Hubby 200

Chapter 200 Clarissa Plans to Seize the Lockhart Family Fortune Using Her Child

Zev's accident had been a close call.

Kelly was still shaken and hadn't fully recovered from the shock.

"Kelly," Faye called her name softly as Kelly stepped into the elevator with her.

Kelly snapped out of her daze and shook her head. "I'm fine. We should go home, wash up, and get some sleep."

After settling Faye in, Kelly sat on the couch, staring at her phone in silence for a long time.

The next day, as soon as Kelly arrived at the hospital, Melody and Darren came into her office.

"Kelly, you're in early today. I heard you took Faye in?" Darren sounded annoyed. "Why are you looking after Regina's daughter?"

Melody also frowned at Kelly. "That girl is nothing but trouble. No matter what you do, she's not going to change. It's in her blood."

"She's still young. With the right guidance, she might have a chance," Kelly murmured.

Melody sighed. "Kelly, I know you well enough to say this-you wouldn't do something so controversial at a time like this. Everyone at the hospital is talking. They're saying you still have feelings for Eric and that you're using this as an excuse to get back together with him."

Kelly stayed silent.

"Are you dead set on joining the peacekeeping mission? Are you afraid you won't make it back like five years ago, so you're creating a distraction to make it easier for Zev when he loses you?"

Melody had known Kelly for years-she could see right through her.

Kelly chuckled. "That was the plan at first. But when Zev had his accident, I panicked and told him the truth."

Melody let out a breath of relief. "Kelly, you were the one who told me that communication is key in a relationship."

Kelly nodded. "By the way, Melody, how are things between you and Oscar?"
