Rebirth In Divorce My New Mr. Perfect (by Summer Knowles) novel Chapter 659

Her story seemed fine on the surface, but when examined closely, there were major holes. Sarah began to feel uneasy and was about to stop.

The little girl immediately looked panicked and avoided Sarah's gaze. She clutched the edge of her shirt tightly and asked cautiously, "Are you not going to take me home anymore?"

Those clear, innocent eyes were enough to make Sarah waver, and indeed, she felt her resolve weakening.

"Sweetie, tell me exactly where on the hillside your home is," she suddenly asked.

The little girl's eyes darted around nervously. She lowered her gaze for a long time, thinking hard before looking up with tears in her eyes. “Missy, we're almost there. Look over there—where there's smoke rising, that's my home."

Looking into the distance, Sarah could indeed see a wisp of smoke rising from partway up the hillside. Through the dense forest, she could only make out a faint white shadow.

It wasn't too far from where they stood, but it wasn't particularly close either.

Sarah looked down and met the little girl's sincere gaze. After a moment's thought, she nodded at the child. "I'll take you there."

She didn't notice the little girl secretly sighing with relief behind her back.

As they walked through the dense forest, Sarah moved carefully, constantly checking on the little girl to make sure she didn't fall.

Just as they were about to enter what looked like a yard, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Sarah's arm. Another hand tried to cover her mouth.

The little girl who had led Sarah there ran away as soon as she saw what was happening.

"Charlie, if you kidnap me, Sanders Corp won't let you go. Even if you try to escape immediately, my cousin and his people will catch you in the next second."

Sarah's eyes were full of confidence. She knew that once this happened, there would never be a peaceful resolution. The chance she had given him disappeared the moment he decided to act.

"Stop the big talk. Don't forget you're alone now. I just need to make one move, and you'll have no way to resist." He edged closer to Sarah as he spoke.

Sarah watched him warily, her gaze slowly shifting to something behind Charlie, her expression growing complex. The next second, there was a dull thud, and Charlie collapsed to the ground.

"Why are you here?" Sarah asked in shock. She never expected Zachary to be the one helping her. How did he happen to be here at just the right moment?
