After thanking Mitchel, Raegan made her way toward the waiting car.
But then, unexpectedly, Janey let go of Raegan’s hand and clung tightly to Mitchel’s leg. “Mommy, I want Daddy Mitchel to drive us home.”
Daddy Mitchel? Raegan was stunned by the way Janey addressed Mitchel.
“Janey!” Raegan furrowed her brow and sternly said, “Stop messing around. Let’s get in the vehicle and go home.”
“No!” Janey disregarded Raegan’s words and tried to climb into Mitchel’s arms.
Seeing this, Mitchel lifted Janey with one arm and let her perch on his powerful forearm. Janey then burst into giggles.
“Janey!” Raegan called out again and was somewhat uneasy. Deep down, she didn’t want Janey and Mitchel to grow close.
However, Janey was unwilling to let go of Mitchel. In a spoiled tone, Janey pleaded, “Mommy, let’s take Daddy Mitchel’s car home. There are so many stars on the roof of his car. Janey wants to see them.”
Mitchel had arranged for a car with a starry roof and let Janey peek through the window. Janey was excited to count the stars on the roof.

Mitchel turned to Raegan and suggested in a low and magnetic voice, “Just get in. Your car can follow us.”
Although reluctantly, Raegan agreed and got into his car.
During the ride, Mitchel held Janey in his arms and entertained her with stars’ names. He made up imaginative tales that had Janey giggling with delight.
It was the first time Raegan had seen Mitchel so gentle. She never expected that he would grow so fond of her daughter.
When they arrived at West Lake Villa, Raegan exited the car first and then took Janey from Mitchel’s arms. Then, she asked Annis to take Janey inside.
In a daze, Janey spoke abruptly as Annis carried her in. “Wait a minute.”
The next second, Janey leaped out of Annis‘ arms and ran back to Mitchel, who instinctively reached out to catch Janey and then cradled the little girl in his arms.
Looking up at Mitchel’s striking face, Janey felt a surge of pride.

In her eyes, none of her schoolmates’ fathers could compare to Mitchel. Mitchel looked like he had come straight out of a painting.
Janey’s laughter filled the air. Then, to everyone’s surprise, she planted a big ki*s on Mitchel’s cheeks. “Daddy Mitchel, Janey loves you so much!”
Her sweet voice and affectionate gesture touched Mitchel deeply. It was a warm and heartwarming moment, and he found himself completely enchanted by it.
At this moment, Mitchel somehow felt Janey was his child. He wasn’t only fond of her, but he was also willing to embrace her as his daughter.
“Janey! Daddy…” Mitchel responded, his voice quivering with emotions. “I love you, too. I love you dearly.”
The interaction between them was touching, and the two of them were reluctant to part.
Seeing this, Raegan had mixed emotions and couldn’t help feeling a pang of jealousy. She had worked tirelessly to raise Janey. But now, Janey clung to a stranger she had met just a few days ago.
