    She was determined to gain Nn’s favor, stubbornly bypassing the path of privilege her father had


    meticulouslyid out for her. Did Regina truly believe that her sheer will could thaw Nn’s icy heart?


    Unknown to her, the original documents she sought were safely hidden by him; what she found in his


    study would be nothing but a mere photocopy.


    Regina, sneaking into her father’s study, remained blissfully ignorant of this fact. When she finally


    discovered the tiny chip she was looking for, she felt an appreciation for luck and a rush of guilty relief,


    silently apologizing to her father in her mind.


    She knew that the Tanner Group desperately needed the Harris family’s investment, and she silently


    vowed to help her father secure it once she had made amends with Nn. After all, she was a Tanner


    too, and she had reaped the benefits of being part of such an influential family. In times of crisis, she


    wouldn’t turn her back on them.


    But she had principles. She wouldn’t allow her father to resort to such underhanded tactics to threaten


    or entrap Nn. She didn’t want to be part of such a scheme.


    She contacted Nn after getting the thing. She opted for a text message, fearing he wouldn’t want to


    hear her voice. She urged him to meet her.


    Meanwhile, Nn sat at his desk, contemting his mother’s question. Did he truly have no feelings


    for Regina?


    If that were the case, why would he agree to such an absurd marriage arrangement? Francis’ threats


    were inconsequential to Nn. What he cared about was whether Regina was part of it.


    Nn couldn’t believe Regina was that kind of person. From their bickering first encounter to a


    peaceful chat during their second meeting, she had shown herself to be more generous-spirited than


    he had initially thought. Despite all she had endured as a Tanner, she maintained a positive outlook on


    life, a quality Nn found admirable and alluring.


    She was also a journalist, and they had been through so much together. He just wanted to know


    whether her closeness was a calcted move or if their initial contact had been intentional on her part.


    Upon receiving Regina’s message, he hesitated. Meeting her again could mean facing a truth he


    wasn’t ready to ept.


    Francis, having seen Regina sneaking around on the surveince footage, called the family driver after


    she left the study.


    “Yes, it’s true. Miss Regina just took a car and left in a hurry, and she didn’t even ask for a driver.”


    Francis sneered.


    Who else could Regina be in such a rush to meet if not Nn? She was eagerly delivering the


    surveince original to him, neglecting her own father’s interests. He felt like she had be


    ungrateful.


    Resigned, Francis realized some of Regina’s sentiments must be dealt by himself, her father. It was


    time to cut her ties with the past and make her understand that life wasn’t just about pursuing dreams


    while neglecting basic needs.
