Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 504
After scaring the man off, Steven turned back toward the booth. Sarah and Scarlett were still drinking, completely oblivious to the danger they’d just been in. His anger flared. Without hesitation, he snatched their glasses away. “Scarlett, look at me!” Something in his voice cut through her drunken haze. At the sound of his command, Scarlett snapped to attention, a shiver running down her spine as she looked up at him. “Steven?! What… what are you doing here?” Panic flashed across her face, and in a desperate attempt to hide, she covered her face with her hands. “Nope, not me! You’ve got the wrong person!” Steven clenched his jaw. “Wake up. Do you have any idea what almost happened just now? Why the hell weren’t you answering your phone? I called you dozens of times!” His eyes were red with frustration. Scarlett shrank back, guilty. “I’m sorry, okay? Sasa was feeling down, so I brought her here to relax. I wasn’t planning to get drunk…” But after Sarah came

The next second, Sarah yanked her hand away like she had touched something scorching hot. Her hazy eyes stared at him in suspicion. “Are you… the big bad guy?” Zachary frowned slightly before realizing—she was talking about him. He let out a sigh and, with a hint of indulgence in his voice, said, “Yes, I’m the big bad guy. And I’ve come to take you home.” “No, I’ve got no home to return to…” she murmured. His gaze darkened slightly, and his voice softened even more. “Sasa, you do have a home.” She muttered something incoherent, then suddenly mumbled, “Big bad guy, I don’t need you. Go take care of your Miss Wilson.” Her words were slurred, her eyes half-closed, her thoughts drifting aimlessly. Zachary knew she was completely drunk. Without another word, he gently pulled her up. “I’ll take you home.” He led her out of the bar, but when he tried to help her into the backseat of his car, she resisted. Shaking her head furiously, she plopped down onto the pave

“Zachary… my leg hurts.” The words were soft, almost childlike, but they hit him like a sledgehammer. His pupils shrank, his entire body tensing as he instinctively looked down at her leg. “…Why does it hurt?” A stiff, pained smile twisted on his lips—one that looked more like he was about to cry. Sarah wasn’t even fully conscious, yet tears streamed silently down her face. Her right hand clutched at her thigh—the exact spot where he knew she had a scar. That scar. Buried deep in her subconscious, hidden beneath years of suppressed memories. People say that when you’re drunk, the truth slips out—the things buried so deep inside you, the things you never speak about when you’re sober. And now, Zachary was terrified. Because if those painful memories resurfaced—if she finally remembered—she would realize that things weren’t what she thought they were. And then what? Would she ever be able to face him again? Would she ever forgive him? “Sasa… w

"Marianne," Vivian asked with reddened eyes, "why didn't he stay with me last night?"The question of love - the answer was obvious. She didn't need to beat around the bush; even she knew how Zachary felt.Marianne averted her gaze, stammering, "Miss Wilson, Mr. Reynolds probably had some business to attend to. Besides, didn't he already agree to your father's proposal?"Vivian knew he'd agreed, but being forced and doing it willingly were two different things.Though she considered herself exceptional, matters of the heart were never simple.Then her phone rang."Miss Wilson, after leaving your house yesterday, Mr. Reynolds went straight home."Vivian breathed a sigh of relief, but what came next made her heart clench. "Around 1:30 AM, Mr. Reynolds went out again."Before the caller could finish, Vivian cut in urgently, "Did he go to Ink Bar?""Yes, Mr. Reynolds went to Ink Bar and left with a woman. They were going to take a car, but she said something, and Mr. Reynolds e

"Zachary," Vivian had asked, they all say you love Sarah, not me. That I ruined your happiness. Is that true?" "No."She'd forgotten so much from that night, but those two lines remained crystal clear. They were right - she was just a clown, bound to be pushed aside once the real leading lady appeared.She'd woken up this morning with a splitting headache, the previous night a complete blank.The last thing she remembered was cursing out James, then drinking with Scarlett to drown her sorrows.She'd blacked out - but what about Scarlett?After getting dressed and heading downstairs, she found Melvin watching her with gentle concern. The housekeeper had already prepared hangover remedy."Sasa, come drink this."Sarah obediently sat at the table and finished the drink. "Melvin, how did I get home last night? Where's Scarlett?""Scarlett went home. The bar owner called me to pick you up."Sarah nodded, unconvinced. She was sure she'd heard Zachary's voice.On that walk home

Scarlett winked. "Of course, and if you happened to share some of that wine again, even better."Mr. Sadberry immediately put down his taco. "I knew it!""Just kidding, just kidding. Please, enjoy your food," Scarlett laughed.After chatting briefly with Mr. Sadberry, Sarah and Scarlett left.In the elevator, Sarah was still puzzled. Remembering Mr. Sadberry's comments about his wife while they danced, she wondered if he'd helped because she reminded him of Mrs. Sadberry in her youth.Sarah hadn't forgotten about last night and continued pressing Scarlett for more details.Meanwhile in Mr. Sadberry's office, someone emerged from the rest area."Thank you, sir."Mr. Sadberry enthusiastically munched on his taco, waving dismissively. "No need for thanks. After all, you're the one who went to such lengths to get me to sign with the Sanders. Though I'm curious - was it because of that girl?"Zachary didn't answer, just tapped the desk lightly. "Sir, I hope you can keep this confid

Melvin was already expanding on the idea in his mind - they could even add actors playing wild men, or maybe zombies for extra thrills."Sasa, great idea, but safety has to be our top priority."Sarah nodded in understanding, then pointed to an area she'd had reserved next to the resort. “Melvin, guess what I want this space for?"When Melvin looked confused, she continued, "A wellness center - I want to build the best therapeutic facility on the East Coast. Not just counseling, but stress relief zones too. Many people suffer because they can't release their emotions. This center would help with that.""Your ideas never cease to amaze me," Melvin smiled. "This is your forte - it's all yours."She nodded, checking the time. It was 9:20 - Joel was twenty minutes late without any sign of showing up.“Melvin, is Joel still coming?" she asked, frowning.Sarah found it odd too. Even if something came up, they should have received a call.He reluctantly tried calling, but there was no

The previously hopeful team now felt deflated."Don't lose heart," Melvin told them. "He's just one designer."There were plenty of renowned international designers - surely the Wilsons couldn't have them all in their pocket.At the prison, Michael was escorted out. “Michael Luther, you have a visitor."He'd been here a long time; even his father hadn't visited lately.There was only one person he kept thinking about - but could it be her?He stared at his blurry reflection in the glass. His unshaven face looked haggard.Prison life meant early nights and morning exercises - he stayed relatively healthy, especially with all the "arrangements" his family had made with the warden for special treatment.He walked nervously to the visiting room, took a deep breath. The guard opened the door, and his eyes turned cold when he saw who it was. Not her."Mr. Luther, you look disappointed. Who were you expecting?" Sarah smiled, perching on the visiting room table.Michael shook his h

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
Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 646
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
