Chapter 583
Jasper positioned himself in front of Esther, shielding her from Chadwick’s hostile and mocking gaze. Mr. Pendleton,
I don’t understand your history with Bradley, but putting a woman in such a difficult position is quite rude.”
Chadwick laughed upon hearing Jasper’s words. “Who are you?”
Given Chadwick’s high status, it was unlikely he knew Jasper.
Jasper regained his composure and glanced at the anxious Esther. “I’m Jasper Searle, Esther’s friend.”
Chadwick chuckled. “You’re Esther’s admirer!”
Esther stepped forward, facing Chadwick’s mocking stare. “Mr. Pendleton, Jasper is my best friend. You can’t say
that about him.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChadwick sneered. “Are you naive? Nowadays, there’s no such thing as a purely platonic friendship
between a man and a woman. Jasper gave up everything for you because he likes you! Do you think he has nothing
better to do?”
“Mr. Pendleton, Esther and I are just friends,” Jasper insisted. “I did confess my feelings once, but she turned me
down. We agreed to remain friends. You don’t need to interfere. Esther, let’s go.”
While defending Esther, Jasper’s eyes showed sympathy. He couldn’t stand to see Chadwick using Bradley’s life to
threaten her.
He escorted Esther back to the car, started the engine, and prepared to drive away.
“Mr. Pendleton, please move your car.”
Chadwick and Jasper faced off in silence.
Chadwick sighed and looked at Esther in the passenger seat. He spoke calmly. “Esther, I’ll be waiting for you here.”
With that, he moved his car to clear the way.
Jasper drove away.
Esther glanced at Chadwick’s car in the rearview mirror, a sense of unease creeping over her.
“Esther, don’t let Mr. Pendleton’s words bother you,” Jasper said. “We can find another suitable liver donor. We’re
not relying solely on Mandy’s liver.”
However, Esther’s uneasiness grew as she thought of Bradley in the hospital. Could they really find another suitable
liver for him?
Jasper and Esther arrived at the hospital. Kevin could tell from their return Esther hadn’t persuaded Mandy to
donate her liver.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Esther, Bradley’s condition has temporarily stabilized. Don’t worry too much. I’ve already initiated a search for
another suitable liver.”
Esther’s heartache was evident as she looked at Bradley’s pale face. She couldn’t bear to see him so weak.
Meanwhile, Jasper pondered how Bradley and Esther, on the verge of severing ties, had ended up in this situation
again.
“Kevin, please perform a compatibility test on me,” Jasper requested.
Kevin was aware of Jasper’s long-standing affection for Esther. He hadn’t expected Jasper to make such a sacrifice
for her.
“Jasper, have you thought this through?”
Jasper looked at Esther’s worried face and replied with determination, “I don’t want her to be threatened by
anyone.”
Kevin instantly deduced that Esther must have encountered Chadwick and that he used the liver donation as a
threat against her again.
