Bradley stared at Gavin. His sense of justice and sensibility engaged in a final internal struggle. Half a minute later, he sat back opposite Gavin.

Gavin calmly brewed another cup of tea for Bradley. Instead of calming Bradley's heart, the aroma of the tea unsettled him. It felt as if the following moment was when he actually faced Richard's covert forces.

"Mr. Warner, strictly speaking, you're my master now," Gavin stated, gazing into the distant sunlight through the window. His eyes held a chilly gleam. "Where there's light, there's darkness. With demand comes wrongdoing. Of course, we only serve a select few."

Bradley listened quietly to Gavin's words.

"Mr. Warner, you might not understand, but in reality, every person has their price tag." Gavin spoke lightly, as if stripping away someone's life was trivial.

"We need to consider the implementation and its consequences every time. Of course, Mr. Warner, you know how risky our actions are. But for wealth and status, we pursue r

    Bradley's words made Gavin laugh aloud. He looked at the boiling kettle and softly said, "Mr. Warner, you might have a misconception about us. There's no deal that can't be struck here, only insufficient bargaining chips. Everyone has their weak spot, including you and me."Gavin's candidness made Bradley understand one thing. In Gavin's world, everything could be priced. Even orchestrating an accident merely required a willing driver. As for why no flaws were found in the investigation, it was because Gavin would legally compensate the driver's family.Bradley thought to ask what Gavin and his team offered when Chadwick wanted Cole dead. But in a moment's thought, he felt there was no need to know anymore. Because... even if he knew, Cole wouldn't return to him."Aren't you afraid..." Bradley was acutely aware that Gavin's line of work wasn't lawful.Gavin looked at the steaming kettle, his expression indifferent. "Mr. Warner, wealth and risk often go hand in hand. God is fair. He

    Dylan suppressed his anger, refraining from directly questioning Bradley. Instead, he continued to work by Bradley's side, believing that darkness would eventually pass and light would prevail.Bradley turned and looked at Dylan. "Go buy a plot of land for a grave. It'd be best to select a favorable location to erect a tombstone for Cole.""Mr. Warner, who is Cole?" Dylan asked, feigning ignorance.Bradley's heart ached. "He was your predecessor, my special assistant."Bradley held onto the belief that, as long as he hadn't laid eyes on Cole's body, there lingered a possibility that Cole was still alive. Yet, with Gavin's words echoing, the harsh truth hit Bradley. Cole's chances of survival were minimal. They were professionals—very professional."Alright, Mr. Warner." Dylan painfully suppressed his grief and indignation. He couldn't comprehend how Bradley, after Cole's loyal service to the Warner Group, could be so heartless.A grave? A tombstone? Could that alleviate his guilt

    Oliver's attitude was within Bradley's expectations. "Mr. Quill, I'm ready for it anytime."Hadn't Esther said he owed her three lives? He really wanted to know why she had said that. When did he owe her three lives?"Then please look forward to it, Warner," Oliver said and stepped past Bradley toward the car parked at the company entrance.Bradley thought about Felix and his own daughters, whose whereabouts were unknown, and quickly caught up with Oliver."Is there something else?"Bradley looked at Oliver. Gavin's presence and the forces behind him were like a constantly ticking bomb.He wasn't afraid of death. If he died, he would reunite with her sooner under the ground. He would surely ask for her forgiveness. However, he was worried about Felix.As Gavin had mentioned, everyone had a weakness, and his weakness was Felix.Felix was the treasure brought into this world by Esther with her life. He hoped Felix could live peacefully and continue his and Esther's lives."Mr. Q

    Kevin sighed helplessly as he thought that such was life's twists and turns.-After hanging up, Bradley searched for a hypnotist on his phone. As he was checking the profile of a hypnotist, his phone rang.Gavin: [Mr. Warner, regarding Cole's death, you can ask Mr. Chadwick in person.]This message from Gavin reminded Bradley. He immediately set aside his search for a hypnotist and took a cab to meet Chadwick.-Chadwick saw Bradley in the reception room."Warner, I heard you've taken over my dad's underground forces. Congratulations, you're now the king of the night!"Bradley didn't inquire how Chadwick got this news. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why did you want Cole dead?"Chadwick burst into laughter. "Do I need a reason to want someone dead?"Bradley sat lazily, but his expression was chilly.Chadwick looked at him mockingly. He sniffed and tapped the table in front of Bradley with his handcuffed hand. "Got any cigarettes?"Bradley didn't have any. "No."Chadwick

    When Chadwick heard that, he immediately retorted, "That's impossible!"Jolene loved him so much. How could she possibly give up their child?While Chadwick initially opposed Jolene having their child, his perspective shifted after being incarcerated and losing his freedom. The child Jolene was carrying became his newfound hope for survival."Why impossible?" Bradley retorted, looking at Chadwick, who seemed almost on the brink of madness. "Everything, starting from when you killed Jolene's father, was destined."Chadwick's eyes were crimson as he yelled, "You're lying!""Chadwick, having no one to keep your family line going is your retribution."Bradley stood up, looked at Chadwick, and walked away with grace, leaving Chadwick behind.Chadwick kept pounding the table with handcuffed hands.It was impossible! Absolutely impossible! Jolene would never harm their child! He refused to believe Bradley's nonsense.Bradley heard Chadwick's outburst behind him. He looked up at the s

    Selene asked, "And then?""I suspect she's my wife, Esther. I need you to get close to her to confirm my suspicion," Bradley said.Selene said hesitantly with a frown, "From what I know, she isn't your ex-wife.""Ms. Cassell, I'm not asking you to commit crimes or do anything illegal. I only need you to approach Esther to prove my suspicion." Bradley asked coldly, "Could it be that you don't care at all about your son, whom you've never met?""As long as you have accurate information about my son, I'll do it."As soon as Selene spoke, Bradley immediately played the recording of his conversation with Chadwick.Upon hearing Chadwick's voice, Selene's brows knitted together, and her fists clenched on her knees. She felt like she was losing her balance, especially when she heard Chadwick's arrogant words. She couldn't help shaking in anger."Mr. Warner, are you suggesting that Cole is my son?"Bradley coolly raised an eyebrow. "I'm only speculating. To be certain, we need a DNA tes

    Selene's gaze saw through it all. Men like Richard had trained her to read people.Bradley was cold and ruthless by nature. Perhaps even now, he still didn't understand what Esther meant to him."Ms. Cassell, I don't think we're the type of relationship to discuss this." Bradley's burning gaze stayed on Selene. "You should know that Cole had an accident..."Just the thought of Chadwick's voice made Selene seethe with hatred. She spoke in a low voice. "I know."Even if Cole wasn't alive, she would avenge him if the DNA test proved he was her son.She had failed as a mother. She had raised the son of an enemy, someone capable of killing her own son.She wouldn't justify her actions but would seek revenge for her son, no matter the cost.-Bradley and Selene took a helicopter to Cole's place.Bradley easily entered Cole's room code.Upon entering, the stale scent of the place being vacant for some time filled the air. Cole's home was adorned in simple black, white, and gray, eve

    Bradley watched Selene silently, not interrupting. She stayed in sorrow for a while and eventually used a handkerchief to gently wipe her tears away.Selene had never imagined that her long-searched-for son would appear before her in this manner. Even if her son hadn't grown up by her side, he had become the embodiment of her ideal son. Had he grown up with her, he would have surely made her proud. Alas..."After Cole's accident, was his body never found?"Bradley solemnly confirmed, "No, it wasn't.""If his body wasn't found, it means he might still be alive." Selene stood up composedly, holding the DNA test. "Unless I find his body, I'll always believe he's still alive. Mr. Warner, thank you for giving me this hopeful news. I'll do what you asked."After a few steps, Selene turned back to look at the cold and ruthless Bradley."Mr. Warner, let me remind you that whatever you ask me to do is meaningless.

    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
