Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 107
“No! You can’t!” Lucy screamed as if possessed, suddenly scrambling to her feet. Her voice was shrill, almost desperate. “Dean! You absolutely cannot call the police! If you do, my life will be ruined! You can’t! I’m from the Chancer family! My brother is on the board of trustees—you can’t just ignore that!”Tears brimmed in her eyes, overflowing as she shook her head wildly. She couldn’t let this happen.She was the daughter of the Chancer family, a shining socialite of the East Coast. If she were arrested and sent to jail, not only would the other wealthy families shun her, but she’d become a target of mockery for everyone in her circle.Dean Larson hesitated, visibly torn. After all, the Chancer family held sway over the board.But Zachary’s icy voice cut through the tension. “Don’t worry, Dean Larson. The board isn’t blind to right and wrong. Besides, this matter involves Mia, and the Reynolds family will not let this go. Let’s follow Ms. Sanders’s suggestion.”“Mr. Reynolds!

The Infirmary.Sarah’s legs were badly burned, red and swollen, with blisters forming. Her arms bore smaller burn marks as well.Mia had wanted to come along, but Zachary sent her home, insisting she rest.As the doctor treated Sarah’s burns, she drew in a sharp breath. The pain was excruciating—not just searing heat, but a crawling, prickling sensation, as if countless tiny insects were biting into her skin. It burned and itched all at once, the kind of itch she desperately wanted to scratch but couldn’t without unbearable pain.“Don’t touch it,” Zachary said firmly, catching her wrist to stop her from moving.The doctor handed Zachary an ice pack. “Place this directly on the burn. Keep it against the skin for at least ten minutes.”Zachary took the ice pack but suddenly paused, glancing at the doctor. “Wait—can she still use ice for that... area?”The doctor immediately understood. “It’s fine. She likely won’t feel it there.”Sarah’s face turned crimson. Using her uninjured h

The Infirmary.“Keep the ice on a little longer.”Just as the ice packs were being removed, the door to the infirmary burst open.James walked in with his mother, followed by Charlotte and the Garnett family.“You wretched woman! Give me back my daughter!” Mrs. Chancer yelled, pointing an accusatory finger at Sarah. “The police took my daughter away, and you’re going to march down to that station right now and have her released!”James, slightly more composed, glanced at Sarah’s burns with a flicker of surprise. But when he saw Zachary standing nearby, his expression immediately soured.“Sarah, I apologize on behalf of my sister,” James began, trying to sound reasonable. “But don’t you think you went too far? Calling the police was unnecessary. You were just acting on impulse, weren’t you? Let’s put this behind us. If you can have her released, I’ll make sure you’re compensated for everything.”“James,” Sarah’s voice was sharp, “you think I went too far? Have you looked at what

“You’re lying! How could the dean act without the board’s approval? Don’t forget, we’re members of the board!” Mrs. Chancer scolded, her tone sharp.Sarah didn’t even glance at her, replying flatly, “Have you forgotten? There’s another board member here.”The mention of Zachary immediately silenced Mrs. Chancer. She didn’t dare speak further.Charlotte stepped forward again, her tone soft and persuasive. “Ms. Sanders, this situation can be resolved easily. There’s no need to escalate it this far. The Chancer family won’t give up on Lucy. Why not take the high road and forgive them?”“Shut up!” Sarah snapped, her voice low but cutting. “What does this have to do with you? You’re not even part of the Chancer family, so stop telling me what to do. And by the way, you took my phone, didn’t you?”Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Stop playing dumb. I knew it was you the moment it went missing. I suggest you return my phone quickly—or throw it

Zachary gently placed Sarah into the car, settling her in the back seat before climbing into the driver’s seat himself.As the car started moving, Sarah took a closer look at her leg. After the ice pack treatment, the swelling had worsened, and her leg was now painfully puffy and red.Zachary gripped the steering wheel, his expression filled with guilt.The thermos had been his idea—he’d brought it to Sarah, filled with steaming hot water. If he hadn’t, perhaps none of this would have happened.The atmosphere inside the car was heavy, the air thick with tension. Sarah, sitting quietly in the back, could feel the weight of Zachary’s mood pressing down on her.“Zachary, what are you thinking about?” she asked, breaking the silence.Until now, he hadn’t shown this kind of expression, not even in the infirmary. Was it because of the Chancers?“I was thinking,” he said quietly, “if only I hadn’t brought that thermos today.”Sarah blinked, surprised. She hadn’t expected him to blame

Crash!The sound of a glass shattering on the floor broke the silence, startling both Sarah and Zachary.Sarah’s head snapped up, only to see Mia standing frozen, her eyes wide and mouth agape as she stared at Sarah’s swollen, injured leg.“Mia?” Sarah called softly.“Ah!” Mia let out a terrified scream, covering her ears as though shielding herself from something unbearable. She staggered backward in horror.“Help! Help!” she shrieked, her cries frantic and filled with pain. Then, in a bizarre twist, she began laughing hysterically. “Go away! Stay away! Leave me alone! Help! Sarah, don’t!”Her words were wild and scattered, as if she were seeing monsters no one else could see.Zachary’s brows furrowed deeply with worry. He quickly stepped forward to steady her. “Mia, it’s me.”But the sound of his voice seemed to trigger something far worse. Mia’s panic escalated into madness. Tears and snot ran freely down her face as she screamed.“Don’t come near me! Stay away! Help me!”

Lucy threw herself into James’s arms, sobbing hysterically. “James! Get me out of here! I can’t stand it! There’s no one to talk to in this awful place!”Mrs. Chancer’s heart ached as she looked at her daughter. “Lucy, your brother and I were so worried about you. The moment we heard you were in trouble, we went straight to that woman, but she refused to let you go no matter what! And that Zachary Reynolds, he’s clearly determined to protect Sarah. But what were you thinking, Lucy? How could you be so reckless? You dare provoke the Reynolds family!”“Mom! I know I was wrong, I really do! Please, get me out of here! If this news gets out tomorrow, everyone will know I was taken away by the police! How humiliating will that be? I can’t let that happen!” Lucy’s cries turned desperate. She clung to her mother’s clothes and James’s sleeve, sobbing uncontrollably.But no matter how much she pleaded, James’s face remained cold and unyielding as he looked at her.Panic flashed across Lucy’

Zachary thought for a moment. “No.”“Zachary, if Mia has another episode when she wakes up, I’ll call the hospital right away. I’ll also continue helping with her treatment,” Sarah said seriously.Zachary nodded. He trusted her completely.After everything that had happened, Sarah was utterly drained. She slumped back into the sofa, her breathing heavy.On top of the pain from her burns, a dull, twisting ache began forming in her lower stomach, like a sharp blade digging into her insides.She curled up slightly, clutching her abdomen tightly. Zachary noticed immediately.“Sarah, what’s wrong?”“My stomach…” she muttered weakly, sweat breaking out across her forehead. She didn’t have the energy to explain further.“Did you take your painkillers today?”“Not yet,” she managed.Zachary didn’t hesitate. He headed straight to the kitchen, pulling a bottle of prescribed pain medication from the cabinet. He poured a glass of warm water and set it on the counter before turning back t

James took a deep breath. "Yes, they took her daughter.""What now?""Head back first."James was at his wit's end. At home, his mother would question him endlessly, and even if he stayed away, her calls were constant.Worse still, he'd discovered the Reynolds were making moves, even targeting Chancer company stocks.Everything seemed inevitable. He put down his phone.At the university counseling center, Professor Wells brought flowers, and Dean Larson offered congratulations. Sarah's paper in the Psychology Journal was a milestone for the university.As she carried the flowers out the main gate, Lindsey and Steven joined her."Sarah, let's go to the resort!" Lindsey waved some tickets excitedly.Sarah knew the place - Lindsey had mentioned it at least five times before. The resort was less than a year old but already popular with VIPs and international guests.Sarah glanced at Zachary, knowing he must have arranged the tickets.Seeing her hesitate, Mia pulled her toward th

In the study, the tense atmosphere made Zachary uncomfortable. William sat at his mahogany desk, working on his art, not even glancing up.After what felt like forever, he finished and set down his brush. "What's been keeping you so busy lately?""Just business matters.”"Business? Seems more like romance. I don't oppose relationships, but you should know about this woman's history." William looked concerned.Zachary smiled wryly. "Grandfather, I know Sarah better than anyone. Don't listen to gossip."William chuckled. "How would you know?"Zachary shrugged. "If nobody had complained to you, why this sudden summons?""Indeed, someone sent me some troubling emails."Zachary remained silent. William probably didn't believe the rumors. He was likely just testing him."Your personal life is your business. Make your own choices. You can go." William waved him away.After the academic scandal, Sarah signed with the Psychology Journal, publishing her research.This caused quite a s

"Ahem, Mia..." Sarah said awkwardly.The voice on the phone cut off abruptly. Seconds later, Sarah's phone rang."Sarah, are you feeling better? I was just joking earlier, don't take it seriously," Mia said timidly.Sarah laughed softly. "Much better. The fever's gone.""That's good, that's good. I'll hang up now."After her IV finished and she'd eaten her porridge, she took a nap. When she woke, she found Zachary dozing, his chin propped on his hand.He must be exhausted after bringing her here at dawn and watching over her so long.His sleeping face looked softer, less sharp. His eyelashes were long and thick. She reached out to touch them - so soft.She traced his nose, his cheeks, his lips that had kissed her several times.She'd wanted to do this since that night when he'd touched her lips.Suddenly his eyes opened. As she tried to pull back, he caught her hand. "Weren't you asleep?" she asked, breathing quickly."Light sleeper." He'd been awake since she opened her eye

She was just a university counselor who'd moved on after her divorce.Suddenly, she laughed at herself. When had she become so insecure? She used to be confident and vibrant like Mia, but now...Zachary sat down, putting the apple back in her hand, looking directly into her eyes. "This isn't a game. I'm serious. I thought you could feel that."His gaze burned with intensity. "Sarah, tell me, what kind of person do you think you are?"Sarah stumbled over her words. "I...""What kind of person?" Zachary kept staring, as if trying to burn through her defenses."Like James's mother said - a divorced woman with a bad reputation." Sarah laughed bitterly.Zachary shook his head, his eyes turning cold. "Do you believe that?"Believe it?Why should she?James was the one with the bad reputation.Society was always harder on women. Divorced women faced more prejudice than men. When Mrs. Chancer said those things, she'd wanted to ask if she wasn't a woman herself."Of course not," Sar

James finally looked at Charlotte. She’s right, what was wrong with him?Why was he so obsessed? He loved Charlotte - the woman he'd always wanted was right beside him. What else could he want?He pulled Charlotte into his arms, breathing in her light jasmine perfume.Suddenly, a memory flashed: Sarah walking into their room, quietly bringing him tea, her hair still damp from the shower, water droplets on her nightgown making her look irresistible.He saw himself coldly taking the tea, ignoring her.Sarah playfully leaning her head on his shoulder, deliberately letting him smell her hair. "Do you like my new shampoo?" she'd asked excitedly.He'd pushed her away emotionlessly. "Don't bother me. Learn your place," before heading to his study."I'm sorry," James blurted out.Charlotte startled, thinking he was apologizing to her. She wrapped her arms around his neck, tearful. "James, I don't blame you. I love you so much. Please don't let me down."James snapped back to reality
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 187
James caught Zachary's expression and fell silent, Charlotte’s words bringing him back to reality.In his anger, he'd almost forgotten who he was dealing with."Sarah, I can make Lucy apologize and compensate you. Name your price - I'll try to meet it."Sarah looked at James coldly, her voice icy. "No need. Please leave."James's face fell. Charlotte and Mrs. Chancer paled - they hadn't expected such firm resistance."Fine, have it your way. Don't come crying to us later." Mrs. Chancer shot Sarah a venomous look.Outside the hospital, James brooded over his humiliation. "We knew she wouldn't agree to a deal. Why did we even come?"The visit had been his mother's idea. She glared at him. "Are you blaming me? I'm just trying to help! I thought since she used to love you so much, a few kind words might work. Who knew she'd land such a powerful man? She already looked down on us - now we're nothing to her."Mrs. Chancer kept muttering as they walked. "What luck, snagging the Reynol
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 186
Charlotte watched James's reaction with barely concealed anger."You're the shameless one! We came here to make peace. Isn't money what you want? Weren't the millions and the villa enough? Name your price to let Lucy go!" Mrs. Chancer glared at Sarah."That settlement was what James owed me. And no, I won't make a deal.""You think your refusal matters?" Mrs. Chancer stepped forward, sneering. "Don't think the Reynolds will protect you forever. Someone like Zachary could never love you. He's just playing around - don't flatter yourself. He hasn't even gone public about you.""What exactly are you saying to my girlfriend?" A cold voice cut through the room.Zachary walked in with breakfast, set it down, and moved to Sarah's side. He looked at Mrs. Chancer with contempt. "The Chancers seem overconfident lately. How's that Vista International deal going?"James flinched. Vista was a Fortune 500 company expanding into their market. They'd initially partnered with Reynolds Enterprises

She looked nervously at Zachary. Had she mistaken?"Yes, you can go now."After the nurse left, Sarah glared at Zachary. "You... you just...""What did I do? You heard what she said?" Zachary gave her a knowing look.He even licked his lips, making Sarah turn away in embarrassment, pulling the hospital blanket over as she rolled to face the window.How mortifying - being caught like that, and now the nurse thought they were a couple.Her face felt hotter than her fever.Worse still, Zachary moved to her other side, still smiling.Knowing she could barely move, she swung weakly at his shoulder, the slap echoing surprisingly loud in the quiet room."Why didn't you dodge!""Didn't hurt at all,” Zachary smiled softly, then stepped away to answer his phone.His expression darkened after hanging up.Sarah noticed the change. "What's wrong?""They've taken Grace Harrison’s daughter." Zachary's face was grim.Sarah froze. Lucy had just been arrested, and now Grace's daughter was

Opening Sarah's bedroom door, his heart nearly stopped at the sight of her.When he touched her, she was burning hot.Without wasting time, he rushed her to the hospital.From 2 AM until after 5, her fever finally broke. He hadn't dared sleep, anxiously watching the IV drip while constantly monitoring her condition."You're not leaving the hospital again." Zachary's tone left no room for argument.Sarah could tell from his expression that he was furious."Thanks for the trouble," she said with an awkward laugh.This made Zachary even angrier. 'Thanks for the trouble' - why was she always so distant?"Trouble? Don't ever say that again." Zachary suddenly leaned closer to Sarah.Startled, she shrank back. "Don't get too close. You'll catch my cold."She covered her mouth, coughing several times.But Zachary didn't move away. Instead, he studied her intently. Her beautiful eyes avoided his gaze, making her look adorable.Suddenly, he felt an urge - a strange feeling. Looking a
