Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 73

Chapter 73 Leaves the Army for Kelly

Zev stood

quietly, watching Kelly as she made her decision.

He already knew in his heart that Kelly would never choose him in a situation like this.

If she could abandon him over something important, how could he expect her to care about the small ones?

“Go home,” Kelly wrote on the whiteboard, just as Zev had expected.

Zev furrowed his brow, the hurt clear in his eyes.

Kelly looked at him, feeling an unexpected tightness in her chest.

It was rare to see this kind of emotion from Zev–this was only the third time.

The first time had been in Solmaris, when he took a bullet meant for her. His eyes were filled with complexity as he lay in a pool of his own blood.

The second time was when she called the police to have him arrested.

And now, this time, it was her asking him to leave.

But it was such a small matter.

“Please leave. I need to talk with my wife,” Eric interjected, claiming his territory.

Zev let out a bitter laugh, removing his apron and tossing it aside before turning to leave.

He was angry, jealous, and on the verge of losing control, but he also knew he had no right to feel that way.

His primary fault was meeting Kelly too late.

Back in Solmaris, Zev had asked Kelly if she would have fallen for him if they had met before Eric.

Kelly had firmly said no.

To be honest, it stung.

Kelly had always made it clear that she would never love him.

And yet, Zev had always been relentless.

“Melody, you should go too. Kelly and I need to talk,” Eric turned to Melody.

Melody burrowed, then looked at Dawn. “You want to talk? Let your mom leave. It’s on my way, so I’ll drop her off.”

Dawn wanted to protest, but Melody had already pushed her out. “Come on, let me take you.”

“Hey? Eric, I … ” Dawn still tried to say something, but Melody had already slammed the door shut.

Dawn’s face turned grim. “She wouldn’t dare!”

“Kelly has combat–induced trauma, to put it bluntly, mental trauma. She’s mentally ill,” Melody whispered in Dawn’s ear. “Don’t think it’s just you–if she killed Eric, she wouldn’t even go to prison.”

Dawn’s face turned ghostly pale, and she stared at Melody in fear, wondering if it was a sign that her son should not be with this woman after all.

At Zev’s apartment, he leaned against the door, feeling restless.

Despite the hallway separating them, he couldn’t shake off his worry about Kelly.

Several times, he opened the door, only to curse himself and close it again.

He really was pathetic.

Lighting a cigarette, Zev sat down on a stool by the door.

“Knock, knock, knock.” Someone was knocking on the door.

It was Caden. “Open up, it’s me.”

Zev reluctantly opened the door and asked, “What do you want?”

“I’m here to help you with your tattoo,” Caden said, holding a kit and stepping into the living room.

It was Caden who did Zev’s tattoo when he went undercover.

Soldiers weren’t supposed to have tattoos, but Zev had sacrificed so much for the mission.

From the moment he accepted the assignment and chose to obey orders, he knew that his time in the army would end with it.

“Are you planning to be a terrorist for the rest of your life?” Caden donned gloves, rubbing his hands with alcohol. “Sit down.”

Zev looked at the tattoos on his arm and shrugged off his shirt.

He had the perfect physique–muscular and sculpted with no excess fat. The only imperfection was a scar on his upper right chest where a bullet had struck him, which looked hideous.

His tattoo started on his right upper arm and spread across his back.

It was designed to make Lucas believe he wasn’t military.

“Honestly, this tattoo, only you could pull it off. It’s a bit of a waste to get rid of it,” Caden said, admiring Zev’s arm and back. A physique like that–forget women, even a man couldn’t help but envy it.

“Keep your drool to yourself. You aren’t my type,” Zev lazily teased, leaning back on the couch.

Caden rolled his eyes. “Sorry, but I don’t like your type of your partner could die on your bed style. No wonder young girls get scared when they see you. A man like you could have killed both men and women

with your charm”
