Zev was feeling restless and eager for a bit of action. He figured the best way to test how well his body had recovered was to get into a real, hands-on situation.

But Kelly wasn't about to let him risk getting hurt. Before Zev could make any move, the police arrived.

The officers quickly reviewed the security footage and confirmed that a few people had made threatening gestures and used inappropriate language in a public area. They were promptly escorted away for a little warning.

Kelly couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Grumpy, you and your clueless son are so alike—when you're upset, you both like to shut everyone out."

The nanny was at home with their child, which gave Kelly and Zev some free time to work out and enjoy a little shopping.

Kelly looked him up and down, eyeing him skeptically. "Kind of...
