NovelEnglishChapter 2679 “Ms. Tanner, you've got the wrong end of the stick here. | never said you went out looking to scalp tickets. Maybe your friend got duped by a scalper, too, you know? As for the interview, I'll mull it over and get back to you within 24 hours.
Unless there’s something else, I'd appreciate it if you could make your exit now, Ms. Tanner. | really need to wind down.” Regina found herself ushered out of the dressing room, and even as the door closed behind her, she was still reeling in confusion.

She’d paid through the nose to get those tickets from a friend, and now she'd been tarred with the scalper’s brush! To make matters worse, she hadn't even been given a chance to defend herself before Dahlia had her ousted.
The injustice of it all! As Regina walked away, Nolan watched her every step until she was out of sight.
Dahlia turned to see him and said with a hint of sarcasm, “What's the matter? Can't bear to part with Ms.
Tanner?” Nolan looked at her with mock horror. “A woman who's that much of a handful? Once is more than enough for me. Well, she’s gone now, so I'm heading out, too. You take care and rest up.” He picked up his blazer and was about to leave when Dahlia reached out and grabbed his wrist. x] “Nolan, will you cby tomorrow?” There was a brief silence. Nolan couldn't bring himself to look back at her expression. Finally, he left her with, “As long as you're on stage, I'll be there.” His hand slipped through Dahlia’s grasp like water, beyond her reach.

But he botched it up and kept 007 and sold 008 instead! Thankfully, Mr. Harris didn’t make a fuss, or | wouldn't know how to face you.” 1/2 09:37 Chapter 2679 “What did you say? The sold seat was actually number 008?” After missing out on the interview and getting a reputation smeared, Regina’s day had turned sour.
While she was about to hail a cab to meet her friend, her father called with his usual summoning tone.
“Regina, darling, where are you at?” “Dad, I've just wrapped up today’s work, about to grab sdinner with a friend before heading home. What's up?” Francis Tanner's voice had a commanding tone. “What else could it be? We're hosting a dinner party at htomorrow night, and this time, you're not getting out of it with one of your flimsy excuses, you hear?” “What?” Regina's head felt like it was about to explode.
“Dad, another dinner party? Our house is practically turning into a social club! Why on earth do we have to throw parties every other day? | just want speace and quiet at home.”
