Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 365

Chapter 365 Come After Me

Zev frowned but said nothing.

Lucas was dead. His mission had ended two years ago. There was no need to get involved any further.

That world was a bottomless pit, pulling in generation after generation.

Darkness would never end, but there would always be heroes willing to carry the burden and move forward.

How’s Lockhart Group doing lately?Gary shifted the topic. I heard you poached a major asset from Wagner Group.”

Gary smirked. Zev was impressivehe had managed to lure Quentin away. Are you planning to go head- tohead with Patrick?

Zev let out a scoff. He already handed over full control. There’s no conflict left to have. He’s the one who made a mess of things by bringing in some illegitimate son to inherit the business. Shawn turned on me first.

Gary sighed. We’re still cousins, you know

Save the lecture. If you want to talk someone down, talk to him. He’s the one who never treated me like family.” Zev could see right through Shawn. That man wasn’t just trying to secure his footing in Seaville or manage Wagner Grouphe wanted complete domination. He wouldn’t stop until Lockhart Group was wiped out.

A person like that had no concept of family.

Gary studied Zev for a moment before speaking. You should try to hold back a little. Don’t ruin things completely with Patrick.

He glanced at his watch. You know, after your mom passed, I was too busy with work to take care of you. Patrick’s the one who raised you.”

Zev didn’t respond for a long time. When he finally spoke, his voice was calm. I have no issue with Uncle Patrick. Back when he was running Wagner Group, there was no bad blood between our companies.”

Gary stood up. I’ve got some free time tonight. Let’s have dinner at Patrick’s place. I’ll play mediator and see if I can smooth things over between you and Shawn. Maybe salvage what’s left of your family ties.”

Zev rolled his eyes.

Shawn had always been after everything he had.

Zev didn’t mind business competition, but Shawn played dirtyand he wasn’t just after his company. He wanted to take his wife, too. That was something Zev could never forgive.

Forget it. There’s nothing left between us.Zev rejected the idea outright.

Gary chuckled. All right, all right. Just be there after work. I rarely get to sit down for a meal with you both.

Zev scoffed but didn’t refuse.

Chapter 365 Come After Mc

It wasn’t about patching things up with ShawnIt was about maintaining peace with the rest of the family

Marriages built on business deals might seem like a good idea at first, but they always came with complications.

Zev knew that all too well. He was living proof of it.

If Zev and Shawn truly turned against each other, Zev knew his relationship with Patrick would inevitably suffer as well.

After all, Shawn was Patrick’s son. By choosing to hand the Wagner Group over to him, Patrick had. effectively placed the future of the Wagners in Shawn’s hands.

That meant Patrick and Shawn were now a shared interest group, bound together by power and legacy.

At Seaville Hospital, Kelly had just returned from the emergency ward when she saw Darren helping a young boy out of the rehabilitation center,

How’s your recovery going?Kelly walked over and asked.

Kelly.Darren flashed a smile and moved his injured arm a little. Much better.

Have the Lynches been giving you any trouble lately?Kelly was worried they might resort to desperate measures and try to silence them for good.

The police found a body at the club. The Lynches are caught in a tight spot nowthey wouldn’t dare make a move.Darren shook his head.

For now, the Lynches were keeping their distance.

The little boy beside him, however, looked terrified. The moment he saw someone approaching, he instinctively shrank behind Darren. It was a clear sign of psychological trauma.

A child who had spent years living under constant threats in that kind of environment was bound to carry deep scars.

He clung tightly to Darren’s shirt, too afraid to lift his head.

Have you taken him to see a therapist?Kelly asked. I know a good oneI went to him myself before.She sent Darren a digital copy of the therapist’s business card via WhatsApp.

He’s been getting more and more skittish. He used to talk normally before,Darren admitted. I’ll take him in for a session soon.

Kelly nodded in agreement.
