Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192: Chapter 192 Chaos...

Kelly’s POV

I was sitting in front of Klay. Beside me was Pierce. We’re in our house and we called Klay here to talk about what we need to do. There was a series of deafening silence reigning us. There are so many things going on in my mind. I feel awkward. I was used to lashing out at Klay whenever I saw him and seeing him now, after everything, felt awkward.

Pierce cleared his throat. “We need your help.”

Pierce has always been ambitious and proud but he knows when to lower down his pride and that’s probably one of his traits that I like. He knows what to say and what to do at the right time especially now that he’s matured enough to understand every point of view of the story.

Klay’s gaze remained on me for a few seconds before he turned to Pierce. “I’m willing to do anything.”

“Connor Foster,” Pierce started as he sighed. “After everything that has happened. I know that he’ll plot something against Kelly.”

Klay’s forehead creased. “Did you know who Connor Foster is? Aside from being one of the cunning business tycoon, he’s an inactive member of the triad.”

My forehead creased. “Triad?”

He nodded. “The illegal organization I belong to. My father’s mafia organization was protected and funded by the triad. This is a higher organization consisting of different powerful people in the whole world.”

I swallowed hard. “And...Connor Foster is a member?”

“Inactive member. That is why I couldn’t find evidence to turn him over to the authorities. He wasn’t active so he wasn’t seen in different illegal appointments.”

I sucked my breath and looked at Pierce. So, staying quiet until now is a good choice for us. I didn’t know that. I dig so hard but I didn’t know that part of the truth...or maybe that’s what Luke found out that’s why he was killed and no one paid for it.

“He will need the triad’s help now,” Pierce said with a serious face. “He’s angry so he’ll plot something to harm Kelly. He’ll let his guard down because his family is falling apart.”

I nodded. “He’s right. His sons are slowly drifting away. He won’t let them so he’ll find a way to make them turn their back on me. He might...frame me up for something.”

“Let him frame you up,” Klay said and glanced at Pierce. “We’ll make it look like he’s succeeding and when he finally thinks he’s winning, we’ll drop the bomb on his face.”

“Won’t that be dangerous for Kelly? She’s pregnant, Carver.”

Klay’s lips parted as he looked at me and swallowed hard. He cleared his throat and sighed before he slowly nodded.

“T-Then...keep them safe.”

Pierce looked at me. His eyes were worried so I nodded at him because I trust that he’ll keep me safe.

After the short meeting with Klay, he immediately left. I tried to make him stay even for the sake of our past since he took care of me when I was still young and naive. He saved me before and treated me with care. I still value the good memories we had but I admit it couldn’t erase the bad things he did.

Klay insisted on leaving, leaving me and Pierce alone in the house. The guards are scattered everywhere so I know we’re safe. Even Ana, Yara, and Mary have guards on their own, sent by Pierce.

I lay on the bed beside Pierce after taking a quick bath. He immediately wrapped his arms around my waist and buried his face in my neck. I smiled as I rested my leg on his leg and hugged him like a baby.

“Goodnight, mommy and our baby,” he whispered as he kissed my hair.

I smiled and squeezed myself in his chest again. “Goodnight, daddy.”

We slept peacefully that night. I don’t know why even if there’s a huge mess circulating around and there was a threat in our lives especially mine, I found myself peacefully sleeping inside Pierce’s arms. Probably because I know that Klay is around and he will keep me safe no matter what. Him and my husband will.

The next day, my peaceful sleep was interrupted by a loud bang on the door. Pierce, who was sleeping beside me, immediately sat on the bed and went to the door.

“Sir, Emily is missing.”
