Was it because of the person he picked up from the airport? Who was that person?“Sasa, I had something very important to handle that day, so I missed your calls,” Zachary explained.Sarah gave him a faint smile. “Something very important? What was it?”“A friend returned from abroad,” he replied.“Who is this friend? Who were you with?” Sarah pushed herself up slightly, confusion clear in her eyes.Zachary hesitated before saying, “Our families have known each other for generations. I’m sorry. If I’d known this would happen, I would have—”“Would have what? Been more careful? Spent less time with your childhood sweetheart? I get it. You can leave now.” Sarah’s gaze turned icy, her tone cutting.It all made sense now. James had been like this, and Zachary was no different.No wonder Melvin had always warned her that Zachary wasn’t trustworthy and had told her to stay away. Now, she realized she had been blind to the truth.Maybe Melvin had known about Zachary’s childhood sweet

Since the kidnapping, Mia’s condition had worsened—she didn’t speak at all anymore.After being discharged from the hospital, Sarah never brought up Zachary again, which surprised Melvin.Late at night, when the world was quiet, Sarah tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. This was different from when James had asked for a divorce. Back then, her emotions had been anger and defiance.But now, it felt like her heart was being ripped apart.As she lay there in pain, she heard faint noises coming from the room next door.What was Mia doing?Getting out of bed, she walked to Mia’s room. The door was ajar, and she saw Mia’s back as she slowly walked farther into the room.“Mia?” she called softly.Mia didn’t respond. Suddenly, the faint light in the room glinted off something cold and sharp. A chill ran down Sarah’s spine.Without thinking, she stepped into the room. As she approached Mia, her breath caught at the horrifying sight before her.Mia was holding a large kitc

"No! Mia, she..." Sarah knew something was wrong with Mia's condition. Over the past few years, Zachary had sought help from many people to treat Mia, but nothing worked.She couldn't give up, especially since Mia only recognized her during her episodes.Looking at Sarah's eyes, Melvin understood her decision. "I won't pressure you. Take your time to think it through."“Melvin, thank you,” Sarah replied sincerely.At the Chancer residence.James had been worried about Sarah. He didn't know she had left until he asked Dean Larson, who confirmed that Sarah had indeed left and taken time off.Putting his phone back on the table, James let out a sigh of relief. Charlotte walked out of the bathroom just in time to see James setting down his phone, and her thoughts immediately went to Sarah.The last time she took James to visit her parents, they were upset because he left abruptly.She couldn't understand why James still cared so much about Sarah's affairs, even though Sarah had sai

"Have you lost your mind? I suggested a psychiatrist because your emotions have been unstable lately. Do you really think this is normal?" James asked with furrowed brows.Charlotte looked up at James, seeing complexity in his eyes, but no love.She laughed bitterly, "Of course I'm not normal. You hide in your study every night, smoking and sighing. When I was cleaning your study, I found papers written all over with Sarah's name. And you've been secretly calling Sarah. Isn't that enough?"James froze, realizing she knew everything.He lowered his head apologetically. He had written Sarah's name while trying to think of places she might have gone after her disappearance. After racking his brain and coming up with only a few places, he'd found himself unconsciously writing her name over and over.Under the bright lights, Charlotte watched him with a pained heart.His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly pulled Charlotte into his arms."I'm sorry. It's my fault for not being there

Sarah looked at the gold-embossed lettering on the red invitation and nodded slightly. She had been too depressed lately, falling into dark moods because of Zachary, Mia, and that childhood friend who suddenly appeared.Perhaps it was time for a change."Let's bring Mia along," she said.Melvin nodded. "Alright."At the South Pavilion Club.Few people knew the club's name or location. Its mystique in East Coast was maintained by its extremely strict membership rules.The auction was always the club's most important event. The items came from around the world, and no one questioned their origins.Membership was tiered, with each member allowed to bring two guests.Sarah was dressed casually today, not typical for an auction - just a simple dress she'd thrown on.Mia was similarly dressed. The two of them looked out of place following behind Melvin in his formal suit.Everyone else wore formal attire, competing to show off their most expensive and elegant clothes.James and Ch

Sarah turned pale, her chest seized with pain as if her heart was being torn out."Miss Sanders, I'm Vivian Wilson. I grew up with the Reynolds, Mia is like a sister to me," Vivian said with a gentle smile, extending her hand.Sarah shook her hand. "I've heard of you."Vivian excitedly turned to Zachary, "This must be Mia's psychiatrist? Zachary, you two must know each other well?"Before Zachary could speak, Sarah cut in, "Miss Wilson, we're not close."She searched his eyes for any trace of warmth, but found only coldness.She nearly lost her balance, grateful for Mia's presence behind her.Zachary clenched his fists tightly. He wanted to embrace Sarah, but with Vivian watching, he could only stand there, fighting his impulse.Vivian looked at Sarah with concern, "Miss Sanders, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"Sarah shook her head. "I'm fine.""Thank you for taking care of Mia. Zachary must treat you to dinner. Steven's cooking is delicious - I haven't had it in ag

When the fourth auction item appeared, all the women in the room gasped. No one could resist diamonds, especially this purple one.Every wealthy lady present knew the value of colored diamonds. The world's largest known purple diamond was seven carats, and this one was six and a half.Charlotte's eyes sparkled at it. Lucy was mesmerized too, tugging at James's arm, "James, this diamond is beautiful. You have to buy it for me."Charlotte gripped her dress hem, pressing her lips together.In the front row, Vivian also noticed the necklace. She excitedly said to Zachary, "Zachary, this necklace would suit me, right?"Zachary thought of the pink diamond from the last auction. This purple diamond was by the same designer, both famous pieces.He nodded dismissively.Sarah touched her neck, glad she hadn't worn the necklace Zachary had given her."This is an extremely rare purple diamond necklace. Starting bid is 10 million."Melvin raised his paddle. "20 million."Sarah looked up a

In the bathroom, she splashed cold water on her face to regain composure. Despite what her subconscious told her, she couldn't forget the scene of Zachary and Vivian laughing together - the jealousy in her eyes.Why did they always do this - first James, now Zachary.Outside the bathroom, she leaned against the wall by the auction hall doors, reluctant to go back in.Sitting down meant watching Vivian's intimacy with him."Why aren't you going in?" James suddenly appeared.Sarah hadn't expected to see him. She gave a bitter smile. "Just getting some air.""What's going on with you and Zachary?" James couldn't help asking.Sarah shook her head. "It's exactly what you see."If even James noticed something was wrong, surely Charlotte and Lucy had too."Did you two fight?" James asked again.Sarah looked at him puzzled. "Mr. Chancer, this isn't your business. Your wife is inside - it wouldn't look good if she saw us. I don't want to start more rumors."James felt embarrassed but

Fresh from the gambling den, Charlie was ecstatic, clutching a bundle of cash and laughing wildly. "Zach, we won thirty thousand! Can you believe they just let us walk out?"He found it unbelievable, but Zach seemed unfazed. They hadn't just taken the house; they'd also won a considerable amount from other gamblers, and even helped the house make a profit. It was no wonder they weren't stopped.Holding the money, Charlie mused, "Zach, you wouldn’t believe it. The rich just keep getting richer. Today, our factory received a shipment of equipment, and I heard just one machine costs millions. Compared to them, this thirty thousand really isn't much."Zach casually mentioned, "It seems like the Sanders factory is the only big one left around here."Charlie quickly retorted with a smirk, "Actually, in West Ridge, Sanders isn’t the biggest."Zach raised an eyebrow, "Really? I thought I knew West Ridge pretty well. Apart from Sanders, I haven’t seen any factory bigger than theirs."Char

Charlie finally got it—Manager Sullivan was forcing him to take on this task. He gritted his teeth and determinedly agreed, "Manager, I'll do it."Manager Sullivan smiled approvingly, "That's the spirit! Good employees like you are what this factory needs. Don't worry, the higher-ups won't let your efforts go unrewarded. If you pull this off, you could be looking at a bonus of several thousand."Charlie nodded, "Tonight, then?"Manager Sullivan's expression grew serious as he nodded back, "Yes, tonight."That afternoon, Charlie clocked out and went straight to find Zachary. He couldn’t go back to the old gambling den—they had made a mess last time and were probably blacklisted. As for the money he owed, Charlie didn’t care anymore. After all, they had won a lot last time only to have it stolen, which he figured squared things. Still, that didn't stop him from wanting to gamble again.Just a few days later, he found Zachary and even brought what he considered a fine cigar.As for

Outside the Sanders factory, several trucks were parked at the entrance. Sarah followed Manager Sullivan and Mr. Lambert, watching the unloading process. "Manager Sullivan, all this new equipment has arrived today, right from the headquarters' stock, and it's too late to ship from Germany now," Sarah observed, her voice serious.Mr. Lambert smiled, "I didn't expect you to handle this so quickly, Miss Sanders. It's only been a few days since you went to headquarters to file a complaint, and you've already got the equipment here.""It's all for the good of the factory," Sarah replied, her face still stern. "So, Manager Sullivan, the factory can operate normally now, right? Getting the production line back up is inevitable."Manager Sullivan's expression wasn't much happier; he hadn't expected Sarah to pull this off so quickly. He forced a smile, "Of course."As the equipment was moved into the factory, Manager Sullivan returned to his office, wiping sweat from his brow with his handk

Sarah was puzzled. "An explosion at such a critical moment would make anyone suspicious, wouldn't it? It looks like someone's trying to cover something up."Zachary nodded, his face showing disdain. "You're not the only one who thought so. But Old Mr. Wilson presented the last batch of drugs from their factory, which were supposed to be delivered to hospitals. The tests came back clean, and they claimed the explosion was due to a mishandling of ingredients."Sarah raised an eyebrow. "And everyone just bought that?""Yes, everyone did.""So, you want to prove the explosion wasn't an accident and use that to bring down the Wilson family?" Sarah asked softly.Zachary's face paled; he shook his head slightly. "It's not just that. I want to do more, but..."Sarah shrugged, as if she was used to this kind of talk. "Let me guess, the timing isn't right yet?"Zachary looked at her sincerely. "Sarah, I'm really glad you came to help me with my wounds. When the time is right, I'll come to
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 641
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
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 637
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
