Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby novel Chapter 455

Chapter 455 Come Back Alive

The kitchen at the Lockhart Mansion caught fire, prompting a visit from the fire department. The incident made the news, with reports noting that thankfully, no one was injured.

No lives were lost, but the fire happened–giving Nancy something to report back. With his obsessive and suspicious nature, Patrick would find some peace of mind.

Oscar stayed at Kelly’s until the fire was completely extinguished before he left.

Cecil refused to leave, saying the mansion was spacious.

Kelly had no choice but to let him stay. After Oscar left, she said, “The kitchen’s burned out, so we’ll be

eating instant noodles to

Cecil frowned. “Not instant noodles again. I’ve had more than enough of those over the years.

Kelly looked at Cecil. “Instant noodles or noodle snacks, pick one.”

Cecil eyed Kelly. “Can’t you order takeout?”

Kelly nodded. “I can, but only enough for myself.”

Cecil nodded. “Fine, then you can skip eating and give it to me.”

“Zev will be sneaking back later, so I need to save it for him,” Kelly said, sounding apologetic.

“That’s hurtful … ” Cecil sprawled on the sofa, staring at the pickle–flavored instant noodles Kelly had made. “I prefer beef flavor.”

“Take it or leave it,” Kelly said, no longer afraid of Cecil. The threats and intimidation from Cecil earlier were now backfire territory.

Cecil recognized that Kelly was someone who didn’t forgive easily.

Just as the takeout arrived, Zev climbed through the backyard window. “Honey, the house caught fire. Are you alright?”

Zev immediately hugged Kelly, inspecting her from head to toe.

“Don’t ask if you’ve already sent me,” Cecil reminded Zev. “There’s no point asking that now.”

Zev eyed Cecil. “Why are you still here? Leave immediately.”

“It’s so comfy here. That old house is too quiet, it’s eerie. I want to stay here,” Cecil bragged, lounging comfortably.

Zev wanted to argue but hesitated, fearing the noise. He clenched his jaw. “Cecil, don’t push it.”

“Patrick ordered Nancy to target Kelly because he’s desperate. Now that Ken controls the Wagner Group and is safe with Gary, Patrick can’t touch him. So instead, he’s fixated on killing Kelly,” Cecil reasoned, glancing at Zev. “And are we going to rely on those bodyguards Kelly hired?”

Kelly looked at Zev, realizing he was right.

Her bodyguards were from Drakonia, lacking real combat experience.

“Okay, you can stay, but try not to get noticed,” Zev conceded.

“Once this mission ends… after I retire, I plan to start my own security company. Military training, catering to rich clients like you. Remember to give me some business, Cecil said, grinning at Zev

Before Zev could respond, Cecil grew serious, sitting up straight. “If… I come back alive.

Zev sat quietly. “We’ll all come back alive.”

Cecil smiled. “You have a wife and kids waiting for you. You need to survive…”

Zev looked at Cecil. “Beau’s illegitimate son is under Patrick’s control. Oscar’s plan is for us to secretly rescue the kid and hold him in our custody…

Only then would Beau talk.

But Patrick’s mercenaries from Abbysia and Solmaris were there. On their side, there were only Cecil and

Zev.

“I’ll go alone,” Cecil said casually, wanting Zev to stay behind.

“No way, we go together. Do you know those mercenaries from Abbysia and Solmaris are here in Drakonia, under Patrick’s command?” Zev said, frowning. There was no way he was letting Cecil go alone.

“It’s because they’re all here that I don’t want you to go,” Cecil said, glancing at Kelly’s stomach. “Your wife’s pregnant. Spend this time with her. I’ve got my team; you don’t need to worry.”

Zev disagreed. “If we go, we go together; if we come back, we come back together.”

“I nearly killed you with that shot. Let me repay you,” Cecil said, holding up his instant noodles. “Got any beef–flavored ones?”

Kelly placed the takeout on the table, revealing enough fried chicken for two.

Cecil grinned, taking a bite. “Don’t worry about me. I’m tougher. If you come with me, I won’t let you die.” Kelly looked at Cecil, exasperated. “Why did you choose to go undercover in Oasisvale back then?”

It must have taken someone without ties to disappear for

SO many years.

no family, no commitments.”

In their line of work, operatives were chosen carefully. Orphans were ideal–no family, no leverage, no one to retaliate against.

Cecil had placed life and death beyond his concerns.

Though he appeared carefree and reckless, he was a true man, a brave soul.

“Seaville still has tasks waiting for you,” Cecil said to Zev. “I’ll handle Beau’s place alone while you protect Kelly.”

Kelly’s current situation was incredibly dangerous.

Zev couldn’t leave.

Zev remained silent, his head lowered.

He hoped Cecil would come back alive, wanted him to survive.

Finished

That night, Cecil slept in the guest room, while Kelly and Zev slept in the master bedroom.

Around midnight, someone sneaked into the house, slipping past security unnoticed, indicating the monitoring team was asleep.

The intruder crept into the living room, heading toward the master bedroom.
