Bradley knew Esther had a soft heart. Without Jasper by her side, she couldn't endure it any longer.
Jasper said coldly, "Warner, isn't cutting off the hands right before us a better option? Are you just trying to scare Esther? Words won't suffice. If you're going to do it, do it for real."
Upon hearing about Bradley and Esther's situation from a nurse, Kevin dismissed his intention to ignore Bradley and rushed to Esther, breathless. "Esther, don't let Bradley deceive you. He doesn't know where your daughters are."
Seeing Kevin's arrival, Jasper discreetly pulled back his hand.
"Kevin!" Bradley growled.
Kevin showed no fear and said firmly, "Esther, don't trust him."
In a hoarse voice, Esther asked in disbelief, "Kevin, are you saying he's been lying to me?"
"It's because you're trusting and easily fooled, Esther!"
Kevin hadn't expected Bradley to use their children to manipulate Esther. Those children were not only Esther's but also Bradley's. How could a father be so heartless as to use his children to threaten her?
"Bradley! How could you use our children to deceive me?!"
Esther was furious. She glared at the man before her, feeling alienated and scared. Her love for him vanished completely.
