    ut Nn knew she wouldn’t just fall in line. “Let me remind you one more time, Ms. anner, don’t you try


    snooping around that developer. If anything untoward happens, no ne will be able to save your skin.”


    n’s voice was stern,pelling Regina to hod obediently.


    Alright, you’ve made your point, and I’m not one to court danger. I’ve asked all I wanted, nd you’ve


    given your answers. So, let’s leave it at that.” Regina was quick on her feet, tuffing her papers into her


    bag and marching out.


    ln remained seated, chuckling to himself. It had been a long time since anyone had


    ared to leave before him.


    Only Regina had the guts to pull that off. Just before she exited, she turned around with a

    Vn was puzzled.


    ‘You might not realize it, Mr. Harris, but when you’re feeling guilty, you always fiddle with your fingertips.


    d to have made that little discovery. Ta-ta!”


    Without a backward nce, Regina departed, leaving Nn alone to ponder the meaning behind her


    last remark.


    Regina strolled out of the café, feeling invigorated despite Nn’s less-than-pleasant responses. She

    Burying her face in the steering wheel, she couldn’t suppress her smile. She hadn’t been keen on


    marrying quickly, but the prospect didn’t seem too bad if it was with someone she genuinely liked and


    liked her back.


    With a smile, Regina drove away.


    Nn hadn’t expected Regina to notice such a trivial habit of his, nor was he aware of when he had

    He was still smiling when Dahlia’s call came through.


    ‘Hello?”


    Dahlia’s voice was as sweet as ever, a stark contrast to her public persona.


    And Nn’s tone softened, “What’s up? Calling me out of the blue.”


    ‘Can’t I just call you? There’s this new movie out starring my favorite actor. Come with me, won’t you?”

    snapped by the paparazzi if we go out?”


    Dahlia pouted. “Fame? What fame? That interview hasn’t even been published yet. I could walk down


    Main Street, and nobody would bat an eyelid. So, are you in or not?”


    Imagining Dahlia with her lips pursed, Nn finally nodded in agreement, “Alright, I’ll apany you.


    But if we end up on some gossipy front page with unttering shots, don’te crying to me.”
