Love Unbreakable

Chapter 317 Janey Resembled Mitchel

Raegan gave Mitchel a grateful nod and rushed into the kindergarten to look for Janey.

But before getting inside, Mitchel turned to Matteo and ordered, "Send all those people to jail." Then, he followed Raegan in.

After they went in, the school staff immediately blocked the back gate.

Stefan stayed outside to deal with those crazy netizens.

Inside, the teacher explained to Raegan what had happened. It turned out that an insane netizen fooled by the fake news online had claimed to be a parent and entered the kindergarten. She asked one student who Janey was.

Upon laying eyes on Janey, the insane netizen grabbed Janey's shoulders and scolded her frenziedly.

It was just after school, and many children had just come out of their classrooms. Other children were frightened by this sight, and they all cried hysterically.

After the security guards subdued the insane netizen, the teachers did a headcount. It was only then that they found out that Janey was missing.

At that time, Annis came to pick up Janey. The teacher told Annis the situation.

Annis cried anxiously, not knowing what to do. Annis had been taking care of Janey since the latter's birth. So, in her heart, Janey was like her own daughter. Now that Janey was missing, she was deadly worried.

Raegan grew flustered at the news of Janey's missing. But after listening to the teacher's recount, she guessed Janey likely dashed away amid the chaos and was hiding somewhere in the kindergarten at the moment.

This thought made Raegan feel a little relieved. As long as Janey was inside the kindergarten premises, she was safe.

Raegan comforted Annis with a few words. Then, they went separately to look for Janey.

Raegan had searched the places where Janey was most likely to hide. However, there was no sign of Janey at all.

The sun had already set, and it was getting darker and darker. They still couldn't find Janey yet.

Raegan began to panic again. "Janey! Janey!" Raegan didn't stop calling Janey's name until her voice became hoarse. She collapsed on the lawn helplessly.

Raegan had almost searched everywhere Janey could be hiding behind. Still, she hadn't found Janey yet.

Despite the lights in the kindergarten, it was getting darker. Worse still, Janey was afraid of the dark. Yet, Janey had opted to hide alone somewhere in the dark, indicating her hurt feelings after being grabbed and scolded by the crazy netizen out of nowhere.

Raegan pondered for a while and realized that there was more than met the eye.

To begin with, she was drugged at the dinner party. Then, she was taken to the lounge, almost being raped there. When she was occupied by Cary's case at the police station after having slightly recovered from the effects of the drug, her address and the kindergarten Janey had attended were exposed. Following all these shits, these insane netizens, perhaps employed by the mastermind to make things difficult for her, had opted to crowd the kindergarten and made Janey freaked out.

Raegan assumed those targeted the kindergarten Janey had attended must have found out about the tight security of West Lake Villa.

The more Raegan thought about the whole incident, the more anxious she became. Suddenly, her eyes darkened. No matter who was behind all this, that person was bold enough to target her daughter. Once she found out who that son of a bitch was, she swore to teach that person a lesson. A tough and unforgettable one.

But at this moment, Raegan's priority was to locate Janey. She could only find time to think about other things after she was sure that Janey was safe and sound.

Raegan struggled to stand up from the lawn, feeling exhausted. Since it was already late, the kindergarten was lonely and quiet. She was deadly worried about Janey. With efforts to hold back her tears, she focused on the mission of finding Janey.

Suddenly, countless lights were turned on at the same time, The unexpected brightness made Raegan squint.

In an instant, the entire kindergarten became as bright as day. It turned out that Mitchel had brought in a lot of lighting equipment, lighting up the tens of thousands of square meters of kindergarten. 

The change in the environment seemed to have raised hope in Raegan's heart.

Mitchel walked over to Raegan and handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

Raegan sniffed and said gratefully, "Thank you." At this moment, she put aside all the grudges in her heart and sincerely thanked Mitchel for his kindness.

With so many lights brightening every corner of the kindergarten, Janey would no longer be scared, no matter where she hid.

When Mitchel saw the tears streaming down Raegan's face, he felt distressed. His heart ached. He asked in a low voice, "Does Janey have any special place she likes to hide?"

Mitchel thought that Janey must hide somewhere special where she could stay alone. Otherwise, it was impossible that she did not notice so many people were looking for her.

Raegan was a little surprised. Mitchel was clever, having guessed Janey's special trait.

"When Janey was smaller, she used to keep everything to herself. She seldom talked to anyone. But after the treatment, she got much better," Raegan replied. 

Janey was a smart and kind girl. And she was more sensitive than other children her age.

In front of Raegan and other people who cared about her, Janey was always well-behaved, acting like an innocent girl. Maybe because she didn't want them to worry about her.

But no matter what, Janey was still a child. Sometimes, it was hard for her to hold back her emotions.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Actually, Raegan chose to come back for two reasons. First, she wanted to fulfill her mother's last wish. Second, she hoped that Janey would feel more comfortable in Ardlens and get along with her peers without the language barrier.

Mitchel pondered for a moment. Then, he said, "I have an idea. Maybe this will make Janey come out by herself."

Raegan didn't know what Mitchel was up to. But when she saw him make a phone call with a solemn look, she felt a sense of relief. Her gut feeling told her that she could trust Mitchel. For some reason, she believed that Mitchel must have a way to find Janey.

Soon, someone arrived at the kindergarten and laid out the tools Mitchel asked on the playground,

Countless lanterns were spread all over the ground. Every lantern had words written on it.

"Janey, you are the best child in the world."

"Janey, your mommy is waiting for you at the playground."

"Janey, you are the apple of our eye."

"Janey, let's go to the amusement park together."

When everyone in the playground saw these encouraging words, tears unconsciously streamed down their faces.

The teachers and the school staff helped put up these lanterns everywhere, further lighting the kindergarten.

As all these lanterns were hung around, the heart-warming words on the lanterns made a touching scene, illuminating and warming everyone's heart.

Raegan looked around. Those small spots of light shone in her eyes. Suddenly, she burst into tears again.

Mitchel half squatted by Raegan's side and put one hand to support her back. He fixed his eyes on her, totally ignoring the lanterns.

It was noisy around them, but Mitchel felt that the world suddenly became quiet. It was as if there were only the two of them in the world. For Mitchel, this moment was extremely precious.

At this time, a staggering voice sounded not far away. "Mommy..."

Raegan turned around and saw Janey running toward her. Janey's clothes were filled with dirt.

Raegan immediately rushed over and held Janey in her arms. "Janey... Finally, we found you!"

Raegan hugged Janey in her arms even tighter. "Janey..."

Raegan could no longer hold back her tears. They streamed down her face uncontrollably. "Janey, you scared me to death."

Janey's little face was also filled with dirt. Her eyelashes flickered as she started to cry. She looked guilty as she said between sobs, "Mommy, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have hidden..."

When Raegan heard this, her heart ached. She bit her lower lip to suppress her sobs. Then, she hugged Janey more tightly. Janey was only four years old. But she was such a sweet and sensible child. She knew when to feel guilty and apologize. It was as if she could already understand everything.

Raegan reached out and wiped Janey's tears. Then, she asked seriously, "Tell me, what did the bad person say to you?"

Raegan knew Janey wouldn't forget this traumatic experience today unless they figured out what Janey had heard from that crazy netizen and addressed it properly.

Janey pursed her lips. It seemed she was thinking about something. Then, she lowered her head and said nothing. She didn't want to recount those harsh words.

Upon seeing this, Raegan held Janey's hands and coaxed, "Janey, you have to let me know what you've heard from that bad person. Then, I will tell you whether it's true or not."

Janey raised her head and looked at Raegan. And when she felt Raegan's warm gaze, her eyes turned red and tears welled up again. She curled her lips and recounted, "That person said you are a bad woman and a home wrecker, and you make a living by seducing other women's husbands. That's why you can afford to send me to such an expensive kindergarten..."

"Janey, do you believe those words?"

Janey shook her head vigorously. "No. My name is Janey Foster. My grandpa has a lot of money. Since you are his daughter, you also have a lot of money. I am your baby, so I'm rich, too."

This was exactly what Annis had told Janey. What Annis said was not entirely right. But Raegan knew Annis said so out of kindness, wanting Janey not to feel inferior to other children.

"That's right, my darling. I never steal or rob from anyone. Actually, I don't depend on your grandpa. I work hard to earn money to pay for your tuition fee. No matter what others say, 1 am nothing like that. Do you believe me?"

Janey nodded.

"So, why did you hide?"

Janey pursed her lips again. "That bad person also said that I am a bastard because my daddy doesn't want me and that I am a piece of rubbish, and no one wants me..."

This time, Janey could no longer continue pretending to be strong. She leaned her little head on Raegan's shoulder and burst into tears. She broke down.

"Janey, don't believe her nonsense, okay? That bad person just wants to make you cry."

Janey sobbed. Her tears began to wet Raegan's shoulder. Suddenly, Raegan felt like her heart was stabbed by a knife. She could hardly breathe.

"It's not true. You have a daddy. Don't you remember him? His name is Kabir. He loves you deeply. And right now, he is looking at you from heaven," Raegan explained in a trembling voice, holding Janey's chubby hand.

Raegan knew that not having a father had always been a thorn in Janey's heart. But she didn't expect that the thorn kept piercing deeper, and this matter had already hurt Janey this much.

Suddenly, a slap sound was heard. It turned out Janey slapped Raegan's hand away and snapped, "Mommy, you are lying!"

Janey's face was now covered with tears. "You always say that Kabir is my father. But I have never dreamed of him. If he is really my father, why doesn't he ever appear in my dreams?"

Raegan was at a loss, not knowing how to answer Janey's question.

Janey became more emotional. Suddenly, she wriggled herself out of Raegan's embrace and ran away.

"Janey!" Raegan wanted to chase after Janey. However, Mitchel stopped her. He looked at her and said, "Let me try."

After saying this, Mitchel strode over and caught Janey. He held her in his arms.

At first, Janey struggled hard. However, when Mitchel whispered something in her ear, she suddenly became obedient.

Mitchel walked a little bit far and put Janey down. He knelt on the ground and looked at Janey's face. "Janey, may I have a word with you?"

Janey turned her head away in anger and snarled, "No! I don't want to listen to you. I hate you!"

"Then, tell me. Why do you hate me?"

Janey stole a glance at Mitchel and mumbled, "Because you were not happy when I called you Daddy the other day."

Janey always remembered that Raegan told her not to call other men Daddy because it would cause them trouble. That was why she ignored Mitchel the whole time. She was still mad at him.

Mitchel said honestly, "If I don't know you, I will feel troubled when you call me that way..."

Before Mitchel could finish his words, Janey burst into tears again. This time, she looked aggrieved. It turned out that what Raegan said was true.

"You really don't like me calling you Daddy. I'm sorry... Please don't hate me. I only want a daddy," Janey said between sobs.

Janey's tears made Mitchel feel sorry for her. He hurriedly took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped off her tears.

"Janey, why don't you let me finish talking first?" Mitchel asked patiently. "But if the child is you, I won't feel troubled at all.

Instead, I will be very happy. Because when I met you at the airport, I already thought you were the cutest girl I've ever seen."

Janey looked at Mitchel and blinked a few times. "Really?" She couldn't believe it. It turned out Mitchel was not mad when she called him Daddy. On the contrary, he was delighted.

"Of course. I'm telling you the truth." Mitchel reached out and pinched Janey's chubby face dotingly. "You can call me whatever you want."

"Wow! I finally have a daddy!" Janey jumped and clapped her hands happily.

But the next second, she looked sad again. "But my mommy doesn't allow me to call other men Daddy."

But soon, she also came up with an idea. "How about I call you Daddy Mitchel?"

"That sounds something special. I like it. Janey, how can you be so smart?" Mitchel rubbed Janey's head and said, "Don't you think you should apologize to your mommy? You slapped her hand just now. She seemed heartbroken."

"Mommy is sad?" Janey asked in surprise. When she remembered how kind Raegan had been to her, she felt guilty. She patted her head and pouted angrily. "I am such a bad girl."

"No, that's not true. You are a good girl." Mitchel held Janey's hand and gently said, "Even grown-ups lose their temper sometimes. It's okay. But you have to distinguish who loves you and who you care about. I believe your mommy will forgive you."

Then, they walked toward Raegan together.

In the darkness of night, Mitchel's figure looked tall and  straight. Beside him, Janey looked so small. Her height didn't even reach his knees.

Looking at them from a distance, Raegan suddenly felt like she was bewitched. Why did she feel like Janey looked a lot like Mitchel?
