Chapter 2928

Was Francis still considering Regina his flesh and blood, or were his latter years now pinned on theunborn child in Imogen’s womb, whose gender was yet to be revealed?

Nolan didn't bother with small talk. He pulled up a chair and sat down, decisively ensuring theTanner household was now tightly sealed. Not even a fly could escape.

Francis, visibly annoyed, dropped his fork. “What's this about? Shouldn't you be putting moreenergy into replaceing your wife? What business do you have barging into my house?”

He was still holding a grudge against Nolan for hanging up on him twice before.

Meanwhile, Madeline couldn't help but avert her gaze upon locking eyes with Nolan

Imogen instinctively held her belly tighter.

Nolan's suspicions were confirmed upon seeing Madeline's guilty eyes. Every time he had visited theTanner Mansion for a meal before, Madeline was always glued to him, not wanting to miss a second.She was scared now, and he wanted to know how many people were involved in this.

He didn't even spare Regina's biological father from his list of suspects. He didn’t trust the man onebit.

"Why am I here? I'm here to ask how can you all be so heartless? Regina is missing, and you all cansit here and eat? Or is it that one of you knows she’s safe?”

Imogen, under pressure, responded, “Don’t blame your father-in-law. It's just my preg cravings. Ican't be starving, so they thought to sit down with me for a bit of food. Besides, haven't you beendoing everything to replace Regina? We can't be of much help, s we're taking care of ourselves first.Regina wouldn't want to come back to us all sick wit worry over her, would she? She's always beenkind-hearted, I know that.”

“Huh,” Nolan scoffed, “All the nice words are yours to say. Now that Regina is missing, you're colderthan strangers. Don't worry, when she’s back, I'll make sure she knows none of the Tanners need herworry for the rest of her life. Madeline, you believe your sister will come back safe and sound,right?”

Nolan stared into her eyes, but Madeline only glanced back, forcing a small smile, unwilling to meethis gaze.

"Why are you staring at me like that?” she asked, tucking her hair behind her ear again. “Regina isstrong; she has a guardian angel, so nothing will happen to her.”

“Even the strongest guardian angel can't protect her if someone's out to harm her. I just need astraight answer from you- Regina will come back safe and sound.”

Francis, not a fool, realized something was amiss from Nolan's pressing questions.

He slammed his hand on the table, standing up. “Madeline, don't tell me you're involved in

this!”

Madeline, with a face full of horror, looked up and began to defend herself, “Dad, what are yousaying? How could you doubt me like this, even if you don't trust me? How could I possibly beinvolved in this?”
