Chapter 617
Esther’s heart ached deeply from Bradley’s hurtful words. She had done everything for him without expecting anything in return. Yet, his scornful insults still caused her immense pain.
“Bradley! Are you even human? How can you say such things to Esther?” Jasper barked.
“Esther might be a treasure in your eyes, but she’s just a stalk of weed to me,” Bradley replied coldly, his eyes filled with disdain. “If you’re here to check if I’m dead or alive, thanks to Esther, I’m alive! Are you satisfied now? You can leave.”
Applause echoed crisply from the hospital room’s doorway. Chadwick leaned casually against the door frame, clapping his hands and enjoying the scene.
His presence immediately caught everyone’s attention.
When Bradley saw Chadwick, a fiery fury ignited in his dark eyes. “Pendleton…”
Esther’s heart tightened.
Chadwick seemed pleased with Esther’s reaction. He walked into the room and casually tossed an invitation to Bradley.
“Warner, please do me the honor,” Chadwick said, his eyes gleaming with mockery.
Bradley calmly opened the invitation. When he saw Esther and Chadwick’s names side by side, he suggested nonchalantly,
Pendleton, how about we make it a double celebration?”
With great interest, Chadwick glanced at the pale-faced Esther. He walked up to her and placed his arm around her shoulder in a dominating display of power before Bradley.
As Chadwick’s hand touched Esther’s shoulder, she felt a wave of nausea. She wanted to break free, but Chadwick held her firmly, immobilizing her.
“Esther Quill!” Chadwick gripped Esther’s shoulder and stared at her warningly. “No one in this world dares to use me, do you
understand?”
Esther stiffened.
Chadwick ignored the gazes of Esther, Jasper, Jordyn, and Bradley and continued. “The invitations have been sent out. Esther, if you dare to change your mind…”
He snorted coldly. “I’ll have someone extract his liver right here!’
