Chapter 23

Nancy's heart was pounding like a drum solo at a rock concert, and when she turned around, there was Cyrus, striding into the room like a storm about to break.

Cyrus' face was dark and stormy, but Nancy didn't back down. Instead, her voice dripped with sarcasm, "Oh, so you finally brought Hayley home? I thought you'd forgotten this place was your home, too."

Cyrus seemed to ignore the sharpness of Nancy's tone, his anger flaring up like a bonfire. "And do you still remember this is your home? That you, Nancy, are still my wife?"

When facing Cyrus' aggressive stance, Nancy couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. "Really? You could've fooled me. It seems you're the one who's forgotten."

Oh, the irony. Cyrus had found a new flame, yet he acted like the victim.

Cyrus' face turned an even uglier shade of red, "Nancy, how did you come back here? Do I need to remind you?"
