My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 539

Chapter 539 

‘Felix can’t have a mom behind bars, nor can he have a dad in the same situation,’ Esther thought 

When Kevin received the call about Bradley being locked up in Capitus’ detention center, he was on the verge of exploding with anxiety. He rushed there immediately, accompanied by Jonathan, only to find Bradley in a state of despair. His clothes were stained with Esther’s dried blood. 

“Bradley, what’s wrong? Are you injured? Did someone attack you?” Kevin bombarded Bradley with questions, deeply concerned by his condition. 

Bradley slouched in his chair and impatiently gestured at Kevin. 

“What?” Kevin was taken aback. 

Jonathan cautiously offered, “Would you like a cigarette?” 

Kevin was astonished. “You smoke?” 

Kevin had always viewed Bradley as a model of self-discipline. He had only seen Bradley smoke once, back when Esther’s 

video scandal broke five years ago. It seemed that Bradley hadn’t smoked since then. 

Jonathan retrieved a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his bag, handing them to Bradley. 

Bradley skillfully opened the pack, selected a cigarette, and lit it gracefully. The flicker of the lighter illuminated the tobacco, and Bradley took a deep drag, releasing a wispy plume of smoke from his lips. 

Bradley finally spoke. “That blood isn’t mine.” 

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief. “Well, that’s a relief.” 

“Add another issue to the divorce papers. Esther’s pregnant, so divorce is no longer an option.” 

Jonathan glanced at Bradley, seeking confirmation. “Madam is pregnant?” 

Bradley remained silent, glancing at Kevin as he casually asked, “If I don’t get that liver transplant, what’s my life expectancy? 

“Mr. Warner, what are you getting at?” Jonathan inquired cautiously. 

Kevin’s heart sank, and he asked through clenched teeth, “Will you please explain what’s happening?” 

Jonathan nodded, realizing that understanding the situation was crucial to freeing Bradley from custody. 

“Esther is pregnant.” 

Unable to contain himself, Kevin exclaimed, “That’s fantastic news! Her pregnancy will temporarily halt the divorce proceedings.” 

“She had a miscarriage!” 

Kevin was stunned, jumping out of his seat. “How did she lose the baby?” 

Bradley remained silent. 

Struggling to find the right words, Kevin speculated, “Is it because she had her first child while in prison and didn’t get proper rest, or perhaps because this child was submerged in seawater for so long-” 

“I caused the miscarriage,” Bradley interrupted.
