Chapter 66 Beau Is the Devil
In the hospital room.
Kelly was now able to sit up comfortably, and her body had recovered quite well.
It had been three days, and Kelly still hadn’t received any news about Zev,
She chuched her phone, refusing to let go of it even while sleeping, fearing she might miss a message from him.
But still, there was no news from Zev.
His silence could only mean one thing–he was unable to get away.
From what Kelly knew about Zev, if he had managed to get away, he would have been talking non–stop.
But for the last three days, he was eerily quiet.
Kelly suspected that it had to do with him needing to keep his identity hidden, especially in front of the Lynches
Eric was a Lynch now, and he couldn’t be trusted.
Finished
Zev had been taken by the police for questioning, and even if there were higher–ups trying to intervene, they would need. solid reasons to avoid pressing charges and releasing him. If the Lynches suspected anything, the news would likely make its way to Lucas
Zev?” Kelly asked anxiously as Oscar and Melody entered the room.
“There’s not enough evidence. They’ve been investigating it for days. He won’t be able to get out for now, but he’s also not at risk of being locked up,” Oscar explained.
Melody glanced around and quickly closed the door. Is he the same man from Solmaris? He’s terrifying
Kelly wanted to defend Zev, but the less people knew about his identity, the better.
Lucas had fled; therefore. Zev’s mission wasn’t over. They still needed to catch Lucas.
“Kelly, why are you still involved with him? Did he threaten you? Just get him arrested already, Melody said in a hushed tone, clearly frightened.
Oscar sighed, unable to explain, for this was their secret.
When Melody married Oscar, Zev had already been sent off for military training: therefore, she had never met him:
He had gone into training way too early, which made him the perfect candidate to be an undercover spy
His clean slate and lack of connections made him ideal.
Moreover, no one would have thought that the heir to the Lockhart fortune, the richest family in Seaville, would risk his life as an undercover spy.
“He didn’t. Zev’s protecting me. If it weren’t for him, I would already be dead, Kelly signed, using sign language.
Melody sighed. She felt that Kelly and Zev were bound by fate, but no matter what, a terrorist like Zev didn’t deserve Kelly
There was no future for them, no happy ending.
