Esther was still holding Felix's hand tightly, afraid that he would disappear if she let go.

Fortunately, Felix was clever and quickly reassured Esther, making her happy, "Mommy, don't worry. I'll stay here with you."

Upon hearing Felix's words, Esther complied with the doctor's examination. The doctor began by thoroughly checking her body and confirming that all her physical measurements were within normal ranges.

She had been malnourished before, but the doctor had given her a lot of nutrition fluids during her hospitalization. Now, she looked much better than when she had just been released from prison.

The doctor came to a conclusion after he finished the examination. "Mr. Bradley, there's nothing wrong with Ms. Quill physically."

Bradley pointed to Esther's head and stated, "There's something wrong with her head."

"Bradley, something is wrong with your head!" Esther retorted fiercely.

For a moment, Bradley could not help but think of their early days of marriage. Back then

    "Selective amnesia?" Bradley said coldly, "Is it an illness?""Strictly speaking, it's not considered an illness," the doctor explained slowly, "In fact, it's the brain's self-defense mechanism. When a person experiences a reality that they cannot accept, the brain instinctively chooses to avoid it."This avoidance manifests as selectively forgetting painful memories. In some cases, the brain may even create false memories due to the extreme pain experienced. I'm not entirely sure what memories Ms. Quill currently has, but if we want to further confirm it, we need to conduct a more detailed psychological examination."Bradley furrowed his eyebrows slightly and asked coldly, "Then tell her the truth.""Mr. Bradley, you can choose to tell her the truth but not right now." The doctor slowly tried to persuade Bradley. "Ms. Quill has just awakened from a coma. If we tell her the truth now, it's highly likely that her memories will become distorted and confused, leading to irreparable co

    The scene before Bradley gave him an indescribable sense of warmth and wholesomeness. He calmly observed Esther. The current Esther was gorgeous, pleasant like a beautiful orchid in a secluded valley, and charming like a rose covered in morning dew.She and the comatose Esther seemed like two different people. The comatose Esther appeared frail and withered as if nearing the end of her life, but right now, she seemed to have been infused with boundless vitality, radiating the unique charm of her age."Then I'll arrange for a doctor to examine you now," said Bradley.All Esther could see was Felix's adorable face. She raised her eyebrows and readily responded, "I'll listen to my son.""Mommy, be a good girl!" Felix spoke to her like he was coaxing a child, gently stroking Esther's head.Bradley was rendered speechless.With Bradley's arrangements, a psychologist promptly conducted a psychological health assessment for Esther.When Clark received a call from Felix informing him th

    Clark said, "Mr. Bradley, I'd like to take care of Esther if she does have selective amnesia." Upon hearing that, Felix volunteered as well. "I can do it too."Clark reached out and gently stroked Felix's head, saying in a warm voice, "Mr. Felix, before you take care of someone else, you need to take care of yourself.""I..." Felix paused for a moment, then softly said, "I think I can leave the hospital now too."Clark casually suggested, "Esther is Ms. Anstey's sister. I think she'll be happy knowing that Esther has woken up. How about discussing with Ms. Anstey to bring Esther back to the estate? I believe that her memory will slowly recover once she's in a familiar environment."Bradley rubbed his slightly throbbing temples with his long fingers as he said, "Let's wait for the results of the psychological evaluation."Clark agreed. "Alright, we'll follow the doctor's advice."The waiting time felt long and difficult.Felix's little face was filled with worries. When the nur

    "This is the psychological evaluation I've done on Ms. Quill just now."The psychologist slid a thick stack of information to Bradley.Bradley took the document and went through it carefully, asking seriously, "What do these answers mean?""Ms. Quill's psychological state is extremely poor." The psychologist explained calmly, "In layman's terms, she's like a fragile porcelain doll now. She looks fine and pretty on the outside, but there are cracks everywhere. If she's taken care of carefully, the porcelain doll can stand there perfectly intact. But the slightest external force will shatter the porcelain doll, never for it to recover again."Clark asked in worry, "Then what should we do now? Do we tell her the truth? Or do we act along?""From the professional viewpoint of a psychologist, I suggest that you don't tell her the truth. With her current capability to accept things, she might possibly resort to something extreme the moment she learns the truth."Clark asked with furrow

    Clark let out an imperceptible sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that Bradley would stubbornly insist on wanting Esther's life."Mr. Warner, rest assured. I won't let her disturb you and Ms. Anstey's wedding," assured Clark.Bradley's lips curled slightly as he coldly said, "Clark, keep her away from Felix."Bradley felt uncomfortable at the thought of Esther waking up and calling Felix her son.Clark also thought about this issue and hurriedly asked the psychologist, "Doctor, why does Esther call Mr. Felix her son after waking up?""From a psychological perspective, it's because something happened to her that she couldn't accept herself, so her brain automatically changed her memories." The psychologist carefully examined Esther's medical records and said, "The pain of losing a daughter is a devastating blow to her, and she may subconsciously perceive Mr. Felix as her deceased child."Clark and Bradley frowned upon hearing that."What if we tell her that Mr. Felix isn't her s

    Bradley coldly got up and left the psychologist's office, returning to Esther's hospital room.The atmosphere inside was lively. The mother and son, Esther and Felix, were playing a childish game of rock-paper-scissors.When Esther caught sight of Bradley's gloomy face, she sweetly called out, "Darling, you're back?"Upon hearing Esther call him "darling", Bradley felt a sense of irony. He casually asked, "What did you just call me?""Darling!" Esther blinked her eyes which were shining like stars, and asked softly, "Why do you seem unhappy?"Bradley sneered coldly, about to explode with anger. However, Clark quickly intervened, interrupting the peculiar atmosphere in the room. He gently asked, "Esther, the doctor said you can be discharged. Shall we pack up and go home now?"Felix was excited upon hearing that and exclaimed, "Mommy, hurry, let's go home!"Bradley pressed his hand on Felix's shoulder and coldly said, "You can't leave the hospital yet.""Daddy!"

    How could his son and that malicious woman resemble a mother-and-son pair?Clark and Felix went quiet. The two of them exchanged a glance, both sighing helplessly in their hearts.Bradley's phone rang."It's me," Bradley answered the call while walking out of the hospital room to the corridor.A lawyer in a suit walked up to Bradley with a briefcase and respectfully greeted him, "Mr. Warner.""Let's talk inside." Bradley pushed open the door of the hospital ward and signaled the lawyer to follow him into the study.He handed the pre-signed divorce agreement from Esther to the lawyer and asked in a deep voice, "With this divorce agreement, I entrust you to handle all the related procedures."The divorce agreement, bearing Esther's personal signature, was meticulously drafted by this lawyer. The terms of the agreement were stringent, ensuring the utmost protection of Bradley's interests."Mr. Warner, according to the regular process, after signing the divorce agreement, both part

    Considering Esther's previous care arrangement during her time at the hospital, Clark requested that the same nursing worker continue to be her caretaker for convenience.Of course, the main reason was that Clark was worried that if they brought in a servant from the estate, the servant might inadvertently reveal the truth, leading to complications in Esther's recovery.Felix followed closely behind Esther, looking at her with pitiful and aggrieved eyes, which made others feel sorry for him.Clark comforted him, saying, "Mr. Felix, once you're feeling better, I'll come to pick you up.""Grandpaw Clark, you have to take good care of Mommy!"Felix was deeply worried. What if that wicked woman found out that his mother had awakened and tried to harm her again? What should he do to stay by his mother's side openly and protect her? He longed to grow up quickly so that he could protect her."Mr. Felix, don't worry. I'll take good care of her," said Clark.Clark and the caretaker packe

    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
