GoodReadChapter 452
Bradley tightly gripped Esther’s neck and forcefully pressed his lips against hers.
His heart numbed with pain after learning of Esther’s leap into the sea. He repeated to himself that she
couldn’t be dead-there was no way.
However, Bradley’s panic surged when Jasper held an almost absurd funeral for Esther. Fear
enveloped him, afraid that her death had indeed become a reality.
Even after the confirmation of her survival, disbelief lingered.
Only through the act of passionately kissing Esther, without reservations, did he finally verify she was
alive.
Bradley’s powerful kiss conveyed dominance and possessiveness.

kicked him, forcing his grip on her wrist to loosen.
“Ms. Quill.”
The bodyguards quickly moved forward to shield Esther. The speed at which Esther and Bradley had
acted earlier had been too fast for them to react properly.
Esther casually retrieved a pack of tissues from her purse to wipe the blood from the corner of her lips.
She smirked as she mockingly looked at Bradley and said, “Bradley, do you know what you look like
right now?”
Esther would never forget how Bradley had treated her when she had specially attended Thomas’
funeral.
Bradley spat out a mouthful of blood and asked smugly, “Esther, did you enjoy that kiss just now?”
Esther turned away indifferently.
Bradley hurriedly caught up to her. One aggressive movement from him, and the bodyguards
immediately encircled Esther to protect her.
“Esther, the Quills won’t be able to protect you forever. I advise you to come back to my side obediently
now. Otherwise-”
Esther disdainfully interrupted, “Bradley, do you know what I regret the most in my life?”
Bradley smirked provocatively. “You want to say you regret falling in love with me the most?”
“Yes, my biggest regret is loving you,” Esther’s eyes reddened, her voice tinged with pain.. “I always
believed your feelings for me were absent, but I could never have fathomed your heartless nature.
You’re willing to exploit our children as leverage to force me into submission, to make me spend my
entire life making amends for Grandpa Thomas’ death. You see our children as mere tools to

“Yet, to me, they are my whole world. From now on, Bradley, I won’t tolerate you. As you refuse to
disclose where my daughter is, we will address this matter in court.”
Bradley aimed to use her daughter’s location to manipulate her, coercing her to surrender. But
she wouldn’t naively fall into his trap this time. She would use the law as her weapon to protect herself.
Bradley’s icy stare held a trace of scorn, “Esther, you really wish to divorce me?”
“Yes.”
Once, she had dreamt of marrying Bradley, becoming his wife. But now, her strongest desire was to
break free.
“You seek a divorce?” Bradley drew nearer, his frigid gaze unrelenting. “Perhaps in another life!”
The bodyguards were afraid that Bradley might harm Esther, so they stood like a wall between. them.
Esther gazed at Bradley past the bodyguards, her tone indifferent. “Even if I die, I don’t want to leave
this world as Bradley Warner’s wife. Do you understand?”
