Mrs. Chancer watched Sarah smugly, waiting to see how she would respond.Sarah pointed at Scott, "Dr. Rogers is a recently returned psychology PhD with many achievements and well-known papers and theories. As a counselor myself, of course I'm interested in his work."The man mentioned smiled faintly and stood up graciously, extending his hand, "Miss Sanders, pleased to meet you."Sarah shook his hand, "Mr. Rogers, sorry you had to witness this scene."Charlotte tugged on James's arm, "Let's set that aside for now. Since I invited Miss Sanders, I'm more concerned about the torn wedding photo and marriage certificate."After placing the first photo on the table, she produced a second one - this one was even worse, with the eyes blackened out and a lipstick X drawn across the mouth.Mrs. Garnett was indignant, "Sarah, how could you do something so terrible!"James frowned deeply, "Sarah, I never thought you were this kind of person.""It's simple to prove whether I went upstairs o

"Six o'clock exactly! It was exactly six!" Charlotte insisted firmly."You're wrong. I went to the restroom at 6:10," Sarah stated matter-of-factly.Charlotte stared at her in disbelief, "That's impossible! The server told me you left your seat at six exactly."Lucy anxiously cut in, "Sister-in-law, maybe the server got the time wrong? Either way, she snuck into your lounge while you were in the bathroom."Charlotte shot Lucy a stern look - what a brainless thing to say. But since it was already out there, she steeled herself and quickly added, "Miss Sanders, I can't give you an exact time. After all, who checks the time when they go to the bathroom?"Sarah nodded, "True, they wouldn't. But this is your wedding day, and your makeup artist seemed quite certain about the timing?""I'm saying maybe the server got the time wrong, but you were the only one who left after I exited the lounge. The server saw you go to the lounge - that can't be a lie, can it? Among everyone here, I can'

James and Charlotte simultaneously glared at Lucy - so she was behind this."Sasa, I've made reservations at St. Ritz. The food here looks unappetizing. Let's go."He extended his hand to Sarah, who took it."You can't leave! This isn't settled!" Lucy shouted.Seeing them about to leave, she rushed forward.Zachary and Sarah looked at her impatiently, "Shouldn't you be in the mental hospital?"Fury flashed in Lucy's eyes, but she forced a smile."Mr. Reynolds, it's my brother and sister-in-law's wedding day. Won't you stay for the meal?"She tucked her hair behind her ear with feigned shyness, revealing an elegant ear with sparkling earrings catching the light on her cheek.Mr. Reynolds, why follow that worthless woman?Lucy waited quietly for his reaction, confident that if she could just interact with him, she could make him fall for her!But after a long moment, Zachary didn't even glance at her."You're in the way."She grabbed Sarah angrily, "You can't leave! You tore

"Sasa!""Hello, Miss Sanders.”Before she could react, Mia pushed her into Zachary's passenger seat, while Mia herself squeezed into Steven's car.As they drove along the highway, Steven's car suddenly shot ahead. Mia leaned out the window, waving at Sarah, "Sarah! We don't want to be third wheels!"Scarlett called out too, "I just found out about this! How could you not tell me! I won't forgive you!"Sarah didn't know whether to laugh or cry - Scarlett had already sent her dozens of accusatory messages:"Sarah, you abandoned our friendship for a man!""You didn't tell me you were with Mr. Reynolds! You're in trouble!""I'm a Scorpio! I hold grudges, and I'll remember this forever!""You didn't tell me when you got hurt last time, and now this! I'm not speaking to you for a day!"As they crossed a high bridge, a cool sea breeze carried the salty air toward them.Sarah's eyes widened as she finally saw the true scale of the resort - it was an entire island, accessible only by

Sarah collected various sea creatures - starfish, crabs, and even sea snails.Zachary walked up to her, holding the bucket in one hand. His lips parted softly, "Hold out your hand.""What?" Sarah looked at him puzzled."Hold out your hand," Zachary repeated.Sarah extended her hand tentatively, ready to pull back.Zachary placed his closed fist over her palm and dropped something cool into it.A seashell."I found it."Sarah looked at the shell - it was pink with rippling patterns."It's beautiful." She tucked it into her pocket.In the distance, Mia was gazing out, watching Zachary and Sarah together.The two stood by the sea as sunset colors gradually descended, bathing them in orange-red light. It reminded her of romantic scenes from novels she'd read - that's exactly how her brother and Sarah looked."What are you looking at, Mia?" Scarlett put her hand on Mia's shoulder, following her gaze."Looking at my brother and Sarah. I feel like I've seen this scene before, lik

Zachary cleared his throat, more serious than he'd ever been, "Sasa, I don't mind. You know that doesn't matter to me.""I'm not upset because of Charlotte. This world is deeply hostile to women. At yesterday's wedding, everyone's first reaction upon seeing me was that I'm James's ex-wife. They assumed I must have come with bad intentions, must have come to cause trouble. But everyone forgot that James was the main character of this wedding - no one thought of him as Sarah's ex-husband. Even without proper evidence, they were ready to blame everything on me based purely on stereotypes."Zachary pulled Sarah into an embrace, "Sasa, I will protect you.""I know." Sarah's expression softened.Zachary was the only one who had promised to protect her and actually followed through.“Zac! Sarah! Come cook with us, I'm hungry!""Oh! Did I come at a bad time?"Mia froze in place, about to turn back, but Sarah called out to her."Mia, your timing is perfect. I'm hungry too." She pulled M

Finally, Sarah carefully pushed Scarlett's mushroom back to her, "Scarlett, why don't you try it first?""What is it?" She took a bite and her face turned the color of liver. "Blech! It's awful!"Steven looked at her smugly, "Try mine."Scarlett glared at him, "Mrs. Watsons must have given me the wrong recipe. I won't accept this, and I'm not eating yours!"She turned her head away, but the garlic aroma kept tempting her nose.Mia sat next to her, enthusiastically munching on the mushrooms, her eyes sparkling with delight.Scarlett wondered how good they must taste.She'd had Steven's cooking before - it was truly exceptional. But eating it would mean admitting defeat.But it smelled so good, making her mouth water.She couldn't resist anymore!She grabbed the mushroom skewer and took a bite.It was delicious! Damn, Steven had won.Steven grinned triumphantly, "Told you so.""Don't get cocky. You're a chef - of course you can cook."Sarah stifled a laugh, then noticed a g

Though Zachary didn't understand why she brought this up, he nodded - it happened to him occasionally."I just experienced it. Walking with you by the sea, watching the stars, feeling the sea breeze on my face - I feel like this has happened before, more than once." Sarah's eyes held a trace of confusion.Déjà vu wasn't enough to describe what she felt. The phantom memory wasn't just visual but emotional - she could even feel the warmth of that hand and catch whiffs of cedar fragrance from her memory.An indescribable feeling lingered in her chest, like a hungry person finding bread - simultaneously empty and full, hollow yet complete.She laughed behind her hand, "Maybe it's because it's you walking beside me. This is my first time walking with you by the sea, so it feels familiar."Zachary tried to speak several times but couldn't find the words.Sarah pulled him along to continue walking, while he could only grip her small hand tightly, watching her back guiltily as time stret

Sarah didn't respond to Zachary's earlier words—she simply moved with even more care as she cleaned and bandaged his wound. Her eyes stayed fixed on the task at hand, but her expression was unreadable.Zachary, watching her in silence, gave a soft laugh. "You do care about me, Sasa. No matter what you say, you're not as heartless as you pretend to be."Sarah shook her head, her voice calm but cool. "You're overthinking it. We're both from East Coast—I just don't want to see you die. Besides, you're getting engaged to Miss Wilson in just over half a month. I’m clear of our positions. So please, don't say things like that again."Zachary's face changed instantly. He knew she was right—his engagement to Vivian was a chasm between them, one that he couldn't just leap across. Not while the truth remained buried.That engagement wasn't just a label. It was a shield. A smokescreen. A compromise he'd made to protect Sarah. But knowing she believed it, that it stood between them, only deepe

Charlie felt a chill run down his spine from that single glance. Considering her status, he dared not push any further. "That's all I have to say. The rest is up to you to figure out."He fled the scene, leaving Sarah alone in the room.After washing up, she lay on the bed and checked her emails. Her cousin had sent her updates on the construction progress at Pine Mist Island.Once she finished handling her affairs, Sarah tucked herself under the covers and closed her eyes, trying to sleep, but rest eluded her.Her mind was filled with what Charlie had said about Zachary being injured. He was hurt, and she had no idea how serious the wound was.If it was severe, he would need hospital treatment, which would certainly leave a record and expose his location.If he didn't want his whereabouts known, he would have to treat the injury himself at home.But that wound...Sarah couldn't calm her thoughts. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.Under the bright moonlight, a figu

After the doctor left, Charlie yanked out his IV and clambered off the bed, urging Zachary, "Let's get out of here. This place just drains you dry."Zachary, indifferent since his injuries were feigned, asked, "Your injuries alright?"Charlie, ever so casual about his resilience, boasted, "Ah, I've been roughed up worse before. Just give me a couple of days to rest at home, and I'll be as good as new."With unresolved matters and a longing to see Sarah, Zachary reluctantly set aside his desires. "Then you head back. Call me if you need anything."Charlie, sensing something off, gently tugged at Zachary's suit and noticed his white shirt stained with fresh blood. "Zach, you're hurt!"Zachary's lips were pale, his voice dry. "Yeah.""I'll get the doctor to bandage you up," Charlie said, moving to leave."No need," Zachary stopped him quickly, not wanting to expose his whereabouts by registering at the hospital."What about your wound?""I have a first aid kit at home. It's just

Zachary dragged the unconscious Charlie to the clinic, exacerbating Charlie's injuries as his back scraped against the small stones on the road.When Charlie woke up in the clinic, his howls filled the room. "It's killing me! Where's the doctor? Give me some anesthesia. I'd rather be out cold!"The nurse, irritated by his constant demands, was about to lose her patience when Zachary entered the room. Seeing him, Charlie momentarily forgot his pain and burst into tears. "Bro, did you save me? From now on, you're like a brother to me."Zachary responded indifferently, "Just focus on healing."As the nurse changed Charlie's bandages, she couldn't help but blush at Zachary's rugged, yet undeniably handsome appearance, even slightly disheveled from the fight."Damn it, get out! Are you doing this on purpose, you wretch? Trying to kill me?" Charlie slapped her, swelling her face, as he misunderstood her distracted clumsiness for malice.Zachary frowned, saying nothing. Although he disl

With an agile flip through the air, Zachary caught sight of Charlie sneaking a peek from behind a haystack, his sleazy demeanor perfectly deserving of a beating. The thought of what this scoundrel had done to Sarah intensified Zachary's fury, already heightened by the fierce combat.On the other side, the casino manager watched in rage as his men were effortlessly knocked down by Zachary. Cursing loudly, he shouted, "Damn it, what's the story with this kid?"Seeing some of his underlings still looking for an opportunity to strike, his anger boiled over. "Are you all brainless? Attack him all at once; I refuse to believe he can fight off everyone!"Those still standing and those who had managed to get back up exchanged glances and charged at Zachary with renewed ferocity.Zachary's sharp eyes flashed with disdain. Without moving, his fist met an attacker's face at an extraordinarily tricky angle.The attacker's pained expression froze mid-air, and when he hit the ground, dust flew

Charlie's voice cut off abruptly as he stared in horror behind Zachary, his body beginning to tremble. Before he could speak, the casino manager had already set up a blockade on the road and rushed over with his men, ambushing them from both sides."Charlie, you think you're pretty clever, conniving with outsiders to cheat me out of my money?" the casino manager sneered, twirling an iron rod menacingly.Charlie's legs gave out, and he fell to his knees, stuttering, "Bro, what are you talking about? How could I dare cheat you? I don't have the guts.""Stop lying to me," the manager bellowed, pointing the iron rod toward a visibly unmoved Zachary. "This pretty boy, you've been colluding with him to cheat on my turf. Sick of living, are you?""No, it's all a misunderstanding! We were gambling fair and square, no cheating!" Charlie was terrified, fearing a brutal beating was imminent.The manager scoffed, "You think I'm blind?"Sweat poured down Charlie's forehead as he desperately l

”Come on… Come on…” Charlie leaned over the long table, his eyes crazed as he watched the dealer's movements. The dealer placed his hand over the dice cup, his voice stirring the gamblers, "Any more bets? The odds are thirty to one now." As soon as he finished speaking, a burly man with a scruffy beard shoved most of his chips forward. "Damn it, I'm all in. Worst comes to worst, I'll con some more out of my old lady's funeral fund." Others, eyes reddened, quickly followed suit.Charlie clenched his yellowed teeth, tempted to go all in too. He glanced at Zachary, who had remained calm throughout, and rubbed his hands together with a sycophantic smile. "Bro, should we make a big play too?"Zachary gave him a brief glance. "What's the rush." Charlie had no choice but to curb his eagerness."Here it goes!" The dealer shouted, and the outcome was revealed, triggering moans of despair around them."Did we win? Did we actually win?" Charlie rubbed his eyes in disbelief, his smile wideni

Charlie pulled her close. "When have I not thought about you? Anyway, I've got things to do tomorrow. I'll come see you again later." He got dressed as the woman watched him reluctantly. Just as he opened the door to leave, another woman suddenly appeared in front of him."Molly, I've come—Oh? What are you doing here? Isn't this Mr. Wesley? What are you doing at Molly's house in the middle of the night instead of sleeping at home?"She saw Charlie adjusting his clothes and knew exactly what had been going on."Cut the crap, I'm leaving now. If anyone finds out about today, you're done for," Charlie snapped.The woman wasn't intimidated. She dramatically fell to her knees, crying out loud, "Oh dear! Everyone come and see how this man is threatening me, saying he'll kill me! He's not sleeping at his home in the middle of the night but is here at Molly's—who knows what they were up to? Now that I've caught him, he's not retreating but threatening me instead! Everyone come over and jud
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 633
Back at the Wesley place, Charlie shut the front door with a meaningful smirk as his parents had already gone to bed. He cleared the dining table and retreated to his room. Alone, his thoughts turned to what he imagined would happen between Zachary and Sarah, and he couldn't help but snicker to himself. This time, he felt he had finally done Zachary a favor by orchestrating the situation. After this, he was sure Zachary would owe him one, especially in his gambling endeavors.Once something happened between Sarah and Zachary, Charlie thought he would have significant leverage over Sarah—she wouldn't dare cross him, not even in front of the factory manager. Yet, the thought of their imminent encounter left him feeling an unexplained emptiness, especially since the woman he usually pushed around had defiantly returned to her mother's house after yesterday's beating. How dare she act differently when every other woman in the town bore their circumstances silently?Why was it acceptable
