Revenge With My Undercover Cop Hubby

Chapter 443 Kelly Confronts Patrick

Early in the morning, Patrick's driver arrived to pick up Kelly and Shawn.

"Mr. Shawn, Ms. Kelly, City Hall is now open. The driver knocked on the door.

Patrick was growing impatient.

"Kelly has a stomachache. I'm taking her to the hospital first," Shawn said with a frown, signaling the driver to step aside.

The driver glanced at the bodyguards accompanying him and blocked Shawn. "Mr. Shawn, no matter what, you should get the marriage certificate first."

"My stomach hurts..." Kelly leaned against the couch, her voice weak and strained.

Shawn angrily looked at the driver. "What do you mean? Tell Dad to call me himself! Right now, Kelly's health comes first. If something happens to her or the baby, will you take responsibility?"

The driver hesitated, eyeing Kelly clutching her stomach in pain. After a moment, he relented. "Fine. I'll take you to the hospital, but get checked quickly. You still need to go to City Hall afterward."

Shawn snorted and carried Kelly to the car.

Throughout the ride, the driver kept calling Patrick for instructions. However, Patrick had been taken in for questioning overnight and wasn't answering.

With no orders from Patrick, the driver had no choice but to take them to the hospital first.

After an examination, Kelly was admitted and had to stay for at least three days.

That meant that even if Patrick was released, he wouldn't be able to do anything for now.

"There's only a 48-hour window for questioning. When Patrick gets out, he'll be furious," Shawn muttered, slicing an apple for Kelly. "He's naturally suspicious. He probably already has doubts. Do you have a plan?"

Kelly remained silent, leaning back against the pillows.

She had none.

Patrick wasn't stupid. He had likely figured out that she had no real intention of marrying Shawn and was only buying time.

Her only option was to wait for Zev to return.

She had nothing else.

Shawn's frown deepened. If Patrick decided to act ruthlessly, Kelly would be in danger.

Patrick wouldn't hesitate to hurt Zev, so Kelly was no exception.

The only real threat left for the Lockharts was Kelly, an outsider. For Patrick, killing her wasn't a problem at

all.

"It hasn't even been 48 hours, and Patrick is already out," Oscar said at the door

of the ward, his expression urgent.

"Already out? Kelly asked in disbelief, checking the time nervously,

It had been from 3:00 am until now-11:00 a.m.

"The lawyers and PR team at Wagner Group aren't idle. Patrick has connections in high places, and besides... Beau was just saying. He won't risk producing evidence. We may have made a false alarm

Oscar leaned against the wall, rubbing his temples.

Patrick wasn't going to be convicted. Once the chaos settled, he would make his

move.

Kelly lowered her gaze. She had seen that coming, but there was no way around

it.

If Patrick kept pushing her into marriage, she knew she couldn't truly go through with marrying Shawn.

"When Patrick gets out, he'll come after you," Oscar predicted.

Patrick's true aim was to slowly dismantle the Lockharts' influence in Seaville.

At the same time, he was expanding his network and businesses overseas.

"Then let him," Kelly murmured. She had no choice but to face him directly.

"If he's behind this..." Oscar slumped onto the couch, his voice weak. "Then Aunt Helena, Uncle Sylvester, and Zev ..."

Guilt weighed heavily on him.

Ever since he had begun to suspect Patrick, sleep had been impossible.

He kept questioning what kind of man had been pretending to be a caring father and uncle all this time.

A shiver ran down his spine as fear and disbelief settled in.

Patrick controlled countless industries overseas, along with illegal trade networks beyond Drakonia. He orchestrated the dark web dealings and underground operations from the shadows.noveldrama

What kind of person was he? When had he begun his secret empire? Everything was executed flawlessly-no missing funds, no financial trails. He funneled money into armed groups in Oasisvale and set up bases in Abbysia, ensuring that every transaction remained within a concealed cycle, leaving no loopholes behind.

In Seaville, he wore a different mask. As the CEO of Wagner Group, he seemed unremarkable on the surface, known for his philanthropy and even serving as the newly appointed president of the Seaville Charity Association.

His public image was impeccable. No matter what obstacles arose, nothing seemed capable of bringing him down.

Could someone so calculated and untouchable truly be the Patrick everyone thought they k

Oscar felt as if he were trapped in a dream, unable to fully believe or reject the reality before him.

"Why do you think your grandpa gave you the shares instead of Patrick?" Kelly asked, watching Oscar closely.
