My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 747

Esther gazed at Thomas' photograph on the tombstone, tears welling in her eyes. She used to wonder why Thomas had been so kind to her, and now she understood it was because of her mother.

She recalled a time when Liliane would often ask Billy why Esther could marry Bradley while she couldn't. She questioned why Martin treated them so differently.

The mystery from those years had finally been solved today, but she couldn't do anything now. Thomas and Martin were no longer with them. She couldn't repay their kindness.

Esther told Thomas inwardly, 'Grandpa Thomas, I'm sorry. I have to divorce Bradley. I can't grow old with him as you wished. I'm sorry.'

Clark's eyes welled up with tears as well. "Mr. Thomas, I can't watch over Bradley anymore. He'll gradually push everyone out of his life."

"Thomas, Martin, I'll visit you again," Gabriel said, raising a glass to the empty air and toasting his two old friends. He had seen friend after friend leave this world while he still carried the weight of the past. He was exhausted.

Clark drove the group away after they paid their respects and said their goodbyes. Gabriel sat in the front seat, with Esther and Felix in the back.

As they approached an intersection, an out-of-control cement truck barreled toward them.

Clark spotted the danger and immediately swerved. The car collided with the cement truck—the impact sent it in the air, rolling and tumbling toward the roadside. Shattered glass could be seen all around.
