Chapter 2808
The others rushed forward to help him up, âMr.Skinner, are you alright?â
Although there had been a moment of hesitation about betraying Domingo, they had been with
him for so many years. Seeing him fall like this, they couldn't help but worry.
As Regina and Nolan stepped out of the front door, the rest of the staff were stunned. Hadn't
Domingo said that these two were trapped?
How come they were striding out so boldly? What on earth had happened?
Being trapped in that dim environment inside, Regina couldn't quite understand why anyone would
enjoy such gloom and even pay for the experience.
When she stepped into the sunlight, she couldn't help but sigh with relief, âIt's so good to feel the
sun.â
"Yeah, we've been so caught up in the concrete jungle, we almost forgot to appreciate the world
outside,â Nolan agreed. It wasn't until they got into the car that they felt they were truly out of
danger.
However, as Nolan drove towards Regina's place, she suddenly spoke up, âYou shouldn't have done
that today.â
"What do you mean?â
âYou should have left me and gotten away.â
Nolan had already explained that no matter what, he could not have left Regina behind.
Now, safely away, Regina was still bringing it up, and Nolan was getting irritated, âI told you before,
even if I had left, you wouldn't have been safe. Did you really think by sacrificing yourself you'd be
saving me? Come on, I'm a man; I don't need you to protect me.â
She could hear the frustration in his voice. Regina bit her lower lip, feeling distressed, âI just didnât
want you to get dragged into my problems, that's all, I...â
Perhaps Nolan couldn't bear to hear any more. He sharply turned the steering wheel and pulled
over into a safe area. âGet out of the car I think we both need some time to cool off."
And so Regina watched as Nolan's car sped away.
She couldn't understand herself; Nolan's every word and action seemed to affect her mood.
Before she could even sort out her feelings, she had angered Nolan.
Just as she felt downhearted, Regina's phone buzzed with a news alert. The headline was

bold with the word âExposed!â She swiped open the notification, and what confronted her was a
blurry photo of Nolan and Dahlia
Though the picture wasn't clear, having seen Nolan day after day, Regina recognized him instantly.
He was standing protectively next to Dahlia, glancing vaguely towards the camera lens. Regina
clenched her phone tightly, realizing why he had been so impatient with her; he already had
someone else in his heart.
[Exposed! The secret boyfriend of the popular dancer is him!]
Regina let out a bitter laugh, clearly understanding now that she'd developed feelings for Nolan
that she shouldn't have.
If Nolan was dating Dahlia, why hadn't he told her? It would've helped her to move on. She felt a
surge of resentment towards Nolan.
Even though she knew it wasn't his fault, it still hurt.
Meanwhile, the whole tech industry was on high alert. Their CEO had never had his face exposed in
the media, and he had always been very careful about his privacy. Yet, now there was a clear photo
of him with Dahlia, even if it was blurry, one could make out his features.
Lucy dialed Nolan's number immediately.

Nolan's voice sounded impatient, and Lucy's heart skipped a beat. Had her bos found out?
âMr. Harris, should we take down that news piece that's circulating online?â
âWhat news!â Nolan barked, his tone betraying his surprise and annoyance.
