Chapter 1363: Chapter 1366

Raegan recalled the agony from their shared past, yet she also remembered Mitchel’s act of bravery when he shielded her from the harm of a knife.

She added flatly, “You’ve hurt me mentally, but you’ve also shielded me from getting physically hurt.

From here on out, we’re even.

Let’s move on.

”

“No, I don’t want to!” Mitchel suddenly tightened his grip on her wrist, his eyes shimmering with tears against the night sky.

“Raegan, I don’t want us to move on.

You had promised me that as long as I could earn Erick’s approval, you’d be with me.

”

Raegan felt a surge of frustration about this promise before she regained her memory.

Her tone was flat, devoid of emotion.

“Then let’s break up!”

“I won’t accept that!” Mitchel’s gaze hardened with resolve.

“I’m not breaking up with you.

”

“Mitchel Dixon!” Raegan’s voice was sharp, her words icy.

“I won’t be with you.

Just have some self-respect.

Stop being hysterical, okay?”

Her words stung.

Never in this life had Mitchel been met with these sarcastic remarks or this flat rejection.

Despite being at the center of admiration all his life, he was now faced with undisguised disdain.

His heart was tightly twisted, hurting unbearably.

Mitchel felt he was on the verge of breaking down.

He bit his lip bitterly, forcing back the tears in his eyes, choking out, “I won’t fight with you over Janey’s custody, but…”

Mitchel stopped, knowing that saying it was for Raegan would push her further away.

“For Janey’s sake, I’m not giving up…”

Then, he turned around slowly, his steps heavy as he walked away.

Raegan watched his retreating figure and felt an unexpected pang in her heart.

A strange emotion bubbled up.

She clenched her fists, forcing herself to suppress it.

She consoled herself that she would move on over time.

The following morning, as Raegan reached the gate with Janey, she noticed a sleek black Luxury car parked nearby.

Mitchel, looking much better than the day before, was standing next to the car, dressed in a sharp suit of black and white.

Janey’s face lit up at the sight of Mitchel, and she quickly ran into his arms, asking excitedly, “Daddy Mitchel, did you come to take me to school today?”

Mitchel bent down, wrapping Janey in a warm hug, and replied with a gentle smile, “Absolutely.

Whenever I’m around and not away on business, I’ll be the one to take you to school and bring you home, okay?”

“Really?” Janey’s excitement was evident, her face beaming with joy as she looked back at Raegan.

“Mommy, is it okay if Daddy Mitchel takes me to school?”

Raegan, not wanting to upset Janey, gave a hesitant nod of approval.

“Woo hoo! Daddy, my mommy said yes!” Janey exclaimed Mitchel locked eyes with Raegan and, with a smile, said, “Dad’s also happy.

”

While Janey was looking elsewhere, Raegan gave Mitchel a look.

After everything she had said to him yesterday, he acted as if nothing had happened.

Worse, he proposed driving Janey to and from school, well aware that she couldn’t bring herself to decline him in front of Janey.

He was clearly doing this on purpose.

The car door swung open, and before Raegan knew it, she was ushered into the backseat by Janey.

Raegan and Mitchel flanked Janey.

Mitchel had decked out the car with everything a child would need, including a car safety seat designed for little ones.

Throughout the ride, Janey and Mitchel filled the air with laughter, sharing stories from the past that kept boredom at bay.

After a teacher welcomed Janey into her kindergarten class, Raegan’s facade of amusement faded, and she turned to Mitchel with a frosty question.

“Mitchel, what’s your angle?”

Her cold inquiry made his heart stumble, yet he managed to steady his voice.

“Raegan, Janey is also my daughter.

I’ve missed too much of her life.

I can’t let her grow up without me anymore.
