Chapter 14
Esther’s repeated escape had only made Bradley’s rage burn his rationale away. He stepped on the pedal again to run the
Bentley onto the pavement. Jasper kept Esther in his arms during the collision and nearly passed out from the collision. Bradley
looked at the Bentley in front of him with a dark look and pulled out his phone to make a call. “Cole, get some men over.” Even
with Jasper’s protection, Esther’s forehead was busted. Blood flowed like a small stream. She looked at Bradley, who felt
murderous outside the car, and trembled in fear. Bradley got out of his car, looking like he could kill, and kicked the Bentley’s
door open to pull Esther out brutally. His eyes were screaming bloody murder as he choked Esther by the neck and slammed her
against the Bentley’s door. Esther felt like Bradley was going to snap her neck and pushed him on the chest as much as she
could. It was just that her strength was nothing before the man. “How dare you escape twice within the same night, Esther!? “You
should feel lucky that you’re still useful or else...” If Felix was not in the hospital waiting for this woman’s bone marrow to save
him, Bradley could not hold himself back from breaking her neck with his own hands. Bradley kept squeezing, and Esther’s face
turned purple. Her oxygen was running out from her lungs bit by bit. Death shadowed Esther, but she thought of Tinkerbell in the
hospital and punched the car hard. Jasper, who was disorientated from the collision, heard Esther’s cry for help and forced
himself out of the car. He shakily staggered between Esther and Bradley. “Mr. Warner, your son... will be dead if Esther dies!”
Bradley sneered. “Jasper, a sl*tty b*tch like this is worth sacrificing your life?” “Mr. Warner, even though your marriage with
Esther isn’t perfect—” Before Jasper finished, Bradley chuckled coldly. “This marriage is a humiliation in my life.” Bradley’s
expression was menacing as he warned Jasper. “Don’t get involved!” He let go of his chokehold on Esther abruptly. Like a
drowning person, Esther held the Bentley door and took in gulps of fresh air. She stood before Bradley with a bloodied face and
could not help blurting Tinkerbell’s birth when she thought of how the girl had been sent off in an ambulance. “Bradley! Pixie and
Tinkerbell in Sunflower Welfare are our daughters. If you don’t believe it, you can do a paternity test right now!” Not only did
Bradley not believe her, but his eyes also brimmed with mockery. “I don’t believe a word you say, Esther!” Bradley then yanked
Esther’s arm and pulled her to his car without a care. Jasper hurried forward to catch up and advised hoarsely, “Bradley Warner,
calm down!” Calm down? When his son was on the brink of death? And the person who promised to save him kept pushing his
limits!? It was then a few black cars skidded to a stop in front of Bradley. A squad of trained men in black got out and approached
Bradley in a uniform stride. “Mr. Warner!” Jasper remained relentless despite being outnumbered by Bradley. “Bradley, walk over
me if you want to take Esther away today!” Bradley glanced at Jasper and ridiculed him. “I don’t take threats from anyone,
Searle. Your life is unworthy of a mention to me. Help her again, and I’ll wipe out the Searles.” Bradley looked at his men and
instructed them, “Take good care of Mr. Searle.” The men in black went up and surrounded Jasper securely. “Bradley, let me
save Tinkerbell, please! I promise I won’t run away again. I’ll save Felix.” Esther begged Bradley, trying to stir the last bit of his
sympathy. Unfortunately, her voice only fueled his rage when he heard her. There was only blank bloodthirst on his handsome
face as he impatiently sealed Esther’s mouth with yellow tape. He also wrapped her hands and feet with tape to prevent her from
running off. Bradley tossed her to the backseat and tied her up with the seatbelt before pulling out his phone. “Get the operation
ward ready. Operate on Felix as soon as I arrive.” The car sped toward the hospital without care. Esther closed her eyes in
despair... ‘Tinkerbell, hold it out a bit more! ‘Mommy will save you! ‘Wait for me!’ The car came to a stop in front of the hospital,
and Bradley pulled Esther out to hand her over to the doctor and nurses. Without Bradley’s instruction, no medical professional
in the hospital dared free Esther of her restraints. Esther was still tied up when she was sent into the preparation room. After all
the prep work was done, she was then sent to the operation ward. Bradley, who had completely disinfected himself, entered
wearing a sterile surgical gown. His gentle gaze fell on another operation theater, where Felix was under anesthesia. Esther’s
bone marrow was compatible with Felix, meaning the boy could bid farewell to being sick from then on. He could run, skip, and
go to preschool like a regular kid. Bradley would raise him into the most outstanding heir of the Warner Group, so his grandfather
would rest in peace knowing it. On the other side, Esther looked at Bradley pleadingly as she struggled in the operation theater.
The doctors and nurses could not quiet her down. Bradley approached her and looked down at the girl, who was like a helpless
beast. He tore the tape off her mouth. Esther spoke up quickly. “Bradley! Tinkerbell’s just a child. What wrong has she done!?”
Bradley squeezed her lower jaw. His answer was a soft murmur, but it was disheartening. “She’s your daughter. It’s an original
sin she carries!” Esther stubbornly wanted to tell him the truth about their daughters to try and rouse his feelings. “Bradley,
Tinkerbell has acute leukemia. She has to be operated on at once or she’ll die! “Please, Bradley, I beg you! Let me go! “She’s
your daug—” Bradley choked Esther’s neck once more until she could not make another sound. The surgical shadowless lamp
shone on Esther’s face, making her look paler while her eyes brimmed with sorrow that stunned Bradley. He could not help
loosening his hold on her neck. “Another word of nonsense, and I’ll kill those b*stards right now!” Esther used the last bit of her
energy to beg with a sob, “Please let me donate to Tinkerbell first. I promise I won’t run. I promise you can ask me anything as
long as she’s safe. “I’ll donate my bone marrow to Felix, Bradley, trust me. I’ll really donate it to him.” Bradley felt the irony when
he heard Felix’s name leaving Esther’s lips. “How does the b*stard you gave birth to worth being compared to my son?” Tears of
despair welled in Esther’s eyes. She cried helplessly, “Bradley, Tinkerbell’s really your daughter... Why don’t you believe it?”
“You really could say anything just to save that little b*stard, huh?” Bradley mocked her. He did not want to listen to her lies
anymore and taped her mouth again. “Tie her down.” “Yes, Mr. Warner.” The nurses restrained Esther, who kept struggling to the
operation theater right in front of Bradley. The moment Esther was tied down, she lost hope. Her eyes were tearful as she looked
at Bradley, who donned the gown. The anesthesiologist had prepared the anesthetic and was going to inject Esther when
Bradley went over and told him, “Give it to me.” Esther struggled with pained sobs on the table, her tearful, desperate eyes
pleading. ‘Bradley, no! ‘Don’t! ‘Tinkerbell’s still waiting for me! Our daughter’s still waiting for me to save her!’ Bradley looked at
Esther, who still wanted to break free despite being tied up in the operation theater. His surgical glove-clad hand grabbed her
fragile neck forcefully, forcing her to look at his cold eyes as he told her cruelly, “Esther Quill, it’s your blessing to be able to save
my son.” He let go with that and mercilessly pushed the syringe of anesthetic into Esther with a blank face.
