Chapter 314 Kelly Is Zev''s Bottom Line
+B Pearls
"What''s next?" Zev asked casually. "You''re smart. It''s only a matter of time before you make a choice. Pick whoever you want, as long as you''re sure it''s the right decision and won''t regret itter. Your choice has nothing to do with me."
He couldn''t dictate others'' decisions, but his future was in his hands. And he intended to take full control of it.
Vincent hadn''t expected Zev to be so blunt-he could have handled things more diplomatically,
"With that attitude, you can''t even manage a simple situation, yet you still dream of sess? The Lockharts have built their legacy for three generations, and you''re about to destroy it!" Vincent snapped in frustration.
"Vincent, don''t be so harsh on Zion," Thea interjected, holding onto Vincent''s arm. "As long as he gets Kelly to apologize to me, I''ll let it go. She should also post an apology on Twitter."
She turned to Zev as if giving him a generous offer.
"Zion, bring Kelly here to apologize," Wade said in a stern tone.
Everyone believed that if Zev kept acting this way, he would drag the entire Lockharts down with him.
"Grandpa, just forget it. If I truly ruin the Lockharts, then that''s our fate. If you want to scold me for it, wait until I''m dead and do it alongside our ancestors. For now, focus on your health instead of stressing over this."
With his hands in his pockets, Zev walked away. After a few steps, he turned back, his gaze cold and resolute as he locked eyes with Thea and Vincent.
"Even if the Lockharts copse under me, I could easily take the Brooks down with me before I go. I don''t like making trouble, but Kelly is my bottom line. If you have a problem with me, fine. But if you target my wife, I won''t promise I''ll stay rational."
Vincent was furious, pointing at the door but unable to say anything. Zev''s presence was too intimidating.
Zev left leisurely while Wade nearly lost his bnce from anger.
Vincent clenched his jaw. "Mr. Wade, did you hear that?"
Wade, supported by his assistant, looked deeply troubled. "Isn''t Kelly at this hospital? Bring her here. She needs to apologize to Thea and delete that Twitter post immediately!"
Thea, shaken by Zev''s words, burst into tears, hugging her knees. In a fit of hysteria, she yanked out her IV and looked like she might throw herself off the building.
Vincent''s heart ached as he held her back, ring at Wade. "If anything happens to my sister, don''t expect me to stay silent!"
Wade rubbed his temples, turning to his assistant. "What are you waiting for? Go get Kelly!"
In the office, Kelly had just finished an exam and was organizing nanerwork or

I''mny" Kelly replied tly, checking the time before turning away.
"Ms Kelly, Mr. Zion just took over thepany, and Lockhart Group is in a difficult position. If the Brooks don''t support him, things will only get worse, the assistant pressed.
Kelly turned back, her expression unreadable. "So, if the Brooks don''t back Zion, will the Lockhart Group go bankrupt?"
The assistant hesitated. “Not exactly. But with Shawn returning to Seaville, most business deals are shifting to Wagner Group. If this keeps up.....
Zey''s position would be even more precarious.
"Please, just help Mr. Zion, the assistant pleaded in a low voice.
Kelly inhaled deeply, then nodded. "Which ward?"
"General Surgery VIP Ward 2," he answered quickly.
She nced at the clock. "Tell them to wait, I have work to finish first. I''ll go when I''m done.
Apologizing was out of the question.
She was just curious what kind of spoiled princess was Thea?

The assistant grew nervous upon hearing that they had to wait.
However, Kelly simply stepped into her office and shut the door, leaving him with no choice but to leave.
Then''s ward
The assistant returned with the same message Kelly was busy with patients, and they''d have to wait. Vincent''s expression darkened. "We''re still waiting on her?"
By midday, Thea and Vincent finally caught sight of Kelly, Wade had already left due to health concerns, leaving only the assistant behind to ensure Kelly apologized.
Wearing a white coat, Kelly strolled into the ward with her hands in her pockets. She said nothing as she approached the bed, casually lifting Thea''s wrist for a closer look.

"Slitting your wrists is one of the most painful ways to go. It doesn''t bring instant death-shallow cuts are useless, and deep ones are hard to survive."
Vincent eyed her suspiciously, taking a moment before asking, "You''re Kelly?" Kelly nced up. "Oh? Didn''t even notice you standing there."
He frowned as he studied her. She was indeed attractive, but she came from an unremarkable background.
"Delete the Twitter post and apologize to my sister," Vincent ordered coldly. "If you''re smart, you should divorce Zion now. You don''t belong in the Lockharts."
His tone carried a warning. "Refuse, and Zion will end up isted and bankrupt."
Kelly scrutinized him, her eyes pausing at his neck like a doctor assessing a patient. "You might have an infectious disease. I''d suggest booking an appointment with me tomorrow so I can check it out."
Vincent''s face twisted in anger, his breath unsteady with fury.
