In complex materials, incommensurate charge-density-wave (CDW) is often formed from local commensurate domains or puddles. Measuring the dynamics of these puddles, we probe the effect of lattice pinning, electronic correlations and disorder on emergent phases. Raman scattering reveals a Fano lineshape of the CDW amplitude mode, indicating strong coupling between the interlayer shear vibration and the CDW order. Time-resolved reflectivity shows a coherent overdamped oscillation below the CDW transition temperature, indicating a new low-frequency hybrid phonon-CDW amplitude mode around 0.15 THz. This we identify as the CDW puddle emerging from the strong Fano coupling. Our measurements further reveal a transition at  14 K, pointing to a possible crossover of the dominant commensuration order of these puddles. These results highlight how the layered structure affects the CDW order, which is crucial for the design and understanding of novel vdW heterostructures.
