Chapter 69
Bradley was aware that Cole was an orphan who had grown up in a welfare institution. When he saw the water-soaked DNA test document, he instinctively assumed that it was a maternity test between Cole and his biological mother. If that were the case, could Cole’s death be related to this DNA maternity test?
Bradley then picked up the water-damaged phone from the plastic bag, but it was no longer
functional since it had been in the water for so long. He brought these items found in Cole’s car back. to the company headquarters.
The news of Cole’s accident quickly spread within the company. Since Cole was skilled at dealing with people, everyone was worried about him. They even discussed going to the most famous local temple. that weekend to pray for his safe return.
Bradley usually assigned tasks to Cole, but he was still working normally now that something had happened to Cole. When the employees of the Warner Group saw that Bradley was still working as usual, they all realized that the world kept turning, no matter who was not around.
One would see their work as their life, but one would discover that health was more important in the
face of life and death!
While Bradley was working at the Warner Group headquarters with a heavy heart, Liliane made an early morning phone call to Clark, asking him to take care of Felix at the hospital today. She had made arrangements with a wedding company to select a wedding venue.
For Liliane, Felix was nothing more than a tool for her to get closer to Bradley. Now that Bradley was going to marry her, she did not pay as much attention to Felix as before.
Since Clark had listened to the recording, he had been privately investigating Liliane. The more he investigated, the more he found inconsistencies in Liliane’s behavior. For example, Liliane appeared to dote on Felix, but in reality, she only treated him kindly when Bradley was around. Otherwise, she would be busy playing on her phone when it was just the two of them.
Furthermore, a nanny had always taken care of Felix since he was young, relieving Liliane of the constant need to worry about him.
“Grandpaw Clark, can we go see Mommy?” Felix naturally referred to Esther as Mommy when it was just Clark and Felix.
Clark gently stroked Felix’s hair and said in a warm voice, “Felix, I can take you to see her, but you have to promise me that we’ll keep it a secret until the truth is fully investigated. Do you understand what I mean?”
Although Felix did not fully understand it, he bit his lip and nodded in agreement,
“Felix, trust me, the truth will come to light soon,” said Clark.
Felix continued to ask in his baby voice, “Grandpaw Clark, when can we go?”
Clark lifted Felix from the hospital bed and gently placed him in a wheelchair. He pushed the wheelchair and arrived at the ICU room where Esther was in. Felix saw through the thick glass that Esther was barely clinging to life and could not help but tear up. Tears fell from his eyes.
