Bradley had witnessed Esther being pushed into the incinerator. What more did he expect?
Xara didn't disturb Bradley. Instead, she went to check on the three children.
Jacob exuded a big brother vibe, and Sunshine and Felix were sensible. They had teachers for studies and a butler for daily life.
Now pregnant again, Xara couldn't afford excessive worry due to her health. Moreover, she had to attend prenatal classes regularly.
As Xara prepared to leave, Bradley blocked her way, asking, "Dr. Sadler, can I see Felix?"
"Felix is your son. If he wants to see you, I have no objections."
Choked, Bradley didn't know what to say.
"I'll ask him," she said.
After consulting Felix, Xara arranged for him to meet Bradley. Father and son sat face to face.
Felix sat upright, displaying an unusual maturity for his age mirrored in Bradley's face.
"Felix," Bradley began.
Felix looked up at Bradley. The latter's eyes were gentle, and his tone soft as he said, "I'm going back to the country. I know you're doing well with the Sandersons, and I'm relieved.
"The Warner Group is now under your name. Study well, and it will be yours in the future. My contact details haven't changed. If you need anything, feel free to call me.
"Felix, I know you're not ready to forgive me yet, and that's okay. I can wait. I can wait until the day you're willing to forgive me."
