My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 718

Bradley wanted Esther to be by his side always—never to leave him. He had never thought of Esther dying!

'Esther! Wake up! I command you to wake up right now!' Bradley's cold eyes brimmed with tears, and his thin lips trembled uncontrollably.

"Daddy, will Mommy die?" Felix gazed at Bradley, who struggled to contain his emotions. "Will Mommy die?"

The word "die" made Bradley's temples throb. He grabbed Felix and hastily ushered him out of the ICU room.

"Daddy! Let me in!" Felix desperately pounded on the door.

Bradley seemed oblivious and hurried to Esther's side.

"Esther! I know you're faking it! The same trick won't work twice! I'm warning you, if I count to three and you still don't wake up, I will have someone harm your daughters and send their hands to you!"

Bradley dialed a number on his phone. "One... Two... Three!"

Esther kept her eyes tightly shut, displaying no signs of awakening.

Felix's cries drew nurses and Kevin to the ICU.

"Move!"

Kevin stood his ground, resolute. "Behave yourself in front of Felix!"

"Get out of my way!" Bradley pushed Kevin aside, but the latter clung to the bed's edge. He couldn't yield—Esther's hope rested on it.

Suddenly, a piercing alarm blared!

Bradley, Kevin, Felix, and the ICU staff stared in astonishment at Esther on the hospital bed, their faces betraying their shock.
