Vengeance Reborn: Making her Scumbag CEO Husband Pay with His Life Chapter 293
Renee gritted her teeth, trying to stay calm."Fake videos? Did Annie tell you that? No wonder she can fool you so easily - you're so gullible!""You! Think I'm joking? Let me remind you - my father oversees construction safety in this district. One word from me, and Renee Lacey will cease to exist!""So this is how your father runs his office. The Larson family must have quite a history of dirty dealings," Renee sneered.Nancy's face twisted with malice."Throw her in again!"Renee was repeatedly plunged into the foul pool, nearly drowning each time.When they finally pulled her up, her breathing was faint, but her eyes still held their defiant glare.Nancy felt inexplicably irritated. "Where are the videos? This is your last chance!"Renee glanced around, then asked, "I'm curious - why are you the one confronting me? Who sent you?""Shut up! Don't try to create discord!""Discord? I don't know anything," Renee turned away.Nancy scoffed and stepped closer."Renee, are yo

The burly man handed the bag to Nancy.Renee quickly gave her the unlock codes.Nancy checked everything on both phone and computer, finding only work files and casual chats - no videos or photos as claimed.She frowned, still suspicious.While secretly cutting her ropes with the tile underwater, Renee suggested, "Miss Larson, if you think I'm hiding something, you can have an expert search deeper."Nancy took her advice.Watching the progress bars flash on the screens, Renee felt slightly relieved.Her devices were full of four years' worth of design work and drafts - searching through it all would take time.Perfect for cutting through her bonds.But just as she was nearly done, the search finished unexpectedly."Miss, there's nothing."Nancy grabbed Renee's phone in disbelief.Renee felt conflicted. She had Carl to thank for erasing everything so thoroughly."Impossible!" Nancy yanked Renee forward. "You're tricking me again?"Renee stayed calm. "And wait for you to ki

It was him.Chris Percy!The man paused: "You know me?"Renee quickly looked away, shaking her head, pleading with a trembling voice, "I really don't know anything. Why won't Miss Larson believe me?"She couldn't admit recognizing him - maybe there was still a chance to survive.The man laughed maniacally: "Then make sure you come back to haunt her."He swung the pipe down.Renee instinctively curled up, but at that moment, the man was thrown against the lockers like a ragdoll.The row of lockers crashed down, breaking the boards covering the window.Moonlight spilled through the shattered window, elongating the shadow of her savior. Blood dripped from his fist, staining his red jade ring an even deeper crimson.It was Carl.Recognizing him, Renee bit her bloodless lips and slid down the wall.Before she hit the ground, someone caught her in their arms.Seeing this, the helmeted man escaped through the window.Carl carried Renee out of the swimming complex as Jackson appr

The nurse quickly inserted a new IV.After everything was settled, Carl looked at Chris."Leave us."Chris rubbed both his stomach and the arm Carl had grabbed. "This counts as a work injury!"As the door closed, only Renee and Carl remained.Renee came to her senses and tried to break free from his embrace.But he held her firmly from behind, his warm chest unyielding, his dominating presence enveloping her.His voice was deep and cold: "You knew she would come after you?""No. Uncle Carl, didn't you say I wasn't clever enough? How could I possibly understand others' intentions?" Renee said quietly."Still being stubborn?"Sitting behind her, his expression and emotions were unreadable.He simply pulled the blanket over them both.His body warmth quickly heated the cold blanket.Renee felt awkward but couldn't move.The room fell silent except for the soft rustle of blankets, creating an intimate atmosphere.After a moment, Renee gripped the blanket. "It was Annie.""S

But she had more important things to do now.To file a police report, she'd need a medical examination. She needed to check what was missing from her report.When Renee got out of bed, her legs felt like cotton.Gritting her teeth, she made her way step by step to the doctor's office.Halfway there, the office door burst open.Chris rushed out while on the phone: "Are you trying to get yourself killed? This is madness!"In his hurry, he ran past without noticing her.Renee watched him go, thinking of the person who fled the locker room - similar, yet different.Chris's mask had been shattered by Carl, and he'd crashed into many lockers. So why did he look completely unharmed now?And why did Carl trust Chris so much when he knew about his affair with Annie?These questions swirled in her mind.Despite her weakness, she followed Chris while supporting herself against the wall.He entered the emergency center.Renee peeked through the half-open door.Inside were rows of bed

The man's hands were pale and elegant, his fingers like jade as they slid from her wrist to her palm, intertwining with her fingers.He gently pulled her into his embrace.Renee froze, slowly looking up to find him inches away, gazing down at her.It was Carl.His eyes were deep as the night sky, scattered with endless pinpoints of light.Both intimidating and mesmerizing.Under his gaze, her heart clenched painfully as her daughter's soft voice echoed in her memory."Mommy, why did you name me Sarah?""Because your eyes are beautiful like the stars."Like your father's.In their long, quiet gaze, her vision blurred.Not wanting anyone to see her vulnerability, she quickly avoided Carl's eyes, looking down.In the next moment, he draped his suit jacket over her head, covering most of her face.His presence enveloped her completely, and as tears welled up, she instinctively gripped their interlocked fingers.Her fingertips dug into his hand, but he didn't pull away."Let'

"Hello.""Miss Lacey, I'm from the police station. We're at your hospital room. Where are you?"The voice was deep, with a hint of impatience.Renee understood their frustration - it was late, and they couldn't find her after responding to the call."Sorry, I'll be right there.""Hurry up."After hanging up, Renee pushed Carl away and stuffed his jacket back into his arms."Uncle Carl, I have to go."Unable to meet his eyes, she ran off.Carl watched her disappear. His phone buzzed, and after glancing at the message, his eyes turned colder.He too left the stairwell....Hospital Room.Renee opened the door, expecting to see waiting police officers.Instead, she found Nancy in a wheelchair, bandaged from head to toe.Though heavily bandaged, Nancy's face was flushed, showing no pain - only smugness.Renee froze.Before she could speak, the door opened again.Michael entered sternly, followed by Carl and Annie.Seeing Nancy in the wheelchair, Annie rushed forward and

Renee coldly surveyed everyone before fixing her gaze on the middle-aged officer."You must be Nancy's uncle?""I'm enforcing the law impartially, with evidence. I hope you understand."He avoided directly answering her question, standing straight as if to appear more righteous.But his quick glance at Nancy betrayed him.Renee smiled coldly. "Sorry, but I disagree with your enforcement. I just filed the report, yet Miss Larson already has all her medical reports while I'm still waiting for two of mine.""Miss Larson must be quite psychic.""Also, you never took my statement. Since when do police prioritize the accused's statement over the victim's?""As for the psychiatric report, I've been consistently following treatment, and the medical system shows I'm cured. So how could I have had an episode and pushed Miss Larson?”"Furthermore, you're related to the accused. I demand another officer, or I'll file a complaint."Renee countered each point systematically.The officer s

Wedding dress?When Renee heard those two words, she couldn’t help but feel the irony.Counting the time Annie had tried on wedding dresses, this was the second time she was involved. And both times, it was for Carl’s fiancee.It was as if these weddings couldn’t happen without her as a witness.She glanced at Ruby, who was smiling radiantly, her joy pure and simple. Unlike Annie, Ruby wasn’t manipulative; her invitation was sincere.It was precisely because of this that Renee felt like the bad guy.She was about to come up with an excuse to refuse when her phone buzzed.A sudden sense of foreboding hit her.Sure enough, it was a message from Susanne.“Mr. Grey has asked me to help prepare for Carl and Miss Sanders’ engagement party.”The weight of it crushed her.Whether Susanne would offend both the Sanders and Grey families—or remain unharmed—all hinged on Renee’s response.Her hands trembled as she typed out a reply:“Got it.”Ruby seemed to notice something was off a

Ruby didn’t notice anything unusual about Renee’s demeanor. She pulled out her phone and said excitedly, “Look, we took so many photos! I’m thinking of using some of them for the engagement party and wedding. Can you help me pick a few?”Renee glanced at Ruby’s phone. The photos of Ruby and Carl, both smiling brightly, felt like tiny stabs.Ruby, a young woman nurtured by love and privilege, carried an effortless elegance. Her joy seemed pure and contagious. Her smile was magnetic, lighting up every photo.Even Carl, standing beside her, looked more at ease than usual. The two of them looked perfect together—every photo captured their harmony.Renee, on the other hand, felt awkward, unsure where to direct her gaze.“They’re all great. You two should decide,” she said with a forced smile, quickly steering the conversation elsewhere. “By the way, why did you come to see me?”Ruby clapped her hands as if just remembering. “Oh, right! I almost forgot, I got so excited. The tie clip y

Hearing her mention fire, Carl froze.His mind drifted to the dreams he’d had countless times—the little girl who hated him, and the ending that always played out the same. In every dream, the girl ran into the flames, holding the hand of a woman whose face was always blurred. The two of them would smile at each other before disappearing into the fire.Taking advantage of his hesitation, Renee broke free from Carl’s grip, putting a few steps of distance between them.Her voice trembled with a mix of anger and desperation. “Uncle Carl, I can’t win against you. I know that. But I’m still a person. Haven’t you and your father humiliated me enough? Do you really need everyone pointing at me, calling me trash, for you to finally be satisfied?”Without waiting for a reply, she turned and walked away.Carl reached out, but all he caught was the coat draped over her shoulders.Renee stopped briefly, pulling off the coat without looking back. She continued walking until her figure disappe

Carl didn’t respond to her question. Instead, he grabbed her wrist and led her into the car.Outside the window, the scenery blurred as they drove, snow starting to fall again after some time. When the car finally stopped and the door opened, a fresh layer of snow blanketed the ground.As Renee stepped out, a cashmere coat was draped over her shoulders. The faint scent of Carl surrounded her, pulling her back into reality. She found herself standing in front of a villa.The sprawling garden, now blanketed in white, held a dreamlike beauty, hinting at how enchanting it must look when the flowers were in full bloom. Renee could almost picture it clearly.Because this was the house where she had set herself on fire in her previous life.Eight years of marriage had turned this beautiful home into a gilded cage.Staring at the house, her voice was icy as she asked, “What’s the meaning of this?”Carl’s gaze darkened slightly, his tone calm. “I’ll have someone pick up your belongings f

Joey assumed Renee had forgotten and went to the kitchen to retrieve the item. She placed it in front of her—a sleek yet extravagant men’s watch.Renee recognized it instantly. It was Carl’s watch.She knew because she had a matching women’s version.But she clearly remembered tidying up the kitchen the previous night, and the watch hadn’t been there. Unless… the person who had been with her during her fever was Carl.Levi hadn’t explicitly said the soup was his doing; she had simply assumed.As the dreamlike memories replayed in her mind, Renee’s hand trembled, spilling the ginger tea.Joey quickly grabbed some napkins to clean up. “What’s wrong?”Renee turned to the window, then suddenly grabbed the watch and dashed out.Inside the elevator, she watched the descending numbers, silently counting down. Her hand braced against the wall, her emotions a tangled mess. She had told herself over and over to let go, to stop pursuing this path.But she had to know the truth.She had

Joey pointed to Levi’s suit, drawing Renee’s attention to it. She suddenly realized that Levi’s suit was from the same brand as the one Carl had been wearing when he had brought her home, his face covered. Aside from a few subtle differences, they looked almost identical to the average person. Levi and Carl also had similar builds, which explained why Joey had mistaken him. “Joey, it’s not what you think,” Renee quickly tried to explain. But Joey wasn’t listening. She stood protectively in front of Renee, as though shielding her from making a bad decision. “Renee! You promised me you’d never go back to your ex!” “Ex?” Levi repeated thoughtfully, glancing at Renee with a faint smile tugging at his lips. Renee felt a wave of frustration, like she might faint from embarrassment despite being on the mend. Joey, oblivious, continued in a righteous tone, “Sir, what’s the point of showing up now? When Renee needed someone the most, you ignored her. Being sweet after the f

Warm water slid down Renee’s throat, easing the discomfort. She gradually calmed down as a gentle thumb brushed her lips, as if the person in front of her were handling something precious.He leaned closer, his heated breath falling softly on her face.Instinctively, Renee held her breath. Even though her vision was blurry, she could feel how close he was—so close that the slightest movement would bring their lips together.Just then, the medicine’s effect fully kicked in. Renee’s body went limp, and she collapsed onto the couch.The next moment, a tall figure leaned over, pulling her tightly into his arms. His heartbeat thudded steadily in her ears, a sound that was oddly comforting.In her half-conscious state, she felt a soft touch on her forehead.“Sleep,” a low voice murmured, deep and magnetic, lulling her into the darkness.When Renee opened her eyes again, she saw a white ceiling above her. She reached up to touch her forehead—thankfully, the fever had broken.But her b

“What do you mean by that? I’m not so old that I can’t run this family anymore!” Michael’s voice was sharp, his pride bristling. He hated being reminded of his age—it was his greatest fear.Carl’s tone was flat and unaffected. “Your health should come first.”Michael froze in his seat, his face turning pale with anger. But as a man who had managed the vast Grey family empire for years, he quickly regained his composure.He pulled out two documents and placed them in front of Carl, smoothly shifting the topic. “Here’s the list for the New Year’s gala invitations. Take a look.”Carl opened the list. It was almost identical to previous years—except for one addition: Susanne.“She’s your sister-in-law, after all,” Michael said coldly. “No matter what, she’s still part of the Grey family. Now that Linda is gone, it’s time for her to start contributing.”“Is that so?” Carl’s dark eyes locked onto Michael’s.Michael then gestured to the second document, his gaze sharp and calculating.

Carl sat silently through the night.At dawn, Ruby slowly opened her eyes. Seeing him still by her side, she felt both happy and guilty.Weakly, she said, “Carl, I’m sorry for making you stay with me all night.”Carl snapped out of his thoughts and slowly stood up. “I’ll get the doctor.”As he turned to leave, Ruby grabbed his hand.“Carl, I really like you. Can we be together? Of course, you can say no,” she said softly.Carl lowered his gaze to her, his expression unreadable. He gently pulled his hand away. “Let the doctor check on you first.”Watching him walk away, Ruby bit her pale lips, her eyes welling up.The doctor came to examine her and confirmed that she was out of danger. Soon after, she was transferred to a regular hospital room.Carl helped her lie down and said in a low voice, “Your brother will be here soon.”Ruby immediately grabbed his arm, her tone slightly anxious. “Carl, are you leaving?”“I got a message from home. I need to go back,” Carl replied, his
