Hubby 219 Chapter 219 Zev Appeared "Have you been eating well?" 63% Finished Cecil, who had been absent for stime, had finally returned. He appeared to be hurt. Slowly, he walked over to Kelly and, with a gentle motion, placed his hand on her baby bump.
At seven months pregnant, the weight of the baby was unmistakable, her belly round and heavy with life. Kelly, cautious and uneasy, kept her eyes on Cecil.
He stared at her belly, speaking in a tone that was hard to read. "You could still leave him a legacy... Kelly frowned in confusion. "What do you mean by that?" "Nothing," Cecil replied, sneering slightly before standing up and looking her over. "Rest while you can." That night, under the cover of darkness, the peacekeeping unit stormed in, trying to take Kelly by force. But Cecil noticed them immediately.
Hiding in the corner, Kelly's eyes flicked nervously toward him.
Cecil furrowed his brows for a moment but made no move to raise an alarm or intervene.
For the first tin her presence, he lit a cigarette and spoke in a low voice, "The medical facilities here are limited, and the child... is almost due. You should leave." Kelly's expression was one of confusion. "You've been holdinghostage, and now you're just lettinggo?" "My purpose is already fulfilled," Cecil said, leaning against the wall, his words heavy with unspoken meaning. Kelly still couldn't grasp what he meant by "fulfilled." Not wanting to dwell on it too much, she quickly ran from the room, following the peacekeepers as they made their escape under the cover of night.
It was almost as though Cecil had known Gary's team would cfor her. There weren't any guards in his vicinity.
Kelly and the others were able to leave without a hitch.
As she sat in the armored vehicle that was taking her to safety, her heart raced. It all felt like an awful dream. Even after her rescue, she couldn't shake the feeling that she was still trapped in that nightmare.

63% Finished Before they left, the peacekeeping team had been thoroughly checked by medical staff, and there was no way they would've been sent on a mission if anyone was pregnant.
If she hadn't been pregnant when they left, yet was now...
Gary couldn't help but wonder who the father was.
Kelly stayed silent, lost in her own thoughts. She felt like she was still stuck in a daze.
The trauma she had endured left deep psychological scars. Though she could speak, the emotional toll had led to somatization depression. On top of that, the hormonal changes brought on by her pregnancy made her more sensitive than usual.
"If I tell you the child is Zev's, would you believe me?" She feared that no one would believe her.
More than that, she worried Zev wouldn't believe her.
Gary didn't answer right away. After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Kelly, once we get back, I'll help you find somewhere you can recover. Focus on your pregnancy for now. Don't worry about going back to Seaville just yet." Kelly blinked back tears. "Has Zev remarried?" Gary let out a deep breath. "He's doing fine. Don't worry about him.
"Just focus on your pregnancy and getting the baby into the world first," Gary continued, not wanting to say anything that might upset her further.
Kelly fell silent.
The baby was already eight months along, and the birth was imminent.
She didn't want to stir the pot any more than necessary.
As Wade had said, the gap between her and Zev was too vast. It was best to treat everything like a dream.
"Lucas is dead. The threat he posed has been neutralized, but with his death, all of his connections in the country have been severed. However, Cecil has evidence linking Lucas to Seaville. If we can catch him, maybe we can finally take Beau down.
Kelly explained everything to Gary.
All the incriminating evidence was in Cecil's hands.
But Kelly still had no idea where he was hiding.
That was the trump card Cecil had played to align himself with Daniel.
"Alright, we'll handle it from here. You've done well, Kelly ... Thank you," Gary said, giving her a comforting pat on the shoulder. "Live well." 2/3 Chapter 219 Zev Appeared Yes, live well.
No one should wait forever for someone else.
Whatever life Zev was living, he deserved it: She didn't hate him. She just ... couldn't accept it.

Since the birth of the child, Kelly had tried countless times to contact Zev, but every attempt ended in frustration.
Raising the baby alone in the unfamiliar city of Stoneville, she struggled with feelings of isolation. Many nights, she would stay up late, overwhelmed by despair, often breaking down in tears. She longed for Zev to be there, to help her raise the child.
There were nights when she called him in a frantic daze, selfishly wishing for even a little support from him, even if it was just as an unimportant lover.
She felt like she was on the edge of cracking.
But Zev never picked up.
"Mommy..." The little one had started talking. His soft, sweet voice comforted her heart.
Kelly suffered from severe post-partum depression. Theo m somatization Veft her trembling, unable to hold anything for long. But she couldn't bring herself to give up-not with her child still so small.
"Jasper, I'm here." Kelly wiped away her tears and scooped up her son.
She went downstairs to get groceries, living a life full of monotonous, endless cycles.
As she stepped out of the elevator, Kelly froze, her body stiffening as she stared at the door.
