DreameNovelChapter 22 Cyrus' expression softened, and seeing this, the hospital director cautiously made his exit.
The door to the room slammed shut.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLooking as pale as a ghost, Hayley turned to Cyrus with a forced smile. "Cyrus, I'm okay. Don't worry about me." Cyrus took her hand firmly. "Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to our baby." Seeing a hint of a smile on Hayley's face, even a touch of bashfulness in her eyes, she asked, "Cyrus, why are you so good to me?" Cyrus was stunned, suddenly picturing Nancy with her beaming smile, asking, "Cyrus, why are you so good to me? Do you likethat much?" The thought of him leaving with Hayley, leaving Nancy amidst the crowd watching them, unsettled Cyrus. But Caleb was there, too, so it wasn't all bad! Noticing Cyrus' distracted state, Hayley interrupted with annoyance, "Cyrus!" Cyrus snapped back to reality. "Don't worry about it. We've got our baby to think about." Hayley's mood instantly lifted, but before she could continue, Cyrus' phone rang.
Cyrus answered swiftly, "Speak." Caleb hesitated, "Mr. Gordon, after you and Ms. Grant left, a swarm of paparazzi surrounded Mrs. Gordon!" "What did you say?" Overhearing, Hayley felt her heart skip a beat. Were the paparazzi giving Nancy a hard time? Cyrus' handsface darkened, "Where's Nancy now? Give her the phone!" "She's not with me. Mr. Robertson showed up and took her away from the paparazzi." Cyrus' mood soured even more. Baldrick was at the police station, too? Sensing something amiss, Cyrus stood up abruptly. "Caleb, did you call Nancy there?" "No, I happened to run into her at the station." Before he could calm down, Caleb added, "Mr. Gordon, before she left, Mrs. Gordon asked you to clear up your relationship with Hayley to the press within the next few days. Otherwise..." "Otherwise, what?" Cyrus had a sinking feeling.
Caleb spatted, "She'll file for divorce!" Cyrus' expression turned stormy, his grip on the phone tightening. Nancy wanted a divorce! Was it because of Hayley or Baldrick? Thinking this, Cyrus ordered, "Caleb, find out why Baldrick was at the station. And find out who sent those paparazzi. Things are getting ridiculous!" He hoped Nancy wouldn't disappoint him. If she was doing this because of Baldrick... No, she wouldn't. Nancy wasn't like that! Caleb hurried to comply.
Cyrus hung up, his thoughts consumed by Baldrick and Nancy, missing the unease on Hayley's face. "Hayley, take care of yourself in the hospital. Callif you need anything." It wasn't a suggestion from Cyrus but a command. Hayley nodded obediently, but Cyrus was already on his way out.
Outside Maple Grove Residences, Nancy turned to Baldrick, "Mr. Robertson, thanks for your help."
"It was nothing." Baldrick smiled. "So, does this mean you oweone? Payback when you can?"After pausing for a moment, Nancy said, "As long as it doesn't cross any lines or compromise my principles, I'll repay the favor."

Just as she entered the living room, her phone rang.
It was Alexis. "Ms. Gonzalez, we've started to review your documents Everything seems in order, and we should have your identity canceled within a week." "That's great news. Please proceed as quickly as possible," Nancy responded, relieved to hear sgood news.
But as she hung up, a chilling voice scared her out. "Nancy, what are you canceling?"
