Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 Kelly Is Expecting

At a village in Oasisvale, Kelly woke up. She found herself in a poorly lit mud hut.

She raised her hand and rubbed her head, wincing as she touched the wound on her forehead.

She had been taken away and had seen Lucas. Gary’s men had acted immediately. Lucas tried to escape, but she managed to incapacitate him with a needle hidden in her sleeve.

She had wanted the peacekeeping force to capture Lucas alive, so his crimes could be made public in a military court.

But just before Gary’s men rushed in, Lucas’s right–hand man, Cecil Bowen, who was also from Seaville, shot Lucas and knocked her unconscious before taking her away,

Within Lucas’s organization, besides Lucas, Zev and Cecil were his right–hand men whom he trusted the

most.

Cecil was an orphan raised by his grandmother in Hillbrook Village. He loved fighting since he was young and got enlisted in the army after high school. After a few years of military service, he returned and found out that his grandmother had been killed by the village bully.

Cecil avenged his grandmother, killing the bully’s son and fleed. He was on the run for about seven years.

Cecil had joined Lucas during his early years. He was the one who introduced Zev to Lucas.

Zev, as an undercover agent, had first targeted Cecil. He had gained Cecil’s trust for him to introduce himself to Lucas and then went undercover by Lucas’s side for five years.

Those five years were also the five years when Kelly’s medical team had been held hostage.

“You’re awake?”

Kelly tried to escape, but before she could get up, Cecil walked in.

The already dimly lit room became even darker.

Kelly looked at Cecil nervously. Her hands clenched in vigilance.

“You’re quite bold…” Cecil sneered as he placed some flatbread and pickles to the side. “Eat something. Zev used you as a bait. He’s quite the man.”

Unlike Zev, Cecil was a pure northern man.

He was tall, about 6’2“, muscular, and scarred. He was a true survivor from the crossfire.

He had a scar on his brow bone. Coupled with the buzz cut, he looked extremely fierce.

During the five years when Kelly was held hostage by Lucas’s men, she was afraid of Cecil. But Zev had protected her well. The most Kelly had seen Cecil was when she was stitching and bandaging his wounds. They barely interacted.

Cecil was a man of few words, and his personality was the opposite of Zev’s.

Chapter 214 Kelly Is Expecting

Finished

Kelly didn’t understand why Cecil wanted to keep her hostage. Was it just to lure Zev out?

“Lucas died because he deserved it.” Cecil’s eyes were sharp and filled with intense hostility.

He removed his glove and flexed his little finger, which was now fitted with a mechanical prosthetic. “I lost this finger because of Zev. He owes me.”

Zev was someone he trusted, so he introduced him to Lucas. But he turned out to be a traitor, so Cecil, who was the introducer, had to be punished by Lucas.

“Do you hate Zev? I thought someone like you would have a clear perspective. A single misjudgment shouldn’t lead to such self–imposed trouble,” Kelly tried to persuade Cecil. “Besides… as far as I know, he saved your life when you were with Lucas. You two have been through life and death together.”

Cecil sneered and looked up at Kelly. “You want me to let you go?”

Kelly took a deep breath and nodded. “This is best for you.”

Cecil laughed. “That’s practically impossible. I’m already targeted by the military. If they catch me, I’ll be sentenced to death. I killed Lucas. I’m dead if his men find me too.”

“Then why are you holding me here? Why not let me go and escape yourself?” Kelly asked anxiously.

“With you in my hands, I have an extra bargaining chip.” Cecil pointed to the plate. “You’d better eat something and put aside any thoughts of escaping. If you behave, I’ll let you go once I’m completely safe.”

“I won’t eat,” said Kelly angrily. She was waiting for an opportunity to escape.

After a long pause, Cecil looked at Kelly and finally spoke, “Did you know that you were expecting before you came here?”

Kelly froze. He stared at Cecil in shock.

What?

Expecting?

I am pregnant?

Her heart raced. She instinctively clutched her chest. How could I be … expecting?

She had made sure to take necessary precautions.

“If you want this child, then behave and eat your food,” said Cecil before he left the hut.
