eventually, the weariness was too much for her.
