Vivian sabotaged her from behind, while she had already found her next target. In this endless cycle, she could never escape the trap Vivian had set for her.When Sarah saw that Melvin was also making progress without any interference, she realized Vivian was targeting only her.She gave up looking for targets and sat quietly on the sofa.Sarah walked to the table, about to pick up a glass of wine when a voice suddenly appeared, "Don't drink that glass, it's been contaminated by the cork."She leaned in to smell it - indeed, there was a strong musty odor.She looked at the person who had been speaking, an elderly man in worn pants. "How could you tell?""I smelled it."She moved her hand to the glass next to it, and the same voice spoke again, "Don't drink that one either. The sulfur dioxide concentration is too high. These cunning merchants add preservatives excessively to the wine, not understanding what's actually good for health.""What about this one?" Sarah pointed to ano

"You look so gentle and delicate, yet speak with such authority," the elderly gentleman said admiringly."Without decanting, wine's flavor drops a level, affecting the taste. If every server was this unprofessional, the whole wine tasting would lose its original purpose. All the wines would have contracted bodies, losing their initial brilliance," Sarah explained.The elderly gentleman nodded repeatedly in agreement. "Try these others then."Sarah didn't refuse, having nothing else to do.She put down one glass. "This wine tastes immature, like it was rushed out before proper aging."She set down another. "This one has a strong grape fragrance, but beyond that aroma, it has no taste at all.""This wine smells and tastes quite good, just the color is a bit off."...The elderly gentleman watched Sarah with satisfaction - she was expressing exactly what he was thinking.He led Sarah to a corner, making sure no one could see them, and pulled out a bottle from his jacket.He held

"Me?" she chuckled. "So you're saying I'm your kindred spirit."Before they could finish their wine, Scarlett ran over, excitedly telling Sarah, "I just gave Steven a beating. If he wasn't so busy right now, I wouldn't let him off so easily!""Wait!" Scarlett suddenly sniffed the air. "This is... this is Second Flight! I can smell the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, and that subtle plum aroma in the air."She turned sharply to Sarah. "Where's the wine?"Just the smell had her salivating - such wines were rare.Hearing her speak, the elderly gentleman had already decided to share the wine with her too."I must drink as much as I can now. Who knows when I'll encounter Second Flight again!"The elderly gentleman laughed at her words.While the three enjoyed their wine, music started playing in the hall.Even at a wine tasting, dancing couldn't be missed.As the three drank, all eyes turned to watch Zachary extend his hand to Vivian. "Miss Wilson, may I have this dance?"Vivian r
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 489
”Together with an old man, how ridiculous.""Has Sarah really gone mad, dancing with a homeless!”"Shh, keep your voice down. People at wine tastings aren't ordinary folk, watch what you say.""Look at his shabby clothes - he can't possibly be anyone important."Under the spotlight, Zachary and Vivian danced the waltz. Vivian's hand rested lightly on his shoulder as she gazed at his handsome face, momentarily distracted because his eyes were focused not on her, but on...Nearby, Sarah danced with the elderly gentleman. Though time had whitened his hair, it couldn't diminish his upright bearing. Through time's tunnel, she could almost see his youthful demeanor.No, something wasn't right!She looked sharply at Zachary, whose eyes held a subtle smile. This elderly gentleman was no homeless!He was...!As the orchestra played the waltz, Sarah saw for the first time how serious the elderly gentleman looked. He kept his eyes downcast toward her, as if trying to see through her to a

Looking around the hall, Sarah saw the tower of wine glasses and various wine bottles in the corner. Though there were many varieties and unique packaging, including expensive wines, no one would actually bring out a wine worth millions for tasting."Not impressed yet? The wines available in the market aren't truly precious collector's items. Real top-tier wines have long been stored away in cellars by connoisseurs. Recently, Sotheby's sold a Romanée-Conti for over three million. I was envious for a long time, but I found out too late." The elderly gentleman spoke regretfully, his pained expression genuine."Mr. Sadberry, that wine is at my home. Grandpa and Zachary drank half the bottle last time, with the other half still in our cellar. It's a 1945 vintage, with an exceptional aged taste. Why don't I invite you on grandpa’s behalf to finish the remaining half?" Vivian's clear, bright smile was naturally engaging.Sarah looked up. Vivian stood before the elderly gentleman, with Zac

"When did you meet Mr. Sadberry?" Melvin had come up behind Sarah."I didn't know him before. Just met him while drinking wine."Melvin patted Sarah's head. "The host of today's wine tasting is named Sadberry. Only he could gather so many important people."Sarah froze. How could she forget - any event where both Zachary and Vivian appeared wouldn't be a small gathering, but something significant.She had guessed the elderly gentleman must be someone important, but hadn't imagined he was from the Sadberry family.The Sadberry family were intermediaries connecting major famous wineries. Renowned châteaux like Cheval Blanc, Mouton Rothschild, Margaux, and Lafite all had partnerships with them.He also owned several wineries himself. Though his wines weren't quite at the level of the major châteaux, they were still famous.The Sadberry family wasn't from East Coast - they'd chosen it for the wine tasting because of its prosperity.Not only wine merchants like Mr. Sadberry had come

Scarlett dangled the taco in front of him. "I have another one. Want it? But you have to let us drink your wine!""How can you do this? Even if I'm not giving you any now, I already gave you two glasses earlier! Two whole glasses, do you know how much that's worth? Do you? I'm an elderly person, an elderly..."Scarlett pulled another package from her other pocket, unwrapping it layer by layer. "Sasa, forget the wine, let's eat..."...Five minutes later, Mr. Sadberry watched with heartache as Scarlett and Sarah poured his treasured wine, finding only slight consolation in the aroma in his hand."That Steven is too much - damn St. Ritz doesn't even have TACOS!” He muttered, then suddenly looked at Scarlett. "Tell me! Why did he make tacos for you?"Scarlett said, "I pestered him for ages before he made them. They were actually for Sasa. If it weren't for the wine, I wouldn't share with you.""Get this straight - I'm Mr. Sadberry, and you're looking at me with disdain!" Mr. Sadber

Vivian's heart raced with suppressed anger, but she forced herself to stay calm given the setting.She glanced at Zachary beside her, remembering his conversation with grandpa at home. This man would soon be hers anyway - let that witch enjoy her freedom while she could!Soon, the assistant brought the contract, and the signing was completed within ten minutes. Mason showed no surprise as he shook hands with Melvin.Though the Sanders family's situation was resolved, the wine tasting wasn't over.Sarah didn't recognize many of the technical terms the sommeliers used after tasting various wines. As the Sanders’s daughter, she had encountered unknown wines before, and her father had taught her how to taste them.She remained in the corner, with Mr. Sadberry and Scarlett keeping her company. Ignoring the tacos in their hands, the scene was quite harmonious.Just as she was about to leave, Vivian stopped her."Miss Sanders, don't rush off. I have another wine I'd like you and Mr. Sa

Upon hearing this, Manager Sullivan's face changed, and he glanced at Charlie, standing among the crowd, with a severe look of malice. Charlie, for his part, was clueless about what was happening. He was sure he had sabotaged the machinery effectively, given his years of experience in the factory and his knowledge of the equipment.But why hadn't it worked this time?He looked towards the technician with a puzzled expression, but the technician's confident gaze only increased his panic.After the meeting, Manager Sullivan called Charlie into his office and immediately started berating him as soon as the door was shut. "What happened? Weren't you supposed to have completely destroyed the equipment? Why does the technician say it can still be fixed? What did you do?"Charlie was even more baffled. He reflected on how he had damaged the equipment, unable to figure out what went wrong. "Manager, I was sure I had completely wrecked it. I even checked again after damaging it to ensure it

Before Sarah could speak, Manager Sullivan blurted out, "Miss Sanders, if I catch whoever did this, they won't get away with it!"Mr. Lambert sarcastically interjected, "What if it's a case of the thief crying catch the thief?"Manager Sullivan became defensive, "Mr. Lambert, you should think before you speak! I'm the manager of this factory. Every day the factory is down, I'm the most anxious of all! Are you really accusing me now? Miss Sanders, if you're going to suspect me as well, you might as well have headquarters fire me."Sarah quickly tried to defuse the situation, "Manager Sullivan, what are you talking about? You're the manager of this factory; of course, I trust your commitment to it. It’s just that this situation is serious. The old equipment that was destroyed in the last batch was due for an upgrade anyway, so that wasn’t a loss. But this time, it’s different."She paused before continuing, "This equipment was ordered from Germany by our headquarters half a year ago.

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
