My Husband Wants Me Dead Chapter 457
The bodyguards hurried forward, trying to halt Bradley's attack on Esther. But Bradley had a firm grip on Esther's throat, using her as a shield.Worried about Esther's safety, the bodyguards hesitated. They were afraid of making things worse.Unexpectedly, when Bradley seized her throat, Esther burst into defiant laughter."Bradley, is violence all you know?"Her words seemed to provoke Bradley, and he tightened his grip.The elevator "dinged," and Felix, dressed in yellow duck-printed pajamas, spotted Bradley choking Esther from a distance. He dashed like a cannonball, fiercely kicking and hitting Bradley."Let Mommy go!"Hearing Felix's voice, Bradley instinctively released Esther and grabbed Felix's collar. He asked, "You're Felix?"Esther hadn't anticipated Bradley and Felix would meet like that."Bradley, can't you see how upset Felix is?"Felix's face turned red, and he glared at Bradley. "You can't bully Mommy!""Brat!" Bradley's mocking gaze turned to Esther. "Impre

Felix looked at the tear-stricken Esther and comforted her. "Mommy, I'm really not in pain."Esther's tears fell into the crimson pool of blood. She gently touched Felix's face, her heart sinking into an abyss of despair. She had anticipated all of Bradley's actions, but she had not expected Felix to resist him by jumping out of the car."Felix, I'm sorry. It's all Mommy's fault."Felix let out a pained grunt and said, "Mommy, it's not your fault. I'm really happy to be your son."Esther cradled Felix's small face in anguish, unable to scold him for his boldness. "Felix, what's the one thing you really want to do right now?"Esther was afraid that Felix might fall asleep, so she had to ensure his consciousness remained clear until the ambulance arrived.Felix innocently said, "I want to wipe away Mommy's tears."He wanted to lift his hand, but the pain was too much. He could not even lift it.Esther wiped away her tears hurriedly, saying, "Mommy wiped away her tears herself."

Bradley narrowed his brows angrily. He grabbed a security guard's arm and menacingly demanded, "What are you talking about?""Mr. Warner, your son's life is at stake, and you're here getting angry with us?""You've driven a young lady to the point of jumping into the sea to prove her innocence.""Your own son would rather jump out of a car than leave with you! It's evident how much of a failure you are as a person..."Bradley's mind went blank. He looked at the security guards around him, and then his gaze fell on the pool of blood on the ground. Suddenly, he pushed the security guards aside and staggered to his sports car.He opened the car door and pressed the gas pedal, but all he saw was a pool of red blood. His legs shook with fear.He took a deep breath, steadied himself, and pressed the accelerator. The car's engine roared in the underground garage.The security guards watched as Bradley drove his fancy sports car and exchanged hushed whispers."How can there be such a m

With all that said, Esther was just too weak. She had falsely assumed that even if Bradley took Felix, even if he used Felix to threaten her, she wouldn't be scared as long as she resisted his demands.Despite Esther's thoughts, she never expected Felix to leap out of the car to prevent her from worrying."Felix, let Mommy tell you something." Esther's eyes were filled with glistening tears. Choking up, she said, "You are Mommy's precious gift from heaven. Mommy loves you the most—more than anything.""Mommy, I love you the most, most, most, too."The ambulance arrived at the hospital, and medical staff swarmed toward them.Esther gripped Felix's hand and sent him to the entrance of the operating room."Felix, Mommy will be waiting for you outside the operating room.""Okay."Esther's legs gave in as the operating room doors closed firmly, and she crumbled onto the chilly floor. She lost all control, clutching her mouth, and let out anguished cries.The doctors and nurses were

A bodyguard helped Esther sit on a nearby chair while another bodyguard promptly handed her a water bottle.Esther glanced at the bottle but gently shook her head. Thirst wasn't her concern. Drinking didn't cross her mind. Her focus rested on waiting for Felix near the operating room's entrance.This time, Felix's injury was an accident. Esther even blamed herself, believing his accident wouldn't have happened had she not brought him back to the country.Such thoughts brought uncontrollable tears down her cheeks.The bodyguards shared her guilt. Their role was safeguarding Esther, yet she often faced peril.Jasper sat on a bench across from Esther, engrossed in his phone. He searched for possible consequences of car jumping and the opinions of experts in that field."Esther, I just searched online. There's a renowned expert who excels at treating injuries like Felix's. How about I contact this expert now?"Esther replied hoarsely, "Please do."Jasper made a call to the expert.

After the two female bodyguards left, new male bodyguards took their places.Jasper stood on the stairs, his expression grim as he observed the two female bodyguards. He sternly questioned them, "Is this the level of your performance?""Mr. Searle, the incident with Mr. Felix jumping out of the car was a complete accident—"Before she could finish her explanation, Jasper slapped her."With the situation turning out like this, you still find it appropriate to argue? And what about the injury on Esther's neck? Are you suggesting she harmed herself out of boredom?"The other bodyguard replied softly, "Mr. Searle, Mr. Warner caused the injury on Ms. Quill's neck.""This is my final warning to you. I hired you to ensure Esther's safety. I don't want such incidents to happen again. If Bradley dares to do anything to Esther again, let him step over your bodies before he gets to do it. Do you understand?""Yes, Mr. Searle," they said in unison.Jasper dropped his polite and sophisticat

Jasper stared challengingly at Bradley's furious expression. He spoke calmly but provocatively, aiming to incite Bradley. "Bradley, soon, Esther won't be yours anymore!"During the trip to the hospital, Bradley's main concern had been Felix. He had gone through numerous challenges to locate the hospital where Felix was being treated. As he reached the entrance of the operating room, he overheard Jasper and Esther talking.An instant feeling of betrayal overwhelmed his rationality. He wanted to teach Jasper a lesson, to show him that even in death, Esther must be recognized as Bradley Warner's wife.Esther watched coldly as Bradley, who showed no concern for Felix, engaged in a pointless power struggle with Jasper. Her heart grew cold.She had once believed that even if Bradley didn't love her, he would care sincerely for Felix. Now, she understood that Bradley was completely heartless. He couldn't love—he had no feelings."Bradley, Felix's life is at stake now. I don't want you he

Bradley felt like a hole had been carved into his heart, and a chilling wind blew through. He curled up in pain, his eyes showing hopelessness.Jasper was right. It was his fault. He had gotten so angry about Esther and Felix's fake death that he had impulsively taken Felix away. He had just wanted Esther to admit her mistake, be his wife, and never talk of divorce.Still, he had forgotten to buckle Felix's seatbelt for safety. His action had scared Felix, causing him to jump out of the car. Worse, Bradley hadn't noticed Felix was gone for a long time.Regret flooded Bradley. He tried to grab the railing, but his legs gave way. Struggling to stand, he lost his vision and tumbled down the stairs.-Esther stood outside the operating room, her gaze fixed anxiously on the door. Jasper attempted to comfort her, saying, "Esther, don't be so worried."Esther didn't respond. Who could really fathom her emotions? The child in there was her flesh and blood, yet it was unknown whether he w

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
My Husband Wants Me Dead Chapter 982
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
