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

Chapter 244

It was all Nancy's fault...

Gaye's eyes held something unreadable for a moment before she finally spoke with a detached calm, "Eugene, if you need to apologize, it's not to me. I wasn't the one she insulted."

"You're right," Eugene quickly agreed, turning his attention to Nancy. "Miss Lena, Sarah tends to speak without thinking. Please don't take her words to heart..."

As he was about to say more, Eugene caught a clear look at Nancy and his voice trailed off, leaving only awe and greed in his eyes. She was breathtaking; he had never seen anyone so beautiful.

Nancy frowned at his blatant stare.

Without a second thought, Ramona stepped in front of Nancy, her smile not reaching her eyes as she looked at Eugene. "No need for apologies. We don't care to hear them. It's just surprising that Sarah ended up as your fiancée."

"How did you convince the Hernandez family?" she asked, her tone dripping with

sarcasm.

Sarah's face flushed with anger, especially with Nancy watching.

Eugene shrugged it off, "I just mentioned it to Mr. Hernandez, and he agreed to let me be with his daughter. Honestly, I wasn't even keen on getting engaged to Sarah. Her photos... well, never mind."
