The Road to Rebirth Her Fresh Start and His Late Sorrow by Helena R. Bates

Chapter 32

Cyrus stood outside the door with an inscrutable look in his eyes. He should have felt relieved, but instead, his heart felt inexplicably heavy, as if Nancy had uncovered something.

Suddenly, her phone pinged.

It was a message from Hayley.
