"Ugh... Just then—" Regina began, only to be cut off by Nolan.
"Sorry, Ms. Tanner. I hope you can forget everything I said earlier. You saw how Dahlia was. Her emotions are a roller coaster, and I got caught up in the moment. If I've offended you, that wasn't my intention, and I sincerely apologize."
Regina felt as if she had been doused with icy water. Her warmth evaporated instantly.
"Oh... I wasn't really thinking much of it. But Mr. Harris, could you clarify what your conversation with Dahlia had to do with me? If you don't want any misunderstandings, it's probably best not to bring me up. It's just troubling, you know?"
Even with her smile, Nolan could sense Regina's irritation.
"I'm sorry." He couldn't very well say it was because Dahlia thought he was in love with Regina.
"Oh."
Nolan was unfazed by Regina's challenge. His only concern was to keep her out of the mix. She was a rookie reporter, new to this game, and didn't understand the stakes like he did. If Domingo could evade scrutiny in the tech industry and sell them a bill of goods, it spoke volumes about their reach.
How could he involve Regina when he himself had to tread so cautiously?
"But you're underestimating me. I've been on this for quite some times, so I'm not completely clueless. Still, as a journalist, isn't it my duty to seek out the truth? Am I supposed to hide behind others when things get tough?" Regina was determined. She stepped closer, her eyes earnest. "I didn't pick this story for my resume. I want to give justice to Ablett and others like him. I believe there are more families out there devastated by Domingo. I want justice for them. That's my motivation as a journalist. I'm asking for your support, Nolan. Don't worry, I won't slow you down, and I won't be reckless. I'm serious about this. So, I'll ask you once more, can I investigate this with you?"
