My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 810

Esther's passing had a profound impact on Bradley. He retreated to the study, a room filled with Esther's photographs. Each vivid image stirred within Bradley a haunting sensation, as if Esther still lingered, concealed in some obscure corner.

In his mind, she had merely hidden herself away, eluding his search forever.

-

Bradley had remained locked in that study for three days, neglecting food and drink.

Concerned for his well-being, the service staff had no choice but to call Mandy for assistance.

Mandy was unwilling to confront the grieving Bradley alone, so she reached out to Kevin.

Kevin was known for his tough exterior and soft heart. While he might have claimed not to care about Bradley's well-being, he hurried to Warner Manor when Mandy called him.

Mandy and Kevin arrived almost simultaneously.

The service staff regarded Mandy as a savior. "Ms. Pendleton, Mr. Warner has been locked in the study for three days," a maid reported.

Mandy had been previously expelled from Warner Manor by Bradley. When she heard the maid's words, she turned to Kevin. "Dr. Slade, I have no special relationship with Bradley. I don't have a proper role in this situation. It's not my place to intervene."

Kevin gave Mandy a meaningful look and kindly advised, "Mandy, don't get romantically involved with Bradley."

Mandy appeared puzzled, as if she didn't grasp the meaning behind Kevin's words.

"Getting involved with Bradley brings trouble. I guarantee it." Kevin wanted to mention Esther as a living example of this warning.

Kevin looked at Bradley in this condition and quickly fetched a basin of water from the bathroom. Without uttering a word, he poured it over Bradley.

The icy water caused Braley to gradually open his eyes and gaze at Kevin.

"Kevin."

Kevin seized Bradley by the collar and sneered. "Bradley, are you pretending to be sorrowful and heartbroken in here only after Esther's death? Don't you see how hypocritical you are?"

A metallic taste filled Bradley's mouth. When he tried to speak, a mouthful of blood sprayed out.

"Dr. Slade... Mr. Warner is coughing up blood!"
