Chapter 283 Find A Stepfather For Janey

In the lounge, Raegan rushed to Janey. She hugged the little girl and said anxiously, "Janey, where did you go? I've been looking for you."

"I just went to look for..." Janey suddenly stopped and covered her mouth upon realizing something. She couldn't say she went to look for her father because it would make her mommy sad.

Tears welled up in Janey's big, round eyes as she admitted her mistake, "Mommy, I'm sorry. I'm wrong. I promise not to run around again."

Raegan had calmed down by now. She kissed Janey's pinkish little cheek and said, "Let's go. Annis must have prepared yummy food for you at home."

Erick picked Janey up and let her sit on the suitcase before he pushed it forward. Raegan followed behind them.

Although they wore masks, their attractiveness was evident. They still caught the attention of many people at the airport.

Someone even secretly took photos of the three of them, compiled the photos into a short video and quickly uploaded it online with the caption, "What a lovely family!" In just a few minutes, the video went viral.

Soon, some netizens dug up and revealed Erick's identity.

"Wow! I know this man. His name is Erick Foster, the youngest biology professor at Astraea University. I attended one of his lectures. His classes are always full. In fact, many people are waiting in line to take seats in his lectures.

"But I heard he resigned from Astraea University. He returned to our country as a guest lecturer at the prestigious Elysium University."

"Is he married? Although the woman beside him wears a mask, she looks elegant. She must be a beauty. And the little girl is really cute."

"I'm not sure about that. I know nothing about his private life." "Wow! Such a beautiful family of three! They have a great combination of looks and style. They are even more good-looking than those celebrities."

After an hour, Erick discovered their viral video. He immediately arranged for someone to remove all the trending topics about them.

Everyone only knew that Erick was a young professor with exceptional looks. They had not discovered yet that the Fosters were a wealthy family involved in the international airline business. Furthermore, the Foster family found their long-lost daughter five years ago. But since this family had always kept a low profile, the identity of their daughter was never exposed. Until now, even her face remained a mystery. No one had seen her yet.

It was already late at night.

But the CEO's office in the Dixon Group was still brightly lit.

Matteo received several photos on his phone. They were screenshots from the viral video that was taken down in the afternoon.

But they were only photos of the woman in the video. It captured different angles when she lowered her gaze, turned her head, and her side profile. But there was no frontal view.

He replied to the sender, "Verify it." O

Years ago, Mitchel fell ill because of the unsuccessful search for Raegan. He was hospitalized for the whole six months.

During these six months, the Dixon family had undergone significant changes.

Kyler passed away due to illness. Then, Alexis took advantage of the chaos to seize power. He obtained sixteen percent more votes than Mitchel.

After Alexis successfully took the position, he openly laid off numerous senior-level employees and replaced them with his loyalists. Later, he openly brought his mistress to various events, directly slapping Luciana in the face.

Luciana was so furious that she fell ill. One midnight, she vomited blood and was rushed to the emergency room. It was only then that Mitchel started to regain his strength and return his focus on the company.

Mitchel started to work diligently, day and night. Fortunately, The had the strong support and cooperation of the Glyn family. He finally turned the tide and equalized the situation.

These past few years, Mitchel didn't mention Raegan even once. But Matteo knew he never stopped looking for her.

Mitchel never listened to what other people said. He firmly believed that Raegan was still alive.

Matteo looked at the photos on his phone again. He felt that the woman resembled Raegan. However, he was not happy at all because over the years, he had received too much disappointing news.

Matteo turned off his phone. He thought it would be better not to say anything to Mitchel. He assumed it would only be another letdown this time.

The next day.

Raegan and Janey were in West Lake Villa. They quickly adapted to this place.

Annis was Janey's nanny, and she had been taking care of Janey for years. She had arrived a week earlier to prepare the villa. She made sure that the decorations were similar to their house abroad for Janey to easily adapt to the new environment.

Erick lived in the villa next to theirs.

In the evening, Erick picked Raegan up!

While driving, Erick looked at Raegan and said coldly, "Raegan, observe that man from the Cullen family and see if he is suitable for you. If you are not satisfied with him, I will talk to our dad."

Erick felt frustrated. His top priority for returning to the country this time was to safeguard and support Raegan's studio and replace a reliable man suitable for her.

Their father had set up a blind date between Raegan and the youngest son of the Cullen family, Darryl Cullen. Years ago, the two families joked that they would become in-laws when their children grew up. It was just that the plan seemed to have been forgotten after Raegan went missing. Now that Raegan was found back, here came the blind date tonight.

Erick knew part of the joke was because of the strict principles and parenting in the Cullen family. Men in the Cullen family would only choose one woman to marry in their lifetime, stressing loyalty. Once a man from the Cullen family married, he never divorced or remarried until he met his end. He would only love and cherish the woman he had married and lead a wonderful married life together.

This tradition had been followed by every man in the Cullen family for generations. Almost all the men in the Cullen family were known to be decent and doting husbands. But Darryl? His reputation in the circle was far from good.

Raegan nodded and looked at Erick's side face. Today, he wore a black suit, and he exuded a cold and sexy aura. She couldn't help commenting, "You don't look like you're accompanying me on a blind date."

Erick glanced at her sideways. "Why?"

"You look more like someone going to a fight," Raegan replied with a smile.

Erick's eyes narrowed. "I may get into a fight."

Raegan was stunned upon hearing this. She didn't expect her brother to be prepared for a fight. It seemed that Darryl didn't meet his expectations.

As they approached the restaurant, Erick received a phone call. It was about work, and it was urgent.

Raegan overheard his conversation, so she said, "You go deal with it. I can go home by myself after this dinner."

Erick said worriedly, "I think it's better if I stay with you first." But Raegan refused, "Stop treating me like I'm a little girl like Janey, okay? Go ahead and do your thing. I can manage."

Erick checked the time on his watch. Then, he said, "Okay, I'll do it quickly. I'll pick you up at eight."

Raegan nodded and got out of the car. Erick didn't drive away until she entered the restaurant.

Darryl and Mitchel were in a chamber in the restaurant.

A woman in a waitress's uniform knocked on the door and walked in with wine in her hands.

Darryl, who had exceptional facial features and captivating eyes, looked at Mitchel sulkily and said, "Mitchel, you have to stand by me this time. Look at what my father did. He arranged a blind date with a widow for me. She even has a child. How can a handsome and suave man like me end up marrying a widow and becoming someone's stepfather? Those bunch of idiots will only laugh at me."

Darryl was referring to those wealthy young men he usually hung out with. They were all spoiled brats and playboys. All they knew in life was to have fun and play with women.

Mitchel's eyebrows furrowed slightly. If it weren't for Darryl's father's request, he would never get involved in this matter. However, Darryl only listened to him.

At this moment, the woman approached Darryl and poured him a glass of wine. Her delicate hands were obviously well-maintained, an indication that she was privileged.

Mitchel suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her. From his seat, he could only see the woman's round earlobes. He felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity while looking at them.

Darryl went on, "But I heard that the daughter of the Foster family is stunning. If she's from an ordinary family, I can just play with her. Women are all the same. They are cheap..."

Darryl's voice trailed off. It turned out that the woman in a waitress's uniform suddenly poured the wine directly on Darryl's head, drenching him from head to toe.

 "Damn!" Darryl gasped and cursed.

"It seems you're the black sheep in the Cullen family." Raegan put the wine on the table and stared at Darryl with wide eyes. "Since you feel that way, there's no need for me to be here anymore. I will let my brother explain it to your father."

Raegan had dressed in a waitress's uniform to see if Darryl was a decent man before they went on a blind date. After all, she was looking for a stepfather for Janey. She had to be cautious in choosing a spouse. Raegan didn't expect Darryl to disrespect women like this.

Raegan untied her apron, threw it on the table, and left the chamber.

"Wait!" Darryl shouted furiously. He stood up with a frown and grabbed Raegan's hand. He had never been treated like this before, so he couldn't let go of her just like that. "How dare you! Who the hell do you think you are?"

As he spoke, he ripped off Raegan's mask. Her delicate face was revealed.

Mitchel's face instantly darkened upon seeing this. He fixed his gaze on Raegan's face, and his eyes turned red.
