Clarissa’s satisfied expression lingered as she watched Wade’s reaction.

Wade slammed his cane, his anger barely contained. “That vicious woman!”

“There’s more,” Ken added, his voice simmering with outrage. “I found out that Kelly is still in contact with her ex–husband, Eric, while she’s with Mr. Zion. She’s been using Eric’s daughter as an excuse to keep close to him. Isn’t it obvious? She’s trying to have it both ways and make a fool of Mr. Zion.” He pulled out some photos he’d taken at the emergency room and showed them to Wade.

Wade’s face grew even darker. “This is unacceptable!”

There was no way he would let such a deceitful woman become part of the Lockharts.

At a cafe.

Gary sat in his car, watching Kelly as she emerged from the cafe..

“Sorry for making you change locations so many times,” he apologized as she got into the car. “We needed to be discreet.”

Kelly shook her head and handed him a cup of coffee. “Today, both Ken and Clarissa came to see me. They told me that Zev… is actually Wade Lockhart’s grandson, the heir to Lockhart Group.”

Her fingers trembled, her knuckles pale. It was clear she was struggling with the weight of the revelation.

“Is it true?” she asked, her voice rough.

Gary’s silence was brief. “Yes.”

A bitter laugh escaped Kelly’s lips. She felt like she had been made into a joke once again.

“I agreed to marry Zev because I felt guilty,” she admitted softly. “After he was captured by Lucas, I wanted him to have something, even if it was just my inheritance, to live comfortably in Seaville after I was gone…

She shook her head.

She’d been deceived by both Eric and Zion during their respective relationships.

“And yet … my little inheritance is nothing compared to what he already has,” she said bitterly, almost laughing at herself.

“He didn’t mean to deceive you,” Gary said gently. “The Lockharts‘ situation is complicated, and Zev never wanted to acknowledge that family.”

Kelly looked up sharply.

Zev refused to acknowledge the Lockharts…

“He probably told you that both his parents passed away.”

Gary’s voice was low and hoarse, “I’m his uncle–his mother was my sister. The Lockhart patriarch, Wade, is a controlling and selfish man. You’ve probably seen it for yourself. He believes that marriages should be arranged by parents, as they were in the past. He expected Zevs father, Sylvester, to marry the woman he chose and take over the family business. But Sylvester was rebellious. He fell in love with my sister, who valued freedom and independence above all else.”

Gary’s voice softened with the memory. “Even though my family wasn’t wealthy or influential as the Lockharts, my sister was more than worthy of Sylvester. But Wade was stubborn. He disapproved of my sister because of some rumors about her past. Sylvester didn’t care. He married my sister anyway, left the Lockharts, and started his own business. That’s when they had Zev.”

Gary’s expression darkened. “Later, Sylvester was kidnapped–the victim in that infamous hostage case in Abbysia. You might remember hearing about it.”

Kelly’s eyes widened in shock. That case had been the talk of Seaville when she was young.

She’d heard her parents talk about it–how Sylvester had been a talented and brilliant man.

“And after Sylvester’s death, Wade refused to reflect on his actions,” Gary continued.

“Instead, he blamed my sister, saying she had dragged his son into danger. He believed that if Sylvester had stayed under his control, none of it would have happened. My sister couldn’t bear the weight of Wade’s accusations. Combined with the grief of losing Sylvester, she … took her own life.”

Kelly clenched her hands into fists.
