My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 794

"Esther is not your wife. She is her own person."

Kevin approached from the side, saying, "Bradley, do you think that in Esther's final moments, she might have been relieved she divorced you? If not, as her husband, you'd have had legal rights to handle her funeral. I believe she'd have preferred anything over any connection to you."

To keep Bradley away from the coffin, Jasper's big security team prevented him from approaching despite his repeated attempts. Esther was just steps away from him, yet she felt impossibly distant, forever out of reach.

Bradley seethed with anger, his eyes cold as ice. No matter how desperate or frenzied his actions, he couldn't reach his beloved.

Kevin gazed at Bradley, perplexed by his irrational behavior. After all, Bradley didn't love Esther. Whether she was alive or dead, what did it matter to him?

Bradley would never have imprisoned Esther if he had a trace of true human emotion in his heart. He wouldn't have locked her up in a lightless secret room or trapped her in a crystal coffin.

At that moment, Oliver entered hurriedly.

Jasper, filled with grief, told Oliver, "Mr. Quill, I'm so sorry. It's my lack of planning with Kevin that kept us from rescuing Esther. We never anticipated..."

Kevin added with regret, "Mr. Quill, we're truly sorry. Esther was just a minute away from escaping permanently. Just one more minute!"

Oliver's eyes looked sorrowful as he asked, "Can you tell me what happened?"

Kevin turned to explain to Oliver in front of Bradley, "Mr. Quill, I found Esther in Warner Manor. Bradley had imprisoned her in a secret room. Thankfully, Clark woke up and told me the location of the secret room. Otherwise, we might never have found Esther in this lifetime.
