Raegan frowned, recalling her feelings toward Mitchel before she regained her memory.
She was easily charmed by Mitchelâs sweet nothings, making her heart flutter uncontrollably.
His thoughtfulness lifted her mood.
However, now that she had regained memory, she was downhearted by his previous distrust and his repeated absence every time she needed him the most.
Although Mitchel had been trying to make amends now, the damage had already been done.
Could making amends erase the pain?
Noticing Raeganâs frowning and loss of thought, Stefan felt his question overstepped.
So, he coughed lightly and said, âSorry, I shouldnât have asked you about this.
â
It was only then that Raegan snapped back to reality.
âItâs okay.
â
At this moment, Janey ran in with sweat on her forehead, saying, âMommy, Iâm thirsty.
â
Annis came in with a baby water bottle, wanting to give Janey the water.

Stefan took it from Annis, smiled warmly, and said, âJaney, can I feed you the water?â
Janey remembered Raegan was still sick, so she nodded obediently.
Stefan picked Janey up and let her sit on his lap.
Then, he gave her the water.
While Janey was drinking, some water spilled from the corner of her mouth.
Raegan took a tissue, bent down, and gently wiped it off for Janey.
Because of this, the three of them became much closer together.
When Stefan saw that Janey was done drinking water, he told her a joke, making her laugh non-stop.
Janeyâs laughter was so contagious that Raegan was influenced by it.
She momentarily set aside her worries, and her face lightened up when she smiled.
Janey laughed so hard in Stefanâs arms that she almost slipped off.
Raegan instinctively reached out to catch Janey, but she swayed.
Fortunately, Stefan was alert.
He did not only hold Janey securely but also steadied the wobbling Raegan.
Thinking it was a game, Janey clapped her hands and asked them to do it again.
Raegan said worriedly, âLetâs not do it again, okay? Itâs a bit dangerous.
â
Stefan chimed in with a smile, âCutie Janey, listen to your mom, okay? Letâs play something safe.
â
Janey held Raeganâs and Stefanâs hands together and said with a smile, âThen letâs play pat-a-cake, okay?â
Stefanâs broad palm covered the back of Raeganâs hand, dry and warm.
However, Raegan felt a sense of repulsion.
She had the urge to withdraw her hand.
This subconscious repulsion made her froze.
Why was she repulsive? Why did she repel other menâs touch?
