Nancy's tears came running down her face. Having triggered Nancy's outburst, Spencer panicked."I-I'm sorry. I shouldn't say those things. But where is Yaacob? Why isn't he with you?" Spencer asked."He went back," Nancy wept."How could he leave you alone now?" Spencer asked.The question only exacerbated Nancy's sadness, and she wept vehemently."Nancy…" Spencer called her name gently."Excuse me. I'm a little tired." She went into her room, closed the door, and refused to talk to Spencer anymore.She had another round of crying before falling asleep. Inevitably, her eyes were swollen when she woke. However, she was not in the mood to take care of her face now. She did not even bother to apply foundation.She left her room and saw the farmhouse owner, Anika, at the staircase."Hey, Ms. Lawson. I was wondering why I didn't see you at dinner just now," Anika said in greeting.Nancy looked down toward the dining table covered in empty plates. No one had come to inform her that

Spencer had not wandered too far. He had walked to the gate of the farmhouse, where he discovered Nancy playing with a dog.The farmhouse owner had a yellow dog. Nancy had finished the chicken soup but had not eaten the meat. She did not want to waste the meat by throwing it away, so she fed it to the dog.After that, the dog would not leave her and kept wagging its tail at Nancy. Nancy squatted and stroked its head.Spencer was used to seeing the fierce and bold side of Nancy. He had rarely seen her looking so gentle and kind. He found this different side of her to be very attractive.Truthfully, he was getting bored of Teresa. Nancy was different from Teresa. She did not mind playing with a dog under the hot sun. The sun shone on her hair, and it looked like she was glowing.Only then did Spencer realize that Nancy would also like cuddling and leaning on her husband's chest and would be very gentle and soft with him. That was a side of her he had never seen.'Yaacob must see th

Spencer had refused to admit that he still had feelings for Nancy, but, in the end, he had agreed to help Teresa cover up the truth.Based on Nancy's personality, she would never let it rest when she woke up. And if Yaacob heard about it, he would easily find out Teresa had drugged her.Teresa's career hung on the line, and as a public figure, she could not afford another scandal. If word got out, her career as a celebrity would end.She had tried to list the downsides of Spencer telling the truth, and she had begged and pleaded until Spencer had finally relented.If Spencer told Nancy that they had slept together, Nancy would never expose the truth and would hide it forever.Spencer felt guilty. He could hear Nancy weeping inside the room. She had never cried so hard, not even when she had been forced into marriage.Spencer could not take it anymore, and he did not know how to face her, so he just walked away, feeling sorry for her.In the evening, Nancy insisted on leaving. Sh

Nancy's ringtone woke her up. It kept ringing like it was a fire alarm. She tucked her hand underneath the pillow to search for her phone.She was still in a daze when she answered the call and heard Yvonne's anxious voice."Nancy! Wake up! You've made the headlines!" Yvonne said,"I'm already part of the past. What reason could the reporters have to write about me?" Nancy asked tiredly."No! The reporter took a photo of you and Spencer together. Are you two back together?" Yvonne asked."What?" Nancy was baffled."What is wrong with you? Why do you still have hopes and feelings for Spencer, that jerk? Isn't Yaacob a lot better?" Yvonne scolded anxiously.Finally, Nancy understood.Everything started with the newspaper headlines. Now, the scandal was trending on the internet. Someone even found photos of them together at Andrew's funeral and Spencer sending Nancy back to Athepolis.The news circulating was that Nancy and Spencer had rekindled their past romance and that she ha

Yaacob went to the window to smoke. Meanwhile, Nancy picked up the rubbish bin and began cleaning up the broken glass.The room was silent. The smell of the cigarettes traveled from the window to Nancy. Yaacob had not smoked in front of her for a long time because she had told him she disliked the smell of cigarettes.He was not a heavy smoker, but he had already smoked five cigarettes in that brief period.Nancy wanted to tell him that it was bad to smoke so much, but she could not say a word even after opening her mouth. In the end, she continued cleaning in silence.She cut her finger as she picked up a piece of broken glass. She grunted in pain and took a look at her finger. It was bleeding. She frowned and looked at Yaacob. He was still staring out the window.He must have heard her cry out. If this had happened in the past, he would have told her to stop cleaning and ask the maid for help instead. Then he would help her apply a band-aid to her finger.However, he did nothin
