Chapter 528


    Esther appeared stunning from every angle-her photos emerged as masterpieces, no matter the


    perspective.


    Representing the Quills, Marcus thrust Esther into the public eye.


    “Thank you all for making time for Esther’s birthday bash amidst your busy schedules. Esther,


    everything before today was just the beginning. From this day forth, the world will revolve around you,


    like the sun, moon, and stars…”


    With Marcus’ influence, even a simple “Wee, Esther!” would earn a resounding apuse.


    Esther gracefully withstood everyone’s scrutiny.


    Certain families even considered arranging marriages between their distinguished heirs and Esther.


    Her previous marriage to Bradley didn’t matter to those seeking political advantages; they aimed to


    leverage the Quills’ support through Esther.


    After some pleasantries, Sadie urged Esther to take photos and yfully insisted on uploading them to


    social media.


    “Mommy, you look so beautiful today!”


    Esther’s joy was contagious, and Felix was impably dressed to match the asion.


    In his sharp suit, he exuded charm. His warm personality won over many guests, especially wealthy


    women who yearned for grandchildren from their married sons.


    “You look incredibly handsome today too!”


    ttered by Esther’s praise, Felix beamed and dered, “Mommy, I’ll be by your side-”


    Before Felix could finish his sentence, several young girls surrounded him, eager to y.


    “Nope, I’m a manly man, and I’m sticking with my mommy,” Felix firmly dered.


    The adorable girls then turned their charming gazes toward Esther. She reluctantly agreed and left


    Felix under Sadie’s watch.


    “Mommy, I can take care of myself. I don’t need Aunt Sadie.”


    However, Sadie still assumed responsibility for Felix.


    Watching Sadie take charge among the children, Esther couldn’t help but smile warmly. She cherished


    the Quills’ weing and friendly atmosphere, which didn’t judge her past in prison.


    Because of this, Esther politely handled the situation to avoid tarnishing the Quills’ reputation when her


    aunt attempted to arrange introductions.


    Finally, during a brief moment of rxation, Esther sipped orange juice when an attractive server


    approached her. “Ms. Quill, your son is in trouble!”


    Concerned, Esther asked, “What happened?”


    The server replied, “He was pushed into the pool. Pleasee with me….”

    “Of course.”


    Esther didn’t even have time to inform her aunt. Taking advantage of themotion, she quietly went


    to the hotel’s back garden


    The garden appeared deserted, sending a sense of foreboding through Esther.


    “Is my son really in trouble?”


    The server smiled and gestured toward a room, whispering, “Yes, he’s in that room.”


    Esther trusted the server and ascended the steps, gently pushing the door open and stepping inside.


    “Felix…


    “Feli-”


    Suddenly, a cold hand covered Esther’s mouth from behind, while another hand gripped her waist


    tightly, like heated iron.


    This abrupt turn of events terrified her. She turned her head, tears of despair filling her eyes as she saw


    the face of the person responsible.
