At the hospital entrance, Zev, who had been pulled along the whole way, chuckled. “Honey, were you just trying to provoke Eric, or did you really mean what you said?”
His grin widened–after all, his wife had just praised him for being more handsome than Eric.
Kelly answered seriously, “From an objective standpoint, your looks and physique are flawless.”
Looking pleased with himself, Zev stole a quick kiss on her check when no one was watching. “I belong to you.”
If he had a tail, it would’ve been wagging by now.
Kelly froze for a second, her face flushing. She hadn’t expected him to kiss her in public.
“Get lost!” she muttered, her ears burning as she hurried away.
Zev happily followed after her, letting her drag him along.
Meanwhile, a sleek black Mercedes sat parked nearby.
Still basking in Kelly’s compliments, Zev didn’t even notice the car belonged to the Lockharts.
Inside, Wade’s expression darkened as he watched them walk away. He slammed his fist against the seat. “So that woman is Kelly? The one with no manners? Ken, you’ve kept this from me! I couldn’t see clearly in the video, but now it’s obvious–my grandson ended up with a rude, scheming, shameless woman!”
Ken adjusted his glasses and replied calmly, “Mr. Wade, even if you don’t trust your judgment, you should at least trust Zion’s. If Kelly were as terrible as you claim, would he be so devoted to her?”
It was clear to everyone that Zev was the one chasing after Kelly.
But Wade refused to believe it.
He was convinced Kelly had seduced Zion.
“Hmph! You’ve never interacted with that woman. You have no idea what kind of person she really is- completely uncultured!” Wade snapped. “Anyone else would be fine, but not Kelly! Find a way to make her leave Zion!”
“Mr. Wade, I strongly advise against interfering,” Ken warned with a frown.
Wade’s eyes narrowed. “What? Are my words meaningless now? Or do you think it benefits you to let that woman ruin Zion?”
Ken stiffened, his fingers slowly curling into fists.
He knew Wade never fully trusted him. No one did. And this time, he had spoken too much.
He should’ve stayed out of it.
“You’re overthinking things,” Ken said, gripping his hands tightly.

On their way back from the hospital, Kelly walked along the sidewalk, her fingers intertwined with Zev’s.
Suddenly, a thin hand banged desperately on a car window.
“Kelly!” a small voice called out. “Kelly, help me!”
Kelly stopped and turned to see a young girl trapped inside a red car parked on the roadside.
“Kelly, please save me!”
It was Faye.
Kelly glanced at Faye but kept walking, gripping Zev’s hand tightly.
“Kelly, please… “Faye’s voice grew weaker.
The heat was unbearable, and the car’s windows were shut. Sweat drenched her forehead–she had clearly been asleep inside for a while.
“Kelly… save me…”
Faye slumped against the window, her tearful eyes pleading.
Kelly hesitated, then spun back around and yanked at the car door, but it wouldn’t budge.
She called Eric, but Regina answered instead.
“You b*tch! Why are you calling Eric? Don’t you dare call again!”
Kelly sighed. Regina was truly unhinged.
Honestly, falling for Eric was her misfortune–sooner or later, he was bound to drive her mad.
Kelly hung up and called the police instead.
“Hello, I need assistance. There’s a red Mercedes–Benz E300 parked outside Seaville Hospital. The license plate starts with SV–A. A young girl is trapped inside. Please send help immediately.”
The police arrived quickly, taking photos and videos before breaking the window to rescue Faye.
She was drenched in sweat, sobbing uncontrollably. “I fell asleep in the car … Mommy’s gone!”
Regina had completely forgotten about her daughter.
“Mommy only cares about the baby in her belly. She doesn’t want me anymore,” Faye whimpered, her voice trembling.
Once Kelly saw that Faye was safe, she turned to leave with Zev.
Just then, a Porsche pulled up beside them.

“You and your sister are both insane.” Kelly had no interest in arguing with Clarissa and simply took Zev’s hand, ready to leave.
Zev shot Clarissa a disgusted glare.
“No, Kelly saved me,” Faye said firmly, clearly wanting nothing to do with Clarissa. She turned away and ran straight into Kelly’s arms.
Clarissa glanced at Zev, putting on a convincing act as she smiled apologetically. “I overreacted. I didn’t realize you were the one who saved her.”
Zev paid her no attention.
“You’re Zev, right? I heard you’re currently unemployed. I happen to need a driver. The pay is flexible, and we can discuss the benefits. Interested?” her tone had completely changed, suddenly warm and inviting.
Kelly narrowed her eyes at Clarissa’s flirtatious expression, growing suspicious. Was Clarissa actually trying to steal her man?
Clarissa, meanwhile, acted as though Kelly wasn’t even standing there.
