My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley)
Chapter 536

Chapter 536

The recent outcome revealed that the child was destined never to meet Bradley or Esther.

Sadie breathed a sigh of relief, wiping her tears away. She marched towards Bradley with intense anger in her eyes and accused him, "Bradley, you've taken your own child's life! Are you pleased with yourself?"

Bradley's eyes showed a glimmer of bewilderment. "My child? Mine?"

Sadie scoffed bitterly, her laughter filled with scorn. "You've personally ended your child's life. You're despicable! Prepare for life in prison!"

Sadie then dialed 911. "Hello, 911? I need to report a crime!"

Agatha cautiously spoke up. "Sadie, are you certain you want to escalate this situation?"

Sadie's eyes flared with anger as she clenched her teeth. "Dr. Foster, so many people have witnessed my cousin's humiliation. If I don't take a stand, how will she ever face them in the future?" Agatha sighed wearily, hoping her advice would have made Bradley understand Esther's past struggles more. Instead, he remained unyielding. Clearly, compassion had no place with certain individuals. "Bradley, Esther always wanted to keep this child."

Annoyed, Sadie pulled Agatha aside. "Dr. Foster, why bother talking to this scoundrel? He's an animal, not a human. If he had even a hint of humanity, he wouldn't have acted so recklessly on such an important day for my cousin!"

Today, the elite of Capitus had gathered at the Royal Palace Hotel for Esther. And Bradley had just....

Sadie took a deep breath, her eyes moist. "Dr. Foster, please keep a close eye on my cousin. I'll go check on Felix. I couldn't watch over him with all this chaos. He's just a child. I hope he's not frightened." The police arrived, promptly taking the blood-covered Bradley into custody for questioning

Chadwick was the top young heir of a prominent Capitus family. Bradley's brutal assault on him ensured that the Pendletons would spare no effort in seeking justice against him.

After Marcus and Oliver reviewed the security footage from the Royal Palace Hotel, they joined forces to confront the Pendletons.

Chadwick's attack on Esther deeply insulted the Quills, known for fiercely protecting their own. They wouldn't let this offense go unpunished. Anyone harming a Quill member should expect consequences. Tension grew, leaving all of Capitus on edge.

Capitus had four major families: the Pendletons, Quills, Fosters, and Lockwoods. A delicate balance had always existed among them. Chadwick's assault on Esther shattered this balance like a hammer through glass.

The Quills' retaliation was anticipated. The Pendletons and their allied smaller families fought to maintain their social standing.

Years ago, the Pendletons had crushed the Fosters to climb the social ladder, leading to Agatha's unfortunate imprisonment. Now, the Quills and Fosters united to battle the Pendletons. In just one day, cracks appeared in the once-solid Pendleton facade.

The Lockwoods, the weakest of the four major families, took the chance to secretly ally with the Quills, betraying the Pendletons.

Capitus teetered on the edge of a major power shift.

Esther regained consciousness but remained unaware of the unfolding drama. She felt a sharp pain in her abdomen and touched it gently, tears welling up in her eyes. "Grandma Foster, is my child still alive?" Agatha gazed into Esther's eyes, her own filled with sorrow. She stopped herself before speaking harshly. "What do you think?

甘

Esther caressed her abdomen again, her pain evident in her voice. "Grandma Foster, I... I couldn't save my child." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
