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

Chapter 194

"This guy's not even as good as Judson," Cyrus shot a cold glance towards Lenard. "You're Nancy's junior, so I'll let it slide, but this isn't your place to speak.'

Cyrus remained calm, his expression unchanging. "You're still young. I shouldn't have to repeat myself." "You!" Lenard's anger flared up, ready to explode.
