Love Unbreakable

Chapter 415 Apologize To Him

Raegan lingered on the bed before finally getting up. Her mind. was occupied with Nicole's troubles, yet she pissed Mitchel off

But the knowledge of Nicole being with Jarrod had helped the task of locating Nicole easier.

Plus, Jarrod didn't go to the hospital to tend to his injuries. Raegan figured he did so to protect Nicole. After all, the doctor had to call the police if they saw injuries of this magnitude.

Raegan felt much relieved. It looked like Mitchel was correct in saying that Jarrod wouldn't harm Nicole.

Raegan then texted Judd, requesting him to check Jarrod's current location.

During this time, Annis approached, inviting Raegan to join them for breakfast downstairs.

Raegan replied and then stood in front of the dressing mirror, surprised. Her neck was marked with hickeys of various sizes. How could Mitchel kiss her neck this fervently? That was too much!

Raegan opened the wardrobe with frustration and picked out a vintage lace shirt, but there were still some hickeys that she couldn't hide. Left with no alternative, she chose a silk scarf. However, hiding the hickeys seemed to only draw more attentionThis belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Reaching the dining table, Raegan froze at the sight of Mitchel holding Janey. Mitchel did not leave! He stormed out of her room just moments ago.

Now, here Mitchel was, skinning a sweet potato for Janey.

Noticing Raegan's hesitation, Annis looked her way and mentioned, "Mr. Dixon arrived early today to join Janey for breakfast."

At the table, Janey and Mitchel set their eyes on Raegan. "Mommy, over here!" Janey's eyes sparkled with excitement. Raegan moved closer and sat down.

Janey slid a plate of peeled sweet potatoes toward Raegan, exclaiming joyfully, "Mommy, daddy prepared sweet potatoes for me. Try some."

Raegan hadn't pulled herself together and stole a glance at Mitchel.

Mitchel didn't return her gaze, focusing instead on Janey and the task of peeling the sweet potato, showing no intention of acknowledging Raegan.

The silence was uncomfortable.

Janey encouraged, "Mommy, try it. Daddy peeled it himself!" "Alright." Raegan tasted a piece of the sweet potato. Its sweetness was preserved since it was roasted in its skin.

"Does it taste good?" Janey asked, her eyes full of curiosity. Mitchel looked up, casting a brief glance at Raegan's unusual outfit.

Raegan blushed and said, "Yes."

"You should say thanks to daddy, right? You always tell me to thank people who help me," Janey reminded Raegan in her innocent tone. "Mommy, did you forget?"

Hearing this, Raegan's cheeks deepened in color. She bowed her head and said quickly, "Thank you." Her voice was barely audible, like a whisper.

"Mommy..." Janey frowned. "You should make eye contact when you say thank you. You just thanked your plate, not daddy."

Lifting her head, Raegan met Mitchel's intense gaze, recalling how he had admired her in the morning light, complimenting every inch of her with a heartfelt "Very beautiful!"

Raegan's ears felt hot in response. She managed to say, "Thanks. The sweet potato is really good."

"You're welcome," Mitchel said quietly. He was pissed off by her this morning. Although his handsome face was still unconcerned, he was a little happy in his heart. It was not like he couldn't do anything about her. Janey seemed helpful to the situation.

In family dynamics, there was always someone who had the upper hand. It appeared Janey had made things right for Mitchel after what he endured.

Raegan observed Mitchel's indifferent expression and chose to remain silent.

Then, Janey, as if she had discovered something extraordinary, pointed at a mark on Mitchel's jaw and asked, "Daddy, what happened here?"

Raegan's gaze followed Janey's finger, and she almost gasped at the sight. During their earlier argument, she hadn't noticed the distinct bite mark on the side of Mitchel's attractive face.

Mitchel was at a loss for words. "It's a mosquito bite," he claimed in a deep tone, yet Raegan detected a hint of tease in his voice.

Janey's eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Daddy, I've never seen such a big mosquito!"

"You should have seen it."

"But why did it bite you so fiercely?" Janey asked.

With a slight smile, Mitchel looked at Raegan and said, "Because the mosquito was too hungry to resist."

A moment of silence followed.

Raegan's face suddenly turned red! What was he implying! After five years of staying away, he wasn't the only one going crazy. They had shared moments of happiness. Even though Raegan's mind was foggy at first, it nearly went wild once it fully developed.

Raegan could still recall his raspy voice from the morning. "If it gets too much... Just bite me... It's okay... Don't bite yourself..." He had actually said that!

Janey suggested, "Daddy, maybe feed the mosquito beforehand so it won't bite as hard."

Mitchel chuckled, thinking it was a clever idea. But it was clear as day Raegan was anything but grateful! He responded casually, "Alright, I got it."

Raegan couldn't stand it anymore. She coughed and said, "Janey, have some porridge."

Raegan then gave Mitchel a stern look. She cursed him silently.

Mitchel picked up a bowl of the porridge, stirred it, and fed it to Janey. "Janey, if you eat well, mosquitoes won't bite you."

Raegan found herself at a loss for words. Mitchel must have said those words deliberately!

Throughout the meal, Janey's lively banter filled the room, with Raegan occasionally responding.

Mitchel was good at taking care of kids. Janey often refused to eat and needed to be coaxed. Yet, today, she ate more than she typically would.

It looked like Mitchel was truly cut out to be a caring dad.

The thought crossed Raegan's mind, but she immediately dismissed it. She couldn't afford to entertain such a dangerous thought.

Mitchel noticed Raegan's head shake, finding her adorable. His demeanor softened, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Right then, Mitchel's phone on the table rang.

Annis offered to hold Janey so that Mitchel could answer the call more conveniently.

However, Mitchel waved his hand dismissively, holding Janey with one arm and picking up the phone with the other.

Mitchel asked, "How's he doing? Alright, I'll check on him later."

Raegan pricked up her ears, hoping to listen more, but the call had ended.

Mitchel glanced at Raegan, who had just started rearranging the tableware, and remained silent.

After they finished eating, Annis escorted Janey upstairs to await her teacher.

Raegan's thoughts lingered on Mitchel's recent phone conversation. She suspected it involved Jarrod, judging from the tone.

She noticed Mitchel getting up and heading for the door. She hastily stood up, hurried after him, and asked, "Are you leaving?"

With his hands stuffed in his pockets, Mitchel glanced back at her, as if anticipating her to say something.

Raegan hesitated before asking, "Where... Where are you going?"

Mitchel arched an eyebrow and said, "What? A sex partner's schedule deserves your attention?"

Raegan found herself at a loss for words once more. Knowing the cause of his displeasure, she had embraced herself for being taunted. She softened her tone since she desperately wanted to save Nicole out of Jarrod's place. "Is that call about Nicole?"

Mitchel frowned. He knew it. Raegan asked only for the sake of her friend. Even though he had expected it, Mitchel couldn't hold back his frustration. "So now I'm useful to you?"

His words stung Raegan. She sorted of understood his feelings. Those words were far from being pleasant.

Raegan lowered her eyes slightly and thought maybe she should apologize to him. Her harsh words were stemmed from her fear of harboring hopes anymore. She didn't feel like being hurt or being mocked again, O

Raegan showed bravery in admitting her mistakes. Having realized her words were way harsher than the situation needed, she plucked her courage up and uttered, "I'm sorry..."
