Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 272 Now And In The Future

“Let go of me!” Cynthia detected a foreign scent on him, a sickly sweet perfume, and noticed a lipstick mark on his neck. The red streak on his rumpled clothes hinted at the intensity of their encounter.

Cynthia struggled, her gaze filled with undisguised disgust.

“Are you jealous?”

Cynthia’s nails scraped across his face, tearing a layer of skin from the devilishly handsome man. Zachary released his grip in pain, a shadow of gloom crossing his face. Cynthia angrily stood up from his lap, straightened her clothes, and slapped him. “Keep your filthy hands off me!”

Zachary’s face was knocked to the side, but instead of getting angry, he laughed. “That was too light. I would prefer a harder hit.”

His gaze, hungry and aggressive, brimmed with excitement.

Cynthia frowned, regarding him as if he were insane. “Let’s pretend that the previous two incidents never happened. Even if you threaten me with those photos, I won’t give in.” She took a deep breath. “It’s only because you and Stefan are brothers that I’m speaking to you calmly right now. You’re free to seek other women to satisfy your needs, but I am your sister-in-law now and in the future!”

She was determined not to divorce Stefan, no matter what.

Zachary caressed his face with his thumb as he watched her leave. Seeing the trace of blood on his fingertip, he began to laugh as if he had lost his mind.

The sound of his laughter echoed, making Cynthia feel nauseous. She quickened her pace and pressed the elevator button to go downstairs.

Seeing the man waiting in a wheelchair by the door, Cynthia quickly composed herself and walked over.

Stefan wore a mask, and Cynthia stepped forward to adjust his scarf. “I’ve already spoken to Zachary about Dad’s situation. He will take care of it.”

“You don’t have to force yourself to stay if you want to leave,” Stefan said.

“Wherever you go, I’ll be there. We’re husband and wife, aren’t we?” Cynthia replied.

“If I don’t recover in six months, I’ll agree to a divorce. You’ll receive half of the Xenos family’s wealth, and it won’t affect your chances of remarrying.”
