Chapter 39 Zev Forces Eric to Divorce
Kelly returned to the rental apartment and immediately locked herself in the bathroom.
She tried to lock the door, but the bathroom lock was broken.

The one–bedroom apartment had a separate bathroom, which was located outside the bedroom. Kelly wanted to take a shower but was worried Zev might barge in shamelessly.
Kelly hesitated, biting her lip for a moment before peeking out from the bathroom. She glanced around, relieved to see Zev busy in the kitchen, fiddling with something. She breathed a sigh of relief, wedging the mop against the door, and carefully began undressing to take a shower.
“Kelly, I’ve already called my colleagues at the police station. Eric’s situation clearly falls under bigarny. In most cases, the second marriage would be considered invalid. The police left the decision up to him, but the decision is yours. If you-
Zey came out of the kitchen and noticed the small living room was empty,
He glanced around, then nonchalantly walked toward the bathroom.
Click.
The door to the bathroom opened easily, and the mop wedged against it barely did anything.
Kelly, startled, instinctively hugged herself and screamed in panic. “Ah!”
She was finally able to make a sound.

Kelly wrapped her arms around herself and threw whatever she could at Zev.
Zev froze for a moment, caught off guard, and was hit by the bottle of body wash Kelly tossed at him. He slowly turned around like a wooden state.
“Cough…“With his back to Kelly, Zev awkwardly spoke. “No need to get so worked up….
He was worked up and added, “I didn’t see anything…”
Zev, trying to keep his composure, teased, though his Adam’s apple moved nervously and his palms were slightly sweaty. “In Solmaris, when did I not watch over you while you showered?”
Kelly, furious, wrapped herself tightly in the towel, her breath rapid. She opened her mouth to yell at Zev but couldn’t make any sound.
Zev’s heart pounded. He lowered his head, trying to hide the flush creeping up his ears and cheeks.
She just spoke …. It seems the psychologist is right. Stress desensitization could be effective, but it has its risks and could make things teore
He needed to push Kelly a little, but not too much.
“I said, the police called, saying that Eric’s situation is indeed bigamy, but it’s a special case, Zev spoke, still with his back to Kelly. The police gave Eric a deadline–he has one week to choose: you or Regina. He paused before adding, “Of course…. you also have the right to decide”
Zev genuinely cared about Kelly’s decision, more than he let on.
He had to admit his involvement with the police and the bigamy case wasn’t just about justice. He wanted to use this situation to force Eric to choose between Kelly and Regina.
He even hoped Eric would just leave already, go back to his wife and kids, and settle down.
That way, nothing would stand in the way of him and Kelly anymore.
For the past five years, Kelly’s love for Eric had sparked intense jealousy in Zev
YOM
Kelly looked down, her wet hair still dripping
But the things that belonged to her, she would make sure they came back to her.
That Eric was a sc*mbag, a typical selfish j*rk. What did Kelly even see in him?
Zev was getting frustrated, not sure how to wake Kelly up. “Kelly, you should’ve known from the moment he married Regina that he wasn’t the one for you! How long are you going to keep fooling yourself? Do you really have to degrade yourself like
She bit her lip hard, glaring at Zev in anger.
