HappyNovelChapter 242 Is Ken a Bad Guy? Regina stopped talking, overwhelmed with envy and secretly hoping for Kelly's downfall.
Finished "No matter what happens, don't stir up any issues. Stay hand look after the kids, especially Faye!" Eric warned Regina.
"Faye is rebellious now. She's already so spiteful at her age. Just the other day, while my back was turned, she actually tried to push her brother down the stairs! How am I supposed to manage her?" Regina snapped in frustration.

At a private dining room.
Melody invited Kelly, Zev, and Darren to a meal at an exclusive restaurant with a personal chef.
"This place is owned by my cousin. The food here is fantastic. I wanted to bring you all to try it. It's a quiet spot, and since we're the only customers today, we can talk freely," Melody explained as she guided them inside.
Kelly acknowledged her with a nod before turning to Zev. "So, you're from the Lockharts, meaning Oscar Wagner must be your cousin, correct?" Zev guiltily nodded. "Yeah..." "Oh? So all that acting like strangers in front of us before must have been tough on you," Kelly commented flatly. Feeling uneasy, Zev grasped her hand and tried to soothe her. "Honey, I'm sorry." Melody laughed. "So, that means I am your sister-in-law." "Alright, my sister-in-law," Zev shamelessly agreed.

"Don't flatter him too much, or he'll get too full of himself," Kelly sighed with a small laugh.
"We're here to discuss the Lynches," Darren shifted the topic.
He pulled a folder from his bag and placed it in front of Kelly and Zev. "This contains details from our two-year investigation into the Lynches. Clarissa's businesses have ties to illegal dealings.

With the Lynches' influence, that kind of cover-up wouldn't be possible without someone powerful backing them," Darren said carefully, casting a wary glance at Zev. "Melody and I suspect Mr. Wade." "That's impossible. My grandpa built his wealth through his own skills. Even if he was tricked by Clarissa, he would never sink to her level. Moreover, if he had been supporting her, she wouldn't be clinging to those clubs so desperately," Zev said, shaking his head.
"Someone must be backing Clarissa," Kelly agreed.
