The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo)

Chapter 2921 Imogen couldn't help but chuckle, “Is he kidding? How could anything happen to her just because she’s coming home? Maybe Regina had a spat with him and that's why she’s not picking up his calls. Does he think something's happened to her because of that?” Francis, clearly running out of patience, replied, “Enough with the questions, just wait at home. That's exactly what I told him when I called, but he just wouldn't believe it. He even threatened me. I really don't know if he even considers me an elder!” As he spoke, he was already heading downstairs, with Imogen following, arms crossed, and a look of disdain on her face.

1. If it weren't for the sake of the baby she was carrying, she really wouldn't approve of Francis’ actions. But since Nolan had reached out to Francis, it seemed like trouble was indeed brewing. Instinctively, Imogen thought to check on Madeline. If something really had happened, she needed to know her daughter was safe under her watch. But to her surprise, when she knocked on Madeline's door, no one was there! She had told her recently not to wander off given everything that was happening. How could she not be back by now?

You better not let me find out you have anything to do with this.” Hearing Imogen'’s stern tone, Madeline quickly responded with a laugh, “Mom, you're thinking too much.

It's obviously dangerous, and she refuses to have a bodyguard. How is this my fault? What could I possibly do? Since you want me back, I'll just say goodbye to my friends and head home, okay? You can't get angry now, you've got my little brother in your belly. Don’t worry, I'll be home in twenty-five minutes.” Hearing Madeline's words, Imogen finally felt relieved. It wasn't that she didn’t want to confront Regina, but now that she was married to Nolan, she couldn't gauge his feelings towards Regina. If those two actually hit it off, wouldn't making a move on Regina be too risky? One way or another, it was crucial to figure out Nolan's true feelings towards that woman before taking any action. 2/2
