Chapter 2730
“They'll only find peace once they're engaged,” mused Imogen as she sipped her
coffee. “And they can truly support each other's ambitions, don’t you agree?”
Francis nodded. “I know you care about Regina, and you've been so devoted all
these years. I do have someone in mind for her, a young man named Nolan
Harris. He's nothing like those spoiled rich kids, but just because I approve of him
doesn’t mean he'll take a shine to the Tanner family. It's a tough situation.”
Regina, overhearing her father’s words, felt a pang of discomfort.
And Imogen couldn't believe her ears. Francis had set his sights on Nolan before
she could even make a move. Her body tensed up, and she accidentally pressed
a bit too hard on Francis’s shoulders. “What's gotten into you?" he winced.
“Sorry, sorry. I was just lost in thought about Nolan's good looks and got carried
away,” Imogen apologized, massaging the spot she had poked.
“I've seen Nolan around, and he seems alright. But I can't shake the feeling that
he’s not quite the right fit for Regina,” she said, searching for nonchalance in her
voice.
“Oh? Have you seen them together?” Francis asked casually. To him, Nolan was
the prime candidate for Regina's hand, but he worried about the heat of one-
sided affection.
“I saw them exchange a few words from a distance once; they didn't seem cozy.
Nolan's made quite a name for himself at such a young age, and Regina, with
her fiery spirit, moved out the moment she got back from abroad. She took up
that roving reporter gig, living on her own terms. They're both headstrong. Pair
them up, and sparks are bound to fly.”
“So you think they're not a match?”
Francis mulled it over with his eyes closed. He knew his daughter was stubborn
and strong-willed. Nolan seemed the same. If they didn't see eye to eye on
marriage, it would be a real headache.
“Well, it's a concern. But Nolan's family background speaks for itself. There must
be a line of suitors for him. If we could ally with the Harris family through
marriage...”
His eyes snapped open at the thought. “If we could secure that connection, it
would be a boon for the Tanners. We just have to see if he takes to Regina.”
Regina felt a wave of sadness. In the end, she was just another item on the
marriage market, her future discussed without her presence. Was this the
inescapable fate of being born into such a family?
“It's a shame, but maybe you're right; Nolan isn't suited for Regina.”
As Imogen continued her massage, her movements slowed, contemplating how
