Chapter 390

«Dad Mitchel. "He promised to go to the amusement park with me."

Janey responded happily.

Annis was surprised by this revelation, as she had not heard Raegan make any plans with Mitchel.

Gently stroking Janey's head, Annis suggested, "Why don't you play with your bunny for a bit? "I'm going to see if your mommy is ready to go."

In Raegan's room, Annis relayed Janey's words to her.

Raegan was equally surprised. It didn't take him long to remember Mitchel's comforting words about visiting the amusement park with Janey.

Ever the naïve, Janey didn't realize that the reason Mitchel had told her at the time was mainly to comfort her, given Mitchel's busy schedule.

This put Raegan in a difficult situation. He assumed that Mitchel would not be available, since he was the CEO of the Dixon Group.

Plus, Raegan was uncomfortable at the thought of going to the amusement park with her ex-husband.

With these thoughts in mind, Raegan approached Janey, wanting to negotiate with her.

"Janey, how about going to the amusement park today with just Mom?"

Raegan suggested softly.

At these words, the excited gleam in Janey's eyes disappeared. Unlike other children, Janey was quite sensitive. She assumed that Mitchel no longer wanted to accompany her to the amusement park. Trying to hold back her tears, she pursed her lips and nodded morosely. It's not that she didn't want to go with Raegan, but she was upset because Mitchel had promised to accompany them. How could he break his promise?

Janey's disappointment was evident. She took off the cloak she had chosen and retreated to a corner, clutching her toy rabbit.

Soon, Annis found Janey sobbing quietly.

Raegan, seeing this, felt a pang of guilt. Understanding Janey's sensitivity, she knew why the girl was so upset.

Annis, unable to see Janey like this, suggested, "Why don't you call Mr. Dixon and see if he's available?"

Raegan had no choice but to dial Mitchel's number anyway.

The phone rang for a long time without being picked up. Raegan was about to give up, but the image of Janey's disappointed face prompted her to try again.

This time, the call was connected after a few rings.

Raegan felt a wave of nervousness as he began to speak. «Hello, I'm calling to ask if you are free…».

Before she could finish, a woman's voice interrupted her from the other end of the line. “I'm sorry, but Mitchel is in a meeting,” the voice on the other end informed him.

Raegan was momentarily taken aback. Then the woman asked, "Are you Raegan Foster?"

Raegan confirmed her identity and the woman introduced herself: “I'm Katie. "We met the other day."

Raegan remembered the name, but had little interest in continuing the conversation with Katie. He responded politely but briefly: “Well, if it's not available, that's all I needed to know. Bye bye".

However, Katie seemed ready to continue the conversation. Raegan, I remember last time you said you didn't have feelings for Mitchel. If so, maybe you should ask other men to take care of your personal affairs. Don't you think so? After all, it's not very appropriate to continue bothering someone else's fiancé, right?

Raegan could feel Katie's arrogance even through the phone.

Katie made it seem like Raegan was having an affair with Mitchel.

Just then, Raegan almost lost her cool and almost hung up. Was Katie really in a relationship with Mitchel? The question was on his mind. If Katie's words were true, what was Mitchel's intention when he was chasing her lately? Who had he taken her for? What an idiot! Bastard! Moron!

With these thoughts, Raegan replied in a calm tone: -I'm sorry, I didn't know you were engaged. "I promise not to contact Mitchel again."

Raegan didn't feel any guilt as she sincerely apologized. He stood his ground, thinking that if Katie was telling the truth and had known sooner, she would never have gotten involved with Mitchel. Plus, it was Mitchel who kept showing up in her life. If Katie was telling the truth, Mitchel was definitely trash.

Why don't you look on the internet, Raegan? Didn't you see the news about our engagement before? Katie said, bringing up the news pointedly.

Although Mitchel's team had removed almost all the fake news from the Internet, one could still stumble upon coverage of Katie and Mitchel's supposed engagement by unknown entertainment companies that placed little value on the veracity of the news they published.

Truth be told, Katie wasn't afraid that Mitchel would approach Raegan and explain the situation. After all, it wasn't something easy to explain.

Adding to the difficulty was Raegan's low opinion of Mitchel. Mitchel's attempt at an explanation would probably complicate things even more.

Besides, Katie supposed she wasn't entirely dishonest. She was determined to marry Mitchel. Sooner or later, Mitchel would become her husband.

Katie had been orchestrating plans to marry Mitchel for years, not anticipating Raegan's sudden return. She hoped Lauren's tricks would get Raegan out of the picture.

But, to her dismay, Lauren failed.

With no other choice, Katie had to take matters into her own hands.

With a smile, Katie continued, "The news of our engagement has been all over the Internet for three years now. In recent years, the Dixon Group has sought to have a more discreet profile. We have moderated media coverage, but our commitment remains a fact well known to all. Raegan, I don't think you're someone who would pursue a man relentlessly. I'll let this call go. Anyway, I suggest you watch your actions and words in the future and stay away from Mitchel for your own good.”

Katie's tone was condescending. Although he didn't use harsh language, it was clear that he was labeling Raegan in a negative light and trying to demean Raegan.

Raegan, no longer so easily convinced, replied coldly, “Miss Glyn, you just said that you and Mitchel got engaged three years ago. Therefore, she considers herself Mitchel's fiancée since then, correct?

Katie arrogantly replied, "Yes, that's the truth."
