The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 14

On the first day of summer break, she sipped the milk passed to her by her uncle through marriage.

As she awaited clarity, she found her clothes stripped away.

The man gazed at her with voracity, "Awake so soon? Well, that's fine, you little temptress. Did you know I wanted you the moment I saw you?"

With that, he lunged toward the girl on the bed.

"No... don't... get away..." Nancy twisted in pain, murmuring in her sleep, "Get away..."

Yet, the twisted face of her uncle in her dream morphed into Cyrus' handsome but disdainful visage. "She's been taken advantage of. If you like her, go after her!"

Tears streamed down Nancy's face. She longed to confront Cyrus about his treatment.

But before she could speak, Cyrus harshly pushed her to the ground.

Wrapping his arm around Hayley, Cyrus laughed arrogantly. "Nancy, open your eyes and see. I stopped loving you long ago. My heart belongs to Hayley. You're a pitiful creature. No one would love you."

Nancy's face was twisted in agony, her pillow soaked with tears, yet her eyes remained shut.

She murmured intermittently in her sleep, "Cyrus..."

Cyrus, who had just entered, saw Nancy in bed, her face flushed and contorted in pain.

He was hit by instant panic as he rushed over. "Nancy, what's wrong? Damn, you have a fever!"

Cradling Nancy, he shouted, "Get the car ready! Why didn't anyone tell me my wife has been feverish all night!"
