The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 164

No one was backing down.

Nancy watched with clenched fists, her nails digging into her palms.

"Miss Lena, need some help?" A voice, both teasing and menacing, cut through the tension.

Nancy turned her head slightly to see Michael standing in the doorway. His words were meant for her, but his steely gaze was fixed on Cyrus.

She didn't respond, instead shifting her attention to Judson and Cyrus.

Just then, Judson delivered a high kick to Cyrus' face.

Cyrus staggered back a few steps, crashing into the couch with a thud and losing his balance.

Both of them bore the marks of the fight on their faces, and their shirts were smeared with shoe prints.

Judson looked down at Cyrus with a cold smirk. "Stay away from Nancy. Next time, I won't go easy on you."

Cyrus clenched his fists and made an attempt to stand, but a wave of dizziness swept over him, leaving a metallic taste of blood in his mouth. He took a deep breath, willing himself to calm down, and looked at Nancy.

She was already moving towards Judson. Her eyes were filled with undisguised concern as she looked at Judson. "Are you okay?"

Judson grinned, shaking his head. "It's nothing, just a few scratches. Feels like a cat got to me."

Nancy glanced at his split lip and swollen eye. "..."

Sure it didn't hurt?

Cyrus, humiliated and furious, shouted, "Nancy, I'm your husband!"

She should be worried about him, not Judson.

Judson's expression darkened again. "Want another round, Cyrus?"

"You!!" Cyrus was seething, but before he could speak, Nancy cut in coldly.

"Cyrus, it's not just today you deserve a beating; it's been a long time coming."
