    Kelly looked at Zev as she carried Shane to the car. "So why does Mr. Wade trust Ken so much?"


    "Can''t you tell? He''s just an old fool. What can Ken do if someone like rissa can trick him?" Zev snorted, starting the car and driving off.


    Shane huddled tightly in Kelly''s arms, terrified that he might be abandoned.


    "Shane was full of suspicion in his eyes.


    The following day, rissa showed up.


    She was eager to get rid of Shane, pushing him onto Zev so he could raise him.


    She signed the agreement, acknowledging that she couldn''t provide for the child. She voluntarily agreed to ce him with Zev and Kelly. Afterward, she submitted the custody paperwork.


    With that, Zev was officially granted custody of Shane. It was entirely up to him where Shane would live.


    But rissa was too confident, thinking Zev wouldn''t dare register the child elsewhere because public opinion wouldn''t allow it.


    Shawn had returned to Seaville to take over the Wagner''s business, and the Lockharts weren''t in their prime.


    Zev, wanting to stabilize the Lockharts business and avoid beingbeled a failure, had to care about public opinion.


    Wade was even more concerned.


    But this time, rissa made a mistake.


    As soon as rissa left, Zev had Caden bring over the paternity test report to take custody of the child.


    With the mother abandoning him and the father stepping in, it was only natural. If rissa ever wanted to take Shane back, it would be impossible.


    "Zev, from now on, this is our son. We''ll raise him together," Caden said proudly, patting Zev''s shoulder.


    Because of Shane''s presence, Sidney wasn''t strict with him.


    "Kid," Caden chuckled, holding Shane in his arms. "Call me ''Dad'', let''s hear it." Shane looked terrified, still thinking Caden was some human trafficker. "Dad." And with that, Shane started crying, reaching out to Zev forfort.


    Zev chuckled, pulling Shane into his arms and teasing Caden. "You really do look like a human trafficker."


    Caden wasn''t having any of it. He took off his sunsses, striking a cool pose as he looked at Shane. "Shane, I''m your dad."


    Shane clung tightly to Zev''s neck, refusing to look at Caden.


    "Alright, alright," Caden huffed, still acting cocky. "I was even thinking of taking you and Jasper to the

    amusement park, but never mind now."


    Shane''s cars twitched, and he looked up at Caden.

    Caden noticed and smiled, continuing, "Your mom doesn''t want you anymore. From now on, Kelly, Zev, and I are your parents, okay?"


    Caden was the kind of person who didn''t know when to stop. When he mentioned rissa not wanting him, Shane almost started crying again, curling up against Zev''s neck and ignoring Caden.


    "Are you out of your mind? What are you telling the kid?" Zev kicked Caden''s lég, then startedforting Shane. "From now on, Kelly is your mom."


    Shane nodded obediently.


    "Then, when Kelly rests, we''ll take you and Jasper to the amusement park, okay?" Zev asked softly.


    Shane nodded again, still being very good.


    Caden watched Zev, surprised at how much fatherly love Zev was showing. He


    had never imagined that Zev, of all people, could be this affectionate.


    In the past, Caden thought someone like Zev was destined to die alone.


    At Seaville Hospital.


    Kelly was back at work, still undergoing training and evaluations before getting started properly.


    "Kelly."


    In her office, as Kelly was organizing her desk, Regina came in.


    Kelly was a little surprised. She had expected Eric to be the first toe looking


    for her, not Regina. "What''s up?" Kelly asked indifferently.


    "I heard you''re back at the hospital, so I came to see you," Regina said, still proud like she was naturally superior to Kelly.


    "Eric and I are getting remarried. We didn''t have a wedding before, but we''re going all out this time. Here''s the invitation." Regina ced the wedding invitation in front of Kelly, teasing. "I wonder if you''ll ever get a wedding. I bet the Lockharts won''t make a big fuss about marrying you, right? After all, the social gap''s too big."


    Kelly looked at Regina as if she was crazy.


    "Eric didn''t want to give you a wedding, but now he''s giving me one. Our wedding venue and everything about it is all high-end custom-made. A woman, if she never even gets a wedding, do you think her man really loves her? He probably cares about losing face more," Regina mocked, gesturing at the invitation. "You have toe, okay?"


    "What''s the matter? Aren''t you afraid it''ll make you look like a joke if I go? You''re destroying someone else''s marriage and then bragging about it? Is this really something to be proud of?" Kelly looked at Regina with a smirk. "No wonder rissa says you are stupid. Are you a product of the Lynches'' genes, or did Beau find you in some trash can?"

    "Kelly!” Regina red at her, fuming, but deep down, she was even more upset with rissa.


    Usually, rissa scolded her for being stupid at home, but now she was out here telling everyone the same thing.
