Hubby 233 Chapter 233 Clarissa's Shameless Occupation of the House Zey turned to Kelly and gave a small nod. "Okay" He was just worried that Kelly might feel wronged, living here and dealing with the situation.
Finished "Zion, these past few years, Shane and I have missed you so much. I'm really sorry. Grandpa asked us to stay here, saying... you would cback sooner or later, and that the child is still young... Could you, please, not kick us out?" Clarissa said, her eyes red, choking back tears as she looked at Zev.
It was obvious-this was a calculated pity play, She was betting that Zev would soften.
Kelly stood still, not daring to meet Zev's eyes.
She was afraid she might see a hint of sympathy in them.
If it were Eric standing here, he would've probably agreed by now.

Two years' worth of rent-this place would easily rent for two million a year. That's four million for two years, so hurry up and pay. Otherwise, I'll call the police," Zev said angrily.
Then, he turned to Caden. "Is two million too little for her?" Caden quickly calculated. "Actually, yes. This is a standalone house, with a large area, plus a butler and maid. The facilities are all included, and with utilities and property fees, it would easily be three to five million." Zev's eyes lit up. Making money was so simple and easy. "I'll charge you the market rate-three million a year, including utilities, property fees, and the cost of the housekeeper. That's six million total." He then glanced at the butler. "What are you waiting for? Go prepare the lease agreement." The butler froze for a moment, too afraid to move. Seeing that Zev wasn't joking, she had no choice but to set her hesitation aside.
Zev then turned to the nanny. "Make sure to check everything thoroughly, and use a light to look around. If anything is missing, or if I can't find something of mine, you'll be the one to pay for it." The maid turned pale in fear, quickly nodding. "Mr. Zion, I'll check right away." Kelly stood by, stunned, watching Zev.
She had thought that Zev might soften or that he might stand firm, but she never expected him to actually charge rent.
No wonder he cfrom a finance family.
Like father, like son-his parents made their first fortune with ease.
Six million for this deal? Not bad at all.

The little boy cried out as she squeezed his hand too hard. "Mom... it hurts." Clarissa quickly let go, crouching down to look at the boy.
Finished After all, Shane was her trump card in the battle for the Lockhart family fortune, so she couldn't afford to hurt him. "Shane, I'm sorry....
Then, Clarissa turned to Kelly and Zev, tears in her eyes. "The child is innocent... Shane and I have lived here for two years, how could you be so heartless?" "Are you serious? Have we met more than twice? Do we know each other well? Your kid's innocent, but that's not my problem," Zev said, shaking his head, amused by Clarissa's audacity.
Clarissa looked down at her son and softly said, "Shane, please, ask Daddy not to kick us out." "Daddy..." the little boy called out to Zev. "Please don't kick us out." "Hey... don't just start calling anyone your dad," Zev said, stepping back with a look of refusal, hiding behind Caden. "Call him, not me." Caden, holding Jasper, also stepped back. "Are you crazy? I wouldn't dare ... " Getting involved with the Lynches, a family of leeches, would be a disaster. Jasper, intrigued, looked at Shane. "This is, my daddy ..." Seeing Zev's refusal, Clarissa turned to Kelly, tears in her eyes. "Kelly ... I was the wife Zion's grandfather chose for him. Over the years, Grandpa announced our engagement publicly and even held a wedding. Even though we never officially registered our marriage, I'm still Zion's legal wife. We have a child together, and everyone in Seaville knows he's my husband. Please ... can you let him be with me?" Kelly stood silently, taking a deep breath.
Clarissa was too clever to make such foolish and shameless statements without a reason.
It was obvious that there must be reporters nearby.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKelly glanced behind her, and sure enough, a few paparazzi were hiding in the bushes outside the house.
Clarissa was well-prepared, aiming to start a media war.
"I'm legally married to Zev. We got our marriage certificate at City Hall two and a half years ago, long before your so-called engagement and m wedding. As someone who shamelessly interfered with another family, what gives you the right to askto let him go? Do you even deserve him?" Kelly raised her voice, making sure the people outside could hear. But Clarissa wasn't worried. She knew the people outside would edit the footage to fit their story.
"Kelly, is this your way of getting back atfor what my sister did to you with Eric? You're trying to steal my husband now, right?" Clarissa started spouting nonsense.
"Watch your words. This is my husband," Kelly said firmly, standing protectively in front of Zev.

"Now, get out of my house, and don't forget to pay the rent," Zey said m firmly, insisting Clarissa leave. "That's enough!" Outside, a black sedan cto a stop, and Wade stepped out with an intimidating presence.
