Rebirth: Fast Track Love

Chapter 3 Misunderstanding

It was the first time that Sara had been slandered like this. Panicked, she straightened up, keeping her face and voice calm. "Lady, I really don't know who your husband is. You're mistaken. I didn't--"

"Are you for real?" Caroline interrupted, her voice as loud as ever. Caroline didn't expect Sara would still dare to defend herself. It made her even a lot angrier. "You really don't know who my husband is? Humph! How dare you lie to me! Maybe you don't remember him anymore because you've slept with so many other men?"

"Lady, please show some respect! You've gone too far. It's a crime to slander people like this. You are fabricating false information, assuming my personality and morals, and destroying my reputation! Defamation can earn you three solid years in jail. That's criminal detention, public surveillance or deprivation of political rights! Do you really want to go through all of that? I don't know you nor your husband! I have nothing to do with you both!" Sara said helplessly.

P County was remote and people there didn't receive a good education, so they admired those well- educated people. Although they didn't quite understand what Sara had just said, they felt that what she was talking about was quite persuasive.

At that moment, the people who were listening in to the two women suddenly started to doubt the authenticity of Caroline's claim. Would such a beautiful and graceful woman really seduce other people's husbands?

Everyone's eyes fell on Caroline. She was wearing a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and her purple dress stank with money. It was easy to guess what kind of person her husband was from her appearance!

"She seems very rich! Why would she seduce that woman's husband? Is that woman crazy?"

"I heard that the woman's daughter hit her daughter's head with a flower pot. I guess that the woman was afraid that the lady would ask her to pay for the compensation, so she started attacking her like

this!"

Hearing that everyone was suddenly on Sara's side, Caroline got very angry. "Slander?" Caroline scoffed anxiously, "You're now claiming that I'm slandering you? Go call the cops and try to get me arrested then! I'm not afraid of you! You bitch! To refresh your memory, my husband is the director of the famous building factory in our county! Are you sure you didn't seduce my husband?"

When she heard the words "director of the building factory", a fat and plump face appeared in Sara's mind. She was stunned for a second. She did not expect that the woman in front of her was George Wang's wife.

Seeing that Sara was stunned, Caroline seized the chance and scolded, "Aha! Now you remember! I didn't slander you, did I! You bitch! You want to seduce my husband just because he is rich! I'm going to hit you so hard you wish you were never born!"

In one swift movement, Caroline raised her hand and reached out to grab onto Sara's hair.

"Stop!"

"Please stop!"

Two people cried out in unison.

The man with Sara suddenly appeared behind Caroline and caught her arm, pulling her back.

With his hand around her wrist, he pushed Caroline aside, putting himself right in between her and Sara. "Sara, are you hurt?" he asked, looking up and down at her anxiously.

When Wendy saw the middle-aged man look at her mother with such worried eyes, she felt her heart skip a beat.

"Who are you! Were you also seduced by this bitch? Do you want to act a hero to save the beauty?" roared Caroline. When Caroline managed to stand up, she saw the man and Sara snuggling together. The sight of them made her grit her teeth in fury.

Holding Sara's arm, Derek Xie looked back at Caroline. "Excuse me, but if you have any problems with this lady, please communicate your concerns in a better way," he said sternly. "This is a hospital. All this commotion is not good for the other patients here. From your behavior, I have some serious doubts on how well-educated you are."

"Get out of my way! What do you know? Mind your own business!"

"She is my wife. Our daughter was almost brain-dead because of your daughter. And now you came here to say such awful things about my beloved wife. As a husband and a father, I say that it is very much my business! Who do you think I am?" Derek sneered with an iron face. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

'What? His wife and daughter? He's that bitch's husband?!' Hearing this, Caroline's face stiffened.

Looking carefully at the man, Caroline examined the straight black suit he was wearing, and the watch on his wrist was quite exquisite. This man was definitely not at the same level with all the men in the county! The more she looked at them, the more she felt that they were a perfect match!

'Did I make a mistake? The man looked very rich and handsome. If she has such a perfect husband, why would she even bother seducing mine? It must be my lascivious husband who caused this terrible misunderstanding!' Caroline thought to herself.

Meanwhile, Wendy was still just quietly lying on the bed. When she heard the words "wife" and "daughter", her hands grabbed the sheets tensely.

This man... was her father! The father she had never seen in her previous life! Where was he when she was sick! Where was he when she and her mother were bullied abroad! Where was he when they were

dying!

No! This man did not deserve to be her father. She did not have such a father. She only had a mother!

Dumbfounded by Derek Xie, Caroline was speechless. "Your wife seduced my husband. This bitch made you a cuckold," Caroline finally said after a while.

"Impossible," Derek Xie said without any hesitation.

Hearing the answer from Derek Xie, Sara breathed a sigh of relief and calmed herself down.

"Hey, what are you doing? Oh my! Mr. Derek, nice to meet you. I'm George Wang, the director of the building factory." Although his body was rather round, George Wang walked quickly to the front of Derek and extended his hand respectfully.

Derek turned around and looked at him coldly. He didn't raise his hand but raised his eyebrow at the stocky man. "Your wife said that my wife seduced you. Is this true? Huh?" Derek asked coldly.

George looked at the beautiful woman standing next to Derek. When he saw clearly who she was, he was panicked and cursed in his mind. Then he turned his head and glared at Caroline.

When she saw her husband's attitude towards that man as soon as he came in, Caroline knew that she had made trouble today. As George glared intensely at her, she immediately lowered her head with guilt.

Looking at Derek's cold face, George chuckled awkwardly. "Mr. Derek, it's just a misunderstanding. You will have to excuse my wife. Please forgive her. She is just a woman with little education."

Listening to what George said, Caroline felt embarrassed. She didn't say anything else and kept her head lowered.

Derek put his arm around Sara's shoulder and sighed, "Well, since you have said so, we can let it go. But my daughter's injury..."

"Mr. Derek, I'm so sorry. My girl had done a very bad thing. I will make sure she learns her lesson as soon as I see her! I will pay the medical fee for your daughter soon," George said politely, giving Caroline a quick wink.

As soon as Caroline got the hint, she quickly said, "Yes, our daughter has such a bad temper. We will let her know that she did a very bad thing."
