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

Chapter 256

"How can I leave? My three children are still with John, and look at the state I'm in. How can I possibly escape from him?" Ember burst into tears suddenly, her sobs echoing through the room.

Nancy narrowed her eyes dangerously. "Three children? What about your other child?"

Before Ember could respond, John swung the bedroom door open with a dramatic flair.

He shot a greedy grin at Nancy. "Oh, the other one's safe in the countryside. If Ember refuses to meet my demands, I'll do away with her, just like I did with the first one."

Nancy paused, her fingers twitching as she sensed something was amiss. Ramona sprang to her feet. "In that case, there's nothing more to discuss."

With that, she grabbed Nancy's arm and headed for the door.

But before they could leave, the door burst open with a loud bang.

Seven or eight men dressed in black stormed in, and Sarah followed leisurely behind, her eyes blazing red as she glared at Nancy. "Nancy, where do you think you're going?!"

Nancy and Ramona's expressions darkened instantly, while Ember, still kneeling, cried even harder. "I'm sorry, I didn't want to poison you, but I couldn't bear the thought of my children dying..."

Nancy's heart quivered slightly. Just as she was about to speak, a wave of exhaustion washed over her, making her vision blur and her body weaken.
