Zev had been taken into an interrogation room, while a female officer crouched beside Faye, speaking to her in a soothing tone.

Perched on a worn-out bench, Faye hesitantly described what had allegedly happened to her, her small voice breaking at times.

Kelly, who had been with Zev the entire time, immediately intervened. "Zev was never alone with her."

A lawyer-one Kelly instantly recognized as being affiliated with Clarissa-gave her

a pointed look. "You're his wife, which makes you biased and renders your statement unreliable."

Eric, who had been silent until now, finally spoke, "Kelly, we need to talk."

He assumed that by now, she'd realize there was no escaping this conversation.

Eric's tone darkened, his words carrying an unmistakable threat. "Zev is going to prison."

Kelly wasn't surprised. She had suspected all along that Eric's real goal was to use Zev as leverage against her.

And sure enough, he got straight to the point.

"If you have something to say, say it here. I'm not going anywhere with you."

The moment the officers disappeared behind the door with Zev, Eric took a step closer and lowered his voice. "Kelly ... at the Commendation Conference on Thursday, you need to watch your words."
