I watched a tall man slowly appear in front of the hospital room door. He had a scar on his face, his eyes were full of hostility, and his tone was low.
“Karen, you’ve been so hard to find.”
Karen Lynn is more familiar with this voice than I am; she trembled immediately.
I couldn’t help but laugh at her terrified expression.
“What’s the matter? Can’t you even recognize your own husband’s voice?”
Zack Reaves is a major Director in the industry.
Nobody wanted to let this bombshell drop.
Instantly, news of Zack Reaves‘ return shot to the top of the trending searches.
Simultaneously, news of their marriage also went viral.
Karen Lynn still didn’t dare turn around. She gripped my hand, staring intently and asking,
“How did you know all this? Who are you, really?”
I smiled, offering no direct response.
“Happy now? I told you that the moment Kitten died, I wouldn’t let you go. And I meant it.”
Actually, my meeting Zack Reaves was purely coincidental.
After three failed attempts to win over Charlie Lewis, I’ve almost forgotten everything from
the book.
Until two days ago, a strange man contacted me through someone else’s contact
information and asked point–blank:
“Have you seen Karen Lynn?”
The System chimed in, reminding me that this man was the protagonist of the book, Zack
Reaves.
“She’s not only my wife, but also a fugitive wanted for murder abroad.”
I then learned that Karen Lynn was already married to Zack Reaves, and her return to pester
Charlie Lewis was solely in the hope that he would help her.
Now, I twisted Karen Lynn to face Zack Reaves.
“Go on, reunite with your real husband.”
No one dared to speak.
Just as Zack Reaves strode over to grab Karen Lynn, Charlie Lewis appeared and pulled her
back.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
Zack Reaves sized Charlie Lewis up and down, then sneered.
“After all these years, you still like being Karen’s lapdog.”
Charlie Lewis said darkly.
“This is a public area; you have no right to take her away.”
Karen Lynn was crying hysterically, clutching Charlie Lewis’s hand and refusing to let go.
“Save me!”

“Save me!”
Zack Reaves, not wanting to get involved, simply released the video he had.

The video showed several people gambling around a table, one of whom was Karen Lynn.
It was a booth in the corner of a bar, littered with empty bottles on the floor and table. Karen Lynn, her cheeks flushed from drinking, was shouting.
her.
“Roll them!”
The dice roll wasn’t what Karen Lynn wanted, and the dealer smiled, holding out his hands to
“Give me the money.”
Zack Reaves added from off–screen.
“At this point, Karen Lynn has already gambled away three million and has no money.”
Karen Lynn wasn’t her usual innocent, naive self; she was smoking a cigarette, her eyes filled
with impatience.
“I told you my husband would pay you. Why are you in such a rush?”
“He’s a famous director, a rich second–generation. He can afford to pay you back.”
But people who gamble aren’t known for being reasonable.
Seeing that Karen Lynn was hesitant to pay, the dealer leaned forward.
“Are you sure you’re not going to pay up now?”
His brother reacted instantly, staring intently at Karen Lynn, waiting for a command.
Then, the owner of the casino produced a photograph from his hand.
It was a nude photo of Karen Lynn.
“If you can’t come up with the money today, this photo will be all over the internet.”
Karen Lynn’s face paled instantly, and she instinctively reached out to snatch it.
“I told you, my fiancé has it. Get it from him!”
No one believed her. The owner’s friend even pinned her down on the table.
“Daring to play with us when you’re broke, bah!”
“Do it!”
The Manor Lord leaned back on the sofa as his friends pinned Karen Lynn down.
Karen Lynn struggled and screamed, only to be met with indifferent glances.
In a panic, Karen Lynn grabbed a knife from someone’s pants, steeled herself, and stabbed it into a person’s heart.
Blood stained half her face.
Taking advantage of everyone’s shock, she pushed the person away and fled that night.
