FreeNovelChapter 2901 As she grew older, she wisely chose another room, making her visits to that particular room less frequent.
But on significant days, she’d still spend a few hours there. It was her sacred space to be alone with her mom's memory, where no one else was allowed to disturb.
When Francis brought up that room, it was his way to use her mother’s memory to remind her to visit hmore often and remember her roots as a member of the Tanner family.
But hearing this from Madeline was a different story. She seemed to forget her place in the family, acting as if she had a say in these matters.

“Don’t worry, Dad. Just because I'm married doesn’t mean | won't cback. I'm here now, aren't |, having dinner with you? But now that | am married, | think it’s important to set sboundaries. We can’t let certain people think things are the sas when | was single.
| think I'll just cback alone for dinner unless it’s a special occasion. Nolan has his own family to spend twith; it wouldn't be fair to expect him to cwithevery time.” If Nolan had it his way, he'd accompany Regina back every time; but since she voiced her preference, there must be a reason.
“This is unacceptable!” Madeline blurted out in panic, fearing she’d lose any chance to be close to Nolan if Regina started coming back alone.
Everyone turned their eyes towards her, while Nolan kept his head down, focusing on the mountain of food Regina had piled onto his plate as if she thought him a bottomless pit or wanted to spare him from speaking.

She’s only slightly younger than Regina.

Now that Regina's married, it will soon be your daughter's turn. Don’t worry, I'll make sure to find someone you approve of.” Imogen looked at him with feigned surprise, her eyes soft, “Then I'll have to rely on your judgment.”
Changing the subject, Francis turned to Nolan, “Do you have any friends around Madeline's age? Someone suitable for her? He believed that Nolan, being as commendable as he is, surely had friends of equal caliber.
It could tighten the two families’ bonds even further, making any thought of separation impossible.
Regina's expression darkened at her father's words. Wasn't it enough hat the Tanner family benefited from their connection to the Harris family? Now he aimed to extend that influence to Nolan's friends!
“Let's just enjoy dinner without delving into such topics to day" " She said, trying to steer the conversation back to a peaceful family meal.
