Chapter 2839 Reginaâs eyes bulged in disbelief as she reiterated that this meal was definitely on her, but Nolan only felt more disgusted.
âAre you playing some kind of good cop, bad cop with your dad? What's this innocent act for, huh? How could he have the guts to make that kind of proposal without your acquiescence?
| really didnât want to show up today, but after hearing about the nasty stunt your folks pulled, | just had to come and get the story straight from you. Or maybe you've been playing me from the start with some ulterior motives?â
Reginaâs smile completely vanished, and she felt pinned to the spot as if she were in the stocks in the town square, humiliated for all to see.
She couldn't fathom what Nolan was getting at, but she understood it had something to do with her family-and her only real family was her dad.
âDid my family do something thatâs upset you? donât know what theyâve done, but if thatâs the case, can | just apologize now?
Can we talk about this without the accusations?â
Nolan leaned in, his voice laced with frustration, âWho do you think you are to talk to me like this?
Did you ever consider the damage your fatherâs words could do to my family?â
Regina had never seen this side of Nolan, and her apologies stumbled out in a fluster.
âI'm sorry, | honestly donât know what's going on. Iâm really sorry...â she murmured.
Sitting across from Nolan, Regina was a mix of defensiveness and panic. She had no clue what had caused this sudden nosedive in his demeanor; he wasnât the type to lash out without reason.
This made Regina even more certain that her father must have done something unforgivable behind her back.
She took a deep breath, trying to regain her composure, â| may not know what happened, but | still want to apologize on behalf of my family. If you could, would you tell me what exactly went down? You know Iâve been in the hospital lately, and Iâm not always aware of whatâs happening outside...â
