DreameNovelChapter 39 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.
Sensing something amiss, Cyrus turned deathly pale and stared at Nancy, his heart pounding. "Nancy, Ogden wouldn't dare, right?" Nancy didn't address his question. Instead, she looked back at Cyrus with eyes full of scorn. "Does it matter? Weren't you busy with something else and had to leave earlier?" 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.

Turning, she walked upstairs.
About to follow, Cyrus got blocked by Baldrick.
Cyrus' face fell as Baldrick coldly intervened, "Shall we talk?" Cyrus was speechless.
Watching Nancy ascend the stairs alone, Cyrus clenched his fists, his gaze turning icy. "Alright, let's talk." After Cyrus and Baldrick left, Norton seemed to sense something and followed them.
Upstairs, Nancy watched them leave without any change in her expression.
Suddenly, a soft voice reached her, "Nancy, I can't believe Ogden had the nerve to lay his hands on you. But then again, Cyrus was too busy caring for me." Nancy turned to see Hayley approaching. Their eyes met, and Hayley's gaze was jealous at the sight of Nancy's refined elegance.
Hayley snorted, "Nancy, what's the use of being pretty if you can't keep your man? You can't even stand up to my provocations." Nancy's eyebrow quirked. "Why don't you say that again before Cyrus?" Hayley faltered, her face clouding over.

"Nancy, don't flatter yourself too much. Do you seriously think Cyrus likes you?" Hayley's pupils dilated, her face twisting with sarcasm. "Of course, Cyrus likes me. Why else would I be pregnant? Didn't you see how many condoms we used?" "Is that what's important here? More importantly, would he dare admit in front ofwhose child you're actually carrying? He wouldn't dare. Otherwise, he wouldn't have claimed the child was Norton's." Nancy coldly exposed the truth.
Reminded of Nancy's contemptuous look, Hayley whispered evilly, "Cyrus might not admit it, but he'll never touch you again. He thinks you're dirty after being taken advantage of by Ogden. Speaking of which, you must have enjoyed Ogden's advances last night. It seems that being taken advantage of is your fate..." Nancy's breath hitched, her mind going blank, and she impulsively pushed Hayley.
But at that moment, Hayley cunningly stepped back and tumbled down the stairs. "I've won."
Nancy's hand fell through the air, watching Hayley fall, her expression dag. She'd been fooled! From a corner.
"Cyrus, if you don't love Nancy, let her go. There's no need to leave herm behind to discuss deals with Ogden!" Baldrick said coldly. Norton frowned. "Cyrus, that's too much. How could you treat Nancy like that?" As if hearing nothing, Cyrus grabbed Baldrick by the collar. "What did Ogden do to Nancy? Are you lying to me?" Baldrick's face darkened. "What do you mean by that?" "You know what I mean. Ogden knew Nancy was my wife. He wouldn't dare take advantage of her!"
Cyrus' expression was distant, unwilling to accept the pt the truth. It must be you and Naney plotting behind my E) back. That's why..." Listening to Cyrus' words, Baldrick's expression turned to pure derision, about to retort.
