My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 358

Chapter 358 

“Mommy, will that bad man who kidnapped us try and hurt us?” Felix was extremely nervous. Esther smiled, trying to reassure him. “No, he won’t.” 

“Really?” Felix remained uneasy. 

Esther nodded. “Really.” 

She wasn’t sure if the person would recognize Felix and herself. 

‘If they recognize us, will it put us in danger? Should we leave to keep Anna and the others safe from this mess?’ 

“Do we have to leave now, Mommy?” Felix asked. 

Even though Esther was anxious, she didn’t show it. She had to be a mother who could make her son feel safe. 

“If we want to leave, we’ll have to wait until tomorrow, or Sunshine will still think you’re scared.” 

Esther playfully flicked Felix’s nose. 

Felix pouted and protested, “I’m not scared. I’m super brave!” 

“Yes, you are, Felix. You’re the bravest little boy!” Esther affectionately bumped heads with Felix and said softly, “Shall we go and play with Sunshine and Anna?” 

“Sure!” 

Felix and Esther made their way downstairs to the living room. 

Sunshine watched Felix from a distance, a faint hint of worry appearing on her beautiful face. 

Seeing Felix was in much better spirits, Anna smiled teasingly and asked, “Are you still scared, Felix?” 

“Not anymore!” 

Only then did Sunshine slowly approach Felix’s side, using her cute and sweet voice to 

apologize. “I’m sorry for scaring you, Felix.” 

Felix graciously replied, “It’s… It’s okay.” 

Sunshine reached out her hand, and Felix held it tightly. 

“I’ll take you to the fruit garden behind us to play,” Sunshine said. 

“Okay!” 

While it was still daylight, Sunshine and Felix headed to the fruit garden behind the house to play. 

Observing that they were still children, Esther and Anna followed them to the fruit garden to keep an eye on them. 

The garden was filled with numerous fruit trees, and as the host, Sunshine enthusiastically explained to Felix the different types of fruits on each tree. 

“I had no idea Felix was such a timid boy, Esther.” Anna felt embarrassed, thinking that Sunshine and Felix would get along well. 

But none of them anticipated that their first meeting would turn out to be so awkward.
