Caught off guard, Raegan asked, âHow did you know?â
Mitchel looked slightly concerned, âShe seems to shiver unconsciously while sleeping.
â
After a brief silence, Raegan explained, âJaney shivered when she was smaller.
The doctor mentioned it might be due to the motherâs scare.
But sheâs gotten much better after treatment overseas.
â
The phrase âthe motherâs scareâ deeply pained Mitchel.
He wondered how Raegan managed to give birth in such perilous conditions.
He dared not to delve deeper into his thoughts.
The mere thought was suffocating enough.
He scolded himself for not being able to protect Raegan and their child properly.
Given another chance, he would guard them with his life.
Mitchelâs eyes were resolute, reflecting his firm decision.
No excuses or hesitations.
He had to be by their side, ready to protect them no matter what.
The intensity in Mitchelâs eyes startled Raegan, who quickly regained her composure and hurried downstairs.
Mitchel watched her leave, his expression showing a hint of sadness.
Outside, Matteo hadnât shown up yet.
Raegan lingered by the doorway, hesitant to go back inside.
Feeling uneasy and seeing no sign of Matteo, Raegan offered, âShould we call Matteo?â
Mitchel responded with a light tone, âAnswering calls while driving isnât safe for him.
Heâll be here shortly.
â
Raegan was doubtful, but before she could press the issue, she listened as he proposed, âLuis knows a reputable psychologist.
Letâs meet him first.
If you find him suitable, we can bring Janey along, alright?â
Raegan paused, not rejecting the suggestion.
Janey tended to become withdrawn when her condition flared up.
While it was rare, a complete cure would certainly be better.
She trusted Luisâ expertise in the medical field.
Any doctor he vouched for would undoubtedly be trustworthy.
Raegan agreed, âAlright, letâs go see him.
â
Mitchelâs smile then lit up, warm light illuminated his handsome profile, accentuating his particularly charming smile.
While Raegan was still puzzling over his sudden smile, he added, âYes, both of us.

She realized his implication and felt a rush of warmth in her cheeks, eager to distance herself.
âJust wait here by yourselfâ¦â Raegan couldnât finish her sentence when he suddenly reached out, drawing her into his embrace.
Raeganâs eyes widened in shock, her look as fierce as a small, defensive hedgehog, she protested, âHey, whatâs this about?â
Mitchel remained silent, resting his head against her neck, his breathing causing a ticklish sensation.
Raegan attempted to push him away.
âMitchel! Release me!â
âRaegan,â he whispered her name, his voice near her skin.
Raegan froze.
Then, he stated again, his voice rough, âThank you.
â
Raegan was taken aback, puzzled by his sudden gratitude.
