Chapter 467 Zev Still Has a Home

Zev didn't look back at Kelly. He just stood there numbly, his fingers gripping the gurney tightly,

The white cloth draped over Oscar's body was painfully hard to look at.

Zev wanted to lift it, but neither he nor Melody had the courage to do so.

"Sorry, Mr. Lockhart, Ms. Isaac... We need to take him to the morgue." The male nurse gave them an apologetic look, waiting for Zev and Melody to step back from

the gurney.

Melody shook her head, crying, her hands clutching the gurney tightly. "No, I want to take him home.

She held Oscar's hand, unwilling to let go.

"Ms. Isaac... Please don't make this harder for us," the male nurse said, looking at Melody with a troubled expression.

Zev also gripped the gurney tightly, refusing to let the nurse take Oscar away.

Even if it meant just holding on to Oscar for one more second...

"Excuse me, could you speak to the family? We understand how hard this is, but hospital policy requires the deceased to be taken to the morgue, and a family member must sign for the cremation. Ms. Isaac, as the deceased's ex-wife, legally... cannot sign." He looked at Kelly with a troubled expression.

Seeing the emotional distress in both Zev and Melody, he could only seek Kelly's help.

Kelly took a deep breath and stood up.

It was ironic-Patrick had caused his own son's death, and now, the only one who could sign for his

cremation was Patrick.

Kelly slowly approached Zev, took his hand, and spoke softly. "Zev, let Oscar go."

Zev's fingers were cold, so cold it broke her heart.

Kelly stared at him sympathetically, wanting nothing more than to hold him.

With his eyes red from crying, Zev stared at Kelly, still refusing to let go. "I can't believe he's dead...'

Zev was on the edge of a breakdown, his hand reaching out to tear away the white cloth covering Oscar's body. "How could he be dead?"

He still couldn't accept that Oscar was gone.

"Mr. Lockhart!" The nurse tried to stop him, but it was too late. Zev had already pulled the cloth away.

Oscar lay motionless on the gurney, his face pale and lifeless.

He was so cold, lying there without a trace of life.
