Esther gazed up at Jasper, her beautiful eyes shimmering with tears. "But what?"
Jasper took a deep breath and spoke hoarsely. "According to the driver's family and friends, the driver doesn't drink because he's allergic to alcohol."
"Why would he drink if he's allergic to alcohol?" Esther's suspicions about Bradley grew stronger. She still had doubts about him.
"I'm not sure," Jasper replied, his voice low.
Esther was equally uncertain. She didn't want to suspect Bradley, but the evidence seemed to point in his direction.
"Esther, if this car accident was indeed an accident..."
Esther looked at Jasper, her eyes filled with tears, silently asking if he still believed it was an accident at that point.
"By the way, Esther, is it okay that you didn't attend court today?" Jasper asked.
Esther nodded and replied softly, "It's fine. We have enough evidence."
After a moment of silence, she continued. "Even if we fail, it's okay. We still have the future... I don't want to be involved with Bradley anymore."
Jasper reached out to comfort Esther but hesitated halfway.
Kyle emerged from the ICU, and Esther and Jasper stood up simultaneously.
