Revenge with My Undercover Cop Hubby

Chapter 125 Leave It To Him

• Pearls

Zev had endured seven days of brutal torture, his body wracked with pain, but his mind remained steadfast The physical torment didn’t faze him; his resolve was stronger than any agony they could inflict.

But those captors–they had found his weakness. They knew how to shatter his will

They taunted him with lies: Kelly had been taken. Eric had sent her away to a mental institution. They even claimed they’d cut away part of her brain, that she would never be the same again.

That was when he broke. Rage flooded through him. He fought, he struggled, desperate to escape. But the thought of Kelly–helpless, broken–pushed him to the edge. He had lost all control.

For the first time, true fear gripped him.

He wasn’t afraid for himself.

He feared for her. The thought that something terrible could happen to Kelly consumed him.

Kelly’s voice brought him back to the present. “This isn’t his fault,” she said, her tone tight with frustration. “If you hadn’t changed the plan, Lucas would be in custody by now, and we’d know where he’s hiding. Zev, she continued, her voice softer but still edged with frustration. “You’re a special forces soldier. You’ve been trained for this. I thought you wouldn’t make such a mistake.”

Her words hurt, but they were said out of concern. Kelly’s worry for him was clear, and that only made it

worse.

The pain of those seven days–it was all avoidable.

Zev didn’t respond. He kept his head down, the silence stretching between them, thick and heavy.

Kelly didn’t push him further. She just kept moving forward, gently guiding the wheelchair. But the tension lingered, thick in the air around them.

“Don’t tell Gary,” Zev said quietly, his voice low, almost pleading. “Not yet. I just … I need a little more time. I want to be with you.”

He knew Gary would be furious if he found out Zev hadn’t lost his memory. He’d be forced back into action, with no time for anything else.

But for now, Zev only wanted peace with Kelly. Just a little more time, away from everything.

Kelly didn’t respond immediately. She simply nodded. “I won’t tell him. Not until your legs are fully healed.”

They reached the entrance of the complex, but as they passed, Zev felt eyes on them. Someone was following them, trying to sneak in. The guard caught sight of the stranger and stopped him in his tracks.

“Do you have identification?” the guard asked.

“No,” the stranger replied, starting to walk away.

Before he could leave, the guard was faster, grabbing the person and pressing them against the wall. He pulled out his phone. “Mr. Wagner, we’ve got a tail.”

the market …”

Kelly didn’t answer. She kept moving around, focused on the task at hand.

Zev sank back into the couch with a deep sigh.

It hit him again–the realization that it was always him who made the mistake.

She had only used him to rile Eric up. This wasn’t the first time.

“Kelly, someone’s after me…” Zev’s voice was low, a heaviness hanging in the air with his words.

Kelly came into the room, holding a dish of braised fish. She saw Eric, leaning against the window with his arms crossed, his silence filling the space between them.

Zev had known. Back at the market, he had felt the eyes on him, the cold, calculating gaze of someone who was watching closely.

“The people Lucas has won’t let me go easily. And they won’t forget what I’ve taken from him,” Zev murmured. “I have something of his, something only I can use to bring him out into the open.”

The danger was real, and Zev knew it was far from over.

The threat could come at any moment, and all he could do was‘ wait and wonder if he would survive the next time.

“Dinner’s ready,” Kelly said, placing a set of cutlery beside him.

Zev struggled over on his crutches, forcing a smile despite everything.

“Honey, it smells amazing.”

Kelly didn’t respond, her focus on serving his food.

Zev noticed the shift in the mood. The silence between them felt heavy. He stopped smiling, his attention now on the food, but his mind was elsewhere.

Eric had ruined it. He couldn’t suppress the anger that flared up inside him.

“Eric … He’s not worthy of you,” Zev said, voice tight. “He doesn’t deserve you. You shouldn’t be this upset. It’s better you’re apart.”

He didn’t bring up the mental hospital–he couldn’t. Talking about that would only make it worse for Kelly, and he didn’t want to dig into the pain of it all.

“Zev.” Kelly’s voice cut through the silence. She lifted her eyes to meet his. “What is it that you like about me?”

Zev was caught off guard, a little stunned by the question. He hadn’t been prepared for it.

What was it about Kelly? He wasn’t sure how to answer. Was it love? Or something else, something beyond

words?

Back in school. Zev had never cared for the complicated emotions poets wrote about. They seemed

“I don’t know…” he said quietly, feeling the truth of it in his chest.
