Hubby 471
Chapter 471 Ken and Patrick Die Together?
Zev had been away for nearly two weeks. Initially, he was still reachable, but as time passed, it became harder to contact him due to his mission.
Cecil regained consciousness in a hospital, and Kelly visited him. The first thing he asked was whether Zev had died.
Kelly found Cecil's way of speaking rather unpleasant, so after leaving his meal, she walked away without a word.
Cecil grinned as he offered an apology, but Kelly paid him no attention.
She wasn't truly upset with him. Cecil had grown up as an orphan and had mastered the art of masking his pain with a façade.
Yet deep inside, he feared that Kelly might be the same, someone who put on a brave front.
More than anything, he worried that if Zev encountered any danger during his mission, Kelly wouldn't be able to bear it.
That's why, whenever she visited, even though he knew it would irritate her, he would still jokingly ask, "Is Zev dead?"
His words were always laced with sharpness and sarcasm, a defense method he had developed... a way to shield himself from pain.
By bracing for the worst beforehand, he believed he could keep his emotions in check when the tragedy actually occurred.
Throughout his time at Solmaris, he had watched teammates die right before his eyes, yet he couldn't shed a single tear. He had seen strangers die, yet no sorrow surfaced in him, so he had learned to mask everything behind cutting words and a careless demeanor.
"Kelly, if Zev dies, why don't you marry me instead?" Cecil quipped with a smirk when she brought him another meal.
Kelly stood by the window, her eyes reddened as she glared at him. She was obviously furious.
Cecil froze, realizing that he had probably taken the joke too far this time.
He wanted to say sorry but couldn't bring himself to utter the words, so he simply lowered his head in guilt.
It was a matter of life and death. Only he truly understood how dangerous this mission was, If Zev hadn't stopped Patrick in Seaville and let him flee to another region-or worse, escape across the border, the entire mission would have been ruined.
dib "Get some rest," Kelly said instead of scolding him. Checking the time, she added, "Zev is going to be fine. No one's going to die. Stop worrying

Cecil was taken aback. He hadn't expected her to not only overlook his harsh words but also try to ease his anxiety.
Kelly seemed to realize that beneath his sharp tongue, he wasn't trying to be cruel, he was just more afraid than anyone else of this mission ending in failure.

They had given their all, making countless sacrifices over the years, and no one was willing to accept die for
"Cecil," Kelly called his name as she reached the doorway, then turned back with a gentle smile. Have you ever heard this saying? Surviving a great disaster brings future blessings. Whether Patrick is captured or not your role in this is finished. You don't need to stay so on edge, just relax. Seaville is a beautiful city. Once you're discharged, Zev and I will take you for a walk by the seaside."
Cecil sat motionless on the hospital bed, silently watching Kelly as she spoke, then continued to watch as she walked away.
He let out a bitter laugh, turned his head aside, and wiped at his damp eyes. I'm not crying...
Over the years, he had hardly shed any tears.
He told himself he didn't care about Zev. In fact, if Zev died, that might be even better...
Yet as he lay there, unable to shake off his thoughts, he found himself picking up his phone, dialing repeatedly to get updates on the mission with the higher-ups, to find out if there had been any casualties.
But the plan was confidential, and no one would tell him anything. They only gave him vague reassurances to rest and recover, praising him for a job well done, and telling him that his mission was over.
At Kelly's residence.
After arriving back, Kelly lay on the sofa.
Nancy hurried inside, her face full of worry as she looked at Kelly. "Mrs. Kelly, my son... he's back!"
She had never expected that Kelly and her team would actually succeed in bringing him back.
"I'm glad to hear that," Kelly exhaled, feeling relieved.
Meanwhile, Patrick had been planning to escape overseas. Once he escaped, those he had deceived would have little chance of returning, especially Nancy's son. If he remained in that place, Patrick would surely take advantage of Nancy again.
To prevent this, Cecil ordered his men to secretly release Nancy's son.
"You don't have to worry. Your son will be safe once he returns to Drakonia. The police are hunting down Patrick. Most of his men have already run off to Stoneville. The police and military there will join forces to capture him. He won't get away," Kelly assured Nancy.
"Mrs. Kelly, I'm sorry." Nancy's eyes turned red. After hesitating for a long time, she finally spoke, "There's something I haven't told you. Patrick... he might not have left Seaville yet."
Kelly's expression froze. "What are you saying?"
it was
ick's
"That day, I saw a man who looked exactly like him entering the Wagner Residence. At first, I assur Mr. Patrick. It wasn't until he went inside that I realized
it wasn't him at all. That man entered Mr.. study. I brushed it aside at first. But
then I thought... what if, when Mr. Patrick left with his people, it wasn't actually him who left, but someone else posing as him?" Nancy's voice was shaky as she tried to explain.

A chill ran down Kelly's spine.
- Pesits
Did Patrick plant a double to throw the police off? He had his men take the double and leave, drawing the police's attention away from Scaville, while he slipped out of the city when they least expected it, crossing the border to escape the country.
Without a second thought, Kelly grabbed her phone in a panic.
If Patrick was still in Scaville, he wouldn't have used the airport. It was too risky. That left only one way out. It had to be by sea.noveldrama
He had to be at the docks.
Seaville's biggest shipping port was at Sunken Bay.
Kelly quickly dialed Zev's number. No response. She tried calling the lead officer in charge of the operation, but they didn't pick up either.
Then she called Gary. Unable to reach Gary, Kelly could only call Ken. She said urgently, "Ken, Nancy said she saw someone who looked just like Patrick at the Wagner Residence that day. Could Patrick have tricked us? What if he never left and is still hiding in Seaville? Could he be planning to escape Drakonia through Sunken Bay docks?"
Ken's voice remained steady. "I'll notify the authorities and check it out myself. Stay where you are and wait for my update."
Kelly hesitated but eventually agreed. She sank back onto the sofa, restless and uneasy.
Zev and his team might have been played.
That evening, Zev's team reported that they had captured Patrick, but it turned out to be his double.
Kelly shared with Zev what Nancy had observed, explaining that Ken had taken
the Seaville police to the docks, and there had been no updates since.
Zev quickly ended the call and rushed to Sunken Bay with his team.
Unfortunately, they were too late.
A huge explosion rocked the docks as numerous containers packed with dangerous and explosive goods collided, causing numerous deaths, injuries, and people to go missing.
Ken had located Patrick at the dock, and during their confrontation, an explosion went off, engulfing them both in the blast.
It's unclear whether Patrick and Ken/survived, as neither has been seen or found, dead or alive.
The explosion was so powerful that it tore apart the entire large cargo ship. Countless lives we lost, their remains scattered beyond recognition.
Let alone Ken and Patrick.
When Gary arrived with Zev, firefighters were working to extinguish the flames, handle the remaining explosives, and identify the bodies.

Gary was completely overwhelmed, his head pounding and his legs too heavy to
lift.
If he had known... he should have just locked Ken in the house before he left.
Ken had always been detached from life and death, and he sacrificed his own life to capture Patrick.
"I'm sorry... we couldn't prevent Mr. Morris. He discovered that Patrick had used a double and escaped to the cargo port. When we arrived, we tried to warn him not to act impulsively. But Patrick attempted to flee, and Mr. Morris charged forward, and there was a bomb on the ship," the police regretfully informed Gary that both Patrick and Ken were caught at the center of the explosion.
There was no chance of survival, for sure.
