My Husband Wants Me Dead Chapter 230
Pale with fear, Esther was comforted by Felix, who whispered in her ear to calm down. She gestured for silence, fearing that any noise would attract the black-clad men's attention outside the corridor.Esther felt a sense of gratitude that they hadn't run out into the open field earlier. They would have become easy targets in the waist-high wild grass if they had. Worry flickered in Esther's bright eyes as she looked down at the dust on her white shoes.The stairwell they had just escaped from was filled with thick dust. Once the black-clad men upstairs woke up, they would easily track her through the footprints.What should they do now?Esther was at a loss. She had given up hope that Bradley would come to her rescue. It was up to her to find a solution.Bumping her head lightly against the wall, she regretted wasting her time in prison, grieving over the deaths of her children. If she had known what terrors awaited her upon release, she would have focused on studying, reading bo

Clark drove to the location provided by Hoyt and met up with the other two half an hour later. "Recount everything to Clark."The undercover lackey didn't hold back and explained, "I don't have the exact location, but I heard from someone that Shane has people waiting outside the wedding venue. They planned to capture Esther as soon as she appeared."Anxiously, Clark asked, "Do you know where they're taking her?""I don't." The lackey scratched his head. "But I know they failed to get Esther's heart during the last car accident. It's likely they're kidnapping her this time for her heart."Clark felt deep concern. Finding a person without a specific lead in the city would be difficult.Hoyt spoke in a deep voice. "Let me check if I can track her through the surveillance system.""Okay."Hoyt opened his laptop, swiftly typing on the keyboard. He needed to find the surveillance footage from outside the hotel as quickly as possible.Clark and the lackey stared at the screen, fill

Only someone audacious would dare to target Bradley like this! Those who laid a finger on his woman would pay the price!"Look into it."The city was equipped with surveillance cameras, and many fugitives had been captured through the surveillance system.Once they obtained the vehicle's license plate number that took Esther and Felix, even if it was a fake plate, they could continuously track it through the surveillance system. They would find her, even if she went to a place without surveillance or a blind spot. They would search relentlessly, even if they had to dig three feet under!"Mr. Warner, we've found the suspicious vehicle!"-The sound of a rushing wind filled Esther's ears as she ran as fast as she could, not daring to look back.She sprinted with such speed that she hardly felt the pain of glass shards piercing her feet.Her only goal was to draw attention to herself, allowing Felix to escape to safety as quickly as possible.Esther ran forward, but the waist-hig

The two men halted their actions, their already ferocious faces contorting into menacing smiles."You remind us, you damn woman!" One man forcefully tore open Esther's collar, exposing a patch of her skin. "We don't mind dying if it means we get to enjoy you!"He lunged toward Esther, and despite her weakened state, she struggled desperately.Blindly, she grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground and threw it at the man's face, temporarily blinding him. Before Esther could attempt to escape, several other men rushed in and restrained her, pinning her hands and feet down.Now looking down at Esther from a higher position, the temporarily blinded man coldly commanded, "Bring out that little brat."Another man dragged Felix out, his mouth covered with a piece of yellow tape. Felix looked at Esther, surrounded by the menacing men, and fought angrily against his captor's grip."B*tch, behave yourself! If you dare to move again, I'll throw this little brat into the sea to feed the shar

The men in black, after being slapped, did not dare to resist and defended their actions of kidnapping Esther, "It was Mr. Hoyer who ordered us to kidnap her.""And you followed his orders?" the leader exclaimed angrily. "Do you realize the risks we're facing now because of her?""Boss, why don't we just get rid of them once and for all..." One man made a throat-slitting gesture, displaying his viciousness.All the men in black turned their attention to Esther and her son, who instinctively drew closer to each other in fear."No!" The leader glared at Esther and her son, speaking coldly. "We live in a society governed by law now. We can't resort to violence without a second thought. Who gave you the audacity? If you want to end up in prison, don't drag us down with you!"One of the men asked in confusion, "But what we did is illegal, right?""No," the leader replied calmly. "Each of them has signed consent forms for organ donation. Our actions are completely legal."Through the

The man's sudden display of respect heightened Esther's alertness. The sight of the bloody severed hand added to the gravity of the situation."I'll throw this hand into the sea to feed the sharks," the man declared before heading to the deck and disposing of the hand in the boundless sea.Esther heard the sound of the waves, and her temples throbbed. These ruthless individuals were capable of such brutality without hesitation. If they desired her and Felix's lives, it would be an effortless decision for them.Even before the man approached with the severed hand, Esther positioned herself to shield Felix from the view. Witnessing such a scene would be a nightmare for any adult, let alone a child like Felix.The man glanced at the tape on Felix's mouth and the plastic zip tie on his wrists before handing Esther a pair of scissors."Mrs. Warner, please come with me, along with Young Mr. Warner."With the boss' orders, the leader treated Esther differently, acknowledging her importa

After escaping from immediate danger, Felix felt a bit listless.Esther reached out to touch his little face and noticed that he had a slight fever. With limited resources, all she could do for now was use ice cubes to temporarily lower his body temperature, hoping it wouldn't rise again."Felix, go to sleep. Mommy will always be by your side... I'll never lose you again!" Esther gently patted Felix's back as he curled up in fear. It pained her to see him like this.Suddenly, Esther made a bold decision. She decided to have a meal with Felix.If the captors' attitude had changed after the phone call, it meant that they were temporarily safe. These men could take their lives at any moment, so they wouldn't bother with tricks like before."Felix."Felix opened his eyes and weakly replied, "Mommy…""Let's eat a little." Esther placed water and food in front of Felix. "Once we're full, we'll have the energy to escape.""Okay."-As Felix and Esther ate, the other men exchanged gl

As time passed since the kidnapping, Clark and Bradley grew increasingly uneasy. With only two people, Clark's progress was slower, but Bradley had the support of a larger team, allowing him to quickly locate the dock.The van had last been seen at the dock, so they carefully examined the surveillance footage. After analyzing the recordings, they unanimously agreed that the dock was a crucial area to investigate.Bradley turned to the person beside him and asked, "Do we have a map?""Yes," he replied.A map was placed in front of Bradley, who studied the dock's location on the map and then glanced at the sea beyond. His gaze settled on a small island marked on the map."What is this place?" he inquired.The man began explaining, "Mr. Warner, this used to be a prison for dangerous criminals, but it was later developed for tourism—" Bradley cut him off with an urgent tone. "Let's go to the island immediately!""Yes," the man said.Soon, the group boarded a yacht.After half an

Bradley's brazen words made Gabriel raise an eyebrow, and his scrutinizing gaze on Bradley intensified.Unfazed by Gabriel, Bradley calmly stated, "Mr. Sinclair, when I visited Shane recently, he handed me some video footage. It showed Esther being assaulted and abused in prison, with the perpetrators claiming it was my order. I've always dared to own up to my actions. What I've done, I won't shirk from. What I haven't done, I won't admit."Gabriel had seen the videos online. Even though Bradley had obscured the protagonist's face in the footage, he knew it was Esther. He had believed entrusting Esther to Thomas would ensure her safety, only to discover how fate twisted things."Bradley, I'll assume your words are true," Gabriel began. "Then tell me, if those people who assaulted Esther in prison weren't influenced by someone else, who put her in prison? Have you forgotten how you, in your irrational madness, expected a woman carrying your children to pay the price? Or do you believ

When Bradley brought up his grandfather again, he felt utterly unfilial as a grandson."Your grandfather's greatest wish before he passed was for you and Esther to live peacefully and happily. Sadly, all he witnessed was discord and enmity between you as a couple."Gabriel understood better than anyone that Bradley, in his youthful arrogance, felt that everything and everyone should conform to his desires. When Thomas compelled Bradley to marry Esther, almost like an arranged marriage, his rebellious nature surfaced."I've failed my grandfather's hopes," Bradley admitted with a bitter taste in his mouth.During quiet, solitary nights, he revisited memories of the past repeatedly.He hadn't desired that marriage back then. However, since he had promised his grandfather to marry Esther, he should have genuinely treated her as a wife.Despite the subsequent events not aligning with his wishes, he was painfully aware that if he hadn't been arrogant and unwilling to listen to Esther's

Esther wasn't pleasant toward Bradley. If she had evidence, she would gladly send him to prison to experience the joy of life behind bars.Bradley gazed blankly at Esther's stunning face, a hint of indescribable sorrow in his eyes. Those deep eyes resembled a chilly cold spring."Not only do you want to chop off my hand, but you also want my life, right?"Esther gestured a slice across her neck at Bradley with her hand, then turned away to tell Logan, "Let's go. Don't waste time on this.""Okay."With languid steps, Esther walked into the elevator. Once they were inside, the elevator doors shut.Outside the elevator, Bradley watched Esther and Logan like they were two puzzle pieces that matched perfectly. Instantly, he felt an unbearable heartache, as if his heart was being torn apart.He instinctively reached out to steady himself against the wall, observing the numbers on the elevator panel decrease until it stopped at the ground floor.It took a while before Bradley recovere

Throughout the entire night, neither Esther nor Logan had shut their eyes.Feeling their eyes strain, they applied eye drops. It wasn't until Esther noticed someone who shouldn't have been there on the surveillance footage."Logan, take a look at this."Perplexed, Logan asked, "What's going on?""Do you think this person looks like Shirley?"Esther was particularly sharp in discerning a woman's physique. She could immediately tell that the woman being supported by a man due to her intoxication bore a striking resemblance to Shirley."Let me see."Logan zoomed in on the surveillance footage, carefully comparing it with the footage containing Shirley. Physically, the two women indeed looked very similar.There was just one question... How would they confirm if she was Shirley?"Esther, stay here and keep watching the surveillance. I'll retrieve other surveillance footage.""Okay."Logan and Esther divided their tasks. Suspecting that the intoxicated woman might be Shirley, Est

Logan and Esther exchanged a glance. They fixed their intense gazes on Jason's face, unable to discern if he was smirking or provoking them."Mr. Taft, the evidence you seek will come."Jason scoffed. He seemed to transform into a different person as he put his glasses back on."Even if Shirley deceived me, I never wished harm upon her, let alone her death."I can consider your suspicions toward me as part of the investigation, but I hope that once everything is revealed, you can restore my innocence."I've said my piece. As long as Shirley hasn't divorced me, she remains my wife. I am obliged to cooperate in the investigation, and I hope you find her soon."Logan and Esther sensed something amiss with the first confrontation. They didn't say anything untoward until they exited the elevator and looked up at Jason's balcony outside.Jason stood on the balcony, looking at Logan and Esther and waving toward them.Logan and Esther looked at Jason before they turned and got into the

"She blocked me on all forms of contact at that time. I even tried contacting her through my colleagues' phones but found out she had blocked them, too. I thought she might be angry, so we should both calm down."Logan didn't speak and just listened quietly as Jason recounted the events of the case."I was angry that she blocked me. At my age, what's wrong with wanting a child? My parents were pushing for it, and I wondered if this marriage was what I wanted."Shirley is very beautiful. My friends and classmates say I'm lucky to have married her, but they don't know that beauty comes at a price."While my colleagues were buying properties, my wife kept changing bags. Her clothes, skincare products, shoes—everything was designer. To support her lifestyle, I work diligently, even taking extra freelance jobs to afford it."I thought I was a good husband and just wanted a child. What did I do wrong? If she had said that she didn't want a child after marriage in the first place, it wou

Gabriel took a long look at Esther, realizing more than anyone that Esther seemed to be heading toward a different extreme now. He wasn't certain if this shift in Esther's demeanor was good or bad.However, one thing was clear to him—the intersection of Esther and Bradley's lives resembled two lines crossing. After intersecting, they would drift further apart."Esther, you can investigate Bradley's criminal evidence. I won't object to that," Gabriel said with a stern face, emphasizing, "But ensure you complete your tasks on time and with quality.""Grandpa Gabriel, rest assured, I won't neglect my work."Gabriel nodded. "Go on then.""Alright." Esther stepped out of the office and approached Logan. "We can set off now.""Okay."Logan didn't inquire about Esther's conversation with Gabriel. Although they pretended to be engaged, Logan maintained a respectful distance from Esther. He wouldn't interfere much in her matters. However, he was aware that if she needed his help, he woul

Gabriel stated, "According to her husband, they argued before she went missing. He assumed she had returned to her parents' home and didn't inquire further since they often had cold spells for ten days to half a month. Their relatives and friends can testify to this."However, the cold spell extended to a month this time, which alarmed him. When he called her parents, they told him his wife never went home."Esther knew that the husband was often the first suspect when the wife went missing in cases like this."The wife bought a high-speed train ticket to her parents' home but didn't take the train back. The police traced her taking a ride-hailing car, and the driver claimed to have dropped her off on the street. The dashcam recording is proof. However, after that point, there's a blind spot in the surveillance footage. Usually, surveillance is kept for a certain period and gets overwritten after that."Logan asked, "What about the investigation on the missing woman's husband?""T

Esther rose, fixating on the distant scenery with clear eyes. "As long as he commits a crime, he'll leave traces."Logan was on the verge of speaking but was interrupted by the sudden ring of his phone."Hello, Mr. Sinclair."Gabriel's voice sounded grave. "There's a new lead.""Alright, we'll be right there."Logan stood up, turning to Esther. "We'll meet at the locker room entrance in ten minutes.""Is there a new development?""Yes."For most girls, ten minutes might not suffice even for basic grooming. For Esther, it was just right. The only issue was her long hair. Time was too short, and she lacked the opportunity to blow-dry it. Her damp hair draped over her shoulders, slightly soaking her T-shirt.Logan kept his eyes on the road. "I'll drive. You can use a towel to dry your hair.""Okay."As Logan drove, Esther sat in the car, patting her hair dry with a towel. Her hair was thick, posing a challenge to dry with just a towel.Nevertheless, Esther refrained from openi
