The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 162

Sarah stood there, her eyes filled with nothing but love. She thought she could forget Cyrus, but who would have guessed he'd show up in Ardenweald?

"Just wait," she thought to herself. "This time, I'll make sure Cyrus is mine."

Nancy scribbled her name and that of Evergreen Global on the document, accepting the paint from the auctioneer with a smile. "Thank you," she said warmly.

"Miss Lena, it's our pleasure," the auctioneer replied earnestly. "I'm sure the recipients of your donation will be thrilled."

"You can check the paint, Miss Lena. If everything's in order, you're free to go."

"Alright," Nancy replied coolly.

After the auctioneer exited and the door clicked shut, Nancy unwrapped the package to inspect the paint. Satisfied, she repacked it and was just about to leave when the door creaked open again. Nancy looked up and smiled, thinking the auctioneer had returned. "The paint's fine. Oh, Cyrus, why are you here?"

Her smile vanished instantly, replaced by a hardened expression.

Cyrus closed the door behind him, meeting Nancy's wary gaze with a resigned sigh. "Nancy, I donated without even signing my name just to have a chance to talk to you."

"I don't think we have much to discuss," Nancy replied, her face set like stone.

"How is that possible?" Cyrus demanded, clenching his fists as he strode over to her.

His imposing figure loomed over Nancy, casting a shadow that seemed to swallow the light around her.

The scent of Cyrus filled the air, and Nancy instinctively stepped back, but his hand shot out, gripping her wrist firmly.

"Nancy," Cyrus' voice was tight with emotion. "Do you have any idea how frantic I've been searching for you? Why did you erase your identity and leave me, ending up here?"
