GoodReadChapter 464
Bradley felt like a hole had been carved into his heart, and a chilling wind blew through. He curled up in
pain, his eyes showing hopelessness.
Jasper was right. It was his fault. He had gotten so angry about Esther and Felix’s fake death that he
had impulsively taken Felix away. He had just wanted Esther to admit her mistake, bet his wife, and
never talk of divorce.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStill, he had forgotten to buckle Felix’s seatbelt for safety. His action had scared Felix, causing him to
jump out of the car. Worse, Bradley hadn’t noticed Felix was gone for a long time.
Regret flooded Bradley. He tried to grab the railing, but his legs gave way. Struggling to stand, he lost
his vision and tumbled down the stairs.
Esther stood outside the operating room, her gaze fixed anxiously on the door. Jasper attempted to
comfort her, saying, “Esther, don’t be so worried.”
Esther didn’t respond. Who could really fathom her emotions? The child in there was her flesh and
blood, yet it was unknown whether he would survive. How could she not feel concerned?
Suddenly, the operating room door swung open. A doctor, holding a stack of consent forms, emerged.
“Who here is part of Felix Warner’s family?”
Esther hurried over, her voice filled with urgency. “I am.”
“This is the surgical consent form and the critical condition notice. Take a look.”
Esther took the surgical consent form from the doctor and pressed it against the nearby wall to sign it
with trembling hands. The moment she heard the words ‘critical condition notice’, she knew how dire

She could not afford to hesitate. She could not let her actions delay Felix’s rescue. Even if it meant
gaining one extra second, she could win a chance for Felix’s survival.
With Jasper’s help, they completed all the necessary forms. The doctor saw Jasper and Esther
standing close and assumed they were a couple.
“Doctor, how is Felix?” Jasper asked, voicing Esther’s foremost concern. He supported her as she
seemed drained of strength.
The doctor remained silent for a while before responding. “The child’s condition is not optimistic. You
should be mentally prepared.”
Upon hearing the update on Felix, Esther’s vision suddenly went black, and she fainted in Jasper’s
arms.
