Semua Bab Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect: Bab 1021 - Bab 1030

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

Mandy just gave a soft laugh. Her eyes were sincere as she looked at Sarah and said, “You grew up with everything handed to you, probably never even knew what it felt like to go hungry, right? But if becoming someone else means I get to eat, and more than that, have the strength to take care of my family, then why wouldn’t I do it?”She smiled faintly, voice steady. “Some people fight tooth and nail just to get where your life starts. You don’t know what it’s like to come home to little siblings begging with their eyes, or aging parents holding out their hands hoping for food. I’ve only lost my face and my voice, but in return, I’ve seen a world I never even dreamed of. I’ve tasted what it’s like to have something. That’s enough for me.”She paused, then added, “So honestly? I should be thanking you. I guess looking like you is my stroke of luck. So… thanks, Miss Sanders.”Sarah blinked, momentarily thrown off. She had expected Mandy to be a pawn, someone just repeating Vivian’s w

Vivian didn’t bother hiding the truth. Watching the pain on Sarah’s face filled her with twisted satisfaction. “That’s right. As long as he’s alive, Scarlett’s nightmares will never end.”Sarah’s voice was tight. “So what are you planning to do to him?”Vivian smirked. “We don’t need to do anything, really. As long as we hold onto that footage, what do you think he’s going to do?”Again with the surveillance video—that dirty, disgusting footage of Scarlett’s assault.Sarah’s expression shifted. Seeing the annoyance rising in Vivian’s eyes, she suddenly said, “Do you know why Zachary never loved you?”“Shut up, you bitch! If it weren’t for you, he would’ve loved me! I don’t need your damn opinion!”But Sarah ignored her outburst and calmly went on. “It’s because you keep hurting the people around him. Like Mia. Like his grandfather. And now Steven.”“Shut up!” Vivian snapped, completely unraveling.She stormed out of the room for air, her nerves fraying, and only returned after

After she’d cried herself dry, Scarlett made a decision.For Steven’s sake, she had to pull herself together. It was time to stop clinging to the past and start over.Back at the abandoned apartment building, Sarah stayed still as the knife pressed cold and sharp against her neck. The blade felt like it could cut straight through her skin. Vivian’s fingers were trembling.“Don’t make a sound,” Vivian ordered in a low, strained voice.They remained frozen like that for nearly an hour. Vivian’s arms were shaking from the tension. She finally eased the knife away, thinking perhaps Melvin had given up and left.But just as she let her guard down, Sarah shoved her with all her strength. Then she grabbed a rock from the floor and hurled it at the window.Crash!The glass shattered, the sound slicing through the air like a gunshot. Vivian’s ears rang. Her eyes went bloodshot as she whipped around and glared at Sarah, only to hear the unmistakable sound of footsteps racing up the stairs

Vivian collapsed to the floor, stunned. She couldn’t believe she’d been exposed like that. The diamond ring on her finger suddenly felt like it was burning a hole through her hand.Leon had already walked a few steps away when he seemed to remember something. He turned back, grabbed her wrist.“What are you doing?” Vivian snapped, instinctively shielding her hand. “What do you want?”“You don’t deserve to wear this ring,” Leon said coldly.Tears streamed down Vivian’s face. She fought hard, but she was no match for Leon’s strength. He tore the ring from her finger and shoved her aside.Just last night, he had proposed. Now it felt like that moment had never existed—just a fleeting dream that had already vanished.—Meanwhile, back in South City, Sarah stared blankly at Melvin, her eyes dull and lifeless. She knew Vivian wasn’t going to let her walk away. Not after all these years.Vivian had made up her mind to kill her three years ago. A few words from Melvin weren’t going to
