Chapter 2800


    Regina had always been tough as nails, her resilience forged through years of trials and tribtions. It


    was only in Nn’s presence that her vulnerability peeked through, hinting at a softness seldom seen.


    In recent years, Regina had rocketed forward in personal growth. Her family had little regard for her


    career, and she often found herself in a battle of wits with her stepmother and stepsister. But those


    domestic skirmishes were child’s ypared to the nights she spent staking out suspects in the


    biting cold, waiting for a story to break.


    Once she had cooled down, Regina’s mind raced, trying to pinpoint where the leak might havee


    from. She had been covertly investigating Domingo and only ever discussed it with Nn. How, then,


    did that man know they would be there that day? Was his counter-surveince that advanced?


    When Regina shared her concerns with Nn, he paused before asking her, “Are you sure you haven’t


    mentioned Domingo to anyone else? I did bring him up with my team, but they’re tight-lipped. And


    nobody knew about our ns for today.”

    As Regina pondered Nn’s words, she recalled mentioning Domingo’s name in a ploy to As Regina


    pondered Nn’s words, she test Imogen. “Could it have been her?”


    “Imogen Skinner, Domingo Skinner… They share a surname… Regina, why were you probing her


    about Domingo? Did you find a connection between them?” Nn’s mind raced back to a previously


    dismissed hunch, now seeing it in a new light.


    “I haven’t pieced it all together, but I know Imogen had a dark past she’d rather forget before she


    married into my family-both she and her daughter. She might have had an ex-husband? I’m not certain


    it was Domingo, but Imogen’s reaction to his name was telling. There’s a hidden rtionship there,”


    Regina admitted.


    Nn nodded thoughtfully. “It’s very possible her ex was Domingo. It’s no surprise he’d know about our


    visit then. Imogen could’ve tipped him off if she suspected we were onto him. Maybe we’ve been


    watched since we walked into this ce-lured to the most isted spot to be trapped.”


    Regina felt guilty. “I was only trying to investigate another angle, to uncover their connection. I never


    intended for it to backfire on us. I’m sorry.”


    “No need to apologize. Your questions confirmed our suspicions, right?” Nn reassured her, but


    hesitated before asking, “I’m curious, though. Have Domingo and Imogen been in touch all these


    years? And… does your father know about this?”


    Regina was taken aback, having not considered that angle. “I don’t know if they’ve stayed in contact.


    But Imogen’s past with him wasn’t happy. Otherwise, why would she have been so desperate to marry


    into my family? She and her daughter were in dire straits when they first arrived, suggesting a rough


    home life. If Domingo was as capable then as he is now, why would they have lived in such hardship?”
