3 Fought to Protect

Finished

"He is not here. If you have any legal matters to discuss, have your lawyer contact ours," Kelly said, not bothering to argue with Clarissa. The woman's shamelessness was beyond belief.

Zey couldn't help but laugh out of sheer frustration. Good thing he had the foresight to prepare for this- Clarissa had always been this brazen.

"Zev! You're a man, and yet you're holding my son hostage?" Clarissa shouted from the doorstep.

Zev motioned for the butler to shut the door, then looked at her and said, "Why don't you take some time to learn the law with your legal team? If you keep causing a scene here or try trespassing, I won't hesitate to call the police."

Clarissa, fuming, started to charge forward, but her lawyer quickly held her back. "Ms. Lynch, we should approach this strategically."

Clarissa glared at Kelly, who stood calmly in the yard. "Kelly, don't think you can use my son to get a share of the family assets, I won't let you get away with it!"

Kelly found the whole thing ridiculous.

"She's actually kind of pathetic," Kelly remarked, glancing at Zev. "She wants too much. Her greed has stripped away every last bit of humanity in her."

To Clarissa, family, love-none of it mattered. All she saw was profit.

Living like that was just sad.

Caden checked the time-just two hours. Hardly worth heading back home. "Charles, let's go shopping."
