Chapter 2729
“Seriously, don’t you trust me? You've got to weigh the pros and cons of this
whole deal. Do you think anyone could line up a marriage to Nolan so smoothly?”
Imogen lounged back with a leg draped over the arm of her chair, oozing
arrogance.
Madeline's heart raced with understanding. To secure her marriage to Nolan, she
needed Imogen to whisper sweet nothings into Francis's ear. But now it was
clear she couldn't keep Imogen in the dark any longer.
“Well, here's the scoop. Last week, I overheard something at the kitchen door.
Apparently, the Harrises owe a huge favor to the Tanners.
When Grandpa Tanner passed, Nolan's granddad made a special trip over. He
promised Dad that he and his descendants could ask for anything they wanted,
no strings attached, from the Harris family.”
Imogen’s jaw dropped. “You sly fox, you've got your ear to the ground! Looks like
you're all
set to be Mrs. Harris. It must be fate!”
With Imogen’s words, Madeline's joy bubbled over.
“Right? So I told you, Mom, there's no need to fret. Just bring it up with Dad. The
Harrises take their promises seriously. Once you mention it to them, Nolan will
have to marry me, whether he likes it or not.”
“If Mr. Harris knew he was getting our angel-faced Madeline, he'd be over the
moon! Who needs that promise, anyway? Don’t worry, darling. I'll make sure this
engagement happens without a hitch, and you'll be betrothed to Mr. Harris in
style.”
Meanwhile, Regina, having heard Imogen’s approaching footsteps, quietly
slipped away. Only when Imogen’s silhouette vanished down the hall did she
silently follow.
If they were so keen on marrying Madeline off to Nolan, then she’d be damned if
she didn’t throw a wrench in their plans.
From that day on, Regina was determined to stand against them, even if it meant
turning the Tanner household upside down. Ever since the day Imogen brought
Madeline into the Tanner family, they had been shortchanging her. She hadn't
picked a fight over every little thing all these years, but now it was time to settle
accounts.
She was going to make Imogen understand that every action had a price.
“Francis, with all those wealthy young men at the party, did anyone catch your
eye?”
Imogen feigned concern for Regina's matrimonial prospects, secretly hoping
she'd marry a nobody.

Francis, massaging his temples, was about to relieve a headache when Imogen’s
familiar hands took over the task.
He patted the back of her hand in comfort. “After all these years, your massage
skills only get better. With you by my side, work isn’t so tedious.”
