Chapter 2841


    “What do you mean by ‘take responsibility’, Mr. Tanner? I thought I made every detail crystal clear to


    you, and only left the scene after making sure Regina was safe. Now youe at me with this security


    footage demanding answers. What’s this all about?”


    Nn spread his hands wide, a picture of bafflement in the face of Francis’ actions, “Did Regina even


    give you the green light toe to me today?”


    “Of course I didn’t tell her. She’d have tried to stop me, my little pumpkin that she is. But you must


    understand, gossip can be a real bullet to a youngdy’s reputation. That’s why I’m here, to have you


    step up to the te. My eldest daughter should be a good match for you, don’t you think?”


    Nn couldn’t help but chuckle at Francis’ vagrancy. He leaned back into the couch with an air of


    superiority as he looked down on the brazen middle-aged man.


    “And what makes you think your Tanner girl is good enough for me?” Nn bit back.


    It wasn’t that Nn thought any less of Regina; it was her father’s antics that drove him to retort.


    Francis’ face soured, “Sure, Mr. Harris, you’re in a position to look down on us now. The Tanner girl’s


    just a slip-up on camera away from forcing your hand in marriage.”


    “So Mr. Tanner, you’re trying to coerce me into marrying your daughter?” Nn tapped his long fingers


    against the armrest, looking thoroughly unimpressed with Francis’ proposal.


    “That’s right. I want you to tie the knot with our Regina. It’d be a power couple in the making. Besides,


    it’s not like you and Regina don’t have a spark between you. Why else would you dash from your office


    to the hotel to save her? And you young people have so much inmon, so you can build your


    emotional foundation after the wedding. I’m not asking for the moon.”Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    Nn actuallyughed out loud, “You’ve got some nerve by making demands like that. Looks like the


    Tanner Group’s stocks are taking a dive, and it’s got you in a sweat.”


    Now that Nn had switched to a formal address, Francis definitely caught the change but was


    determined to get his way today.


    “This has nothing to do with mypany’s stocks. I just want you to man up and do the right thing. And


    if that video gets out, it won’t just be our stocks that take a hit. People care about trust and morality


    these days. If the CEO of Harris Group is caught in a scandal and won’t take responsibility, I’m sure the


    shareholders will be very disappointed.”


    Francis was tantly threatening him, but Nn was not the kind to be bullied.


    “Go ahead, release the video online. I’m actually curious to see if Mr. Tanner still has an ounce of love


    for his daughter. No decent father would want to exploit his own child for attention. And with your new


    wife and kid from another rtionship, the public will see exactly what kind of father you are once the


    news breaks.”


    Nn was right; Francis was just bluffing.
