Zev gave Ken a cold stare. “If my dad were here, you would be afraid.”

Ken paused, then smiled and stood up. “You handled yourself well this time–better than I expected. You kept your power in check and struck back at the right moment. But don’t rush for too much too soon.”

He turned to Kelly. “Kelly is more composed than you. You should listen to her when you’re facing challenges.”

Kelly met his gaze but said nothing.

“Clarissa has been in the Lockhart Group for over two years, gaining influence in many departments. Winning over Maggie was a smart move. You need to fix this fast and eliminate any risks.”

Ken gave one last piece of advice, though it seemed he had more to say. But knowing Zev didn’t want to hear it, he walked out.

Kelly stared after him, confused. What truly happened back then? How did Ken survive and choose not to defend himself when everyone misunderstood him?

Why did only Wade trust him, keeping him around and even offering him shares?

If Ken was truly a threat, why would Wade invite trouble to the Lockharts?

Wade’s approach was different from Zev’s, but he wasn’t naive.

In the past, when rumors spread about Ken colluding with kidnappers to betray Sylvester, did Wade never question him? Even Gary thought Ken had some issues.

“Honey…” Zev sighed deeply. Once they were alone in the office, his expression softened, and he leaned into Kelly with a slight vulnerability.

“Move, you’re heavy.” Kelly felt uncomfortable with his weight pressing against her and gently tried to push him away.

“No…” Zev stayed close, holding onto her tightly, not wanting her to escape.

“What happened to the tough CEO earlier?” Kelly laughed, linking their fingers together. “Let’s go home. Jasper and Shane are waiting. It’s Shane’s birthday today.”

Zev nodded, still leaning against her. “How did you manage to convince Vincent?”

He was curious about her methods.

Kelly raised an eyebrow. “That’s a secret.”

Zev’s curiosity grew. “Do we have secrets now? I feel a little distant.”

She smiled and pulled away. “I truly can’t tell you.”

As a doctor, it was her duty to protect her patient’s privacy.

“You’re treating me like a stranger. Do you have other pets?” Zev frowned, trying to kiss her.

She quickly backed away. Her husband always acted like a child who never grew up.

Chapter 321 Shawn Te Inscrutable

Kelly had just taken a few steps when she bumped into someone.

“Are you okay?” The person smelled faintly elegant, and the scent was familiar.

She looked up and found it was Shawn.

She was momentarily shocked. Shawn had already taken over the Wagne Group–why was he here at Lockhart Group?

– Zev walked over. Upon seeing Shawn, his demeanor immediately shifted, and he asked unhappily, “Mr.

Wagner, what brings you to the Lockhart Group?”

Why so formal? After we met at the banquet, I had some things to handle in Hallowick. I only got back a few days ago after taking over the Wagner Group, and I’ve been busy. Now that I’ve finally got a break, my dad asked me to invite you and Kel out for dinner” Shawn smiled.

He was trying to get closer to Zev, acting friendly like he was doing Zev a favor.

But there was much more behind his actions, and his real intentions were hard to figure out.

“Call her Kelly.” Zev gritted his teeth, his voice low with warning.

He could sense what Shawn wanted from Kelly. It was like he had a radar for anyone eyeing his wife. “Kelly, would you join me for dinner?” Shawn’s smile deepened, his gaze intense and possessive. Kelly wouldn’t believe she could attract Shawn. Every move he made seemed calculated.
