The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 224

After being married for so long, Nancy didn't need a crystal ball to figure out what Cyrus was up to.

It was obvious. He'd hammer her over this "plagiarism" nonsense and drag Baldrick down with her. Then, he'd use it as leverage to force her to leave with him.

Baldrick wanted to argue, but then he remembered the incident with Norton Patel. "You're right, Nancy. Thanks for the heads up. I'll handle it right away."

Nancy just hummed in response before hanging up the phone. The busy signal on the other end was like a ticking clock in Baldrick's mind.

The warmth drained from his face as he turned to the doctor. "Is the surgery stitching done? Once it's done, I'm out of here."

Even the assistant joined in, "Mr. Robertson, your right shoulder is shattered, and the wound on your arm is deep enough to see the bone. Leaving the hospital now would be..."

"There's no time," Baldrick cut in, his voice as cold as ice. "I have to go."

The words left no room for argument. The doctor knew better than to argue, so he just bandaged Baldrick's wounds quickly.

Baldrick headed for the exit, his mind racing with thoughts of Cyrus' plan to expose him alongside Lucy's scandal. His eyes were dark with determination.

Everyone will see who comes out on top. After all, The Gordon Group isn't exactly squeaky clean either.

Baldrick smirked slightly, glancing at his assistant. "I need you to help me with something…"

He wanted to find out if Cyrus would ditch his company just to be with Nancy. It was about time Cyrus got a taste of his own medicine.

"Where have you been?" Nancy demanded, her voice sharp, as Judson walked into the room, her brows knitting together in concern.

Judson's face lit up with surprise upon seeing Nancy awake. He quickly broke into a sheepish grin.

So, maybe she had overthought things. But could you blame her? Normally when she woke up, Judson would be there, playfully demanding her attention.

Listening to Judson's confident promise of buying a ring for a proposal made her heart skip a beat.

She grabbed the burger with a sigh. "Enough of that, let's just eat."

She was already overwhelmed. She and Judson were practically strangers, despite everything.

Judson nuzzled her shoulder. "Don't worry, Nancy. Whatever's troubling you, it'll pass. I believe in you."

Nancy lowered her gaze, nodding slightly. She had to admit, the breakfast Judson had waited in line for was delicious.

Just as they finished eating, Lenard called, his voice filled with shock. "Nancy, Sarah was found at The Hernandez Group's front door with nothing on, and now it's trending on social media!"
