The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 2730

"They'll only find peace once they're engaged," mused Imogen as she sipped her coffee. "And they can truly support each other's ambitions, don't you agree?"

Francis nodded. "I know you care about Regina, and you've been so devoted all these years. I do have someone in mind for her, a young man named Nolan Harris. He's nothing like those spoiled rich kids, but just because I approve of him doesn't mean he'll take a shine to the Tanner family. It's a tough situation."

Regina, overhearing her father's words, felt a pang of discomfort.

And Imogen couldn't believe her ears. Francis had set his sights on Nolan before she could even make a move. Her body tensed up, and she accidentally pressed a bit too hard on Francis's shoulders. "What's gotten into you?" he winced.

"Sorry, sorry. I was just lost in thought about Nolan's good looks and got carried away," Imogen apologized, massaging the spot she had poked.

"I've seen Nolan around, and he seems alright. But I can't shake the feeling that he's not quite the right fit for Regina," she said, searching for nonchalance in her voice.

"Oh? Have you seen them together?" Francis asked casually. To him, Nolan was the prime candidate for Regina's hand, but he worried about the heat of one-sided affection.

"I saw them exchange a few words from a distance once; they didn't seem cozy. Nolan's made quite a name for himself at such a young age, and Regina, with her fiery spirit, moved out the moment she got back from abroad. She took up that roving reporter gig, living on her own terms. They're both headstrong. Pair them up, and sparks are bound to fly."
