Chapter 374 Darren's Ex-Girlfriend Shows Up

Seaville Hospital.

Her supervisor had just called Kelly away to discuss an urgent matter.

1318 Pearts

She was completely surprised by what she saw when she walked into the office. The new hospital director. Roy Cantrell, and Beau were sitting there, chatting and laughing over coffee like old pals.

"Kelly, Dr. Lynch dropped by especially to see you," Roy said with a friendly smile.

Beau gave her a once-over, chuckling. "You're looking more and more stunning, Kelly"

Kelly snorted coldly. "Cut the act. What do you want?"

Before Beau could say a word, Eric knocked and stepped into the office.

"Kelly." He looked at her, clearly wanting to get closer.

Kelly took a step back in irritation and shot him a warning glare for him to stay away.

"What's this supposed to be, Dr. Cantrell?" She asked Roy, arms crossed. "What's the point of bringing all of them here?"

Zev had wrapped up work early for once, giving him the rare chance to pick Kelly up after her shift.

"Hey, Darren, have you seen Kelly?" Zev asked as he bumped into Darren and Felix outside the hospital.

Felix immediately ducked behind Darren. He was terrified of pretty much everyone, but especially people like Zev-tall, intense, and intimidating.

Darren used to be a little afraid of Zev too, back when they were both stuck in Solmaris. But deep down, Darren respected him.

Even back then, Zev had always been silently watching out for them-even if no one else noticed, Darren did.

"She's in a meeting with the hospital director," Darren said with a grin. "Still a bit before she's off. You can go wait for her."

Since Darren treated Kelly like his own older sister, that made Zev his brother-in- law.

Zev didn't mind the title one bit. It actually filled him with pride. "Are you two planning to walk home? What if someone attacks you halfway there? My car's out front. I'll have my driver take you home. I'll wait here for Kelly," Zev said.

Darren was about to decline, but when he saw Felix shivering in fear, he nodded. "Alright."

"Don't let your guard down," Zey added, lowering his voice. "Rumors about Clarissa are blowing up all over the internet. We haven't even made a move yet, and someone's already gone after her. These people? They're like cornered animals-they'll lash out." Zev reminded him solemnly, "You need to protect him. Felix's identity is crucial. Once all the evidence against the Lynches is in place, he's the on

10 can finish them. Protect him."

"I will." Darren said, looking at Felix. "I'll keep him safe."

Zev gave Darren's shoulder a firm pat. "And take care of yourself too."

The police had already applied for protective measures. Zev had bodyguards watching him. Felix. meanwhile, had already been exposed to the media, so the Lynches wouldn't dare touch him -for now.

But that didn't mean he was truly safe.

Once Zev left to find Kelly, Felix finally spoke, his voice barely above a whisper. "Darren, he'll keep helping us, right?"noveldrama

He knew who Zev was. He was the CEO of Lockhart Group, a position of significant power and wealth.

In this world, someone like Felix-someone who could disappear without a trace if the wrong people wanted it-needed someone like Zev on his side. Otherwise, the Lynches could wipe him off the earth.

Darren gave him a reassuring nod. "Don't be afraid. We've got your back."

But he knew the truth: Felix was the biggest pawn in this entire power struggle. The Lynches were dangerous-a dark, untouchable force. And the only way to bring them down was to pit an even greater force against them.

And in that clash of titans, people like Felix or his friend, who'd already been silenced and buried, would never be the ones who won.

Just like Darren and Kelly, who'd been sold off to Solmaris for five years thanks to

Beau. Their home was gone. Their lives had changed forever.

“Darren, can we go home now?" Felix asked softly, gripping Darren's arm. He could tell something was wrong. He'd been through enough to recognize emotional wounds when he saw them.

At 13, Felix had been sold to Beluga Club. He'd learned how to read people early. And he knew that those five years in Solmaris had left Darren scarred for life.

Back then, Kelly had lost Eric. Darren had also lost his first love.

"Darren?"

Just as they were about to leave, a woman in a white dress appeared nearby.

She stood there, stunned when she saw Darren. She clutched her purse a little tighter. "It's been a while."

Yeah. It had been a long while.

Darren's expression shifted. He looked at Felix. "Go wait in the car."

Felix hesitated, then slowly let go of Darren's arm, lowering his gaze but not moving.

He recognized the woman. He'd seen her photo-tucked inside one of Darren's books. Her name was Sharon Rehbein. She was Darren's first love. They had started dating in their senior year of high school. Not long after Darren got into trouble in Solmaris, she married someone else.
