Then, she suddenly remembered something.
Wasnât it said that the person Eloise was with in the tent years back was Bryce? Why was Eloise with Mitchel now?
Wait! Bryce said he and Eloise ki*sed in the tent because they were just drunk.
Aside from that, nothing else happened.
That meant nothing was going on between Bryce and Eloise.
In this case, Eloise could be with Mitchel.
After all, the Dixon family had a good impression of Eloiseâs background.
As these things came to Raeganâs mind, she felt something was wrong with her.
Why had she been thinking about Mitchel all along? Didnât she promise herself she would forget everything about him?
The next day, Raegan woke up, feeling listless.
She didnât sleep last night.
Her mind was a mess.
In fact, the incense fell on the floor last night, but she didnât notice it and didnât pick it up.
Raegan had a quick breakfast and then went to see Erick.
Erick lay in the bed, and the nurse had just finished washing him up.
When he saw Raeganâs pale face, he asked, âDidnât you sleep well last night?â
Upon seeing Erickâs probing eyes, Raegan prevaricated, âI havenât been sleeping well lately.
â
Erick didnât doubt her words.
Since she was about to give birth, she must be having difficulty sleeping.
At the thought of this, he comforted her, âDonât worry about anything else.
The most important thing now is for you to give birth to your babies safely.
â
Raegan felt a bit guilty.
Many things had to be put on hold because of her upcoming delivery.
When Erick saw the expression on her face, he understood what was on her mind.
So, he said, âItâs not your fault.
Donât think too much about it.
As for the quicksand fire, weâre still deciphering it.
Davey has been staying indoors lately and even strengthened the security.
We canât get in, and we canât force our way in.
Weâre still figuring out a solution.
â
âI understand,â Raegan replied with a nod.
Erick continued to comfort her, âThereâs no need to rush at this moment.
After all these years, I doubt Davey will suddenly act against our mother.
He might have noticed something, though.
So, letâs wait a bit longer and see what heâs really up to.
â
Raegan realized Erickâs words made sense.
According to their father, Daveyâs connection with their mother was complicated by emotions.
So, Davey wouldnât harm their mother rashly.
But Davey was unpredictable.
If they didnât plan carefully, everyone involved might end disastrously because of an impulsive move.
Of course, that included their mother.
Erick asked casually, âDid you see Mitchel yesterday?â
Raegan thought back to that embarrassing moment and nodded.
Fearing Raegan might overthink it, Erick quickly clarified, âHe came here for the transportation projectâ¦â
âIâm aware,â Raegan interrupted.
âStefan told me about his confession to you yesterdayâ, Erick said, changing the topic.
Stefanâs sincere expression flashed across Raeganâs mind.
At the thought of this, her face flushed slightly.
She remained silent, so Erick probed, âWhat do you think?â
Raegan was about to respond.
But before she could say something, Erick rephrased his question, âAre you seriously considering it?â
