Chapter 218
Clark had been investigating the events from five years ago, but finding concrete evidence seemed
impossible due to the passage of time and the deliberate targeting of Esther back then. As the three-
month deadline agreed upon with Bradley approached, Clark’s progress had been.
minimal.
After careful consideration, Clark made the decision to expose Liliane’s true self at her wedding with
Bradley. Thomas had shown him kindness, and he couldn’t allow a malicious woman like Liliane to
marry Bradley or harm Felix.
With all the evidence prepared, Clark got into his car and drove toward the wedding venue. However,
his phone suddenly rang when he reached a crossroad just 500 meters away from the venue.

Surprised, Clark asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I just received a message from one of Shane’s lackeys. They’ve kidnapped Esther and Mr.
Felix…”
Clark slammed on the brakes and urgently inquired, “When did this happen?”
“I received the message recently as well,” the bald detective replied. “I’m heading to the lackey’s
location now. I’ll send you the details soon.”
Shane targeting Esther again like this was unexpected for Clark. Without much thought, he realized
that Shane was determined to obtain Esther’s heart.
As for Felix, they probably believed that once Liliane married Bradley, Felix would become expendable.
Killing Felix would eliminate any potential issues he could pose.
Ending the call, Clark tried to contact Bradley but received no answer. He sent him messages instead.
Clark: [Mr. Warner, you cannot marry Liliane.]
Clark: [Felix is your and Esther’s biological son. I have DNA test results for both of you!]
Clark: [Mr. Warner, something has happened to Mr. Felix. Reply to me immediately when you see this
message!]
After sending the messages, Clark turned his car around urgently to meet up with the bald detective.
The masked men threw Esther and Felix into a hospital filled with the scent of disinfectant. Esther’s
head hit the concrete floor hard, causing her pain.
“Ouch!” Esther winced but quickly shifted her focus to Felix, whom she quickly picked up.
“Felix.”
Felix remained motionless, and Esther carefully checked his breathing.

Thankfully, he was still breathing.
Esther let out a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to observe her surroundings, two men dressed in
black entered, carrying a bundle of zip ties.
“Sir, I have money, a lot of money. I can give it to you…’
One of the men grabbed Esther, who was attempting to bribe them and used the zip ties to bind her
hands and feet together.
Shane assigned this task, and if they dared to accept the money and release this mother and son, they
would find their bodies in the sea the next day.
These men knew how cruel and bloodthirsty Shane could be.
“I’d love to take your money, but I’d rather not be alive to spend it!’
