Chapter 2687 

Talon sighed, the exasperation and fondness mingling in his voice, 

“You know, Regina, you can be such a hardhead sometimes, always thinking you’ll be a burden to us. But when the chips are down, aren’t you always the one standing solidly by our side? If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t be here today. 

Sometimes showing a little vulnerability isn’t the same as throwing in the towel, you get that? You’re just too stubborn, which is why those two always seem to get the upper
