The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2832

Francis couldn't help but revealed her the truth. “If it weren't for Nolan swooping in just in time, you might’ve been in a real bad spot. I don’t know who’s behind this, but you’ve been way too careless.”

Regina was speechless, blindsided by the low blow someone had dealt her. No wonder she had felt all woozy climbing the stairs to that room, her brain felt like a lump of wet concrete, unable to function properly. She managed to ask, dry-mouthed, “So it wasn’t all in my head? Nolan really was here? Where is he now?”

For some reason, she felt that Nolan would have the full scoop on what had happened.

Sighing inwardly, Regina knew her dad’s perspective would always have a tint of bias, what with his new family and all.

“What’s the point in chasing after him? He said you were just friends, nothing more. There were only the two of you in that room; did he try to harass you?” Francis’ words were laced with irritation, which made Regina furrow her brow and cut him off. “Please don’t talk about him like that. How could he be that kind of person? You said it yourself - I might not even be here talking to you, sound and healthy, without his help. Dad, how could you say so about the man who saved me? Please, I just want to clear some things up with him, and here you are speaking so foully.”

Seeing his darling daughter defend Nolan right after waking up riled up Francis even more.

“Do you trust a stranger over your own father?”

Regina’s frown deepened as she still felt a bit unwell. “That’s not what I mean, Dad. Please tell me who was there. I need to get to the bottom of this myself.”
