He looked at her, almost in disbelief. "Nancy, what did you just say..." She was leaving him. How could this happen...
But Nancy didn't want to look at Cyrus any longer. She grabbed Judson's hand without hesitation.
"Let's go." Judson nodded eagerly. "Yes." He'd never wanted Nancy alone with Cyrus anyway, because Cyrus didn't deserve her.

But before he could finish his plea, Michael stepped in front of him, a mocking grin on his face. "She's gone, man. You can yell all you want, but she won't hear you."

Michael understood exactly what Cyrus was implying, but he shrugged it off, unfazed. "It doesn't matter. While you're in my territory, you'd better behave." He shifted gears smoothly. "You like to treat Lena like she's clueless, but she's not. I'm not either. You know damn well what you've done." Cyrus stayed silent.
"Mr. Gordon, it's tfor you to leave," Michael said, stepping aside with a dismissive wave.
Cyrus shot Michael a dark look, pressed his lips together, and walked away.
As Cyrus disappeared from view, Michael allowed himself a cold chuckle.
