Chapter 854 Love Rival


    After Quentin and Ken left, the room finally became quiet.


    Kelly saw them out, and when she returned, she found Zev picking at the bandage on his hand.


    It must be too hot.


    Kelly chuckled and walked over to his bed, helping him remove the bandage. "I don''t think anyone else ising today, so let''s get this off and cool down"


    Zev nced at her, looking a bit embarrassed. "Honey, you''re really not upset with me?"


    "I''m not," Kelly said, sitting next to Zev. "But please don''t do that again, I was scared."


    She really was scared.


    Every time Zev did something dangerous, her heart pounded.


    "It won''t happen again," Zev whispered, pulling Kelly into his arms. "This is the


    He really didn''t need to hurt himself anymore to grow.


    With the support of the Sommers and people in their circle, he had firmly established himself in the Seaville business district. From here on, all he needed to do was move forward steadily. With the strong backing of Lockhart Group, he wouldn''t fall behind.


    Kelly nodded, understanding why Zev had worked so hard in the beginning- because he needed to be stronger quickly.


    "Honey, I want to kiss you," Zev said, unusually polite, probably feeling guilty. He lowered his head, ready to kiss Kelly.


    After surviving the ordeal, the one person Zevmost wanted to cherish was always Kelly.


    He used to fear nothing, but now, he started fearing death.


    Click ...


    Thinking no one else woulde today, Kelly didn''t push Zev away, but the door suddenly opened.


    Vincent and Thea stood in the doorway, one holding flowers, the other carrying a fruit basket, looking a bit awkward at the sight of the two of them.


    Kelly quickly pushed Zev away, cleared her throat, and stepped back.


    Zev felt a bit irritated. The Brooks/siblings had spoiled his good time.


    Are the assistants and bodyguards standing outside just for show? Can''t they have knocked first?


    and ran off


    Seeing Zev and Kelly being affectionate, Thea''s eyes instantly welled up. She was angry and jealous, turning to walk away. After a few steps, she came back, shoved the flowers into Zev''s a crying.

    After running a few steps, Thea stopped, turned around, and red at Kelly ''I won''t lose to you, she snapped, then ran off again.


    Kelly sighed. It was obvious she was just a spoiled rich girl.


    "Mr. Zion, you''ve be a local celebrity after rescuing people from that fire, Vincent said sarcastically. sneering "So lucky."


    "Thank you for thepliment, Mr. Brooks," Zev replied smugly. "I''ll take the flowers and fruit basket, but if there''s nothing else, my wife and I have important matters to attend to."


    It was clear that Zev was signaling for him to leave.


    Now that the Sommers were firmly on his side, Zev had the confidence to take this stance.


    The Brooks could no longer threaten him with the threat of cutting ties or withdrawing investments.


    After all, the Sommers'' power was just as formidable as the Brooks!


    Vincent nced at Kelly before speaking in a low tone, "Kelly,e outside. Let''s talk.


    "No way!" Zev''s rms went off. "What''s so important that it can''t be discussed in front of me? She''s my wife."


    "Who knows if she''ll still be your wife after this." Vincent continued his sarcastic tone. "Money corrupts men. In a ce like Nightfall, with so many beautiful women, it''s hard to resist temptation, right?"


    Vincent deliberately mentioned the women serving drinks at Nightfall.


    Zev''s face turned red with anger. "Honey, I''m clean and innocent."


    Kelly frowned. "Shut up."


    Then, she turned to Vincent. "Mr. Brooks, let''s talk outside."


    Kelly could tell that Vincent wanted to speak with her privately.


    Zev clenched his jaw in frustration. Is Vincent thinking about making a move on my wife?


    Everyone seemed like a love rival to him.


    In the security passage.


    Kelly turned to Vincent. "Mr. Brooks/ what is it that you want to talk to me about?"


    "The wealthy attendees at Zev''s party are all from very influential families, yet someone still dared tomit arson. To set a fire at Nightfall and nearly kill you all means they''re no ordinary person, and their connections and resources must be strong." Vincent frowned, paused, and then continued, "Zev is a man with power. He is bound to make enemies. Being in his position, he''s upset too many people and earned too much jealousy."


    Kelly studied Vincent, acknowledging that his point made sense, but still unsure of what he was really trying to say.

    After stumbling around for a while, he still hadn''t made a clear point. "Mr. Brooks,


    if you have something to say, just say it directly."


    Vincent snorted. "I''m worried that staying with him will put your life in danger. Those people are crazy, and you could be their next target!"


    Kelly smiled. "I have a driver for mymute."


    “That''s not enough!" Vincent was growing more agitated.


    During this time, Vincent and Kelly had been meeting frequently because he had


    to secretly go to the hospital for treatment, seeking Kelly''s help.


    Each time, he was dressed like a celebrity going out, which Kelly found both amusing and frustrating. "Mr. Brooks, have you been taking your medicine on schedule?" Kelly asked, trying to change the subject. When they were on their way back to Seaville, Kelly knew that once she and Zev entered this circle, safety was no longer a guarantee.


    So, she would never leave Zev out of fear. Absolutely not.


    "You still have the time to worry about me ... " Vincent snorted, secretly thinking


    that Kelly cared about him. "If I were you, I''d divorce Zev, cut ties with him, and


    take the kids far away."
