Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 425
Sarah called out weakly, "Zachary!"The Cayenne's windows were shattered, its door deeply dented.The airbags had deployed, pinning Zachary inside."Zachary! Wake up!"After countless calls, Zachary finally opened his eyes and tried to move.Moving in the airbag-filled cabin wasn't easy, and he felt intense pain in his thigh.His voice was hoarse, ”Sasa, I'm okay. Are you?"In that moment, Sarah forgot everything else, her eyes welling up as she looked at him. "I'm fine. How can you get out?""Did you call for help?" Zachary asked.Sarah took out her phone but found no signal. She couldn't make an emergency call."No signal." Her phone had been intermittent on the bridge too.Of the cars chasing her, one had gone over the cliff and the other was flipped. Both must have had signal jammers installed.Sarah looked at Zachary - his upper body was compressed by the airbags, his lower half completely trapped underneath."Get out quickly," Sarah's voice trembled.Zachary forced

She remained silent, her eyes revealing no emotion.Zachary gave a bitter smile. "Go. I know you don't want to help me. Just leave. Be careful of Vivian after you get out - I suspect she's behind this. Sasa, she's far more dangerous than you imagine."This was his final warning, yet Sarah still didn't speak.His heart felt like it had been stabbed twice. The moon still hung in the sky, drifting westward.In the darkness, Sarah suddenly looked up, her eyes brimming with tears that now streamed down her face."Zachary, never say things like that again.""Which things?" Zachary asked.Sarah smiled through her tears: "Telling me to leave you.""Hah, how could I possibly leave you!"Sarah found a metal rod in her car's trunk, wedged it against the door, and forced it open with all her strength.She finally saw Zachary's leg clearly - trapped and covered in bloody marks."Zachary!" she cried out.Zachary smiled wryly. "I wasn't lying. My leg needs proper rescue. I have to rely on

"Ah, you're awake?" Zachary coughed twice. "Where's Sarah?"Steven kept typing without looking up. "Don't worry, Miss Sanders only had minor injuries, no need for hospitalization."Zachary took a breath. "Did you tell Grandfather?"He remembered seeing his grandfather's missed calls before passing out, but his phone had died.Steven nodded repeatedly. "I've told everyone. I told Mr. Reynolds you only had minor injuries, so he wouldn't worry.""Did Sarah go home? When did she leave?" Zachary's expression was complex.Steven's face twitched slightly. "Miss Sanders stayed with you for a long time, only left an hour ago."Zachary felt concerned. Sarah had rescued him and supported him for so long - her endurance had been far greater than his.Joy flickered across his face. "So she still cares about me."Steven sighed. "I really don't understand you two. If you're truly this devoted, why did you treat Miss Sanders that way when Vivian returned?"Zachary gave a self-mocking smile.
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 428
"She was running out of time. Her grandfather had given her one month to resolve the Zachary situation - he needed them to get engaged to complete their plans.Sarah's presence by Zachary's side was unexpected.Before returning home, she had never considered Sarah a threat, thinking she was just someone who kept Zachary company while she was away.But now things had progressed to this point, she couldn't tell if Sarah was just a distraction for Zachary or someone he truly loved.She only knew that to fulfill her grandfather's wishes, Sarah had to be eliminated.Once she disappeared, Zachary would naturally return to her side.She composed herself as Mr. Wilson entered."When things go wrong, you just throw tantrums. Have you forgotten everything I taught you? You failed again?” Mr. Wilson's expression was grave.Vivian nodded painfully - she had finally caught an opportunity."Is that girl so hard to deal with? How did she even manage to escape?" Mr. Wilson said admiringly.H

The sunlight bathed her in a golden glow, making the fine hairs on her skin shimmer with a soft radiance. This peaceful moment felt so perfect that Zachary wished time would just stop here forever.Suddenly, a distant cry broke the silence. Sarah snapped back to reality and listened carefully before turning to Zachary with a puzzled expression. “Did you hear that?”Zachary focused and listened intently. Sure enough, there was a faint wailing sound. He nodded in confirmation.Sarah stood up, scanning her surroundings. Finally, behind a tree, she spotted a woman lying on the ground, crying.She rushed over immediately. “Are you okay? What’s wrong?”The woman’s voice was hoarse as she gasped, “I’m going into labor—please help me!”Labor? Sarah’s face turned pale. The woman was pregnant!She glanced down and noticed that the woman’s pants were completely soaked—her water had broken.Without hesitation, Sarah sprinted away to find a doctor and nurse.Thankfully, she managed to get

So that was a refusal? Sarah chuckled. “That’s fine. You don’t have to draw if you don’t want to. But in that case, I’ll have to take a little trip to your home.” She gestured toward the door. “And of course, I’ll be bringing them along.” David sucked in a sharp breath. His grip tightened around the pen, and after a long hesitation, he finally placed the tip on the paper. But he didn’t know where to start. “Start with your family,” Sarah prompted gently. After a moment’s pause, David drew three figures—a woman, a man, and a little girl. “Now, add a house, a large tree, and a car on the road,” Sarah instructed, guiding him step by step. He still had no idea what Sarah was trying to accomplish, but he had already realized that refusal was pointless. Resigned, he followed her directions, sketching a house, a road, and a car. As Sarah examined the drawing, a rare softness flickered in her gaze when she looked at the house and the people. But the moment her eyes land

Vivian felt a deep sense of disappointment. Was this what things had come to between her and Zachary? “I don’t know yet,” Zachary replied coldly. “But I’ll find out who’s behind it.” Vivian quickly unfolded the small table and took out the soup from the thermos. “Try it. I made it myself.” A faint blush appeared on her cheeks. Remembering his grandfather’s words, Zachary didn’t refuse. He took a sip, then put the spoon down. “It’s good.” Vivian smiled sweetly. “If you like it, I can make it for you more often.” Then, as if casually, she added, “Zachary, Grandpa asked me about us today. He said he discussed it with your grandfather, and if you have no objections, we can get engaged first.” Zachary’s expression darkened. “Vivian, I’ve only ever seen you as a sister.” “But I don’t see you as a brother,” she countered, her voice trembling slightly. “Zac, all these years… I thought you knew how I felt.” Her heart pounded anxiously. How could Zachary reject her?

Sarah turned and left the hospital, her eyes cold and unreadable. In the Courtroom.Sarah and Melvin sat in the plaintiff’s seats, watching as Charlotte took her place in the defendant’s chair. She remained completely at ease, her expression almost amused, as if she were attending a casual business meeting rather than a criminal trial. Sarah didn’t understand why Charlotte looked so unfazed, but she knew one thing for certain—the Chancer family must have paid a hefty price to try and shield her from the consequences of her actions. The judge’s voice rang out. “Plaintiff’s attorney, you may question the witness.” The lawyer sitting beside Sarah stood and approached Kelvin Luther, who had just completed his oath. “Mr. Luther,” the attorney began, “is it true that Miss Charlotte approached your son, Michael Luther, at Luther Enterprises and instructed him to set up and rape my client?” Kelvin cleared his throat. “Yes, that’s correct. It was Charlotte.” Despite his da

“Zachary?”Sarah didn’t push him away. She just found his behavior today strangely out of character.She had never seen Zachary like this before. Even when she thought back to everything that had happened between them, the only time she had ever seen him truly broken was at the cemetery. He had stood there, dressed in a black suit, in front of his mother’s tombstone. The black-and-white photo on the grave was somber and still, while the sorrow hidden in Zachary’s eyes felt endless.Mr. Lambert had mentioned to her earlier that he’d seen Zachary and Charlie together today. Could it be... Zachary already knew the truth?What kind of terrible, heartbreaking truth could possibly leave a man like him looking this devastated?“Did you… find out something?” Sarah asked him softly.Zachary buried his head against her shoulder, giving a low, muffled reply. When he had been at the factory, listening to the things Charlie said, he had forced himself to stay calm, keeping up the image of a r

He tried with all his might to hide the concern in his voice. Showing it would lead to endless consequences.Charlie thought for a long time before answering, "I'm not entirely sure. On the day of the explosion, that woman from the Reynolds apparently had a car accident. But you know, in a place like West Ridge, the chance of having a car accident is maybe one in a thousand. This isn't a big city with busy traffic. You can barely see any cars on most roads, let alone one hitting someone. Yet strangely, she really did have an accident."Zachary lowered his eyes. He didn't want to hear any more.This was the very reason he never even got to see her one last time."Bro, now that we've found the truth, when can I get my share of the money?" Charlie looked at Zachary excitedly, already silently fantasizing about what he would do with the money.But to his surprise, when Zachary looked up again, his eyes were ice-cold. "You're lying."The calm tone with which he spoke these words mad

"I have no choice. Why are you two acting so high and mighty? Before things went wrong, you were all making money hand over fist. Now you're pointing fingers. Every factory in Westridge operates this way. If the authorities hadn't started investigating, would anyone want to stop?" The supervisor's voice was sharp with frustration.The senior pharmacist replied coolly, "We can stop now. The final batch has already been sold. We won't lose much on the remaining stock. Even if they investigate, they won't find anything."The supervisor's voice quivered. "That's nonsense. If only it were that simple. That woman from the Reynolds family is relentless. Have you forgotten how many investigators she's sent here? But soon, she'll be out of our way.""Enough about that. The factory cannot close! I absolutely refuse to agree!"Hearing footsteps approaching, Charlie bolted. When he reached the director's office, he found it empty.Back at his workstation, something felt wrong. Glancing outsid

Zachary had reviewed the official investigation report from that year.The report stated that explosive materials were found in the materials room on the third floor, brought in accidentally by a supervisor. Large amounts of helium were also discovered in that room, several times more than in other areas.Yet Charlie hadn't mentioned the third floor at all. Instead, he had brought Zachary to the second floor. Either this was the true explosion site, or Charlie was deliberately hiding something.This room had significantly more burn damage than other areas. The workshop was almost completely destroyed, with debris and remnants everywhere. It was impossible to tell what had once been here—just an empty workspace surrounded by areas that still smelled of burning.Zachary's flashlight illuminated the entire room. Charlie had already tried to turn on the power, but without success."The factory's wiring has really deteriorated. Nothing works," Charlie complained.Zachary shook his hea

This factory, sealed for nearly ten years, finally revealed its former glory to the people of the East Coast. Charlie confidently led Zachary through the valley. When they reached the innermost part of the mountain range, Zachary followed Charlie's lead and stopped.Weeds had completely covered the area. Charlie efficiently tore away the ivy that had grown over everything, revealing a rust-covered iron door.Time had left its mark on the iron door; the rust flaked off at the slightest touch. In the middle was a chain with a padlock. Charlie casually picked up a stone and smashed it hard against the lock. With a dull thud, the lock fell to the ground.The factory from ten years ago differed greatly from modern ones. It lacked sophisticated security measures, since all the equipment inside was too heavy to steal anyway.They stood before the massive iron door. Zachary reached out to touch the cold metal. "How do you know about this place?"Charlie looked solemnly at the valley befor

When Charlie heard the words "Wilson Factory explosion," he froze, his face showing a complex mix of emotions."Who are you?" he asked warily.Zachary displayed a hunger for money. "Don't be nervous. I'm just a private investigator. By coincidence, I got this big job—find the truth and get paid.""Who's the client?" Charlie's face was full of suspicion.Zachary suddenly gave him a cold look, his tone full of warning. "Charlie, in this business, many things are confidential when it comes to clients. We take the money and do the job, never asking too many questions."Seeing how serious Zachary was, Charlie began to accept that he might really be a private detective."Charlie, this is a genuine two million. Aren't you tempted? If I didn't think you knew a lot about what happened back then, I wouldn't even consider sharing this with you. If we succeed, that's two million—one million each."Charlie's heart trembled at these words. One million! How could he not be tempted?With that

"I-I'm telling you, this is in the town, not up in the remote hills. If you try to beat me up, bystanders definitely won't just stand by and watch," he stammered, trying to intimidate Zachary while his hand secretly reached for the door bolt."Relax. I didn't come to beat you today. I'm just curious—why are you so fixated on her?" Zachary asked calmly, fishing for information.He had already made up his mind before coming. If Charlie truly had a grievance with Sarah, he would find a way to send her away. Even if she ended up hating him, that would be better than leaving her in danger.When Charlie heard that Zachary wasn't there to beat him, he immediately relaxed, though his body language remained wary as he kept his eyes fixed on Zachary.Zachary had already figured out Charlie's personality. He knew that unless he revealed some information first, Charlie would never willingly explain his motives for kidnapping Sarah."Sarah is my ex-girlfriend. Our breakup wasn't what I wanted,

The room wasn't very large. Though Zachary had chosen a relatively nice place, the countryside had limited options—it wasn't possible to conjure up a luxury apartment out of thin air.The couch in the living area wasn't even half the length of Zachary's height.If he had to curl up in such a small space to sleep, it would obviously be uncomfortable.Although Sarah didn't want to be indebted to him, she couldn't find the right words at this moment.She could hardly say, "The bed is big enough, we can share it."In the end, she just responded with a simple "Oh" and said nothing more.In the middle of the night, Sarah suddenly felt a chill creeping into her body.When she awoke, she realized she had kicked off her comforter.At that moment, she heard deliberately softened footsteps coming from the other room.Was Zachary still awake?Was he unable to sleep, or was the couch too uncomfortable?Sarah moved her ankle slightly and found it wasn't as painful anymore. Just as she was
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 663
"I'll see what food we have in the kitchen. You stay here and don't move around," Zachary said gently. He raised his hand to ruffle Sarah's hair, but she ducked away. He left with a disappointed look.Sarah watched his retreating figure and muttered under her breath, "Is he treating me like a child?"The countryside rooms had poor sound insulation, and soon she heard clattering noises from the kitchen.Curious about what Zachary was doing, Sarah pressed her lips together and carefully eased herself off the bed, supporting herself against the wall.Just as she was about to hop a few steps, she lost her balance on one foot. Sarah let out a sharp cry as she tumbled to the floor.The pain from her ankle made her face turn pale, and her slender body curled up into a small ball.Hearing the commotion, Zachary rushed over. Seeing the scene before him, his pupils contracted in alarm. He hurried to her side and carefully lifted her back onto the bed.The doctors in West Ridge didn't make
