Chapter 408 Using Clarissa

When Kelly returned to the hotel room, Zev was still on a video call with Hanson.

"Mr. Zion, you were right," Hanson said, his tone fight with frustration. "I just took a sick leave, and already someone's trying to get rid of me. Someone messed with my work today. There's a complaint against me, but Mr. Ashford suppressed it for now. Once it starts, though, I don't know how long I can hold on."

Hanson had been careful, handling everything himself, but hidden attacks were impossible to defend. against.

Zev leaned back against the bed, rubbing his temples. "You need to be extra careful right now. I can't be there, and the company needs someone I can trust."

Hanson nodded. "Don't worry, Mr. Zion. Even if something happens, and I need to leave the company for a while, I'll make sure to arrange for someone trustworthy to take over."

Zev exhaled in relief. "I trust you."

There were so few people he could trust anymore. This was a critical time. He needed someone reliable to stay in the company.

"Mr. Zion, there's one more thing... " Hanson hesitated before speaking again. “I promise I won't betray you, but I need to tell you ... a Wagner Group guy tried to recruit me."

Zev's face darkened. He'd suspected it, but hearing it still made him furious. "And the name?" Zev's voice was cold, controlled.

"Stuart," Hanson murmured.

Zev frowned deeply. "I see."

Kelly set the late-night snack on the table, then sat next to Zev, her eyes full of concern as she watched him.

Once the call ended, Kelly walked over, gently rubbing Zev's face. "Supper."

"Wait. You got me supper?" Zev jumped out of bed and glanced at the food. "This isn't what I like...

Kelly, who always spoiled Zev, would've only gotten him his favorites. While a few of the dishes were what he liked, most of them looked like leftovers, packed up.

"Honey ... Who did you eat with? You even got me leftovers?" Zev asked, his eyes teasing.

Kelly shot him a knowing look. "No one touched it. Just eat it."

Zev, not giving up, pouted. "Honey, don't you love me anymore? You didn't even bring me when you met your friend. Do I embarrass you?"

Kelly ignored him, her tone flat. "Fine, you don't have to eat it."

Zev wasn't ready to let it go. He grabbed Kelly and pulled her close. "Honey ... you're making me feel

insecure."

Kelly sighed, sitting on Zev's lap, resigning herself to his persistence. "Vincent's here on. siness trip. He wanted to meet me to thank me for helping him."
