Hubby 195 Chapter 195 I Want You 66% Finished At the hospital entrance, a car had crashed straight into the outer wall, leaving behind a scene of chaos and destruction.
Ambulances blared their sirens, and police cars wailed in the distance.
A crowd had gathered, murmuring in shock.
"This is insane. Was the driver drunk?" "Did someone get hit? That car looked like it was going straight for someone! Where's the person who was in front of it?" Kelly shoved through the crowd like a mad woman. The moment she saw the wreckage, her legs gave out, and she collapsed to the ground.
Her mouth opened, but no sound cout. The shock was too much.
Clenching her fists so hard they trembled, she scrambled forward, trying to push the car away with all her strength.
But she wasn't strong enough.
"Zev ...
"Zev ..." She broke down, sobbing.

Zev, I don't love him-please, please be okay!" She cried hysterically, desperately trying to shove the car, her words tumbling out in a frantic, breathless plea.
"Zev!" She kept calling his nover and over. And in that moment, something finally becclear.
It wasn't just gratitude. It wasn't just habit.
She loved him.
"Then why did you try to pissoff on purpose?" a familiar voice cfrom the other side of the car. Zev was injured-his shoulder hunched in pain, scratches marking his face-but he had climbed out from the wreck, smiling at her.
Kelly froze. Then she burst into tears and threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around him as tightly as she could.
Zev winced, his teeth gritted from the pain, but he didn't say a word. He was afraid that if she realized he was hurt, she'd let go.

Zev chuckled and shook his head. "I dodged in time. I think my shoulder's just dislocated." 300%0 Finished Doctors and police rushed in, pulling the injured driver from where he had slumped over the deployed airbag. "Get the wounded to the ER immediately!" Zev's eyes darkened as he stared at the driver.
Whoever was behind the wheel had been aiming for him. Lucas had been keeping him under surveillance for a long tbut had never ordered a hit-he needed Zev alive. That meant whoever sent this attacker wasn't Lucas.
It seemed that after his identity as the Lockhart heir was exposed, more than a few people saw him as a threat. "Zev, let's go to the hospital," Kelly pleaded, grabbing his hand. Tears were still streaking down her face as she tried to pull him toward the doctor.
But Zev caught her wrist instead and pulled her into his arms. "I'm sorry..." he whispered.
Kelly clutched Zev's shirt tightly, sobbing even harder. "You scaredto death." "I'm sorry..." Zev apologized again.
"I should be the one apologizing..." Kelly tightened her embrace around him, her voice choked with tears. "I shouldn't have said those things to upset you. I shouldn't have ignored your Whatmessages and made you cfind me. That was too dangerous." "No, I should be the one saying sorry. You were mad attoday, weren't you? Did someone from my grandpa's side clooking for you?" Zev had figured it out the moment Wade showed up at his place. Wade never made a move unless he was certain of the outcome-so he must have sent someone to find Kelly.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have hidden my identity from you. But I never meant to deceive you ... I just never cared about being the Lockhart heir, so I didn't bother saying anything..." Zev hugged her tightly, his heart still gripped by fear. "Kelly, being your husband means more tothan being the Lockhart heir." "Shut up," Kelly snapped at him.
Zev chuckled. "Kelly, did you just say you like me?" Kelly froze. "Did I?" She couldn't even remember what she had said in the heat of the moment.
"You said you don't like Eric anymore, that you only said those things to upset me. You said you like me. Kelly, say it again," Zev's voice was soft, pleading-he wanted to hear her say it.
Because if she did, even dying would be worth it.
Kelly lowered her head, refusing to speak.
The police finished checking the scene and, seeing that Zev insisted he was fine, took the driver in for 273 ue, o may Chapter 195 I Want You 66% Finished
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA doctor examined Zev-his shoulder was dislocated but could be reset, and his other injuries were minor. They treated the bruises and applied medication. Kelly stayed with him the entire time, silent, her eyes still red.
She was still terrified of losing him.
"Kelly, you still haven't said you like me." Zev tugged at her hand, coaxing her in a low voice, "Kelly, honey...
Kelly kept her head down, her voice barely audible, "Zev, I think I might like you. I want you...
It was more than she had imagined.
Because earlier, she had been truly, absolutely terrified.
"Oh? You want me?" Zev smirked, teasing her. "Not here. We have to go hfirst ..."
Kelly was so exasperated she didn't know whether to laugh or cry "You j*rk...."." Kelly.." Zev took the opportunity to pull her into his arms. "I love you." Kelly stiffened. Zev rarely said things like this. His love had always been something he showed through actions, not words.
Hearing him say those three words now, her heart pounded wildly in her chest.
"Clarissa is pregnant with your child. Your grandpa will never let us be together," she murmured, trying to change the subject.
"D*mn it! I never ... " Zev had just started to explain when the hospital room door burst open. Wade rushed in with Clarissa and Ken, all of them looking flustered. Zev's expression darkened instantly. He pulled Kelly behind him protectively and eyed them warily. "What are you doing here?" 200 li
