Katie’s intense stare unsettled those around her, her words sent shivers through the room.
Raegan stepped up, her voice cold.
“Katie, three and a half months pregnant, huh? Let’s suppose the child you’re carrying is Mitchel’s.
Back when you got pregnant, I was still Mitchel’s wife and you knew that.
So, why still chose to be the home wrecker?”
Katie felt a brief twinge of guilt.
She had avoided this confrontation precisely because of this damning reality.
The child was conceived when Raegan was still Mitchel’s wife.
But she had no alternatives.
Raegan shot Katie a fierce re, stating, “And my child isn’t illegitimate.
She wasn’t born out of the wedlock.
”
Though Janey’s father’s identity remained undisclosed, Raegan stood firm against any insinuation that Janey was illegitimate.
Before Katie could respond, Mitchel signaled to Marcelo with an icymand, “Take her back.
”
Marcelo turned to Katie, courteously urging, “Miss Glyn, if you please.
”
Katie took a step back, adamantly refusing, “No!” If she were to return home now, she’d face mockery.
The thought of going back was unbearable!
“Luciana…” Katie clung to Luciana, her body shaking.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

Luciana offeredfort, patting her back, “Don’t worry, dear.
I’m here.
No one will touch you while I’m around!”
“Mom!” Mitchel interjected sharply.
He was baffled by Luciana’s protective stance toward Katie.
He had already swapped the medication in secret, so why was Luciana still defending Katie?
“ALL of you, leave!” Luciana suddenly shouted.
“Leave! Whoever bullies Katie, leave my sight!”
Mitchel red at Luciana, sighing.
Then, he took Raegan’s hand and left without saying a word.
The instant Katie sensed their absence, she stopped shaking and calmed down immediately.
She hugged Luciana.
“Thank you,” she said.
Luciana’s expression was somewhat dull.
“For what? We’re like a family,” she answered in a monotone.
“Of course,” Katie said,ughing softly.
“But with everything that’s happened, it’s almost time for your medication.
I’ll get it for you.
”
After Katie left, Luciana stared at the ceiling, thinking hard about what happened this morning.
The dizziness hade from the water Katie gave her.
Her fall was caused by the handrail suddenlying loose.
But why did ite loose?
Luciana knew all too well that strange things only happened whenever Katie was around, suggesting Katie was the behind all those “idents.
”
However, Luciana grasped Katie’s leaving this household would spell more disasters for Mitchel and Raegan.
That was why Luciana had adamantly kept Katie close.
Besides, she felt the urge not to rouse Katie’s suspicion.
As Katie’s silhouette emerged in the doorway, Luciana’s countenance illuminated with a smile.
“Do not exert yourself,” she said gently.
“It’s alright,” Katie replied, handing Luciana a ss of water and a pill.
She watched Luciana take them.
“Try to get some sleep,” Katie suggested.
Yet, Luciana had sumbed to slumber before Katie could say anymore.
In the CEO’s office of the Dixon Group, Mitchel sat in his chair, deep in thought.
The room was silent until he spoke with a calm authority.
“Find all my external engagements from January to May.
Investigate Katie’s movements during the same window.
Look for any strange oveps.
