Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect Chapter 615
Manager Sullivan’s face lit up with excitement, but he had to ask, "Did you see her body?""Manager, last night I made sure to poke more holes in that already leaky roof. Just as expected, the house collapsed during the night. The thunder was so loud nobody heard a thing. By now, she's definitely buried under the rubble. Enough time has passed - she's already dead," Charlie said confidently.Still looking concerned, Manager Sullivan asked, "Did Mr. Lambert know it too?”"Mr. Lambert? He doesn't know anything yet. But by the time he finds out, it'll be too late," Charlie replied with a smirk.Manager Sullivan patted his shoulder, then pointed at the injuries on his face. "What happened there?"Charlie was forthcoming. In fact, he hoped Manager Sullivan might help him."Manager, I went to the gambling den a few days ago and lost some money. My wife wouldn't give me more - she hid it so well I couldn't find it. So I went back yesterday, and before I could even reach the table, I..."

Manager Sullivan stood frozen, unable to process what was happening. The person who should be dead was standing right in front of him, completely unharmed.So she hadn't returned to the Wesler house last night?"Who said I died?" Sarah asked with a graceful smile. "Manager Sullivan, if I had actually died, my cousin would have driven straight to this factory within a day to deal with it. You probably don't know, but it was originally my cousin who was supposed to come to West Ridge. I decided to come at the last minute."Her smile remained calm as she continued, "Manager Sullivan, I've been at this factory for two days but haven't met all the workers. I asked you several times to call a meeting, but you always refused with some excuse. Now suddenly everyone's gathered!"Manager Sullivan's face paled with anger. He shot a glare at Charlie, who was hiding in the crowd.Charlie hadn't expected this either. He dared not look at the manager or Sarah.Sarah addressed the workers direct

Before Sarah could continue, Manager Sullivan cut in again. "Besides, the entire Sanders organization is now under Melvin Sanders’s control, not old Mr. Sanders' son. I'm curious - why didn't you, as Mr. Sanders' daughter, take charge of the family business? Why leave everything to Melvin? If you claim he has no selfish motives, I won't believe it.""So you've orchestrated all of this to break free from headquarters' control?" Sarah's eyes were cold as ice.Manager Sullivan, thinking his reasoning had convinced her, grew more passionate. "Of course! Miss Sanders, if you take Sanders Corp back from Melvin, I'll cooperate fully with your work."Sarah sneered. "Manager Sullivan, I'm embarrassed for you just hearing that. I know exactly why you want to escape oversight from headquarters. You're the one who spread all those superstitions around the factory, aren't you?"The workers exchanged confused glances. Recently, some equipment had malfunctioned, while other machines worked fine.

"Manager Sullivan, I need to talk to you," Sarah said, her voice steady.Manager Sullivan forced a smile as he opened the door. "Come in."Sarah sat down across from him and dropped her handbag on the floor. "Let's get straight to the point. I know exactly who you're working for, and what your boss is trying to do."Sullivan clenched his fists, forcing a bitter smile. "Miss Sanders, I don't know what you're talking about. What boss? I only work for the Sanders family. You hold the largest share of Sanders stock, so naturally, I work for you.""Isn't that a bit self-righteous?" Sarah asked coolly. "Your daughter went abroad last year, didn't she? I heard she's attending a prestigious university. How did you afford that kind of education?"Manager Sullivan grew agitated. "I saved for years. It's completely normal to send my daughter abroad. Besides, even if my salary wasn't enough, there's my wife's income."Sarah tossed a brown paper bag on the desk. "From what I know, your wife w

As Charlie played, he remembered the man who had helped him when he was beaten. Could he really win tens of thousands like that man had?The thought intrigued him. If that man could help him, these few thousand might multiply many times over.Some bystanders, seeing his desperate situation, tried to intervene. "Stop, you're about to lose everything. Do you really want to go broke?"Charlie's eyes remained fixed on the cards. "No, I'm going to win! This round is mine!"Focused on the money pile on the table, he gripped his last five hundred dollars and placed one hundred on the small bet. "Small!"People around him goaded him. "The Wesler family is so rich, why bet just a hundred? You bet a thousand at the other table!"Zachary, watching from the sidelines, exchanged a subtle glance with the dealer and added, "At least bet two hundred."Charlie hesitated, then threw down another two hundred. "Fine, two hundred it is!"Unsurprisingly, he lost again.He stared at the remaining th

Charlie was too absorbed in his thoughts to notice much. All he could focus on was how Zachary was his key to winning money at the gambling den. He desperately wanted to be close to Zachary, even longing to call him "bro.""Useless woman! Go cook something for my friend!" Charlie barked.Mrs. Wesler, afraid to argue, hurried to the kitchen. Meanwhile, Zachary and Charlie sat in the yard chatting. Before they could say much, Mr. Lambert arrived with Sarah.Mr. Lambert, a respected senior factory employee, commanded even Charlie's respect, who immediately stood. "Mr. Lambert, Miss Sanders is back?"Mr. Lambert gave him an icy look. "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You were supposed to fix the roof during the storm, but I'm guessing you didn't. Get Miss Sanders a new room right now!"Charlie was confused about Sarah's intentions. There were other families in the town; why insist on staying with them?Still, he didn't mind. His previous attempt had failed, but he wasn't g

Charlie suddenly slammed his fork on the table. "You think I'm giving you face by letting you talk this much trash about me? I don't believe this! Every month I give you my salary, and somehow there's not a penny left? Get out all the money you've been hiding right now!"Mrs. Wesler hadn't expected such a violent reaction. She froze, looking to her in-laws for help, but they continued eating without changing expression, as if they were used to such scenes.Sarah took another bite of vegetables, avoiding Zachary's eyes and staring at his hand instead. Those long, well-defined fingers holding the fork hadn't paused despite the argument.Then Charlie slapped his wife hard across the face, knocking her to the floor.Only then did Zachary move to stop Charlie, while Sarah helped Mrs. Wesler up.Mrs. Wesler looked at him in disbelief. "Charlie! You gamble away all our money and then blame me! You hit me! Heaven will punish you for this cruelty!"Charlie felt his forehead pulsing as his

Sarah glanced secretly at Zachary and saw that he looked almost as uncomfortable with Charlie as she felt. This confirmed her suspicion that Charlie must have something Zachary wanted.After dinner, Charlie glared at his wife and Sarah. "Meal's over. Women, clear out now! We men have business to discuss!"Mrs. Wesler hurried away with the dishes, not daring to delay.Sarah gave Zachary a long look before turning to leave.Zachary watched her go, lost in thought. When he turned back, Charlie was leering at him."Bro, what do you think? Like that woman? Need your brother's help? We could knock her out, have your way with her, and she'd be yours for good." Before he could finish, he caught Zachary's ice-cold stare and instinctively fell silent.Charlie quickly laughed it off. "Look at my big mouth! Let's talk business. Bro, could you come with me to the den again? Strange thing about that place - after winning a few thousand my first time, I never won again until you showed up. How

”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

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

"Zachary, you're here?" Charlie greeted with a sycophantic tone. Indeed, it was Zachary, who frowned slightly. About twenty minutes ago, Charlie had called him, claiming Sarah was in danger and that he needed to hurry over. Zachary had rushed here as quickly as possible, but now couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. Why did Charlie's smile seem so... unsettling?"What's wrong with Miss Sanders?" Zachary asked, his gaze serious.Charlie, sensing he had played his cards right, pointed toward Sarah's room and said meaningfully, "Miss Sanders is in that room. She's in critical condition right now. Hurry, go save her."He even gave an expression that implied men would understand.Zachary's unease grew. He walked into Sarah's room, only to find her lying on the bed, seemingly unconscious."Sasa?" He rushed over, his voice full of concern.From outside the door, Charlie's voice rang out. "Zachary, time is money. I've given you what you wanted. Go ahead and take it."Zachar

The next morning, Charlie handed over the last two thousand dollars he had managed to scrounge from his house to Manager Sullivan. After groveling and pleading, it took quite a while before Sullivan finally decided to let him off the hook.Sarah sat in her office, her eyes fixed on the computer screen displaying an email reply from headquarters. The report about the equipment malfunction had been approved, and the request for new devices granted. The board of directors hadn't opposed it, which came as a surprise.Outside the office, Charlie passed by the door, his mind still reeling from Sullivan's earlier warning."You've got one more chance. Sarah Sanders is sharp. If you fail again, pack your bags and leave!"He clenched his fist, determined not to fail this time.At six in the evening, Sarah was about to leave for the day when, to her surprise, Charlie was waiting outside, calling her over. "Hurry up and eat! My mom made dishes specially for you. I know I messed up last time,

Mrs. Chancer handed the gift box to Mrs. Sanders. "Take this with you. These are items I purchased overseas—things you can't find here. As for the matter you mentioned, I'll give it serious consideration. Don't worry, our goals align."Mrs. Chancer escorted Mrs. Sanders to the door, and just as she was about to close it, she bumped into her son, James.Mrs. Sanders gave James a complicated look, nodding slightly in acknowledgment."James, this is Mrs. Sanders visiting today," Mrs. Chancer explained gently.James smiled warmly. "Hello, Mrs. Sanders."Mrs. Sanders, with a hint of suggestion in her voice, said, "Mr. Chancer is truly impressive. Our Sarah doesn't have that kind of luck."Mrs. Chancer quickly interjected, "What good is saying that now? James is already married. Besides, our children's affairs shouldn't involve us. We should maintain our relationships as usual. After all, East Coast is quite small.""Of course," Mrs. Sanders replied with a smile. "I'll take my leave n

Sarah barely noticed the sting of alcohol on her wounds, her mind distracted by the conversation. She had almost forgotten the pain of disinfecting, too focused on the words just spoken.As Mrs. Wesley sat lost in thought, Sarah asked casually, "You mentioned earlier that Charlie had caused many deaths. What exactly did he do? Did he really kill people?"Mrs. Wesley snapped back to reality, her face filled with regret. She looked at Sarah apologetically. "I'm sorry, it's something from many years ago. He wasn't working at the Sanders factory then, he was..." she hesitated, her voice trailing off before offering Sarah a sheepish look. "Apologies, I don't remember all the details. Miss Sanders, are you particularly interested in this?"Sarah smiled faintly. "I just overheard and thought it sounded serious, so I couldn't help but ask."Seeing the defensive look in Mrs. Wesley's eyes, Sarah smoothly changed the subject. "What do you plan to do now?"Mrs. Wesley sighed heavily. "I have

Sarah's expression turned serious. Though she didn't fully understand their conversation, she suspected it might be connected to Zachary's investigation.Charlie knew he wouldn't get any money from Sarah, but with Manager Sun's deadline looming tomorrow, he had to find four thousand dollars tonight. He stubbornly retreated to his room to continue his desperate search.Before leaving, he couldn't resist one final threat: "Watch your mouth."Mrs. Wesler wiped blood from her lip. Her face was swollen and marked with slap prints. She tried to push herself up from the floor, but her body trembled from the beating. Unable to rise, she collapsed back down, weakly tapping the ground.Sarah approached and extended her hand. "Let me help you."Mrs. Wesler looked up with a complex expression but finally placed her hand in Sarah's. "Thank you."Sarah helped her to her room, then retrieved a medical kit from her suitcase.Mrs. Wesler stared curiously at the contents—iodine, disinfectant, ant

"Miss Sanders, this is a family matter. Mind your own business!" Charlie snapped. "She's my wife - I'll do whatever I want with her. If you want to stay here, go lock yourself in your room and don't look or listen. Or I'll beat you too!"Sarah approached him slowly, completely unfazed. "If you dare, do it now. I want to see if you have the guts to hit me."Charlie stepped back, humiliated and furious. Of course he wouldn't dare! Sarah was Melvin Sanders' cousin, and the whole factory belonged to her family.He fell silent as Sarah turned to the battered woman on the ground. "How long are you going to lie there?" she asked, her voice cold. "Are you waiting to be beaten to death? Do you want to spend whatever's left of your life under this man's fists, barely surviving? Or would you rather just die now?"Something flickered in Mrs. Wesler's eyes - a spark replacing the despair. She looked at Charlie, her gaze complex and searching.Charlie sensed the shift and grew uneasy. "What are
