Semua Bab My Husband Wants Me Dead: Bab 771 - Bab 780

"Who is he?" Bradley asked.Esther gazed into Bradley's crimson eyes and mockingly asked, "Mr. Warner, aren't you really that clever? Can you guess who he is?""Don't provoke me...""Provoke?" Esther replied calmly, "Is this provocation? No, I'm just stating a fact."Bradley let go of Esther's chin and pushed her onto the bed. His imposing presence overwhelmed her.Esther didn't resist or struggle. She simply looked at Bradley's handsome face and whispered, "You're not him."The man she had once admired, the man in her heart, could never be like this.After what felt like an eternity, Bradley stopped and looked at the lifeless Esther."Esther! I don't care if you pretend to be dead, crazy, or have amnesia. I want you to remember..." Bradley spoke arrogantly. "Until I've had enough of you, don't even think about leaving."Otherwise… you'll face the consequences."With that, Bradley forcibly took Esther into the bathroom. "Clean yourself up."Esther unzipped her dress and thor

Clark had dedicated almost half his life in service to the Warners. How did Bradley treat him after the accident?Kevin couldn't help but notice all of this and felt a deep sense of helplessness."Kevin!""Bradley, even if Clark's in a comatose state after working for the Warners for nearly a lifetime, he deserves to reunite with his own family. If you have any conscience, you should prepare a retirement fund for him."Bradley grabbed Kevin by the collar and thundered, "What are you insinuating here?""It's not an insinuation."Just as Kevin finished speaking, Bradley's phone rang, and he glanced at the unidentified number displayed on it."Bradley Warner. Who is this?""I'm Richard Pendleton. I'll give you what you want."Bradley released his grip on Kevin and coldly turned away to the window. "Your condition?""I only have one—treat my woman well."Bradley readily agreed, "As you wish."Richard added a veiled threat. "Mr. Warner, if you fail to honor your word, not even d

Bradley initially believed Esther had run away once more. He swiftly checked the surveillance cameras and confirmed that Esther was still peacefully resting inside the crystal coffin. She hadn't escaped, so what was going on?Next, he inspected the other surveillance cameras around Warner Manor and observed a large crowd of people.'Very well! The Quills are attempting to cause trouble again!'Bradley hopped onto a helicopter and returned to Warner Manor. He disembarked from the helicopter and strolled confidently toward Oliver and Gabriel."What brings you here?" he asked.Oliver gazed at Bradley. "Hand Esther over.""Mr. Quill, you must be joking. Everyone knows that Esther is well cared for by the Quills. Even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to kidnap the Quill heiress."Gabriel sneered. Unable to contain his anger at Bradley's audacity, he raised his cane and struck him."Bradley, this cane is on behalf of your grandfather to teach you a lesson!"Young man,

"Maybe you think I'm lying now. If you do, consider seeing a psychologist to retrieve that buried memory."Gabriel turned to Oliver and said, "Let's go."Oliver looked sorrowful. Gabriel looked at Mandy, then spoke seriously, "We'll discuss this more.""Okay."After Oliver and Gabriel left, all the search and rescue personnel departed, and Warner Manor returned to its usual calm.When everyone had left, Bradley grabbed a teacup from the table and hurled it at Mandy, who dodged it, and it shattered at her feet."B-Bradley," Mandy said in fear, stuttering.Bradley stepped closer, clutching Mandy's throat. His eyes turned sinisterly crimson."Bradley..."Mandy wondered if the enraged Bradley might strangle her to death.Bradley stared coldly at Mandy's face, finding no admiration in her delicate features. "Mandy, tell me, what did you want to tell Oliver?"Tears welled up in Mandy's eyes. Her voice was hoarse with pain as she replied, "I... I didn't say anything.""Do as I ins

Esther flashed a mocking smile and said casually, "Oh, sounds interesting. I could give it a try."Upon hearing that, Bradley slammed his fist against the crystal coffin. He warned Esther fiercely, "Esther, if you even think about taking your own life, I'll bring Felix back and make him witness your decaying body day and night. He'll watch your corpse rot, fester, and turn into bones!"Esther maintained her composure and replied helplessly, "You don't have to wait. You can do it right now. You have the power over all of us—me, Felix, everyone. You can do as you please."I won't feel sorry for Felix. He's stuck with a father like you."Being mute doesn't change a thing. He's still alive, and you can torment him as much as you want. If it pleases you, Mr. Bradley Warner."Esther's words weren't meant as irony. She had accepted her fate and saw no point in further discussion. She closed her eyes, awaiting Bradley's outburst.But to her surprise, the expected rage didn't come. Instea
