Esther doubted Logan’s words, prompting her to grab her phone and open the camera.
“Why have you been staring at me?” she questioned.
Logan chuckled as he stood up. “You’re good-looking.”
Esther was rendered speechless. If he didn’t want to answer, staying silent would have sufficed. Why bother with a
false statement to appease her?
“While danger hasn’t arrived yet, you should enjoy the peace now,” Logan advised.

“It would be even better if there were some snacks,” she commented.

Observing the pile of snacks delivered, Esther sincerely praised, “Logan, your future girlfriend is very lucky.”
It was a casual compliment, but Logan took note.

now.
Everyone knew Bradley’s ex-wife had died in a car accident, falling into the sea. Thus, when Bradley established
“Esther Corp.”, countless naive netizens proclaimed their renewed belief in love.
Kevin read the comments, pondering if these netizens had memories as short as a fish’s. If it weren’t for Bradley
relentlessly pursuing Esther, how would her car have fallen off a cliff, leading to her death? What nonsense were
these ignorant netizens spouting about believing in love again?
Kevin sneered, thinking that if Bradley treated them the way he did Esther, they wouldn’t be so quick to profess
their belief in love.
He then received a call from his medical school classmate.
“Hello, it’s me. Kevin, did Bradley’s wife, Esther, really die?”
“It’s true,” Kevin muttered. The fiery scene from that night replayed in his mind—the burning flames turning the
night sky orange. “Why are you asking?”
“Our hospital just received a kidney disease patient named Esther Quill, and she looks exactly like that Esther Quill.”
Kevin’s heart pounded as he sprang up, his voice trembling. “R-Really?”
“Why would I lie to you?”
“I’m coming to see you right now.”

Four hours later, Kevin stood at the door of Esther’s hospital room. Before arriving, he had consulted his colleague,
leaving him more puzzled after reviewing Esther’s medical records.

“Come in.”
Kevin opened the door, and Esther, lying on the hospital bed, looked toward him.
The moment Esther’s face met Kevin’s eyes, he felt his legs go weak. A huge sense of joy filled his inner being.
The joy of finding what had been lost overwhelmed his mind.
“Esther, it’s great! You’re still alive!” Kevin exclaimed.
