“Don’t take it the wrong way. You saved Faye, and there was just a small misunderstanding earlier. I actually need a driver, so I thought I’d offer you the job. The pay is good, Clarisspoke with a gentle smile, reaching out to pull Faye to her side.
However, Faye had no intention of going with her. She shrank back, hiding behind Kelly.
Clarissa’s expression stiffened slightly as she shot Faye a warning look.
Terrified, Faye clung tightly to Kelly’s hand.
“You want me to be your driver?” Zev let out a mocking laugh. “Are you even worthy of hiring me?”
Clarissa’s face darkened with displeasure. Trying to compose herself, she turned to Kelly and said, “I know we’ve had some conflicts before, and my father isn’t the director anymore. I want to apologize for how I treated you in the past. Meeting again today feels like fate, and you even saved Faye. Let me treat you to a meal-what do you say?”
“No, you must be up to something,” Kelly replied coldly, trying to push Faye toward Clarissa.
“No…” Faye, however, clung to Kelly tightly.
“Faye, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Your mother is back, and this is your aunt. Stay away from us–we can’t afford to get involved with you. Do you understand?” Kelly had no desire to deal with Faye any longer. Because of her false accusations, Zev had nearly been convicted of child molestation.
Tears welled up in Faye’s eyes. “I’m sorry…” she choked out, sobbing as she clung to Kelly even tighter. “Please don’t push me away. I don’t want to go home.”
Regina was pregnant again, and this time, she insisted it would be a boy. Since Dawn preferred sons over daughters, Faye had been somewhat tolerated when there was no grandson in the picture. But now that Regina was expecting another child, all of Dawn’s attention was on the unborn baby. Faye, having been spoiled all her life, couldn’t handle suddenly being treated as an afterthought.
“Clarissa, watch your niece.” Kelly frowned, trying to pry Faye off her.
Faye clung to Kelly, her grip tightening as she cried, “I don’t want to!”
Kelly felt a headache coming on. Faye’s stubbornness was definitely something she got from Eric.
Zev was equally frustrated. She was just a little girl–he couldn’t yell at her, scold her, or even push her away.
The only thing he wanted at that moment was to put as much distance as possible between himself and Faye.
Clarissa, watching the scene unfold, smiled as she tried to draw closer to Zev. “Zev, Kelly, it’s obvious that Faye likes you two. As her aunt, I should encourage that bond. Why don’t we all have a meal together? After that, I’ll take her home.”
She wore a flowing silk dress designed for comfort but also made her pregnancy visible. It hadn’t been long
since she conceived

Seizing the moment, Clarissa latched onto Zev’s arm. “Zev, please say something to Kelly, I genuinely want to be friends with her. Let’s just sit down for a meal. I mean it. Besides, I’m pregnant–I can’t stand around for too long. Won’t you at least consider it?”
She even softened her voice, trying to sound endearing.
Kelly let out a cold laugh. Clarissa and Regina were indeed sisters–their tactics for getting men’s attention were identical.
She recalled her time in university when she and Eric had been together. Back then, he had been a caring boyfriend, someone all her friends envied. She had felt lucky to have him.
But in their second year, Regina, who had just entered the university, set her sights on Eric. She constantly clung to him, touching his arm in public and acting sweetly spoiled. And Eric, for some reason, could never seem to resist.
Whenever Kelly got angry, Eric would brush it off, saying, “She’s just a junior. She’s young.”
He always had excuses for Regina.
Clarissa took a step closer to Zev, but he immediately recoiled, looking disgusted. “Stay away from me. I can’t stand filth.”
His sharp words were as ruthless as ever.
Kelly stared at Zev, surprised. She used to find his bluntness irritating, but right now, she actually appreciated it.
Clarissa’s expression darkened instantly. It was clear she was fuming, though she forced herself to stay composed.
With red–rimmed eyes, she put on a pitiful act, looking up at Zev. “We’ve just had too many misunderstandings. Kelly, can’t we talk this through? Maybe we could even be friends.”
“Forget it.” Kelly scoffed. She stepped protectively in front of Zev. “I’m more worried about you trying to steal my man. Take your niece and leave. There’s nothing for us to discuss. This isn’t a misunderstanding- it’s resentment.”
Realizing Kelly had no intention of playing nice, Clarissa gave up the act. She still had her pride, after all.
Her expression darkened as she turned to Faye. “Come here.”
But Faye refused.
Kelly, frustrated, pushed Faye forward, making her cry out.
She couldn’t do anything to Faye in public. Faye had just gone through the ordeal of being locked in a car, and she was scared.
Kelly shot Clarissa an annoyed look. “Call Eric and Regina. They’re so careless, leaving Faye locked inside a car. Do they even want her anymore?”
