Chapter 49

Penulis: Summer Knowles
When Mrs. Chancer recognized who had arrived, she couldn’t help but feeling nervous. Zachary Reynolds was the East Coast's most powerful heir - not someone the Chancers could afford to offend.

She discreetly glanced at the blurry surveillance video, reassuring herself that the man in it was unidentifiable.

Perhaps Lucy was right - someone of his status would only be playing with someone like Sarah. How could such a distinguished man seriously consider a divorced woman?

This thought calmed her. Her Lucy was well-bred and highly educated, far superior to Sarah. Given the chance, Lucy could definitely secure someone as prestigious as Zachary.

Right now, her task was to completely discredit Sarah. Not only did she need to confirm the allegations of infidelity during marriage, but she also had to make Mr. Reynolds distance himself from Sarah. With so many people present and men being concerned about their reputation, Mr. Reynolds was unlikely to step forward to defend Sarah.

  • Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect   Chapter 1021

    Zachary itched to run onto the dance floor and pull her away, but something about Sarah’s movements felt… off. Her steps were fluid, but the way she carried herself—it was subtly, unmistakably wrong.As the event finally wound down, Leon took off his blazer and gently draped it over Sarah’s shoulders. “The car’s on its way.”Sarah gave a curt nod, clutching the jacket around her tightly.Zachary stood frozen, watching her. That petite frame, swallowed up in his coat—it was wrong. Everything about it was wrong.He snapped.Without warning, Zachary lunged forward, grabbed Sarah’s wrist, and bolted.The move was so sudden that even James—who’d been standing right beside him—had no time to react. In the blink of an eye, Zachary had whisked Sarah halfway across the plaza.Leon’s voice exploded behind them. “Zachary Reynold, get the hell back here!”He took off after them, fury in his eyes, a pack of reporters hot on his heels.Zachary didn’t look back. He just tightened his grip

    Zachary’s face was unreadable, as always. He gave nothing away, so the cameras didn’t linger. To the press, his calm reaction was just par for the course.Elsewhere, Leon handed Sarah a glass of champagne. “What did you say to Zachary?”He tried to sound casual, but it was clear he cared. He couldn't ignore their history, no matter how much he pretended otherwise.Sarah took the glass and replied softly, “He said some weird things. Asked why I wasn’t wearing the watch anymore. Asked if someone was threatening me. What else do you want to know?”Leon’s expression flickered. He remembered the watch on her wrist before, but now it was gone.“Where is it?” His voice tightened as he locked eyes with her.Sarah looked away, fingers gripping the stem of her glass until her knuckles turned white. She bit her lip and muttered, “I threw it out.”Leon’s tone darkened. “He gave it to you, didn’t he?”She nodded. “Yeah.”Leon’s jaw tensed. He clinked his glass against hers, then after a pa

    The moment the words left her mouth, Steven lost it.“No, Scarlett—you’re wrong!” he shouted hoarsely. “Without you, I might still be breathing, but I’d be nothing more than a hollow shell.”Scarlett let out a tearful laugh, one so bitter it barely resembled joy. She was exhausted, inside and out, but still forced herself to plead with him.“Steven… please, just promise me you’ll live a good life.”Steven’s face suddenly went blank. He got to his feet slowly and began walking toward the balcony step by step.“Then let me stay with you,” he said softly. “Wherever you go, I’ll go. Even if it’s hell, I’ll be right there.”That broke her.The emotions she’d been holding back exploded all at once. She broke down completely, sobbing like a child.Steven rushed forward and pulled her down from the ledge. His arms tightened around her trembling frame as he whispered, “It’s okay now, Scarlett. You’re okay. I’ve got you…”Scarlett tried to fight him off but couldn’t escape his hold. So

    But even as Scarlett tried to stay cold toward Steven, she was slowly tearing herself apart.Just the thought of him leaving someday, of another woman being the one in his arms, made it hard to breathe. Her heart, already covered in scars, felt like someone was rubbing salt into the wounds.One gray afternoon, she stood on the balcony under a heavy sky and let out a tearful, bitter laugh.She had made up her mind. It was time to let go, for both of them.If she disappeared completely, Steven would eventually forget her. Time could fix anything. Right?Inside, Steven was icing his face, trying to clear his head and get his strength back. He gave himself a pep talk, then turned to head back to the bedroom to be by her side.But just then, he heard a dull thump from inside the room—something heavy hitting the floor.His heart stopped.He bolted.Scarlett had climbed onto a high stool and was reaching for the balcony wall when the door swung open and slammed into the wall behind h

    Steven stood there, watching her slender back with a forced smile still hanging on his lips.Without saying a word, he quietly packed up the dishes he had so carefully prepared and wheeled the cart out of the room.It wasn’t until the door clicked shut behind him that Scarlett finally turned around. Tears were already pouring down her face.“I’m sorry, Steven... I’m so sorry…” she whispered over and over again, one hand clamped over her mouth as she cried silently.She couldn’t be this selfish. If he stayed by her side, stuck in this in-between, he’d never move on. Better to let him go. Let him live.In the kitchen, Steven dumped the now-cold food into the trash. The sight of all that effort—flavors and colors turned into a sad, soggy mess—made him laugh. A low, broken laugh that scraped at his throat.“Pathetic,” he muttered bitterly. “You’re so damn useless.”From that day on, it was like Scarlett had frozen her heart again.She sat by the window, staring out at the same stre

    Today, Steven had gone out of his way to make Scarlett’s favorite dish, spicy buffalo wings. He kept the heat mild, though, since she was still recovering.He’d gotten up early to prep everything from scratch. By the time the dishes were done, he carefully wheeled the food cart toward the bedroom, his nerves more tangled than when he first fell in love.As the door creaked open, the familiar aroma drifted into the room. Scarlett, who had been staring blankly into space, suddenly froze. A few seconds later, she couldn’t help but turn around.Steven’s face lit up with a gentle, hopeful smile as he took a few slow steps toward her. “Scarlett, do you remember this?”She lowered her gaze to the dish. The rich, savoury wings were perfectly plated, still steaming. Her nose stung.That painful, bitter present suddenly melted into memory.She remembered it vividly—back when things between them were still sweet. Steven had his faults, sure. He’d snap at her, lose his temper. But he never o
