Vengeance Reborn: Making her Scumbag CEO Husband Pay with His Life のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

She pressed her lips together without waiting for him to kiss her. Instead, she stood on her tiptoes and bit him first, sinking her teeth into the same spot where her previous bite mark was still faintly visible.Carl barely felt any pain, only letting out a slight click of his tongue, annoyed at being interrupted. Even as the healing wound started to bleed a little again, he seemed unfazed.It wasn't until Renee stopped biting and began to suck on the wound that his eyes darkened with intensity.So that's what she's planning.Renee released his neck and whispered angrily, "Uncle Carl, you should be more worried about explaining this to Annie."Carl tilted his head slightly, catching a glimpse of the fresh bite mark with a fresh hickey in the mirror. He raised an eyebrow."Are you part dog or something?"Renee turned her face away, tears welling up in her eyes and clinging to her lashes. Her stubborn gaze, now tinged with moisture, made her look vulnerable. It was hard to want t

As soon as Renee returned to school, she received a message from the director about submitting her project. She headed straight to the director's office and was surprised to find Annie already there, along with some other contestants from different grades.Originally, each grade was supposed to have one representative in the competition, but in their graduating class, there were two spots. After all, Carl had a lot of influence and power.Renee approached, but before she could say anything, the director began to scold her."Renee, you're the only one who hasn't submitted your work yet. Stop holding everyone back. Miss Simmons was the first to submit hers."Annie smiled modestly, and Renee knew exactly how Annie operated. If she argued, Annie would just start putting on an act. Renee didn't want to give Annie the satisfaction of putting on a show for everyone.So, she calmly said, "Sorry. I'll show it to you now."She opened her bag and took out her drawing board, but when she ope

Carl walked over to the window, opened it, and tossed a cigarette to his friend. He lit his own cigarette with one hand while his friend accepted the cigarette but didn't light it.His friend watched Carl through the swirling smoke and asked, puzzled, "Who exactly is this woman? She's important enough for you to personally accompany her? When Annie was hurt, you didn't even stay with her for one night. That morning, I saw you coming out of a different room. Was it hers?""Yeah," Carl replied bluntly.His friend nearly stumbled in surprise.He quickly walked over to face Carl and noticed the marks on Carl's collar. At first, he couldn't believe it, but upon closer inspection, he was stunned.Carl? With hickeys? Impossible!Carl had been with Annie for three years, and in all that time, there had never been any sign of physical affection between them—not even holding hands.His friend had known Carl since high school. While Carl went into finance, he pursued medicine, only to disc

"Why don't you give it a squeeze and see for yourself?" Renee suggested, her cheeks puffed out as she chewed on the rib.One of the roommates reached out to touch her, but another quickly pulled her hand back."Renee, thank you for coming. Our dorm was never complete before. We always envied the other dorms.""Yeah, and we never understood why you were always hanging out with Wendy. After all, she... Ow!""Nothing, let's just enjoy the meal," another roommate quickly intervened, trying to lighten the mood with a smile.Renee looked at them and smiled. "I know what you're trying to say. Honestly, I should be the one thanking you.""Why?" the more naive roommate asked, genuinely puzzled."I trusted the wrong person for so long, and yet you still invited me to this dinner. Thank you."And thank you for helping me in my past life."We're just glad you see it now. Wendy had a copy of your key and would often come to our dorm when you weren't around. She said you were okay with it,

Renee quickly grasped Wendy's hand, saying, "Of course, I forgive you. I know you didn't have a choice, and I trust you." Renee's smile was warm and genuine, despite the lingering scent of alcohol.Wendy nodded vigorously, but inwardly, she scoffed. How naive. She's still holding onto those small favors I did for her. No wonder she's so easily fooled!Putting on a concerned expression, Wendy asked, "Renee, I heard you're planning to withdraw from the competition? Honestly, it's fine. We can just focus on finding a stable job. No need to push yourself too hard.""Wendy, as my best friend, shouldn't you be encouraging me instead?""I... I'm just worried you're taking on too much, that's all. I didn't mean anything else," Wendy stammered."Speaking of the competition, I noticed someone tampered with my design drafts. You have a key to my dorm room, don't you?" Renee asked, probing her.Wendy immediately started to cry, looking aggrieved. "You think it was me? We've been friends for so man
