A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 Firmly Outwitted Lord Malcolm 

The heavy breaths of the two echoed over the phone line. Bianca sensed his rising anger and frustration as Malcolm’s breath grew increasingly erratic. 

People said that spending enough time with someone allowed one to truly understand them, regardless of love or hate. 

And with Malcolm, Bianca had come to realize just that! 

“If there’s nothing urgent, Lord Malcolm, I’ll hang up!” 

The emphasis Bianca placed on “urgent” was evident in her tone. It was a subtle reminder to Malcolm that she was no longer just a number by his side, but was now his sister–in–law. 

By hierarchy and tradition, she should address him as Lord Malcolm. 

And he… should treat her with the respect she deserves. 

On the other end, Malcolm felt even more infuriated after Bianca disconnected the call. 

The recent events at the Jarvis family were still fresh in his mind, especially the graceful dance between Bianca and Zane. 

It was undeniable that the most talked–about people were Natalie and Clyde. However, the appearance of the mysterious seventh lord and his wife also caused quite a stir in Simeria. 

As the lights dimmed at Versant Villa, Malcolm’s expression grew darker. He finally stepped 

out of his car. 

Seeing this, Conrad was alarmed. “Lord Malcolm!! 

He exited the car and watched as Malcolm walked inside the villa with an air of coldness. 

around him. 

What was Malcolm…? 

Regardless, this place was Zane’s territory. They also had to consider Bianca’s current status! 

Conrad had to admit that everyone had underestimated Bianca before this. Not only did she possess an indomitable spirit, but she also had a sharp mind. In a short time, she had managed to outmaneuver Malcolm. 

“Lord Malcolm…” Conrad attempted to stop Malcolm. No matter how hateful Bianca was, she now had a special status. Besides, the Entes family was also going through something special now! 

Although there was no clear break between Malcolm and Zane for now, Malcolm would be pushing their relationship to an end if he did anything here! 

“Conrad, do you think our relationship can continue as it’s been?” Malcolm said coldly, just as Conrad was about to stop him. 

It was just a pretense on the surface that Malcolm and Zane got along. After what had happened tonight… there was no need to keep up the act anymore. 

When the butler saw Malcolm approach, he greeted him with respect. “Greetings, Lord 

Malcolm!” 

“Where are they?” 

The butler was stunned at Malcolm’s intimidating gaze but quickly pulled himself together and said, “Lord Zane has gone out.” 

Zane was out? 

With that revelation, it became clear that maintaining appearances was no longer necessary. 

However, the fact that Zane was still doing something at this hour… 

If someone were to tell Malcolm that Zane wasn’t up to something, Malcolm wouldn’t believe. 

1. it. 

“Zane has gone out? What about his wife?” 

The butler hesitated. He stole a glance at the clock, which indicated it was nearly one o’clock. 

“Lady Bianca has already retired for the night.” 

Summon her!” 

The butler fell silent at the demand. 

Since Malcolm couldn’t meet Zane, he wanted to see Bianca? At this hour?! 

After thinking for a long time, the butler anxiously said, “Lord Malcolm, that… doesn’t sound very appropriate.” 

After all, it was quite late. It didn’t matter why Zane and Bianca got married. It was still a fact that they were legally husband and wife. 

I word got out that Malcolm had met with Bianca at this hour…! 

The butler was older, hence he was more considerate about the implications of Malcolm’s visit. 

But Malcolm wasn’t in the mood for diplomacy. 

He coldly looked into the butler’s eyes and said, “If she doesn’t come down, I’ll go up to her 

+25 

The butler paled. “I’ll fetch Lady Bianca immediately.” 

Malcolm’s assertiveness was well–known among the Entes family members. If he had made up his mind, he wouldn’t leave until he met Bianca tonight. 

He was really a willful man! 

The butler felt a massive headache building as he went upstairs. 

Inside the room, Bianca was restless. She was fully aware of the impending confrontation. 

Just when she thought Malcolm had left, the butler’s voice called out, “Lady Bianca, are you asleep?” 

Bianca’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the butler’s voice. Knowing his discretion, she realized that his visit was urgent. 

“What is it?” Her voice, although controlled, betrayed a hint of tension. 

When he heard Bianca’s reply, the butler was visibly relieved. He had been afraid that Malcolm would really barge into Bianca’s room if she wasn’t awake. 

If that happened, the matter would only further escalate. 

The butler replied, “Lord Malcolm is downstairs waiting for you. He insists on seeing you.” 

His tone was unwavering and firm. 

A glint of determination flashed in Bianca’s eyes,
