But, playing the coquette in front of her boyfriend was understandable, Regina supposed.
“Ms. Tanner, could you hang tight here for a sec? I'll let Dahlia know you're here.” Regina nodded, arms folded across her chest, a look of unfazed confidence playing on her face that piqued Sienna’s interest.
Dahlia was known to be a tough cookie, one that even she, Dahlia’s agent, couldn't sway-what chance did young Regina stand? But since Regina only asked for a minute of Dahlia’s time, Sienna figured she could play matchmaker. It'd also shut up those blabbermouths at New Blossom Press.
