Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby

Always 16 Chapter 16 Unfamiliar Man Kelly scrambled to her feet, gripping her phone tightly as she watched Beau and Regina warily.

Beau's expression darkened, his eyes turning sharp. "Kelly, how much did you hear?" Kelly clutched her phone even tighter and started inching toward the door.

"Dad! I heard her take a picture- she must have recorded everything!" Regina's voice was sharp with alarm.

Taking a deep breath. Kelly suddenly spun around and bolted for the door.

Beau's face stiffened. If Kelly got out and spread the recording → "She's running!" Regina stomped her foot in frustration.

"Call Wally. He needs to find her and take care of this," Beau said in a low, firm voice..

Regina nodded and immediately dialed Wally's number.

Finished Wally was the Lynches' enforcer, the one who handled their dirty work. Officially, he worked as a security guard at the hospital, but everyone knew his real job.. "She's still in the administrative building. Yeah. You need to find her and make sure everything's handled. The recording is on her phone, Regina instructed coldly.

Just then, the door swung open. "Kelly?" Eric had returned. He took in the scene- Beau and Regina standing together, tension thick in the air.

Regina stiffened and quickly hung up the phone, tucking it behind her back. "Eric..." Eric's eyes narrowed with suspicion. "What's going on? Where's Kelly?" Beau's expression remained calm as he spoke, "Eric, Regina, and I were just discussing the compensation for Michael's parents. Sof our words might have cacross the wrong way... And we had no id "Kelly wouldn't do that, Eric cut him off immediately.

Regina glared at him. "You're still defending her? If she dares to post anything that damages my or my dad's reputation, I won't let her get away with it!" "She won't," Eric insisted. "Lettalk to her first. Just don't scare her. He turned to Beau, his expression wary. He knew exactly what kind of methods Beau was capable of Beau's gaze darkened slightly before he nodded. "Eric, convince Kelly to delete the recording. Whatever she wants in exchange, just letknow." Eric gave a small nod. Tll make sure she deletes it." Beau parted Eric's shoulder. "We're family, Eric. The Lynches' interests are your interests ton Eric said nothing.

Regina, still furning, crossed her arms. "And when exactly do you plan on annulling your marriage with her?" Eric sighed, rubbing his temple. Regina, can you just givestime?" 200 Regina scoffed. "You know I'm not patient. If you won't handle it, I will." With that, she turned and stormed out.

Eric ran a hand through his hair, then turned and rushed out to look for Kelly.

2:33 PM - Chapter 16 Unfamiliar Man Finished "Kelly? "Kelly?" His heart pounded with anxiety. He knew firsthand how the Lynches operated- if they got to Kelly before he did, she would be in danger.

Downstairs, Kelly barely made it out of the administrative building before she ran straight into Wally.

He reached for her phone, trying to snatch it from her hands. Kelly panicked and dodged away, sprinting toward the storage FOONL "Cout." Wally called from outside, his voice cold. He kicked the door hard. Kelly shran back, gripping her phone. Fear crept up her spine. She had no idea how to protect the recording.

Seeing that Wall Wally was closing in, Kelly hurriedly opened Whatand sent the video to Zev.

The signal inside the storage room was weak, making the upload painfully slow.

She anxiously watched the progress bar crawl forward. Then, just as Wally kicked the door open, the video finally went through Wally grabbed Kelly by the hair and yanked her out. "Where's the phone? Hand it over." Kelly clutched her phone tightly.

But she was no match for Wally. He easily wrenched it from her grip.

Just then, Zev called.

Wally immediately hung up, but when he tried to unlock the phone, he hit a roadblock. "Tellthe password." Kelly refused. His expression darkened as he raised his hand to strike her.

"Kelly!" Eric's voice rang out as he rushed in, throwing a punch that sent Wally staggering back. In the smotion, he snatched the phone from Wally's grasp.

"Get lost! Don't touch her!" Eric stood protectively in front of Kelly Wally narrowed his eyes at Eric, but after a brief pause, he slowly backed away and left.

"Givethe phone," Kelly signed, reaching out.

"Kelly, what did you record? Let's just delete it, okay? Listen to me-

this won't end well for you. The world isn't as simple as you think. People like them can do whatever th they want, and you won't get justice. Just let it go." Eric didn't return the phone. He didn't even check if she was hurt-his first instinct was to unlock her screen.

The first attempt failed.

But on the second try, he got in-because the password was Kelly's birthday.

"Give it back." Kelly's face darkened as she angrily signed, trying to snatch the phone back.

Enc didn't want to hurt her, so he simply held her in place, keeping her locked in his arms. Meanwhile, he opened the gallery and deleted the videos and photos.

By the tKelly finally wrestled the phone away, the damage was done.

Chapter 16 Unfamiliar Man Eric didn't dodge. Instead, he pulled her into a forceful embrace. "Kelly, I'm doing this for your good." Disgust twisted in Kelly's stomach. She shoved him away, staggering toward the exit with an uneven gait.

Her ankle throbbed with pain- Wally had stomped on it earlier, probably dislocating it.

But the physical pain was nothing compared to the cold disappointment sinking into her chest.

Eric had changed. He was no longer the Eric she remembered.

It took her a long time, but she finally made it to the hospital entrance.

"Kelly..." The moment she stepped outside, a tall figure ran up and pulled her into a tight embrace.

#Finished

His heartbeat was fast, his breath ragged. A baseball cap shielded his face, and beneath his coat, he was still wearing a hospital Kown. The scent of blood clung to him. It was Zev. The second he received Kelly's video, he had bolted out of the hospital. He didn't think he only knew one thing: He couldn't let anything happen to her.

"Kelly!" Just then, Eric ran out after her.

The moment he reached the entrance, his gaze landed on then unfamiliar man holding Kelly in his arms. His face darkened. His eyes sharpened with suspicion.
