Chapter 290


    “Then give me birth control pills.”


    Esther used to yearn for an intimate rtionship with Bradley, but now, when his hands touched her


    skin, all she felt was disgust and resistance deep within her heart. Despite her strong aversion, her


    body instinctively submitted to him.


    “Esther, Felix had an ident. Bradley will need time to ept this fact. He might want to have another


    child with you. Since things have already happened, why don’t both of you let go of the past and look


    ahead? I believe Bradley’s attitude will change once you be pregnant.”


    Kevin’s words made Esther cover her face as she burst into wildughter. How absurd!


    Kevin imed she was his savior, yet he was urging her to obey Bradley and obediently bear a child for


    him. On what grounds? Why should she have this child?


    “Kevin, it’s highly questionable that you, as a doctor, would say such things. It makes me doubt whether


    Bradley paid for your Ph.D.”


    Kevin sighed helplessly and softly pleaded, “Esther, you and Felix have only been together for a short


    while, and already you find it difficult to ept Felix’s ident. Please try to see things from a different


    perspective. Consider Bradley’s feelings for Felix. Isn’t it natural for him to have difficulty epting it for


    now? Esther, don’t you love him? Can’t you think about it for his sake?”


    “Kevin, I don’t love him anymore.” Esther slowly raised her hand and looked at the bruises on her wrist


    with a disgusted expression. “Just the thought of him makes me nauseous.”


    Yes. She had fallen in love with him in her young and naive years like a moth drawn to a me. She


    always believed she had plenty of time to warm him up, to melt him. But little did she know it was all


    just a one-sided show.


    Kevin fell silent. He didn’t know how to persuade Esther and Bradley, both filled with resentment. It


    seemed there were countless unsolvable knots between them. Even if he were all-powerful, it would be


    futile in their case.


    “Esther, let the nurse properly apply medicine to your wounds.” Kevin signaled the nurse with his eyes.


    As a man, it would be inappropriate for him to stay in the room, so he quietly left, heading to the study


    where Bradley was staring at the surveince video of the bedroom.


    Bradley’s dark eyes shifted away from the surveince screen as he sneered. “She says I’m


    disgusting.”


    Why didn’t she say that when she willingly got into my bed back then?


    “Bradley, how did you and Esther end up like this?” Kevin weakly sat on the genuine leather sofa chair,


    torn between Bradley and Esther. “Esther didn’t betray you and even gave birth to your children. For


    the sake of the children, no matter how much resentment you have toward her-”


    “Kevin,” Bradley leaned back on the leather chair, exuding a domineering aura. His slender fingers


    interlocked together, his expression indifferent yet filled with indescribable ferocity. “She caused my


    grandfather’s death, and Felix had an ident because she wanted to leave with him.”


    “Bradley, five years ago, we all believed Esther betrayed you, but the truth proved otherwise,” Kevin’s


    temples throbbed rapidly as he spoke rationally and restrained himself. “Since there was no betrayal,

    the court video from five years ago could also be false.


    “Moreover, Esther has never admitted to what happened five years ago. I can’t think of any reason she


    would want to remove Grandpa Thomas’ oxygen mask. She had no motive. Bradley, what you’re doing


    to


    her is truly cruel.”
