Chapter 528
Esther appeared stunning from every angle-her photos emerged as masterpieces, no matter the
perspective.
Representing the Quills, Marcus thrust Esther into the public eye.
“Thank you all for making time for Esther’s birthday bash amidst your busy schedules. Esther,
everything before today was just the beginning. From this day forth, the world will revolve around you,
like the sun, moon, and stars…”
With Marcus’ influence, even a simple “Welcome, Esther!” would earn a resounding applause.
Esther gracefully withstood everyone’s scrutiny.
Certain families even considered arranging marriages between their distinguished heirs and Esther.

leverage the Quills’ support through Esther.
After some pleasantries, Sadie urged Esther to take photos and playfully insisted on uploading them to
social media.
“Mommy, you look so beautiful today!”
Esther’s joy was contagious, and Felix was impeccably dressed to match the occasion.
In his sharp suit, he exuded charm. His warm personality won over many guests, especially wealthy
women who yearned for grandchildren from their married sons.
“You look incredibly handsome today too!”
Flattered by Esther’s praise, Felix beamed and declared, “Mommy, I’ll be by your side-”
Before Felix could finish his sentence, several young girls surrounded him, eager to play.
“Nope, I’m a manly man, and I’m sticking with my mommy,” Felix firmly declared.
The adorable girls then turned their charming gazes toward Esther. She reluctantly agreed and left
Felix under Sadie’s watch.
“Mommy, I can take care of myself. I don’t need Aunt Sadie.”
However, Sadie still assumed responsibility for Felix.
Watching Sadie take charge among the children, Esther couldn’t help but smile warmly. She cherished
the Quills’ welcoming and friendly atmosphere, which didn’t judge her past in prison.
Because of this, Esther politely handled the situation to avoid tarnishing the Quills’ reputation when her
aunt attempted to arrange introductions.
Finally, during a brief moment of relaxation, Esther sipped orange juice when an attractive server
approached her. “Ms. Quill, your son is in trouble!”

The server replied, “He was pushed into the pool. Please come with me….”
“Of course.”

to the hotel’s back garden
The garden appeared deserted, sending a sense of foreboding through Esther.
“Is my son really in trouble?”
The server smiled and gestured toward a room, whispering, “Yes, he’s in that room.”
Esther trusted the server and ascended the steps, gently pushing the door open and stepping inside.
“Felix…
“Feli-”
Suddenly, a cold hand covered Esther’s mouth from behind, while another hand gripped her waist
tightly, like heated iron.
This abrupt turn of events terrified her. She turned her head, tears of despair filling her eyes as she saw
the face of the person responsible.
