That was because Felix was now a child under his mother's protection.

"Don't worry, my good boy. You and Mommy are safe now," Esther assured Felix.

Esther and Felix enjoyed breakfast on the terrace. Despite being on a secluded island, they had plenty of breakfast options.

Considering Felix's weakened condition, Esther made sure he didn't eat too much, fearing it could cause digestive problems. "Felix, let's have smaller meals more frequently for now."

Felix obediently nodded. "Okay, Mommy."

With eyes full of love, Esther affectionately stroked Felix's face and asked, "Should I have the doctor check on you?"

"Okay."

After the doctor examined Felix and confirmed that he was weak but otherwise fine, he kindly asked, "Did you wake up because your mother arrived, Mr. Felix?"

Felix nodded proudly, his small face beaming. "Yes."

"Now that Mr. Felix is awake, I suggest engaging in more physical activities to strengthen his immunity," the doctor said.

Following the doctor's advice, Es

    There was a sense of cold detachment on Esther's porcelain face as she heard Felix's question. They sat side by side on the rocks by the sea, holding hands. The crashing waves occasionally splashed onto them, creating a warm and beautiful silhouette of a mother and son leaning on each other."Felix, I won't go back to him anymore."Felix asked softly, his voice tender, "Why don't you want to go back to Daddy, Mommy?""Because Mommy isn't happy with him," Esther replied.Esther held Felix's hand, feeling somewhat guilty. She knew that Bradley was Felix's father and that he might want to go back to him. However, she no longer desired to return to Bradley's side, even for Felix's sake."Mommy, are you really not happy when you're with Daddy?" Felix asked, puzzled.Esther looked into Felix's pure eyes and honestly expressed her feelings, "Yes, Mommy isn't happy with him."But if you want to go back to him, I'll arrange for someone to take you, but Mommy won't go back."Felix tilted

    "Mommy, it hurts," Felix whined sweetly.At that moment, Esther realized she was tightly gripping Felix's hand. She also deeply understood the fear and unease that Bradley had brought upon her."I'm sorry. Mommy didn't mean to." As Esther quickly contemplated how to confront Bradley, the housekeeper approached them."Ms. Quill, Mr. Quill is here."'Mr. Quill?' Esther was confused. It took her a moment to realize that it was Oliver Quill, as Jasper had mentioned."I'm going back now."A helicopter landed on the island's helipad, and Oliver, poised and graceful, stepped off. He was no longer young, belonging to the middle-aged category. With his age came countless ups and downs, and the glory of his youth had faded away. He was no longer sharp-edged or filled with triumph and ego. He stood like a quiet tree as if all the storms in the world were simply experiences in his life.Oliver looked at Esther, who was walking toward him from a distance. Her features bore no resemblance to

    Esther believed that the Quills, being a prominent and influential family, would require a DNA test to acknowledge her as part of their lineage."No need for a DNA test," Oliver said with a smile, looking at Esther. "You're Faye's daughter, which means you're part of the Quills.""But..." Esther hesitated, thinking that it wouldn't feel legitimate or official without a DNA test."I am currently the head of the Quills. Nobody would dare question anyone I bring into the family," Oliver reassured calmly. "You are under the protection of the Quills. From now on, you can do whatever you want. You don't have to fear Bradley Warner and don't need to fake your death...""But I'm afraid of causing trouble for the Quills," Esther expressed her concerns about the potential trouble Bradley might bring.Oliver's calm eyes resembled clear springs as he looked at Esther. With a light smile, he said, "Esther, the Quills have the ability to protect you."The more unconditionally Oliver protected

    "I don't want anything to do with Bradley anymore," Esther stated firmly.Considering the information he had gathered earlier, Oliver asked Esther in a serious tone, "Esther, did you remove Mr. Thomas' oxygen mask?""Absolutely not!" Esther quickly denied it. She had no intention of hiding anything from Oliver and grimaced as she recounted the events that had taken place."It was Liliane who personally removed Grandpa Thomas' oxygen mask. I arrived just in time to witness it and attempted to put it back on, but then the doctor entered the room and caught me. Uncle Oliver, I swear as a mother that I never harmed Grandpa Thomas."Upon hearing Esther's explanation, Oliver affirmed, "I believe you."That video had portrayed Esther as a despicable woman. Everyone deemed her ungrateful and believed she had committed a heinous act. Her explanations were dismissed as mere arguments, and no one believed in her innocence.Esther's eyes welled up with tears as she asked hesitantly. "Uncle O

    Esther reached out and embraced Felix, speaking softly. "Felix, we're going abroad to find Pixie now.""Really?" Felix's eyes glittered as he looked at Esther."Absolutely." Esther held Felix's hand firmly and said seriously, "You still have a choice, Felix. If you want to go back to your father, Uncle Oliver will arrange it. But if you want to come with me, you must promise not to tell your Daddy where we're going. Take your time to think about it before we leave."After Esther finished speaking, Felix bravely declared, "Mommy, I want to find Pixie with you!""Are you certain?" Esther asked.Felix nodded firmly. "I'm certain."Esther held Felix's hand tightly and informed Oliver, "Uncle Oliver, we can leave now.""Then let's get on the helicopter."Esther and Felix didn't have much to pack as guests on the island. They simply boarded Oliver's helicopter and departed from the island.During the helicopter ride, Oliver revealed their destination: Macatus."Esther, I have every

    "It's... the Quills of Capitus."Bradley raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Quills? What Quills of Capitus?"He had no grudges or disputes with the Quills of Capitus, so why were they targeting him?"According to my sources, our projects are facing so many obstacles because the Quills of Capitus are behind it!" an executive said.Bradley furrowed his brow, his sharp gaze fixed on the floor-to-ceiling window of his office. There was a significant distance between him and the Quills. They had never crossed paths, so why would they come after him?"Who is the current head of the Quills?" Bradley asked.The executives and managers exchanged glances.Bradley missed the seamless cooperation he had with Cole. Bradley wouldn't have had to deal with these incompetent people if Cole hadn't been in the accident. It showed the importance of having a competent CEO assistant."I'll look into it."The managers took out their phones and began searching for the current head of the Quills.Amids

    Upon hearing Bradley's question, Oliver chuckled lightly, like a gentle breeze in the mountains.Bradley became even more convinced that Oliver had hidden Esther. He had no idea when Esther had formed a connection with the Quills. Why was Jasper collaborating with Oliver in this elaborate charade of Esther's death?Bradley knew he wanted Esther to return to him obediently despite his suspicions."Mr. Warner, call me again when you've calmed down," Oliver decisively said before hanging up.Bradley understood what Oliver meant. He had been privileged since birth, always in the spotlight and accustomed to getting his way. His life had been smooth sailing, never having to submit or admit defeat.Bradley looked at his phone screen as the call had abruptly ended. This time, he didn't call back but placed the phone down and coldly addressed the others in the office, "Bring me all the project files."The executives replied, "Yes, Mr. Warner."Soon after, the project files were handed to

    Scott secretly wished for someone like Liliane, with her morals and personality, to meet her demise. However, being a doctor, it was his duty to save lives, regardless of whether the person was good or bad. Discrimination had no place in the eyes of doctors. Unfortunately, Liliane had grown weaker after undergoing several resuscitations. She sat weakly against the bedframe, watching television. For some reason, she felt a sense of satisfaction upon learning about Esther's funeral.The moment Esther arrived at the Ansteys, she became Liliane's enemy. Esther's exceptional physique and studious nature made her shine like the sun, overshadowing others. As a result, Liliane gradually grew to despise her.However, upon discovering that Esther had taken her own life by throwing herself into the sea, all those negative emotions vanished."You deceived me, Liliane... Why?" Liam expressed his unhappiness, blaming himself for his naivety and misjudgment of character.'How could she pretend

    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
