The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2863

Chapter 2863 

His fingers clenched suddenly under the table, and he was unsure of what to say then. 

Regina continued, “I’m not trying to play the sympathy card. I just want you to trust that I would never use such tactics to get close to someone I like. Please, just give me that tiny bit of trust for all the time we’ve known each other, okay?” 

She looked at Nolan with hopeful eyes, longing for a positive response. During the silence while Nolan pondered, an unexpected visitor arrived. 

Francis walked in with a hearty laugh, and he was even casually slinging an arm around Nolan’s shoulder, “Regina, you’re still under the weather. Why are you here entertaining guests again? But if it’s for Nolan, just drop a hint to your old man next time, will you? After all, this is my future son-in-law we’re talking about; I should be in on the meet and greet.” 

Regina’s expression changed instantly, “How did you get here? How did you know I was here?” 

Then she glanced at Nolan, who was also looking back at her with a sarcastic expression. 

“Believe me, I have no idea why he’s here!” she exclaimed. 

“Dear child, things have come to this point and why you’re still trying to hide it? If you hadn’t tipped me off about this meeting place in advance, how could I have possibly found you? Even though you two are about to be wed, honesty is key in these little things. It’s the only way you’ll make it in the long run,” Francis lectured with an air of superiority, which only added to Regina’s discomfort. Yet she was at a loss as to how he knew of their meeting place. 

Nolan had been silent from the start, but it was clear to anyone that he was becoming 

sullen. 

Were they playing him for a fool? 

“Trust me, I really don’t know why. I never planned to use that surveillance to threaten yo because I know that well you came to help. It’s my fault for not handling things better, an here’s your thing back! We will have nothing to do with each other after this.” 

Regina even avoided Francis’ hand as she handed back the chip she had found to Nolan. 

But to her surprise, Francis just chuckled, “When will you stop deceiving him, my dear girl? There’s no information on this at all, so giving it to him is useless. You two should stop struggling; it’s a good match for both families.” 

Nolan paused in his retrieval of the item. He glanced instinctively at Regina and found her eyes filled with shock as well.
