The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 144

"Do you really think it's okay to drag Hayley into this mess right now?" Cyrus snapped, glaring at Nancy with a mixture of anger and disbelief.

Nancy stepped out of the car, her expression as cold as ice. There was no trace of warmth in her eyes as she faced Cyrus.

"Really, Cyrus? Who's been unfaithful to whom here?" Nancy shot back, her voice sharp and unwavering. "Do you take me for a fool, Cyrus?"

Cyrus was taken aback by the contempt in Nancy's voice. A sense of unease crept over him as he struggled to make sense of her words. "Nancy, what do you mean by that?" he asked, taking a couple of steps towards her.

Before he could get any closer, Judson, who had been silent until now, lunged forward and delivered a swift kick to the back of Cyrus' head. Cyrus had no time to react before he crashed to the ground with a heavy thud. His mind buzzed with pain, and his vision blurred.

Caleb, who had been watching the scene unfold, was startled and turned angrily to Judson. "Who gave you the right to lay a hand on Mr. Gordon?" he demanded, but his words faltered under Judson's icy, unwavering gaze.

The air was suddenly thick with tension, and Caleb felt a chill of fear wash over him, making him tremble uncontrollably.

Judson's expression remained stern as he moved to stand by Nancy's side, finally coming to a stop beside her.

Cyrus took a deep breath, his head spinning as he focused his gaze on Nancy. "Nancy, you've been brainwashed by this pretty boy. Come home with me, and I'll pretend none of this ever happened!"

Nancy laughed, a bitter edge to her voice. "Cyrus, you're mistaken. I'm Lena, not Nancy."

Cyrus felt his heart race. "Nancy, what are you saying?"

Instead of answering, Nancy pulled out her phone and dialed a number. "I need some people over here."
