Steffan's dark blue eyes flickered with a hint of mockery. He subtly lifted his proud chin and replied in a cold tone, "Certainly.""Good," Xara responded, her voice hoarse. She then looked toward the bathroom door in the study. "Shall we move to the bathroom?""We shall."Xara entered the bathroom first. She turned on the faucet and washed her hands meticulously. Her mind flooded with memories of everything that had happened in that bathroom. She took a deep breath and splashed cold water on her face to calm herself.Then she called to Steffan, who was sitting on the sofa, "I'm ready. You can come in now."Steffan stood up gracefully and walked slowly into the bathroom. Xara felt incredibly awkward as she reached out to close the door behind him. Once the door was shut, she turned to Steffan and asked in surprise, "You're just going to stand there?""Or what!?" Steffan retorted.Xara had no reply. She truly came across a real piece of work. 'I'll endure this,' she thought.Xar

Chapter 442

Xara hesitated briefly before elegantly taking a seat next to Esther. She placed a napkin on her lap. The dining room atmosphere turned strangely awkward. As a guest, Esther felt uncertain about alleviating the tension.At that moment, Sunshine approached, her hands and shoes clean. Without any assistance from servants, she skillfully climbed onto her chair. She then reached out her chubby little hand toward Jacob."Jacob, smell my hand. Isn't it fragrant?"Without a second thought, Jacob replied, "Yes, it is."Seeing that everyone was present, Steffan folded the newspaper in his hand and uttered indifferently, "Serve the dishes.""Yes," the servants replied promptly, relaying the message to the kitchen through the intercom.In a matter of moments, uniformed servants brought an array of dishes to the dining room. The table was adorned with exotic delicacies from around the world, while child-friendly meals were placed near Sunshine and Felix. Their eyes widened excitedly as they

"Leave Sunshine here with me then." Xara figured that since Jacob cherished Sunshine so much, her presence might help bridge their distance."Xara, I want to bring Sunshine back to my country, but her custody is with the church. I need to consult with Anna about whether I can get custody from the church," Esther said.Xara pondered for a moment and then urged, "Try asking her now."Esther took out her phone and called Anna. She explained her intention to bring Sunshine back to her country.Upon hearing that, Anna responded with a heavy tone. "Esther, I was about to call you as well. The church informed me that someone wants to adopt Sunshine.""What? Adoption? That's not acceptable!" Esther was resolute. Sunshine's adoption was out of the question for her. Her concern stemmed from the possibility of the church engaging in illegal organ trade while presenting it as an adoption. This concern was amplified by Sunshine's young age and recent heart surgery."Esther, the legal custody

Chapter 444

Steffan was quite a sentimental man. He was still using the same phone number he had five years ago."Steffan, it's me. Can we talk about adopting Sunshine..."Esther added from the side, "And Twinkle..."Steffan's light, mocking tone reached Esther's ears. "Xara, you couldn't even be a good mother to your own son. Now you want to be a mother to others?"Xara's pretty face flushed with shame. "Steffan, Esther only wants us to adopt them in name. It's not like we are really adopting them—"Before Xara could finish her sentence, Steffan coldly interrupted her. "Has Jacob agreed?"Xara was momentarily startled, her grip tightening on the phone as she sought Jacob's opinion."Jacob, can we temporarily help Esther adopt Twinkle and Sunshine?"Esther was also watching Jacob anxiously. "Jacob, I'm begging you..." she said pleadingly."I agree."Those two words from Jacob were like music to Esther and Xara's ears."Thank you, Jacob." Esther was incredibly grateful. Jacob was truly a

Chapter 445

Esther wasn't aware of Xara and Steffan's history, but she understood that should Felix fall ill, she'd have to bear another child to save him. Even returning to the man she despised for Felix's sake wasn't off the table."I would," she affirmed.Xara asked, "Even after how he's treated you?"Esther looked at Xara intently, sharing her thoughts. "As I watch you right now, Xara, you know what I'm considering? Learning self-defense, maybe becoming stronger. If the time comes, I'll knock Bradley out. After all, I just need his contribution, not him personally."And if that doesn't work, I'll try a different approach. Bradley's attractive, and his stamina is good. I'll treat him like a vibrator without any emotional attachment."Xara couldn't help but chuckle at Esther's words, her hand covering her mouth. "Esther, your perspective is certainly unique," she commented, amused.Esther lifted the wine glass before her, taking a sip. "During the time Bradley held me captive, these very t

"Mommyy!"Each time Felix called "Mommy," it was always straightforward. When Sunshine called "Mommy," she always extended the last syllable. Esther could easily distinguish who was calling out to her."My darlings, have you been waiting long?"Sunshine replied in a sweet and soft voice, "Nope!"Esther pointed to the bathroom, ruffled the hair of the two adorable children, and said gently, "I'm going to take a shower. We'll chat later, alright?""Okay."When Esther came out of the shower, Felix had fallen asleep. As a boy, Felix often played vigorously during the day. Once his energy was spent, he would sleep early in the evening."Sunshine, what book are you reading?" Esther sat down next to Sunshine.Sunshine snuggled into Esther's arms like a clingy kitten. "Mommy, you smell so nice!"Esther saw that Sunshine was reading "The Magic School Bus", so she joined Sunshine and began reading the picture book with her."Sunshine, Anna and I are not yet qualified to adopt you. I pl

Chapter 447

The entire "Frontline Scoop" crew faced suppression from unknown forces, and the team was completely overhauled.Alice was tactfully demoted to the head of a shopping channel with incredibly poor ratings. This meant she could no longer investigate the illegal organ trade case, and her exclusive report on the matter was overshadowed by more explosive news.Fewer people were interested in the illegal organ trade investigation as they were drawn to more exciting stories.Alice had never anticipated that her work would expose such sensitive interests of certain individuals. After much contemplation, she reluctantly accepted her job transfer and put all matters related to the illegal organ trade on hold.However, upon receiving Esther's message, Alice carefully considered her options before finally deciding to call her and arrange a meeting at the Sanderson family residence.Alice herself chose the location.She arrived at the Sandersons' early in the morning, tired. A diligent maid w

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

Chapter 450

"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
