Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218 The Man Who Loved Kelly Is Already Dead

Cecil looked at Kelly, offering her one last chance at survival.

But Kelly ignored him. She would never let Zev walk to his death.

Cecil wanted Zev’s life …

Finished

“What? Did you really fall for him in those five years? You once said you’d never love anyone but your husband.” Cecil sneered.

“Zev is my husband,” Kelly stated firmly word by word.

“Oh… according to my sources, Zev announced his engagement to someone named Clarissa after news of your death spread. They even have a child together.”

Cecil pulled out his phone and showed Kelly a screenshot of a news article.

It was from a press conference held by the Lockhart Group, where Wade announced Zev as the successor and his official entry into the company.

Clarissa was also present at the event.

Kelly’s body trembled as she stared at the screen, her eyes turned red.

Clearly before she left, she had thought that if she died, she hoped Zev would move on just like Eric had.

But now, seeing the news, jealousy and resentment choked her, making it hard to breathe.

It hurts so much.

“If he’s willing to come and save you, I’ll acknowledge him as a man and let him take you away,” Cecil said in a low hoarse voice.

He handed the phone to Kelly.

Her hands stiff and numb, she slowly entered Zev’s number.

With a burning sensation in her eyes, Kelly slowly closed her eyes.

This was her last chance.

Zev wasn’t a fool. If he learned she was alive, he would surely inform Gary.

She might still have a chance.

With that, Kelly dialed the number.

No one answered.

Unwilling to give up, Kelly dialed again.

This time, Clarissa picked up.

Kelly’s entire body was stiff and numb.

In a panic, she hung up the phone immediately, hugging her knees tightly as her body shook violently.

Cecil leaned against the wall, watching the firelight, and let out a cold laugh.

“Kelly, no one cares about your life…”

Five years ago, Cecil had said the same words to Kelly.

He told Kelly, “No one cares whether you live or die.”

“Actually, I admired that man named Michael. He was brave enough to risk his life to save you back then, I respected him as a real man. I wanted to spare his life, but Lucas’s men acted too quickly…”

Michael had been shot in the head. There was no chance to save him.

Kelly tugged at her hair, unwilling to relive the memories or listen any further.

“Before Michael went to save you, he came to me,” Cecil recalled.

“I, Cecil, don’t admire many people. But Michael, as a doctor, was one of them.” Cecil drew on the ground with a stick. “He begged me, saying we were comrades, and asked me to protect you no matter what. He even wrote down the formula and method for purifying … prohibited substances.”

Michael was highly skilled in pharmacology. He had the ability to do it.

“So Kelly, when he went to save you, he was prepared to die. He felt he had done something unforgivable but because of the purification method, I owed him a favor. That’s why I had to protect you.”

Cecil looked at Kelly.

Before Zev joined Lucas’s camp, it was indeed Cecil who had protected the medical team.

“The one who loved you the most is already dead.”

Cecil seemed intent on tormenting Kelly.

The man who had loved Kelly most selflessly, without any ulterior motives had died at Lucas’s hands.

Even though Lucas was dead, Michael would never return.

Kelly hugged her knees, clutching the blanket tightly and cried hysterically.

“You’ve lost your last chance.”

Cecil stood up and left the hut.

Kelly had lost her final opportunity.

Three days passed in a daze, Daniel’s men came to fetch Kelly and Cecil.
