The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow novel Chapter 77

While listening to Judson's veiled insults, Baldrick's face turned sour. "Who are you calling out with that tone?"

He was no fool. Judson was calling him a dog in his roundabout way.

Without missing a beat, Judson glanced at Nancy and said, "Hey babe, this guy looks pretty terrible. Let's head inside."

With that, he started leading Nancy toward the mansion.

Baldrick didn't think twice before stepping in their way, his handsome face clouded with anger. "You're not going anywhere. Nancy, who the heck is this guy?"

It hadn't been long since Nancy left, and she was with another man by her side upon their reunion. Who could stand that?

Judson's eyes briefly flashed with malice, a clear sign he was ready for a fight, but it vanished as quickly as it appeared.

Frowning deeply, Nancy felt irritated, especially at Baldrick's questioning gaze.

Yeah, Baldrick had helped her before. But were they so close that she had to report her personal life to him?

With that thought, Nancy firmly removed the hand from her mouth, frowning at Baldrick.

"Mr. Robertson, I'm all ears if you want to discuss work, but my personal life isn't your business."

Baldrick felt a pang of hurt. "Nancy, that's not what I meant. And you know how I feel about you."

"That's why I turned you down." Nancy's response was stern, with no room for humor.

"Baldrick, I don't want to drag past connections into this."

Given that Baldrick knew her and Cyrus, there was no chance for them.

Baldrick felt a rush of shock as he realized what she meant. It suddenly hit him that he'd told Nancy about how Norton had brought in a stand-in for Cyrus at a party, which ended up causing a fight.
