Hubby 387

Chapter 387 Destined to be Rivals

Shawn's home decoration was minimalistic-pure and stark. Black, white, and gray dominated the space with the only touch of color coming from a few green plants.

The moment Kelly stepped inside, she felt it: cold.

Not in temperature, but in spirit. The house felt lifeless, like no one truly lived there.

"What's this, a funeral home chic?" Zev's mouth was as sharp as ever. The moment he walked in, he started criticizing Shawn's style.

His gaze landed on a large painting hanging on the wall-some bold piece of postmodern art. He couldn't understand it, yet he criticized it anyway. "What even is that? Looks unlucky."

Shawn's face darkened. If it weren't for his upbringing, he might've already thrown a punch.

Not that he could win in a fight anyway.

Zev, grinning wickedly, flopped onto the sleek sofa. "You know what this is? Widow vibes. It screams you will be alone forever. No wonder you're single."

As Shawn poured Kelly a glass of water, his grip tightened so hard his knuckles turned white.

Kelly watched, slightly worried he might shatter the glass in his hand.

"Mmm, Zev, why don't you go cook something?" Kelly suggested, pointing toward the open-concept kitchen.

It was spotless. Not a single trace of grease or food stains. Clearly, Shawn had never used it.

The fridge was cleaner than a showroom model.

Zev scoffed. "This kitchen? Brand new, huh? Never been used. And now you want my wife to cook for you? What's your intention?"

Shawn gritted his teeth. "I already asked my assistant to buy groceries. Can you shut up for five minutes?"

His head was pounding.
