Chapter 384 She's Not Your Child As Raegan looked at him with cold eyes, Mitchel felt an overwhelming pain in his limbs. Janey was their daughter! Yet, Raegan acted as if he were a stranger, or worse, an enemy.

She was being so harsh with him...

Janey noticed Raegan's hands trembling, mistaking her nervousness for anger, and began to cry. "Mommy, I'm sorry. Daddy... He didn't mean to make it seem like he was taking me away. I just like being with him. Please, don't be mad, okay?" Raegan's eyes immediately welled up with tears at the sight of Janey crying, tears falling like raindrops. She couldn't help feeling on edge ever since she regained her memory,

terrified at the thought that Mitchel might take Janey away. After all, Mitchel had the means to do it if he really wanted to.

"Janey..." Raegan let Janey lean on her shoulder, trying to stop Janey's tears, her eyes red. "Mommy isn't mad, sweetheart. I'm sorry. I promise to keep my feelings in check from now on." Mitchel moved as if to embrace them both, but his hand stopped mid-air and fell back to his side, clenched in frustration. The silent agony within him turned his eyes a deep shade of red.

Janey raised her round face, watching her mom closely, and asked with caution, "Mommy... Are you really not mad at me?" Janey's grown-up question made Raegan feel a deep, uneasy sensation in her heart. How could she possibly

forget? Janey had turned shy and withdrawn for some time because she didn't have a dad around. It took her a long while to open up. Raegan knew she shouldn't let her daughter feel hurt again.

Her throat felt parched as Raegan said in a rasped voice, "Mommy is really not mad..." "Then, Mommy is mad at Dad..." Janey quickly corrected herself, seeming to hesitate, "Is Mommy mad at Uncle?" Raegan stopped for a moment and then weakly replied, "No. I am not mad at him either. I was just a bit worried when I couldn't find you." Upon hearing this, Janey's spirits lifted, and she smiled widely. "See, my mommy isn't mad at you." Mitchel understood that Raegan's words were meant to reassure Janey.

He moved closer to coax Janey, "Yes your mommy isn't mad at me. I will do my best not to upset your mommy." With that, Mitchel hugged Janey, gave Raegan a meaningful look, and declared, "Daddy will take you and your mommy home." Raegan was at a loss for words.

Then, Mitchel gently took Raegan's hand in his. He gripped it firmly, sharing his warmth with Raegan's cold hands.

Raegan tried to pull away but couldn't manage it. Just as she was about to get angry, she heard Mitchel's deep voice.
