Chapter 171 Nancy Mistook Him For Someone Else

The two men had similar heights and builds, both dressed in white shirts and black pants. They even exuded a similar cold demeanor. Moreover, with the dim lighting in the room, Nancy could only see a vague silhouette. Dizzy and disoriented, she had mistaken Julian for Nicholas.

Toni immediately rushed over to support Nancy. “Are you okay? Did you get hurt?”
