Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 394

Chapter 394 Ken Has No Life of His Own

Wade let out a weary sigh. He didn’t argue with Zev anymore. Instead, he turned to Kelly with a pleading look in his eyes.

Zev was too close to the matter to see clearly.

He’d grown up with the Wagners. Everyone there had long since decided that Ken was the traitor–the one responsible for Sylvester’s death. With that kind of influence around him, it was no surprise that Zev saw Ken as the enemy.

But Kelly was on the outside looking in.

She met Wade’s gaze, saying nothing.

In truth, her heart had begun to waver.

A man like Wade, so steadfast in his judgment, was not someone who misjudged others lightly–especially not someone he worried about even on his deathbed.

“Could you give us a moment?” Wade said quietly. He didn’t want to talk with Zev anymore. He needed to speak to Kelly alone.

Zev stood up, instinctively reaching to lead Kelly out.

“Kelly… stay.” Wade’s eyes stayed on her.

Zev hesitated, concern flickering across his face, worried Wade would drive Kelly away. “Grandpa.”

“I’m fine. Go on,” Kelly reassured him softly.

Zev glanced between them, then finally gave a nod and left.

Wade let out a frustrated breath, part disappointment, part resignation. He had to admit at this point that the troublemaker only listened to his wife.

When they were finally alone, Kelly sat by the edge of the bed. “You want to talk about Ken, don’t you?”

Wade was momentarily surprised. She really was sharp.

“Ken is one of us. You have to believe in him,” Wade said, repeating it again and again.

“But I heard he gave up the shares you left him. And you didn’t leave him anything else,” Kelly said, watching Wade carefully.

“That kid is so stubborn,” Wade murmured. “I want to give him everything, but I couldn’t. He’s spent his whole life chasing the truth about Sylvester’s death.” The old man sighed.

“You know my family holds a lot of power in Seaville. For someone to kill my son–it couldn’t have been done by one man alone. You understand what that means.” Wade paused, then looked straight at her and only told her these because he trusted her.

“When a catastrophe strikes, no one is innocent,” Wade said, his voice heavy. “There were wolves circling, ready to tear us apart. If we want Zion to live peacefully and not fall into his father’s fate, we have to drag every last one of those wolves into the light.”

Chapter 394 Ken Has No Life of His Own

And Ken had chosen to abandon the safety of daylight and live in the shadows. He never tried to explain himself to anyone. All he cared about was uncovering the truth–every last piece of it.

The goal was to bring out the beasts who had taken part in that long–buried crime.

“What do you want me to do?” Kelly asked, drawing a deep breath.

Wade smiled faintly, nodding.

Kelly was smart. She didn’t need long explanations to understand.

“Whatever happens, trust him,” Wade said, squeezing her hand gently. “Trust only Ken. No one else. Keep Zion in the dark, if it comes to that.”

Kelly stared at him, stunned. “You want me to keep it from Zion? Because you don’t trust the Wagners?”

Wade nodded.

Seeing her grasp the truth so quickly, Wade let out a sigh of relief. Maybe he had been wrong to try and keep Zion and Kelly apart back then.

But now, he was thankful. Thankful that someone like her was by Zev’s side. His grandson was a lucky man.

Kelly’s fingers were going numb. She couldn’t speak for a long moment.

It wasn’t unreasonable for Wade to distrust the Wagners. After all, Shawn had clearly been opposing Zev both openly and behind the scenes. But Shawn was just a kid–he couldn’t have had anything to do with Sylvester’s kidnapping.

So Wade didn’t raise his guard up against Shawn.

Kelly’s chest tightened. She started praying–begging–that the Wagners had nothing to do with what happened back then. Maybe Wade was just being overly cautious.

Because if the Wagners were involved, it would destroy Zev.

They were his family. After losing his parents, they were all he had left.

The Wagners weren’t just relatives–they were the foundation that kept him standing through everything.

“If one day I’m gone and all this is over,” Wade said, his voice hoarse and barely audible. “I want you to give Ken 15% of the company shares. And the trust fund, the rest of the estate.” He reached for a few contracts from the table beside him.

They were everything he had set aside for Ken.

But for now, he couldn’t give them to Ken directly. So he gave them to Kelly.

“You want me to sign for you and hold on to them,” she asked, “and pass them to Ken once it’s all over?”

Wade nodded.

Kelly took a deep breath and asked, “You trust me with this?”

He didn’t think she’d just take/everything and run?

“I trust you,” Wade said without hesitation. He chose to trust her.
