My Husband Wants Me Dead Chapter 448
Alice gracefully wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin and stood up. She looked at Esther, who was holding the USB, and said, "Ms. Quill, why waste your wonderful life on a man? Cast away the unworthy. Live your own life.""You're right," Esther said.Alice blew Esther a kiss and flashed her a coquettish glance. "Good luck."Esther personally escorted Alice to her car.Esther borrowed a laptop from one of the servants and inserted the USB. As soon as she opened the drive, a video file popped up. It was the footage that had been used to convict her in court years ago, showing 'her' disconnecting Thomas' oxygen mask.The video initially played at normal speed. It was noticeably slowed down on the second viewing, particularly at critical moments. Although Esther had previously observed problems with the video, a sense of deep gratitude welled in her as she saw Alice's version.Alice's motivations or intentions in obtaining the video were beside the point. What mattered was th

Steffan shot a cold glance at Xara before smoothly heading to the dining table. There, he casually flipped through the newspaper and sipped his coffee.Leaning close to Esther's ear, Xara muttered, "Esther, I swear I want to knock his head off."Esther was momentarily speechless."But never mind, I'm just venting," Xara sighed, rubbing her face in frustration. "I've been up all night, and now I've decided to let it go. I suppose I'm willing to endure this mad dog's antics again if it means saving Jacob."Esther was left speechless once more.With her chin resting on her hand, Xara's gaze fixed on Steffan in the distance. She whispered, "I hate to admit it, but this mad dog does have some looks. Technically, it's not a total loss.""Steffan might be able to hear you," Esther cautioned.Xara shrugged off the concern. "Let him hear. Without Jacob, I wouldn't give him a second thought."As Jacob's mother, she couldn't simply watch him stumble into danger. She needed Jacob to contin

"Uncle Jasper."Felix approached Jasper with a cute and charming greeting. Esther had informed Felix on the plane that Jasper's team had rescued him when he fell into the sea."You're quite the good boy, Felix," Jasper praised, placing a hat on Felix's head. He then cautioned Esther, "Considering your ongoing divorce proceedings with Bradley, your public exposure has increased. Felix is still young, so limiting his public appearances is best.""Jasper, you are always so considerate," Esther said."Felix, come here and give me a hug."Felix happily complied, stretching out his arms and embracing Jasper, who held him with care and affection."Esther, are you heading directly to the Warner Group?"Esther's porcelain-white face exuded a detached coolness, her gaze unwavering as she spoke. "Jasper, I've conducted the DNA test three times, and each time, it has indicated that Pixie is not my daughter. To erase any uncertainty, I collected a sample from Pixie. I intend to proceed with

As soon as everyone laid eyes on Esther, an impulse to kneel before her surged within them. She was as beautiful as a fairy who descended to the mortal realm. Even just a fleeting glance felt like a desecration of the celestial being.Thus, when Bradley bellowed, they frowned and gave him disapproving looks.Everyone there was captivated by Esther's presence. Seeing her unmatched beauty, they all thought she could do no wrong. If she did anything wrong, they assumed she had no choice.Esther's high heels made a crisp sound on the marble floor as she walked toward Bradley.It was only then that Esther saw Bradley's white hair. Disdain appeared in her eyes, accentuating the charm of the small red mole below her eye."Bradley, you seem quite disappointed seeing that I'm not dead?"Bradley's icy gaze swept the surroundings. The employees who had been watching instantly dispersed like a receding tide."Esther, you've picked up quite a few tricks after spending five years in prison!"

Bradley tightly gripped Esther's neck and forcefully pressed his lips against hers.His heart numbed with pain after learning of Esther's leap into the sea. He repeated to himself that she couldn't be dead—there was no way.However, Bradley's panic surged when Jasper held an almost absurd funeral for Esther. Fear enveloped him, afraid that her death had indeed become a reality.Even after the confirmation of her survival, disbelief lingered.Only through the act of passionately kissing Esther, without reservations, did he finally verify she was alive.Bradley's powerful kiss conveyed dominance and possessiveness.Esther bit his tongue, blood mingling between their lips, yet Bradley held on. In a swift movement, she kicked him, forcing his grip on her wrist to loosen."Ms. Quill."The bodyguards quickly moved forward to shield Esther. The speed at which Esther and Bradley had acted earlier had been too fast for them to react properly.Esther casually retrieved a pack of tissues

Bradley stood by the elevator entrance, fixating his gaze on the firmly sealed doors. An aura of isolation enveloped him. His fists clenched, and he stood unmoving for an extended period, resembling a lifeless stone statue.After a moment, a sinister smirk crept onto his face. He wiped away a trickle of blood from his mouth with the back of his hand.'Very well, Esther, very well. Let's see how long the Quills can shield you. And divorce? Not a chance,' he thought.-As the elevator doors closed, Esther's tense nerves eased slightly.The bodyguards apologized for their inability to react faster."Ms. Quill, we're sorry for not acting more swiftly."Esther brushed her hair aside and raised an indifferent eyebrow. "It's not your fault. No one could predict a sudden threat."Her rationality intensified their regret. They were hired to safeguard Esther from Bradley's aggression. The idea that the charming Bradley possessed such a sinister side shocked them.-After leaving the Wa

Esther expressed her concerns directly.[This piece of evidence is extremely crucial, and I won't tell you about it for now.][If Bradley's unwilling to divorce me, he'll definitely try to bribe people around you to obtain the evidence we currently have. But those pieces of evidence are not important. What matters is what I have in my possession.]Tanya: [Ms. Quill, I understand.]Seeing that Esther was unwilling to reveal the evidence to her and understanding her concerns, she did not press further.-Esther used to live in another person's house and never really felt like it was her home. Now, she sat in a chair and looked at the faraway buildings, feeling a little nervous. She wondered what the results of the new DNA test Jasper had arranged would reveal.Just then, Esther's phone rang, interrupting her thoughts."Esther, the DNA test is in progress. I requested the expedited version, and the results will be available within 24 hours."Esther's tone was gentle as she replie

Jasper's words brought some comfort to Esther. She ran her fingers gently through Felix's hair and asked hesitantly, "When's the right time to tell everyone that Felix is alive?""I believe it's wise to reveal it during the divorce trial. If we share the news too soon, Bradley might use Felix's safety to pressure you into compromising," Jasper explained, echoing Esther's concerns.Esther sighed, worried about exactly that. She nodded and said, "Then, for now, let's keep Felix's presence a secret.""Don't stress. The court date is already set. Just enjoy your time with Felix and trust the lawyer. Ms. Hill is a pro at handling divorces, and her success rate is very high."Jasper's calming words eased Esther's anxiety.Engrossed in finishing his plate of shrimp balls, Felix hadn't spoken during this conversation.After lunch, Jasper returned to his company.Having taken a commercial flight back this time, Esther and Felix felt a bit tired compared to their usual private jet travels

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
