Rebirth In Divorce My New Mr. Perfect (by Summer Knowles) novel Chapter 621

Charlie suddenly slammed his fork on the table. "You think I'm giving you face by letting you talk this much trash about me? I don't believe this! Every month I give you my salary, and somehow there's not a penny left? Get out all the money you've been hiding right now!"

Mrs. Wesler hadn't expected such a violent reaction. She froze, looking to her in-laws for help, but they continued eating without changing expression, as if they were used to such scenes.

Sarah took another bite of vegetables, avoiding Zachary's eyes and staring at his hand instead. Those long, well-defined fingers holding the fork hadn't paused despite the argument.

Then Charlie slapped his wife hard across the face, knocking her to the floor.

Only then did Zachary move to stop Charlie, while Sarah helped Mrs. Wesler up.

Mrs. Wesler looked at him in disbelief. "Charlie! You gamble away all our money and then blame me! You hit me! Heaven will punish you for this cruelty!"

Charlie felt his forehead pulsing as his wife's words grew louder and louder until they consumed him completely.

His mind went blank. He pushed Zachary aside, walked up to his wife, and delivered another slap that Sarah couldn't prevent.

Both slaps had been delivered with full force. Mrs. Wesler's face was swelling badly as she looked at Charlie in terror, afraid his hand would rise again.

"Worthless woman! Let's see if you dare speak like that again!"

When Sarah tried to help Mrs. Wesler, she too was pushed aside, only to be caught by Zachary.

After the chaos, Mrs. Wesler became submissive, not daring to speak as she cleared the table despite her pain.

Charlie, acting apologetic, invited Zachary to sit again. "Bro, please sit. These women only listen when you beat them."

Sarah's eyes turned cold. In this isolated village, people without higher education still clung to the belief that women must marry and then serve their husbands and raise children.

Even if a woman considered rebellion, she would be beaten until she forgot such thoughts.

What puzzled Sarah was why Zachary would associate with such a terrible person and even come to dine at the Wesler home.
