Esther’s eyes widened in surprise. It appeared she hadn’t heard clearly. She asked in a trembling voice, “What did
you say?”
Bradley gently nibbled on Esther’s ear, his voice intimate, like a lover’s. “Esther, should it be an accident? Or…”
An accident? For some reason, when Esther heard the word “accident,” the first thing that came to her mind was
Thomas’ accident.
“Bradley! What do you want exactly?” Esther asked, feeling helpless.
Bradley’s smile turned wickedly sardonic. “Esther, tell me, what can I do to ensure that a man who desires my
woman will never think of coveting her again?”

Esther knew she shouldn’t provoke Bradley at a time like this, but she couldn’t control herself. She turned around in
the confined space of the crystal coffin, locking eyes with Bradley’s intense gaze.
“The court has already finalized our divorce.”
A murderous glint appeared in Bradley’s eyes. “Esther, I told you, this game you started will end with me.”
Tears of despair welled up in Esther’s beautiful eyes. “Bradley, if you hate me so much… why don’t you just kill
me?”
If she were dead, everything would come to an end.
“I want you to long for life but be unable to find death!” Bradley revealed.
Suddenly, Esther couldn’t contain herself any longer and bit into Bradley’s neck.
Crimson blood flowed from his wound, trickling down her neck like a small stream.
Bradley remained unafraid and even laughed somewhat maniacally. “What? Reluctant to kill your husband?”
Bradley pinched Esther’s chin, his cool fingers caressing the blood on Esther’s lips.
In anguish, Esther asked, “Bradley, what… What do you want?”
“Guess!” Bradley smirked and kissed her.
He had become the master of Esther’s life.
He wanted her to live.
He wanted her to die.
He wanted her to be his captive forever.

It wasn’t clear how much time had passed when Bradley reluctantly released Esther. He seemed addicted to her.
He gently brushed away the stray hair on Esther’s cheek, his touch affectionate. Gradually, he fell asleep with
Esther in his arms.
It wasn’t until the sound of a servant entering with breakfast woke Bradley that he slowly got up. He pressed a
remote control, closed the coffin lid, and instructed the servant, “Take good care of her while I’m away.”
“Yes, Mr. Warner.”
Bradley gazed at the sleeping Esther for a moment. She was only this docile and charming when she was asleep.
‘Esther, the Quills will never be able to take you away from me again, just like last time.’

Unlike Liora’s tearful cries, Mandy had a good night’s sleep. She didn’t know how long she would have the
opportunity to sleep this well. Since she had the chance, she naturally wanted to seize it.
