The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2841

"What do you mean by 'take responsibility', Mr. Tanner? I thought I made every detail crystal clear to you, and only left the scene after making sure Regina was safe. Now you come at me with this security footage demanding answers. What's this all about?"

Nolan spread his hands wide, a picture of bafflement in the face of Francis' actions, "Did Regina even give you the green light to come to me today?"

"Of course I didn't tell her. She'd have tried to stop me, my little pumpkin that she is. But you must understand, gossip can be a real bullet to a young lady's reputation. That's why I'm here, to have you step up to the plate. My eldest daughter should be a good match for you, don't you think?"

Nolan couldn't help but chuckle at Francis' vagrancy. He leaned back into the couch with an air of superiority as he looked down on the brazen middle-aged man.

"And what makes you think your Tanner girl is good enough for me?" Nolan bit back.

It wasn't that Nolan thought any less of Regina; it was her father's antics that drove him to retort.

Francis' face soured, "Sure, Mr. Harris, you're in a position to look down on us now. The Tanner girl's just a slip-up on camera away from forcing your hand in marriage."
