Chapter 379 The Family Emblem Raegan noticed something amiss in Stefan's expression. "Stefan, are you familiar with this pattern?" Stefan stared at Raegan intently, his expression unreadable. "Tell me how you know about this pattern first." Stefan's stern demeanor caught Raegan off guard. After a brief pause, she responded, "The man who harmed me had a tattoo of this pattern on his arm." "The man who harmed you?" Stefan asked in astonishment. "You have recalled the past?" Not wanting to hide it from him, | Raegan nodded.
| | “Then tell me what had happened,"
Stefan said. "If you share the details from back then, maybe I can help you with this." Raegan delved into her memory.
Back then, the car she was in crashed because the driver was blinded by the glare from oncoming vehicles.
Upon reflection, Raegan realized that the glare wasn't from an ordinary headlight. As luck would have it, she was saved from the hurtful light due to her seat in the back row. After the crash, she noted the driver's eyes bleeding, his pupils charred to a crisp.
Clearly, someone had orchestrated this incident by intentionally blinding the driver's eyes.
Later, at the sound of the rescue team approaching, Raegan thought there was still hope.
But then a hand had reached in
through the car window and struck her head hard with a hammer.
The car, which was already hanging precariously on the railing, was shoved and plunged into the river.
Right before losing consciousness, Raegan caught a glimpse of the assailant, who was wearing a mask that only revealed a pair of exotic eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the assailant's arm was a tattoo, with a distinctive mole in the center of it.
As Stefan listened to her account, his face turned serious. He revealed after hesitation, "This is the emblem of the Maxwell family." The Maxwell family was a prominent force in Aurora, its influence and strength similar to those of the Clifford family.
Previously, the Maxwell family had
faced suppression from the Clifford family. The disadvantage of being less affluent as the Clifford family was a factor at play. The Clifford family had hired a formidable army of elite soldiers, rendering them seemingly invincible.
In recent years, the Maxwell family had enlisted external support, seeking to counter the Clifford family and dominate Aurora.
Judging from Raegan's account of her ordeal, it appeared that the Maxwell family were engaged in clandestine hired killings, contributing to their swift ascension.
Raegan had heard about the Maxwell family before from Erick, who described them as a family that had been powerful for decades, though they were just a den of criminals committing various offenses.
Regarding Raegan's leaving plan back then, apart from Hector, Lauren was the only one privy to it.
As for Hector, he was the one who had rescued Raegan from the river and arranged for her subsequent departure from the country.
However, Hector seemed to be deliberately avoiding meeting the Foster family for years. He had no motive to harm Raegan. Plus, he had saved both her and Janey.
That left only Lauren as the possible culprit. Lauren's intent to harm Raegan was palpable. After all, she was the mastermind behind every ordeal Raegan had endured five years ago.
However, even though Lauren had some domestic connections, the Maxwell family was situated in a foreign country. How had Lauren managed to contact them?
Raegan couldn't figure it out. She contemplated confronting Lauren about it.
Noticing Raegan's pensive expression, Stefan frowned and assured, "I'll help you investigate this matter. Don't try to tackle it alone, okay?" The Maxwell family operated like a pack of wolves. If they discovered that they had failed to eliminate Raegan, they might cross oceans to finish the job. It was better to exercise caution.
Stefan added, "If that person is still with the Maxwell family, I can locate him." "Alright, Stefan. Thank you." Raegan nodded.
Observing her compliant demeanor, Stefan reached out to pat her head, but on second thought retracted his hand, deeming it inappropriate.
"Raegan, if you need anything when Erick's not around, don't hesitate to come to me, okay?" Stefan's lips curled 1 into a slight smile. "No néed for formalities." "Okay. Stefan, I don't want anyone else to know about the surface of my memory fragments. I'll tell Erick about it when he returns." Raegan's mind was in a mess right now, with many details that she had yet to sort out. Organizing the events before and after her memory loss would take time.
Stefan nodded. Since the hour was late, he grabbed the lunch box and remarked, "Get some rest. I'll drop by tomorrow." When Stefan left, he instructed Victor to protect Raegan. Now that he knew that Raegan had been targeted by the Maxwell family, he felt an
indescribable sense of unease The next day.
Raegan yawned and got up from the bed.
Just as she took a few steps, she was greeted by a cheerful little voice.
"Mommy!" In an instant, the little one, emanating a sweet fragrance, leaped into Raegan's embrace.
Raegan's heart swelled with warmth as she lifted Janey. "Baby..." Annis entered the ward and saw Raegan holding Janey. "Janey, would you like to come down and play? Let's not make your mommy tired." Hearing this, Janey squirmed to get down.
Sitting down with Janey in her arms, Raegan smiled and reassured her, "It's okay. I can handle it." Sighing, Annis explained, "Janey had a nightmare. She kept crying and insisted you were in danger, so I brought her here in Mr. Clifford's car to calm her down." 4 Raegan gently rubbed Janey's nose and asked, "Janey, do you feel better now?" "Mommy, I missed you." Janey's innocent voice carried a trace of SOITOW.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRaegan's nose tingled. After regaining her memory, she realized Janey was Mitchel's daughter. The words about Kabir being Janey's biological father was a tactic adopted by Erick to keep Mitchel away from Raegan.
No wonder Raegan always had the feeling that Janey bore a resemblance
to Mitchel.
Thanks to Erick's arrangement, everyone around Raegan insisted Janey looked like her, thwarting Mitchel's thoughts of Janey being his own child.
However, the truth could not be hidden from anyone who knew how Mitchel looked as a child.
At this moment, a nurse walked into the room to administer the drip.
After completing another round of saline, Raegan could be discharged.
Annis took Janey to the corridor outside to play, while Stefan kept Raegan company at the bedside.
Now that she had confirmed that her mother was okay, Janey was happily frolicking outside.
Janey accidentally bumped into a man.
Annis immediately stepped forward to
apologize, "Sir, I'm sorry." Seeing only the little puff of hair atop Janey's head, Luis found Janey utterly endearing. He smiled and responded, "It's okay." As Luis started to walk away, he heard Janey's voice mumble, "Sorry..." Luis couldn't help but tousle Janey's soft hair with a gentle smile. "It's alright. I'm perfectly fine." Janey lifted her tiny face and smiled.
"Mommy says I should apologize when I make a mistake..." Gazing at Janey's innocent face, Luis found his mind momentarily blank.
How could this little girl bear such a striking resemblance to the stern- faced Mitchel from childhood?
