Aline couldn“t help but worry about Regina, knowing well that her family raised a sensible
child.
"Okay, Grandma, Grandpa, Mom and Dad, you don't have to fret about this. I promise I'll have it sorted in two days, okay? Just stay at home and enjoy your golden years. I've told you not to get all worked up over my love life.”
The old lady grumbled, “If you had a girlfriend by now, would we even need to worry like
this?
And now, to top it off, you're being framed by some girl, I can’t fathom what sort of upbringing she had.”
Nolan frowned and instinctively defended, “She's not like that. She's nothing like her father, and I bet she doesn’t even know what he's got himself into.”
It was the first time Nolan spoke up for someone else, so the elders exchanged knowing glances. It seemed that the girl had a shot at him.
“If you really do have feelings for this girl, why not just accept it and bring her into the family? Who knows what you might have to deal with in the future?” Palmer suggested.
Nevertheless, Nolan shook his head, “I'm not certain yet. I just know what kind of person she is.” Since Nolan had spoken his mind, the family had nothing more to worry about. But still, the situation was irksome. They were supposed to be enjoying a family reunion, and now, it was marred by this mess with Francis.
Bad luck seemed to be in the air, and they had no idea how far Francis was willing to go.
The next morning, Lucy sent a message to Nolan, who was on his way to work, in a hurry urging him to respond as soon as he saw it.
Nolan had never seen Lucy so panicked; she even had it all under control during her first months as an intern.
“Mr. Harris, someone anonymously sent a video to all our company’s employee inboxes featuring you and an unknown woman. They're threatening to blow this up if you don't take responsibility! I've had our team pull the videos as fast as they could, but I'm not sure if there have been any leaks,”
Lucy's voice carried a hint of guilt. She wondered if she could've done better as his. secretary, especially in keeping the staff from leaking the videos.
Nolan gripped the steering wheel, his forearms tense with veins popping.

Francis seemed more reckless than Nolan had anticipated, and sadly, Regina was paying the price for her father's actions, who was now nowhere to be found.
This time, Nolan couldn't keep things under control, especially with the video leaking into their social circle and reaching his family.
“Nolan, didn’t you say you'd have this sorted out in a couple of days? Why is it blowing up even more?” Aline called to ask, “Even your grandfather's old army buddies have been inquiring. The stress has made both elders fall ill.”
Though Aline didn't outright blame him, Nolan could feel the anger. His family, whom he cherished, was being hurt by outsiders.
The grandparents were too old for such shocks; Nolan was grateful they had kept their composure until now, but Francis was relentless in his provocation.
“Mom, tell Dad when you go back that since they're so keen on joining the Harris family, I'll let them: I want her to understand that the Harris family isn't so easy
asy to get into.”
Aline, still concerned after hearing it, replied, “But you said that girl might not be involved. Could this hurt her?”
