Hayley suddenly felt a wave of unease and instinctively grabbed Cyrus' hand. "Mr. Gordon, my stomach..."

She couldn't even finish her sentence before the pain overwhelmed her.

Norton answered honestly, "He's known in the industry as quite the scoundrel. He's smart in business, but his reputation is bad. Baldrick, why do you ask?"

"Why indeed?" Baldrick sneered at Cyrus.

Cyrus felt his heart racing uncontrollably and impulsively reached out to grab Nancy's hand. He said, "Let's go home."

But Nancy forcefully shook off his hand and stepped back, her expression turning cold and distant.

"I'm here with Baldrick tonight, Mr. Gordon. I'm not leaving with you." she said.

Turning, she walked upstairs.
