Chapter 1717: Chapter 1722

Raegan gripped the fabric of Erick’s shirt and whispered, “Erick, please keep this between us until I’ve made a decision.

”

Erick nodded.

“Alright, I’ll take care of it.

”

With the check-up confirming she was fine, Raegan decided to go home, mainly concerned about Janey.

Once back home, Raegan saw a woman with short hair and square glasses chatting with Janey.

Not recognizing the woman, Raegan asked Annis, “Who is this?”

Annis replied, “She’s the new psychologist.

The previous one was on a trip, thus the recommendation of this lady.

Mr.

Erick Foster has checked her credentials and approved.

She’s good to go.

”

Janey appeared comfortable, unaffected by the abduction.

After observing the psychologist’s session and finding nothing amiss, Raegan felt reassured.

This new psychologist’s methods were more dynamic and suited Janey better.

After their session, the psychologist expressed an interest in meeting Janey’s mother.

Annis then guided the psychologist to the living room.

The psychologist extended her hand to Raegan and introduced herself, “Hello, I’m Miss Carpenter.

”

“Pleased to meet you, Miss Carpenter,” Raegan responded.

Miss Carpenter handed Raegan a handwritten report and said, “Here’s an evaluation I’ve completed for Janey.

Please take a look.

”

Raegan reviewed it carefully.

Miss Carpenter continued, “From the sessions, you can deduce that Janey is much more resilient than you might think.

The main issue is that she feels quite isolated.

If you think about having more children, now might be a good time to consider it.

Janey would really benefit from having a sibling.

”

After Miss Carpenter departed, Raegan went to Janey’s bedroom to check on her.

On the bedside table, there lay a drawing Janey had made.

The picture showed Janey, her parents, and a small fluffy figure, all building a snowman together.

Below, Janey had written “little brother.

”

Raegan felt a rush of emotion, her nose tingling and twitching uncontrollably.

It seemed like Janey always picked up on any changes in her first.

Raegan tucked Janey in, left the room, and walked to the balcony.

Gazing at the neon lights of Ardlens from the hillside, the city had a special allure at night.

Raegan reflected on her recent interaction with Mitchel.

She knew him well.

Could he really be as cold as his words implied?

Now, with a calmer mind, Raegan wondered what could drive Mitchel, who had prioritized her life over his, to make such a decision and be this cold to her.

After knowing him for years, Raegan understood that Mitchel’s decisions were serious and not easily changed.

But Raegan wasn’t prepared to quit yet, and she wasn’t going to do it without a fight.
