All Chapters of When She Turns Her Back: Chapter 651 - Chapter 660

The moment Christian's voice reached her, Nancy spun around.Seeing him there broke whatever composure she had left. The tears she had been holding back spilled over all at once, rolling down her face one after another without stopping.She didn't think twice as she threw herself into his arms. She grabbed fistfuls of his shirt and hit him with her free hand. "Chris, what took you so long? What took you so long?"She asked it twice, each time quieter and more broken than the last.Christian listened to her sob against him and brought his hand up to cradle the back of her head. "I'm sorry. I wasn't paying enough attention. I should never have let you go through all of this alone."Nancy cried in uneven, shuddering waves. "Chris, I thought you didn't want me anymore."He held her tighter and said softly, "That's not true. How could that ever be true?"Nancy pulled back just enough to look at him. "Chris, my father..."He reached up and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes

Henry's words made Talia want to disappear into the floor."That's not what I meant," she said, feeling a little embarrassed."Then sleep here," Henry said simply."But Henry, this is your…"However, he didn't let her finish. He stepped out of the room and pulled the door shut behind him. Just before it clicked closed, he said, "Goodnight."The rest of her sentence died in her throat. She stood there looking at the closed door for a moment, turning things over quietly in her mind.In the end, she washed up and climbed into Henry's bed. The room was simply furnished, with no elaborate décor and bedsheets in a soft, plain shade of grey.She wasn't particularly tired, but with her phone ruined thanks to Quentin, she had nothing to do. Her mind drifted to Christian. He had left, and she had no idea where he was now or what he was doing. She figured that he was probably with Nancy.She thought about the divorce then. There were only three days left in the mandatory waiting period.

Talia hadn't quite pulled herself together when a bright, delighted voice rang out from inside the house. "Aunt Talia, you're back!"She looked up just in time to see Maeve come barreling toward her at full speed. Her heart melted on the spot. She bent down and opened her arms wide, bracing herself as Maeve launched straight into them."Aunt Talia, I missed you so much. You're finally home."Maeve wrapped her arms around Talia's neck and rubbed her little face against her cheek over and over, like a kitten demanding to be held.Talia held her close, and before she could stop it, her nose prickled, and the tears came. Her voice caught in her throat. "It's my fault. I should've come back sooner.""No, it's not," Maeve said. "Mom told me that you had something really, really important to take care of. She said that once you're done with everything, you can stay at the Stewart residence all the time and be with me every day."Talia understood exactly what Paige meant by that. Maeve w

As the crowd gathered, Talia pulled Maeve into a tight embrace. Paige pressed close, and together she and Talia formed a human shield around Maeve.On the floor, Rodney groaned in agony for several moments before finally catching his breath.Someone helped him up. As he steadied himself, Talia saw his pale face was slick with sweat. His gaze was cold and piercing.He glared at Talia and snarled through clenched teeth, "You're dead, bitch. I'm going to kill you!"Talia didn't even give him a glance. She grabbed Paige's hand, keeping Maeve sandwiched between them, and started walking toward the exit.A few men blocked the doorway, but Talia tried to push past them as if they were invisible."Hold them down," Rodney barked, his voice low and commanding.As soon as he said that, several men lunged forward and grabbed Talia and Paige from both sides.Outnumbered and overpowered, they were now nothing more than lambs to the slaughter.Maeve's eyes turned a frantic red as she let out

Rodney felt the deadly intent in Quentin's eyes, and a chill crept down his spine.He couldn't bear to look into those eyes any longer and quickly scanned the surroundings, hoping to find a way out.But the people Quentin brought with him had completely surrounded the area.At this point, even a fly wouldn't be able to slip through.Rodney didn't argue. Quentin immediately understood that Rodney had definitely hurt Maeve.Quentin couldn't hold back anymore. He turned to the man standing behind him and barked, "Jericho, take them out of here."Jericho Mercer, the man with a long scar across his face, nodded and quickly responded, "Yes, Mr. Henderson."Without wasting any time, he politely approached Talia and Paige.Paige held Maeve in her arms, hurrying toward the exit while calling out her name. Talia followed closely behind, her heart aching for Maeve.As they exited the studio, Talia instinctively glanced back. Through the crowd, she caught a glimpse of Quentin's back.He
