Chapter 2837


    “Hey, you sound much better now?”


    In the office, all of Nn’s exhaustion seemed to vanish at the sound of her voice. He leaned back in


    his chair, the tension that had gripped him all day finally easing.


    Despite the fact that it was Regina’s biological father who took her away from him, Nn had been


    wound tight as a drum until he heard her voice.


    It was only now that the heaviness weighing on his heart had truly subsided.


    “Yeah, I’m feeling a lot better now, though still a bit weak. The doctor wants me to stick around the


    hospital for a few more days before heading home,” Regina reported, as casual as if she were catching


    up with an old friend.


    Nn’s eyes snapped open at her words. “Home? Which home are you talking about? You’re not


    nning on shacking up with Imogen and others, are you?” he asked, a hint of concerncing his


    voice.


    Regina could tell by his reaction that her recent troubles probably had something to do with that


    mother-daughter duo.


    “So, my little ident has something to do with Imogen, doesn’t it?” Regina probed, but Nn seemed


    puzzled, “Didn’t your dad fill you in? I told him everything that went down and reminded him to pass it


    on to you.”


    “Ha,” Regina wasn’t surprised, “He’s probably worried that it would stir up a family storm if I knew the


    truth.”


    Although she felt touched by her father’s constant presence and care over the days, the thought that


    he would hide the identity of the person who truly hurt h sake of so-called family harmony chilled her to


    the bone.


    Hearing Regina’s scoff, Nn understood the convoluted things all too well. Fra decisive man in


    business, seemed to lose all rity when it came to family matte


    A few pillow talks often swayed his decisions even when it came to his own daugh


    “If you suspect it has something to do with Imogen, why go back there? What if she something again?


    You might not be so lucky next time.”


    Nn’s brow was tightly furrowed with worry. He genuinely thought Regina shouldn’t return to that


    quagmire..


    But Regina responded with a stern resolve, “I have to go back. I need to woman for who she really is. I


    want my father to see her true colors. She pretends to about me, but what’s the reality? She’s hurt me


    time and again. This time it was me, a only by sheer luck did I escape. I don’t know how much more


    luckiness I have to spen on situations like these….


    Nn, I owe you a big thank you, too. If it weren’t for you, I really don’t know…”


    She sighed, and Nn was at a loss for words. He understood that Regina’s choice might be the right


    one for her. She needed to rely on her own strength and wit to bring Imogen’s true face to light.


    Yet, he instinctively hated the idea of her putting herself in danger. He wanted to help her, but what


    right did he have?

    “Take care of yourself. Nothing is more important than that,” Nn finally sighed, knowing all too well


    how stubborn Regina could be.


    It wouldn’t help no matter how he persuaded; he could only remind her to watch her back. Regina


    chuckled softly in response, “How about I treat you to dinner when I get out, as a thank you?”


    “Well. Do you have any idea how fast I had to move to get to that hotel and rescue you? And why do


    you think you can get away with just a dinner?” Nn quipped.
