Chapter 2749


    The boss’s heart clenched. Could it be that Nn swung by because of that interview that’s been the


    talk of the town?


    He shot a nce at Regina, his suspicions deepening.


    No wonder he recognized Regina. That little troublemaker had gone and stirred the pot again!


    Regina red at Nn with all the intensity. She had told him time and time again that she had her


    own ways of digging up the truth. Why on earth did he have to show up at her newspaper office to stir


    the pot? Was he trying to throw a wrench in her works?


    “Mr. Harris, your concern is noted, but unnecessary. This is an internal matter for New Blossom Press.


    Instead of making house calls, perhaps you should focus on your own affairs, ensuring these mishaps


    aren’t repeated,” she retorted.


    The boss almost choked on his own breath on hearing her. Who did she think she was talking to?


    Did she mistake Nn for a coworker? The man was the CEO of the Harris Group, for heaven’s sake.


    Regina’sck of tact was astounding.


    “Cough, cough, cough-” the boss was clearing his throat.


    “Boss, do you need a lozenge?” Regina asked.


    “If you’re feeling under the weather, make sure to take it easy.” Even Nn chimed in with concern,


    prompting the boss to wave them off.


    “My apologies, Mr. Harris. Our rookie here is green behind the ears, not quite versed in the way we do


    things around here.


    If she’s caused any inconvenience, please ept my apologies and say it upright. I’ll make sure


    Regina gets a talking-to, so she won’t interfere with your business again.”


    Regina bristled with indignation, “What have I done now? Why is everything my fault?”


    She was fuming. If Nn weren’t there, she’d have had it out with the boss, no holds barred.


    She couldn’t figure it out why everyone was against her.


    Whether she worked her tail off or not, she always seemed to get the short end of the stick. What did


    she ever do to deserve this?


    Nn stayed silent, giving the boss’s earlier confidant a sharp nce. The message was clear, and the


    lackey quickly excused himself.


    “Mr. Harris, whatever you need, just say the word. New Blossom Press will strive to meet your


    expectations.” Her boss added.


    Regina and Nn snorted together, while Regina’s disdain for his words were so palpable. The boss’s


    eyebrows knitted together, and he shot her a look that said, ‘Don’t get too cocky. We’ll settle this score


    later.’

    “Ms. Tanner, word on the street is that you’re going rogue on some story about a developer.” Nn


    said.


    The boss quickly jumped to damage control, “Mr. Harris, where did you hear such a tall tale? The


    information isn’t reliable. Our paper hasn’t decided to run with the story. Rest assured, we wouldn’t


    dream of publishing anything about the Harris Group without due process.”


    Nn twirled his watch. He wasn’t so impressed by the boss’s hurried defense.


    “There’s no need to rush to your own defense. The Harris Group can withstand scrutiny. There’s an old


    saying I believe in: ‘To act within one’spetence’. Isn’t that right, Regina?”


    “What are you getting at? You’re saying you don’t trust me? But if you’re so open and aboveboard, why


    come here and warn us off? Could it be that there’s something fishy going on with the tech industry?”


    Regina’s fists clenched tightly as she retorted. She had been set to dismiss Nn from her suspicions,


    but his unexpected visit nted seeds of doubt.


    “Ms. Tanner, let’s not sugarcoat things. You’ve already made up your mind that I’m involved in this


    affair.”
