The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 42

Listening to the high decibels and astonishment through the phone, Nancy couldn't help but chuckle, "Sweetheart, calm down."

Lena was her name abroad. She had established her studio before meeting Cyrus. Winnie was the designer and Nancy’s friend overseas.

Luckily, she hadn't told Cyrus about it. Otherwise, her move to Ardenweald wouldn't have been peaceful.

"But I can't calm down! Why didn't you tell me to pick you up at the airport? You just showed up out of the blue!"

"It was a last-minute decision," Nancy replied with a smile.

Winnie huffed in annoyance, "That's just so like you. But the idea of you actually coming into work is exciting! Wow, the big boss of Lena's Studio is here." Winnie grew more excited. "Boss, thinking about how young you got hitched and shied away from the limelight. It’s such a waste! If I had your talent, I'd be the world's leading designer."

Mentioning getting hitched young, Nancy lowered her gaze and laughed mockingly, "So, I've decided to focus on my career and not on love."

Winnie froze. "Lena, are you saying you got a divorce?"

"Yes, I got divorced. My husband let me down," Nancy had come to terms with it.

Winnie cursed under her breath, "Boss, no man in this world deserves you! Welcome back to focusing on your career."

"Right, see you at the office tomorrow." Nancy looked out the car window at the villas before ending the call.

After paying the driver, she got out and grabbed her luggage.

Her marriage to Cyrus was meant to be for life, but he walked out halfway through. It was fortunate she hadn't shared much about Cyrus with her colleagues at the studio.

Though there had been photos of her and Cyrus back home, everyone was too busy, and the headlines abroad didn't match those at home. No one knew she was married to Cyrus.

Nancy stopped before her villa, about to unlock the door, when she heard rushed footsteps.

Nancy sensed danger as a large hand reached from behind her, gripping her neck tightly.
