Chapter 245 rissa Uses Wade''s Authority to Bully Others


    Wade was furious, and she had already convinced him. He didn''t believe for a second that Kelly''s son was of the Lockharts blood. So, if Zev threw a tantrum on his first day at thepany, Wade certainly wouldn''t indulge him.


    That was why rissa was so fearless.


    Zev narrowed his eyes, shooting a dangerous look at rissa.


    "Zev." Kelly''s voice came from behind him.


    It was the first time she had called him by that name. It felt a little awkward.


    Zev was momentarily stunned. He turned to look at Kelly, and the concealed emotions in his gaze instantly cleared. He spoke in surprise, "You came in."


    Kelly smiled at him and lifted the lunchbox in her hand. "It should be your lunch break soon, right?"


    "Not yet; I was just touring the HR department." Zev pulled her into his arms. "Perfect timing. I''ll show you around thepany."


    The corners of his lips curled upward as he looked smugly at rissa.


    rissa was on the verge of exploding with rage. She turned furiously to the nervous security and reception staff who had followed her.


    But they were helpless.


    It was Ken who had allowed her in.


    Ken stood calmly to the side, indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.


    "Zev ..." Before he could say anything, rissa spoke first, desperate to salvage her dignity.


    But Zev was already being merciful by not crushing herpletely. "Come on, let me introduce someone. This is my wife-my legal wife. We got married two years ago and even have a son."


    He was just shy of pulling out their marriage certificate for everyone to see.


    "My wife is beautiful, isn''t she?" Zev asked the HR manager smugly.


    The HR manager was utterly stunned, ncing back and forth between rissa and Kelly. What ... is going


    on?


    Not just the HR manager-the entire department was in an uproar.


    Was the Lockhart Group''s future heir already married? And the so-called fiancée was nothing more than a joke?


    rissa''s face turned deathly pale. She clenched her fists tightly. "Zev, you''d better think about how you''re going to exin this to Grandpa!"

    Ken stepped forward and spoke gently, "Let me show you and Kelly around thepany."

    As they passed by the HR department, Ken lowered his voice while no one was around. "You really need to think about how to handle Mr. Wade. rissa has definitely gone to call for reinforcements."


    Wade felt guilty toward rissa, so he would surely step in to support her.


    That meant he would back rissa within the Lockhart Group.


    Zev didn''t say anything, only tightening his grip on Kelly''s hand.


    Sure enough, as soon as they reached the tech department, they saw rissa striding in with Wade, his assistant, and a group of people trailing behind them. The tension in the air was palpable.


    Zev nced at Kelly. "Don''t be afraid."


    Kelly nodded.


    Wade stormed over, his anger clear in his expression. But he didn''t bother maintaining the dignity of thepany''s future "heir” in front of the employees. "Zion! Who gave you permission to bring irrelevant people into thepany during working hours? I don''t care if you keep a mistress outside, but bringing her here-you better think twice!"


    In order to protect rissa, Wade had actuallybeled Kelly as a mistress.


    Kelly let out a mocking chuckle. Why didn''t he just go ahead and call her a homewrecker?


    Zev''s expression darkened as he stared at Wade. "So you don''t mind me keeping a mistress? No wonder rissa was so eager to be one, even knowing I''m married. Grandpa, you''re really generous to me. But I only need my wife, and one is enough. Any more, and I wouldn''t be able to handle it."


    He positioned himself protectively in front of Kelly, ncing at the crowd of employees who had gathered to watch the spectacle. Then, he made a point to introduce her. "She''s my wife. We''ve been legally married for a long time."


    Wade''s chest heaved with fury. "Zev, get back to my office with me. Now!"


    Publicizing family scandals is inappropriate-at the very least, Wade still cared about his reputation.


    "I haven''t finished touring thepany yet. Workes first." With that, Zev pulled Kelly along, ready to leave.


    "If she wants to be part of the Lockharts, if she wants that little bastard of hers to join our mily- absolutely not." His tone was unwavering. “Unless she agrees to take the child for a paternity test."


    He turned his gaze toward Kelly, certain that she wouldn''t dare go through with it.


    "I will never let you take my son for a paternity test," Kelly responded firmly. The child was still young, and Wade''s doubts would only hurt him. Besides, her son didn''t need to inherit any so-called billion-dor Lockhart Group fortune. As long as his father acknowledged him, that was all that mattered. The opinions


    of others were irrelevant.

    "None of your damn business. If you''ve got the guts, bring me your son''s paternity test results—I''ll take a look. Zev reached out, signaling rissa to hand over the


    test.


    rissa clenched her fists and looked at Kelly. "If she''s willing to take the child for


    a paternity test, I''ll go. If you''ve got the guts, let''s do it together."


    She was certain that Kelly wouldn''t dare.


    "Shameless fool, get over here with me right now!" Wade red angrily at the onlooking employees. "Get back to work! Ken, bring him to my office! Anyone who


    is irrelevant, get out!"


    It was obvious-Kelly was the "irrelevant" person.
