Upon hearing Jasper's words, surprise and confusion appeared on Esther's face.

"Now?" Esther asked.

Jasper patiently explained, "Yes, now. Do you think Bradley would agree to the surgery if he knew Mandy's liver was offered as a condition for saving you?"

Esther realized the gravity of Jasper's words.

"So, we need to do the surgery while Bradley is still unconscious?" she asked.

"Yes," Jasper confirmed.

Esther said, "I'll leave it to you, Jasper."

"Don't worry, Esther. I'll take care of Bradley. As for Chadwick, you don't need to worry about him either. When the time is right, we'll..."

Jasper didn't finish his sentence, but Esther understood. "Alright."

With Esther present, Jasper called Kevin and explained Bradley's situation over the phone, withholding no information.

After listening to Jasper's explanation, Kevin panicked and shouted, "Jasper! Are you out of your mind? You actually agreed to Chadwick's threat."

A hint of anger crossed Jasper's face. "Kevin, if you have a

    Mandy couldn't donate her liver due to her physical condition. Who would be the donor, then?For a moment, Mandy entertained a bizarre thought as she observed the doctors preparing for the surgery. She was tempted to ask but then remembered X had his own considerations. She couldn't inquire now, so she would have to investigate later."Should I just lie down here?" Mandy asked."Yes," they replied.Soon, she was wheeled into the operating room. Her eyes grew heavy as she stared at the bright surgical lights, and she drifted off to sleep.-Meanwhile, in another hospital room.Kevin escorted Bradley to the operating room.-Esther sighed in relief as she was monitoring Bradley's progress through Jasper's live video feed."Ms. Quill, here's your liver donation consent form. Please review and sign it if you agree.""Mine?" Esther hesitated. "Am I also having surgery today?""Ms. Pendleton arranged it. She mentioned that if you don't honor your promise to donate your liver, she

    Kevin was not an expert in liver diseases, but he felt great relief when he saw a medical case labeled "Mandy Pendleton" heading into the operating room. Doctors were removing Bradley's dying liver to transplant Mandy's healthy one into him.Now that the liver transplant was successfully completed, Bradley would recover as long as there were no rejection issues with Mandy's liver.Kevin didn't continue watching the surgery. He trusted the hospital's medical expertise. With a pleased expression, he left the operating room and shared the good news with Jasper, who had been waiting outside."Jasper, Bradley's surgery was a success!"Jasper didn't share the same joy when he heard Kevin's words. Instead, he anxiously asked, "Kevin, given Esther's current health, her liver donation—""How could she donate her liver? Is she crazy?" Kevin snarled, cutting off Jasper."It's too late. Esther is already in the operating room," Jasper said with a pained expression. "Mandy said if Esther didn

    Esther remained under the influence of anesthesia, and she had yet to wake up.Meanwhile, Jasper grew annoyed with the nurses who attempted to flirt with him. He looked for the head nurse, Jordyn Bancroft, and hinted that she should manage her staff.In a room adjacent to Esther's, Mandy slowly opened her eyes, feeling an inexplicable pain as she tried to move. She lifted her clothes and broke into a cold sweat upon seeing the medical gauze covering her source of pain.Wasn't the plan for her to pretend? Why did she have a wound? Could her liver have really been harvested?As this unsettling thought crossed her mind, she messaged X, her hands trembling while typing.Mandy: [Boss, what's going on with this wound?]As someone who had once suffered from heart disease, she understood the potential consequences of organ issues.She would never have willingly donated her liver if they had said to use it. She wasn't as foolish as Esther and would never give up her liver for anyone.X:

    Bradley was not immediately taken back to the hospital room after he got out of the operating room. Instead, he had to be watched for 48 hours before moving to the hospital ward.Knowing that Bradley would be furious if he discovered the secret liver transplant, Kevin stood beside Bradley in sterile clothing. He needed to promptly explain the situation to avoid misunderstandings about Esther's intentions.Bradley slowly opened his eyes, still feeling groggy from anesthesia."Kevin!" Bradley called out through his oxygen mask, his voice full of frustration.Kevin, occupied with work on his phone, jumped at Bradley's angry voice and accidentally dropped his phone."Bradley, you woke up earlier than expected?" Kevin hadn't anticipated Bradley regaining consciousness so soon."Explain." Bradley's voice seethed with anger.Kevin felt like his heart was gripped by an invisible hand. He nervously replied, "You've just had a liver transplant...""Who gave permission..."Kevin's voice

    Kevin didn't worry about Bradley but had concerns for Esther. He went straight to Esther's hospital room.Esther had just woken up. When she saw Kevin, she asked hoarsely, "Jasper, how's he... How's he doing?""Awake!" Kevin replied with frustration. "Esther, are you letting love cloud your judgment? Was what you did worth it for one man?"It would've been fine if Bradley appreciated Esther's kindness, but he didn't. Even as an outsider, Kevin felt for Esther."Kevin, he's ultimately Felix's father."Kevin couldn't bring himself to be harsher with Esther. He sighed. "You're too kind-hearted. Don't worry. His surgery went well, and there haven't been complications so far."It's you who needs to take care of yourself. Stop obsessing over him. Esther, you have to realize that if something happens to you and Bradley marries someone else, Felix might have to call another woman his mother. If he's lucky and gets a kind stepmother, that's fine. But if he gets someone like Liliane, you c

    "Esther!""Esther!"When Esther suddenly fainted from stress, Kevin and Jasper panicked. Kevin called the doctor only after he confirmed she wasn't in a life-threatening condition.After running tests on Esther, the doctor gently reminded them, "Dr. Slade, Mr. Searle, Ms. Quill's mental and physical health can't handle more stress. Avoid emotional ups and downs."Kevin replied, "We'll be careful."Once the doctor left, Kevin asked anxiously, "Jasper, what should we do now?""Let's stick to our plan. You watch over Bradley, and I'll take care of Esther. For now, let's focus on their health."Kevin massaged his temples, deeply troubled.If Esther reacted this way to Chadwick's news, Bradley would likely explode if he saw it."Jasper, I'm leaving Esther to you. Call me immediately if anything happens.""Okay."To shield Esther from more stress, Jasper avoided checking the news until she woke up.When Esther regained consciousness, she looked at Jasper with teary eyes but could

    "Ms. Quill is done with changing her dressing," Jordyn said.Jasper smiled in gratitude and said, "Thank you."Looking at the handsome Jasper, Jordyn suddenly asked, "Mr. Searle, are you looking for a girlfriend?"Jasper was surprised by the abrupt question.Jordyn realized her question had been too sudden, but she couldn't resist asking because Jasper was such an exceptional man."Mr. Searle, if you ever want a girlfriend, consider me!" Jordyn smiled. "I'm quite fond of you."A man like Jasper, outstanding, graceful, and of high status, was hard for any woman to resist."Are you serious, Ms. Bancroft?" Jasper asked, puzzled.Jordyn nodded and said sincerely, "Absolutely."In fact, many women trying to catch Jasper's eye secretly hoped to replace Esther in his heart, thinking it would be a step toward a successful life."I will seriously consider your proposal," Jasper replied formally and cautiously, as was his way with confessions."Thank you, Mr. Searle. I won't be a burd

    Esther's heart ached deeply from Bradley's hurtful words. She had done everything for him without expecting anything in return. Yet, his scornful insults still caused her immense pain."Bradley! Are you even human? How can you say such things to Esther?" Jasper barked."Esther might be a treasure in your eyes, but she's just a stalk of weed to me," Bradley replied coldly, his eyes filled with disdain. "If you're here to check if I'm dead or alive, thanks to Esther, I'm alive! Are you satisfied now? You can leave."Applause echoed crisply from the hospital room's doorway. Chadwick leaned casually against the door frame, clapping his hands and enjoying the scene.His presence immediately caught everyone's attention.When Bradley saw Chadwick, a fiery fury ignited in his dark eyes. "Pendleton…"Esther's heart tightened.Chadwick seemed pleased with Esther's reaction. He walked into the room and casually tossed an invitation to Bradley."Warner, please do me the honor," Chadwick sa

    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
