“It must’ve taken a lot of effort to rack up this much debt during our marriage,” Kelly remarked, shaking her head. She had never imagined Eric could stoop this low.
“Kelly, I just want to have a real conversation with you,” Eric said, watching her carefully. “I know you’re out of money–you donated everything. I don’t need your money.”
Kelly leaned back in her chair, her gaze cold. “Then what do you want?”
“You should divorce Zev. He’s not the right man for you,” Eric insisted.
The thought of Kelly being with someone else was unbearable.
Kelly laughed at his remark. “Divorce? You’re way too invested in my business.”
She picked up the IOUS lying on the table and examined them closely. “If you want to sue me, go ahead.”
Eric’s expression darkened. “Kelly, are you purposely making things difficult?”
“That’s right.” She had no interest in arguing with him and continued sorting through her documents.
“I know you’re upset with me. But Regina needs a child, or she’ll stay behind bars. I have no plans to remarry her. If you leave Zev, just wait a little, and I’ll marry you instead.” His voice was urgent as he looked at her. “Do you even realize the mess you’ve created? Do you think switching hospital directors is good for you? You’re way too naive.”
Kelly suddenly straightened up and stared at him. “Don’t you have work to do? No patients to see today?”
Eric checked the time and realized he was running late. “Think about what I said. I’ll come back.”
Before stepping out the door, he turned back once more. “And stop posting those things. If you must, at least block me. Don’t be so heartless.”
His wounded expression made it seem like he was the one who had been wronged.
Kelly just found him ridiculous.
Heartless? Me?
Left alone at home, Zev pushed himself too hard with his rehabilitation exercises, desperate to reco quickly. He almost ended up injuring his fingers again.
Worried he’d overthink things if he stayed cooped up, Kelly asked him to go to the fresh market for some groceries.
“Are you Zev Lockhart?” Just as Zev was leaving the market, carrying bags of tomatoes and potatoes, a man in a suit approached him.
“Who are you?” Zev eyed him warily.

Zev scanned the papers and raised an eyebrow. “So she owes five million? What a joke. You might as well just rob us.”
His imposing demeanor made the lawyer instinctively step back. “Please don’t act rashly. Assault is against
the law.”
Zev scoffed. “Assault? If I did hit you, I’d have to call animal control.” Without hesitation, he tore up the document and tossed the pieces into the trash. “Tell Eric to bring this nonsense to me himself. Don’t bother my wife with it.”
The lawyer, clearly intimidated, gave a small nod before turning and hurrying away.
Zev cursed under his breath, muttering about Eric’s shamelessness. As he turned to leave, he bumped into
someone.
A backpack tumbled to the ground, spilling out stacks of crisp, newly withdrawn bills.
Grinning, the man met Zev’s gaze. “Hey, could you do me a small favor? Just drop something off for me, and all this cash is yours.”
Zev smirked, raising an eyebrow. “That depends. What’s inside?”
“It’s just a backpack. Take it over to the grocery store across the street. I can’t go there by myself.” The man extended the backpack toward Zev, along with a thick wad of bills. “Go ahead. The money’s yours once the job is done.”
Not far away, inside a black sedan, a camera lens focused on Zev and the man who had approached him.
“Dr. Gray, Zev is desperate for money right now. If we set this up properly, he’ll take the bait. The moment he carries that bag across the street, he’s done for. There’s contraband inside. If he doesn’t listen to me, he’ll be looking at a death sentence.”
The speaker was Andrew, the medical representative from before.
On the other end of the phone, Eric stayed quiet for a long moment before responding in a low voice, “Make sure this is handled properly.”
“Of course, Dr. Gray. Just sit back and watch.”
After ending the call, Andrew saved the recording of their conversation and smirked.
As long as he played along with Eric’s plans, no matter what it cost, Eric would owe him favors in the future.
Settling comfortably into his seat, Andrew shut his eyes, waiting for Zev to fall into the trap.
Across the street, Zev gripped the backpack and the stack of cash, sneering as he watched the man vanish into the distance.
He didn’t expect some people to try that kind of setup.
