Chapter 27 Kelly Strikes Back at Regina
Finished
Eric's expression darkened. He slammed his tray onto the table and shot Regina a glare. "Enough, Regina! Haven't you said enough?"
"Eric! I'm your wife! Why are you always defending that filthy woman who spread her legs for terrorists?" Regina snapped, her voice sharp and furious.
Smack!
Eric's hand struck her cheek, the sharp smack of the slap echoing through the crowded cafeteria
Regina clutched her cheek in shock. "Eric... Are you crazy? You slapped me right in front of everyone?"
Eric rubbed his temples, his throat tight with frustration.
He felt like he was losing his mind.
"You're going to regret this! Regina hissed. She swept her arm across the table, sending trays crashing to the floor before storming off
But she hadn't gone far when she ran into Kelly.
"B*tch. Regina spat venomously, "Why aren't you dead?"
If Kelly had died, none of this trouble would exist. If Kelly were gone,
her heritage home would pass to Eric. With Kelly's properties and compensation money, Regina and Eric could live in comfort- without her in the way.
But she just had to come back alive.
Regina's eyes blazed with hatred, but Kelly met her glare without a flicker of fear.
Regina was ruthless-yet hardly clever.
Kelly pulled out her phone. With a few I
taps, the Al voice read aloud the text 2
Zev had taught her
prepare.
"I am Eric's wife. As long as I refuse to divorce him, your marriage will be invalid, and your daughter will be considered an illegitimate child born out of wedlock.
The robotic voice was flat and emotionless, yet it cut through the cafeteria like a blade, dripping with mockery.
"No matter how you slander me, no matter how hard you try to destroy me, you can't erase the truth-
I am Eric's wife. My return scares you. That's why you're spreading lies. Because deep down, you know you're the homewrecker."
The cafeteria fell silent as everyone turned their gaze to Kell
Regina's face twisted in fury, but before she could speak,
Kelly played the next message.
"I went missing for five years. Eric and I were together for ten. But he only declared me dead two years ago-
after which he married you. Yet your daughter is already five, which means you were already sleeping with him while Eric and I were still together-
long before I disappeared. So, tell me, Regina-who's the homewrecker here?"
Kelly's hands trembled, her eyes burning with hatred as they locked onto Regina.
This was her counterattack.
She wasn't afraid of her. She had survived worse. Regina might have power and connections- but Kelly didn't care.
Eric's chest tightened with panic. He rushed toward Kelly, his hand reaching for her phone. "Kelly, stop it!"
But Kelly stepped back, her cold gaze carrying a hint of warning

Their was no reason to spare him dignity. He had already chosen betrayal.
