Chapter 2901


    As she grew older, she wisely chose another room, making her visits to that particr room less


    frequent.


    But on significant days, she’d still spend a few hours there. It was her sacred space to be alone with


    her mom’s memory, where no one else was allowed to disturb.


    When Francis brought up that room, it was his way to use her mother’s memory to remind her to visit


    home more often and remember her roots as a member of the Tanner family.


    But hearing this from Madeline was a different story. She seemed to forget her ce in the family,


    acting as if she had a say in these matters.


    “Don’t worry, Dad. Just because I’m married doesn’t mean I won’te back. I’m here now, aren’t I,


    having dinner with you? But now that I am married, I think it’s important to set some boundaries. We


    can’t let certain people think things are the same as when I was single.


    I think I’ll juste back alone for dinner unless it’s a special asion. Nn has his own family to


    spend time with; it wouldn’t be fair to expect him toe with me every time.”


    If Nn had it his way, he’d apany Regina back every time; but since she voiced her preference,


    there must be a reason.


    “This is uneptable!” Madeline blurted out in panic, fearing she’d lose any chance to be close to


    Nn if Regina starteding back alone.


    Everyone turned their eyes towards her, while Nn kept his head down, focusing on the mountain of


    food Regina had piled onto his te as if she thought him a bottomless pit or wanted to spare him from

    “How is this not eptable?” Francis looked sternly at Madeline, well aware of the selfish motives she


    harbored.


    Regina married Nn already; it was only wise to resign those ideas.


    Instead of obsessing over Nn, he thought, she should consider what benefits the Tanner family


    could still draw from the Harris family, grabbing whatever advantage they could.


    “Uh, I mean…” Madeline stumbled to exin.


    Imogen cut her off sharply, “Why are you even speaking, child? Just finish your soup and stay out of


    adult conversations.”


    Then, turning to Francis with a smile, she said, “You’ve spoiled her. Now, she finds it’s okay to talk


    nonsense in these important asions She’s just a child; what does she know?”


    Francis scoffed internally but maintained a gracious facade, “How is she still a child? She’s only slightly


    younger than Regina.


    Now that Regina’s married, it will soon be your daughter’s turn. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to find


    someone you approve of.”


    Imogen looked at him with feigned surprise, her eyes soft, “Then I’ll have to rely on your judgment.”


    Changing the subject, Francis turned to Nn, “Do you have any friends around Madeline’s age?


    Someone suitable for her?” He believed that Nn, being asmendable as he is, surely had friends


    of equal caliber. It could tighten the two families’ bonds even further, making any thought of separation


    impossible.


    Regina’s expression darkened at her father’s words. Wasn’t it enough that the Tanner family benefited


    from their connection to the Harris family? Now he aimed to extend that influence to Nn’s friends!


    “Let’s just enjoy dinner without delving into such topics today.” she said, trying to steer the conversation


    back to a peaceful family meal.
