Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319 Zev Stands by Kelly

Clarissa’s expression instantly darkened, furious at Kelly’s words. “You’re spouting nonsense!”

She glanced nervously around the conference room. “Don’t listen to her nonsense!”

Kelly scoffed, then strode over to Zev’s seat. With a commanding presence, she pulled Clarissa’s chair toward her and sat down. “Clarissa, as the manager of the project department, you’re responsible for its poor performance. Mr. Zion has been kind enough not to hold you accountable, yet you still insist on stirring up trouble.”

“Kelly, who do you think you are? What right do you have to speak here?” Clarissa slammed the table, her voice seething with anger.

Kelly chuckled. “I’m the CEO’s wife. You’ve been using that status to act high and mighty for years. Now that I’m using it openly, why are you panicking?”

She raised an eyebrow at Clarissa. “I heard you paid a visit to Thea in the hospital, trying to escalate tensions and cut off the Brooks‘ investment, deliberately pushing Lockhart Group into crisis.”

Clarissa’s allies, clearly unsettled, quickly spoke up. “Mr. Zion, your wife has no official position in the company. You should ask her to step aside.”

The room grew tense as everyone exchanged looks. Ken’s people, in particular, seemed displeased.

Zev cleared his throat, resisting the urge to applaud Kelly.

With a faint smile, he said, “I own 25% of Lockhart Group’s shares under my father’s name. When I got married, I gave them to my wife as a wedding gift. That makes her a major shareholder. And in our household, my wife has the final say–her authority even outweighs mine.”

As his words settled over the room, shock rippled through the crowd.

He had actually handed over all of Sylvester’s shares to Kelly!

This move made it clear just how much Zev valued her.

Kelly recalled the moment he transferred the shares. Her heart tightened slightly before she let out a helpless smile.

It must have been back when he pretended to be poor, tricking her into signing a prenuptial agreement where he promised her all his assets.

So he had truly meant it.

Clarissa, on the other hand, was livid. “Zev! Those shares belonged to your father, and you gave all of them to Kelly? What about Shane?”

Panic flashed across her face. She had been counting on Shane inheriting Zev’s fortune. After all, besides the shares in Wade’s possession, there was also Sylvester’s portion.

Zev sneered. “Clarissa, you’re not even trying to hide your greed anymore. It’s none of your concern who I choose to give my shares to.”

Clarissa’s fists clenched as she glared at Kelly with pure resentment.

Why was it so easy for Kelly to obtain everything she had worked so hard for?

“You’re an idiot, Zev,” Clarissa muttered bitterly.

Ken spoke solemnly, “Clarissa, why don’t you explain why you tried to evince Thea to withdraw the Brooks‘ investment at the hospital?”

Clarisa looked angrily at Kelly. “That’s a lie! Do you have any proof?”

Kelly shifted her gaze toward Vincent, who had been quietly observing from the sidelines. “Mr. Brooks?”

He inhaled deeply, staring up at the ceiling as if searching for a way out.

He had truly made a mess of things. For over 30 years, he had prided himself on his cunning–only to fall straight into a woman’s trap.

Seeing his reluctance, Kelly leaned in slightly. “Mr. Brooks, did Clarissa ever meet with you alone?”

Vincent still hesitated to speak. He wasn’t eager to cross the Lynches–everyone knew they weren’t people to provoke. It was always safer to upset honorable men than to make enemies of the ruthless.

“Mr. Brooks, are you feeling unwell? You look pale. Are you sick?” Kelly’s voice was soft, yet her words carried weight.

Vincent nearly lost his temper, glaring at her. “Yes! She came to me alone and claimed you were arrogant and abusive, using favoritism to push my sister toward suicide! She told me not to let this go and insisted that you and Zev needed to understand just how serious this was!”

Kelly’s eyes narrowed as she turned to Clarissa.

Clarissa’s chest tightened with fury as she shot Vincent a glare. “Mr. Brooks, I was only looking out for your sister. I never told you to pull your investment from Lockhart Group.”
