I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 881

Chapter 881: Nancy's Death

"What are you doing?" Stanley rushed out from inside when he heard the commotion, stepping in front of Yanis to protect her.

The man lifted his gaze and looked at Stanley, then shifted his eyes to Yanis. "The mistress, huh?"

Yanis stared at the man. "What do you want?"

"You'll know when you come with us!" The man waved his hand towards the people behind him.

As the men reached out to grab Yanis, Stanley swatted their hands away. "What are you doing?"

"Get him out of here! Stop wasting time!" one of the men shouted.

Although Stanley was tall, he was outnumbered.

"Stop!"

Just then, Linda appeared with a long stick in her hand and swung it randomly at the men who were grabbing Stanley.

The men released their hold when they were struck by the stick.

Linda looked at them and said, "I've already called the police. If you don't leave now, they'll be here soon!"

The man narrowed his eyes, glanced at Linda, then shifted his gaze back to Yanis. "So, you're Yanis? Someone asked me to give you a message. You better mind your own business. If you interfere in someone else's affairs again, we'll trash your store!"

With a final threat, the man and his group turned and left.

Once they were gone, Linda turned to Yanis. "Yanis, who were those people?"

Yanis shook her head. "I don't know."

"Yanis, have you offended anyone recently?" Stanley asked, looking at Yanis.

Yanis thought for a moment but couldn't think of anyone she had offended during that time.

Just then, Yanis's phone started ringing.

Seeing the caller ID, Yanis suddenly thought of someone.

If she had really offended anyone, it would be Nancy's husband, Andrew.

Yanis answered the call. "Nancy?"

"Yanis, where are you? Don't go out alone, you know?" Nancy's voice came through the phone.

Yanis was taken aback by Nancy's words and naturally thought of what had just happened. "Nancy, are you..."

"Ah! Andrew, what are you doing!"

Yanis heard Nancy scream and objects falling on the ground.

She called Nancy's name a couple of times but didn't hear a response.

The intermittent sounds from the phone were Nancy's cries and Andrew's angry shouts.

The call was soon disconnected.

In that instant, Yanis immediately called Nancy back, but no one answered, just like before.

Concerned about the previous incident when Nancy mentioned wanting to sue Andrew, Yanis called Lane.

"Yanis?" Lane answered the phone quickly.

Yanis replied, "Lawyer Phillips, did Nancy contact you?"

Lane spoke in a low voice, "Yes, she did. She was discharged from the hospital a few days ago. We planned to meet and discuss the details. What's wrong?"

Yanis hesitated and briefly explained what had happened just now to Lane. "I'm worried that something might happen to Nancy."

"Where are you now? I'll come find you and we can go check on her together," Lane said over the phone.

Andrew shouted loudly, "I'm the child's father!"

The child continued to cry in Andrew's arms, despite his attempts to console him.

"I don't think this child looks anything like you. You must have taken someone else's child, right?" someone in the crowd spoke up.

"That's right. If it's your own child, why is he crying like this?"

"Call the police directly. This must be a repeat offender!"

The voices in the crowd grew louder and louder, making it impossible for Andrew to leave.

Taking the opportunity, Lane stepped forward. "Give me the child!"

Andrew looked at Lane with a dark expression. "Who are you? Did that bitch Nancy send you? Are you a lawyer?"

Lane didn't respond to Andrew's remarks but repeated firmly, "Give me the child!"

"This is my son! Why should I give him to you?"

"What proof do you have that this is your son?" Lane questioned sternly.

"Yeah, how do you prove that this is your son?"

"Where's the child's mother? Bring her down to verify!"

Andrew was surrounded by a group of people and couldn't escape.

Just as the standoff continued, Yanis rushed out of the elevator in a flustered manner. "Lawyer Phillips, call the police now!"

Lane looked at Yanis, sensing that something was wrong. "What happened?"

Yanis approached and whispered, "Nancy is dead."
