Chapter 66

Author: Summer Knowles
Lucy’s mind was spinning as she walked toward the stairs. The thought of the necklace Mia mentioned—a piece worth billions—made her heart race. Was Zachary really planning to give it to her? Surely, he must have realized she was far better than Sarah.

Her heartbeat quickened as she approached the far-left room on the second floor. The idea of meeting Zachary alone left her both nervous and thrilled. She lightly knocked on the door, her face flushed with excitement, but before she could knock again, the door swung open on its own. She stepped inside, and the room was pitch black, with no lights on.

“Mr. Reynolds?” she called out tentatively.

Silence greeted her. The darkness felt oppressive, and a sliver of fear began creeping in.

“Bang!”

The door slammed shut behind her, plunging her into total darkness.

“Mr. Reynolds! Are you there?” Her voice trembled as she pressed her hands against the walls, searching for a light switch, but all she felt was the cold, hard surface.

Then, w

  • Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect   Chapter 1284

    Brenda looked at him calmly and did not bother explaining that Scarlett had already arranged every possible backup plan for her.Scarlett did not have cash, but she had countless luxury items, gold, and jewelry. Selling just a few pieces was more than enough.Brenda now had the money to cover her father’s medical treatment. She had paid all the hospital bills in full, with plenty left over, and transferred the remaining funds into her mother’s account.Even if the family did nothing at all, it would still be enough to support an ordinary household for four or five years.And besides, neither she nor her mother planned to sit idle.The school situation had also been settled. Because of her excellent grades, once the administration learned about her family circumstances, they approved a temporary leave so she could care for her family, with the option to return and continue her education later.With all her worries resolved, it was only natural that Brenda would give her loyalty to

    When Brenda arrived, she saw Scarlett holding a fruit knife to her own throat, her eyes wild as she screamed at the bodyguards, “Move! If you don’t move, I’ll kill myself!”The team leader immediately signaled his men not to act rashly while trying to calm her down. “Miss, please don’t hurt yourself. If Mr. Larson finds out, he’ll be devastated.”Scarlett did not actually want to hurt her father. She shook her head through tears, her tone softening slightly. “Please. I just want to go out and see Steven once. I’ll come straight back. I swear I won’t run anywhere else.”Unwilling to lose his job, the guard began inching forward, step by step.Without her realizing it, the distance between them slowly closed.He calculated quickly. If he moved fast enough, even if he could not keep her completely unharmed, it would not be life-threatening. At worst, she would suffer minor injuries.With that in mind, the hand at his side curled into a fist. His muscles tensed, ready to strike.Sen

    Her gaze hardened in an instant. She yanked the door open and sprinted out, following the safe route map Brenda had sent, moving as fast as she could.Brenda had only managed to distract the bodyguards temporarily. Scarlett did not know how she had done it, but she knew this rare chance would not last.She cut through the corridor, exited through the back of the main hall, and entered the garden. The grounds were vast, and behind the rock formations were several branching paths.The route map ended there.Scarlett hesitated, forced herself to choose, then clenched her teeth and stepped onto the leftmost pebble path.“This is a gamble.”The path was smooth at first, then gradually turned rough. The stone trail curved upward, looped, and descended again, designed purely to give the garden a wild, natural look.When Scarlett had first seen the blueprints, she had been thrilled. Now, she deeply regretted it.She carefully braced herself against large rocks and climbed upward. Wearin

    Seeing the servant break down in tears, Scarlett’s original intention quietly shifted.Her plan still needed to move forward, but that did not stop her from showing a bit of kindness along the way.The servant wiped her tears with her free hand, took a deep breath, and spoke through sobs.“I was still in school just a few days ago. If I held on for one more year, I would have graduated. But something terrible happened at home. My father is in the ICU right now. He’s in critical condition. My mother isn’t well either, so I had no choice but to suspend my studies and come out to work, just to earn some money for the family.”As if another painful memory surfaced, her tears spilled over again, her voice breaking.“But yesterday, the doctor said my father has to have surgery, and it costs a lot of money. I really have no other way. Miss, please… can you help me?”She started to get up to kneel again, but Scarlett quickly stopped her.“If you kneel again, I won’t help you,” Scarlett sa

    At ten o’clock that night, a well-dressed young man walked into the Wilson residence, the home where Vivian once lived.Inside the innermost master bedroom, top-tier medical equipment filled the space. Old Mr. Wilson lay on a specialized medical bed.The young man set down the secure case, took out the syringe Dr. Seth had prepared, and injected it directly into Old Mr. Wilson’s nutritional line.Nearby, a middle-aged woman stepped forward and gently wiped the sweat from the old man’s forehead with a handkerchief.“Well done, Anthony,” she said softly. “Inject another dose tomorrow morning.”She was the housekeeper, Marianne. After the Wilson family collapsed, she had vanished from sight. No one knew she had been secretly caring for Old Mr. Wilson all this time.Anthony hesitated. “Doesn’t it need to be diluted?”Marianne shook her head. “There’s no time. Henry is about to make his final move.”Anthony stopped objecting. “Understood.”“Don’t tell the Miss Wilson about this yet

    Dr. Seth had not forgotten why he had come to East Coast in the first place.The most important matter was the research patient at the institute. It was an extremely rare case, the only one of its kind in the world.Once the special medication was unsealed, it remained viable for only three hours. As long as he returned within that window, everything would be fine.But after he fully left the hospital room, a person in a white lab coat slipped inside quietly. When that person left, the item in their hand was unmistakable.Dr. Seth’s secure medical case.An hour later, Dr. Seth returned.The case was gone.So was the syringe he had placed inside the temperature-controlled cabinet.His hands shaking, he triggered the emergency alarm.Within twenty minutes, Zachary arrived at the hospital.Dr. Seth spoke anxiously.“That case contained all the special medication I brought with me this time. The syringe already held a diluted dose prepared for injection. To be honest, this drug i
