Vengeance Reborn: Making her Scumbag CEO Husband Pay with His Life Chapter 358
"What evidence?" Yvette asked eagerly.Wendy immediately opened a voice recording on her phone, showing a date from last Christmas.Back then, Renee and Wendy had been close friends, sharing everything.Suddenly, something dawned on Renee, her face turning ghostly pale, her clenched fists trembling.In her previous life, how could Wendy have stayed close to Annie just by playing the victim?She had been gathering evidence all along.The recording began."Renee, you're staring at the fireworks. Making a secret wish?""No." Renee's voice was nasal, showing the embarrassment of having her thoughts exposed."Your face is red! You're thinking about Mr. Grey again, aren't you?""Shh! Someone might hear! He's with someone else now.""It's just us talking. What were you thinking about?"Wendy kept pressing until Renee finally answered with a hesitant laugh."I wasn't making a wish. Just daydreaming about that family of three in front of us.""Oh~ So you want to marry Mr. Grey! An

Carl walked slowly to Wendy."Send me the recording later.""Yes." Wendy replied with tearful eyes, playing the victim. "Mr. Grey, I never thought Renee would be so crazy. I only came to beg her to stop plotting against me with others. I never imagined she'd use this to hurt Miss Simmons.""Who?" Carl's gaze turned sharp.Wendy hesitated: "Who what?""Who did she plot with? Give me names.""I..."Wendy's shoulders trembled.Just then, the operating room doors burst open, and the doctor rushed out."I'm sorry, Mr. Grey. We couldn't save the baby, and the patient needs an urgent blood transfusion due to severe bleeding."As he spoke, a nurse hurried past with blood bags.When Michael heard his grandchild was lost, rage overtook him. Forgetting all propriety, he grabbed a blood bag and hurled it at Renee's head."You've brought nothing but chaos to this family! I should have thrown you and your mother out the first time I saw you!"The blood bag burst when it hit the clip in

When Renee came back to her senses, she had already changed into clean clothes with help from Susanne and the nurse.The blood had been washed from her hair too.Her half-dry hair fell against her cheeks, beautiful in its brokenness, but her eyes were completely empty.Like a puppet with cut strings.Chris was carefully trimming the torn skin on her hand. Noticing her fingers twitch, he quickly reassured her: "Almost done, just hold on a bit longer."Renee nodded numbly and asked: "How's Annie?""Miscarriage, heavy bleeding, but she's stable now," Chris replied hesitantly.Hearing this, Renee clenched her jaw tightly, gripping the bed rail. She nodded, then shook her head."I didn't push her."Chris looked up in surprise, seeing the gray emptiness in her eyes, his heart aching for her."Actually..."Before he could finish, the door opened.Annie was wheeled in by Yvette, wrapped in a blanket, looking pale and exhausted.When she looked at Renee, her expression turned unexp

His presence was both magnetic and intimidating.Carl walked in.As he walked toward Renee, Annie suddenly wheeled herself forward, throwing herself into his arms."Carl, I'm fine. Don't blame Renee. I just came to talk to her, since we're getting married in a month.""There's nothing to discuss with her."Carl replied coldly, helping Annie back into her wheelchair.Annie frowned, leaning against Carl. "Don't be like that. We're still family after all.""We're not." Carl's eyes were emotionless."If we're not family, then she's just a stranger." Annie gave Renee a calculated look of concern.A chill ran down Renee's spine.A voice from another lifetime echoed in her mind."Renee, your eight years with Carl meant nothing compared to me. As soon as I came back, he couldn't wait to push you aside for me and our son. He even said...""He said he never considered you and your daughter family. You were always outsiders."Renee clutched her chest, gasping for air, her face turnin

As the last of the drug entered the IV line, the doctor's eyes gleamed with satisfaction.But in the next moment, his eyes widened in disbelief. Before he could even turn around, he collapsed like a powerless robot.As the doctor fell, he revealed the man standing behind him.Handsome, with a deadly aura.Carl wiped his hands: "Take him away."Jackson effortlessly dragged the man out with one hand.Finally, the room fell silent.Carl sat by the bed, carefully peeling back the tape on Renee's hand. The needle had never pierced her skin - it was just for show.He caressed her hand, studying her pale, peaceful sleeping face. Something deep flickered in his eyes before he lowered his gaze, hiding all emotion.He only gripped her hand tighter.After a long silence, he left when his phone vibrated.Carl knocked and entered Chris's office.Chris was smoking. Seeing Carl, he smiled bitterly."Sorry, if it weren't for Connor, none of this would have happened. I'm arranging for him

Chris jumped to his feet."No! Your injuries just healed, and you've barely rested since returning from Brookshire. Your body can't take it!""Go home. I've already switched to night shift. I'll keep watch, and don't you have your own people here anyway?"He gave Carl a gentle push.Carl rubbed his temples, grunted in agreement, and left the office....Late that night.Carl sat in his study, hands on the armrests, letting a cigarette burn down between his fingers. Smoke veiled his expression.The recording from Wendy played repeatedly on his phone."...So you secretly want to marry Mr. Grey! Have a family of three! Would you want a daughter or son?""A daughter.""A daughter...""A daugh..."When he first heard this recording, Carl felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.Even now, after countless replays, the feeling remained.Listening to Renee's clear, cautious voice, he closed his eyes.As he drifted off, he - who rarely dreamed - found himself standing before a hou

Carl stopped responding. Just as Chris was about to put his phone down, a sketch appeared."How about this?"Chris wondered what had gotten into Carl, commissioning artwork in the middle of the night.Still, he patiently opened the image.One glance left him frozen in shock.Standing alone in the empty hospital corridor made it even more unnerving, sending chills down his spine.He quickened his pace while replying."Exactly the same.""I thought it was young Renee at first, but now I see the difference - those eyes are identical to yours!"Chris closed his office door, taking a sip of water to calm himself.He'd always thought dreams were just illusions, but now... he wasn't so sure."I understand."Carl went silent.Chris was too spooked to sleep all night....The sedative helped Renee sleep well, and she felt less exhausted when she woke.Seeing her mother pouring drinks by her bed, she sat up quickly and grabbed Susanne's arm."Mom, I recognize that doctor.""Whi

After two weeks, her dedication and hard work became obvious, and her colleagues realized ignoring her was pointless.Gradually, everyone returned to their normal work routine.Until Annie reappeared.It was just two days before her wedding to Carl.She was dressed every bit the part of the Grey family's third wife, even her car and driver had been replaced with the Grey family's staff.She publicly blocked Renee's path, saying softly: "Renee, I want you to be my bridesmaid."Renee froze for a moment before pushing away her hand: "Sorry, I'm too busy. I can't be your bridesmaid.""Renee, I've explained to my fans that it was an accident. I don't blame you, and I don't want people thinking there's bad blood between us. Besides... your mother is part of the Grey family. Let's not make things difficult for them, okay?"Annie's seemingly understanding words were actually threats.Threatening her with online harassment, threatening her with Susanne.Renee laughed coldly: "No means

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
