Chapter 665


    The Quills, Fosters, and Lockwoods had united, making the Pendletons an easy target.


    The Quills always prepared thoroughly before going to war. They had the evidence to use Richard


    and Chadwick, and Selene''s assistance made their task even easier.


    Who could have predicted that Chadwick would be captured so suddenly?


    Liora had always relied on Richard''s protection and cried bitterly.


    Liora''s crying stressed out Mandy.


    The Quills were methodical in their actions.


    The wedding was originally a trap targeting the Pendletons, and with Selene managing their affairs, the


    Pendletons were in turmoil.


    The Quills promptly settled all payments with the weddingpany.


    Marcus handled the Pendletons'' legal matters while Oliver took control of their businesses.


    The two brothers worked seamlessly together, with unstoppable momentum.


    Meanwhile, Sadie used the videos provided by Selene to track down Bradley''s whereabouts and find


    Esther.


    Bradley hadn''t deliberately hidden his location, so Sadie managed to trace his departure from Capitus


    on a private ne.


    As for his exact destination, it was challenging for someone like Sadie to discover. Thus, she shared


    the information she had gathered with Oliver.


    -


    On a small ind in Southeast Varnusia.


    Bradley observed the wedding through surveince.


    He ced his ss of red wine on the crystal coffin''s lid.


    Esther''s delicate fingers oozed fresh blood. She had learned about the Quills'' sessful n through

    a small crack.


    At that moment, she felt fortunate not to have thwarted their efforts. How could she face them if she


    had?


    The Quills had treated her well, but she had repeatedly hindered them.


    "Bradley!" Esther weakly leaned against the crystal coffin wall and looked up at him. "What''s your


    n?"


    The Pendletons had fallen, and the Quills'' crisis had been resolved.


    Esther finally wondered why Bradley had done all this.


    Bradley picked up the ss of red wine and let it flow down through the crack onto Esther''s face.


    The wine removed Esther''s makeup, revealing her beautiful features.


    "Bradley! Are you insane?" Esther managed to say through gritted teeth.


    Bradley smirked cruelly. "This crystal coffin was meant for me, but now it''s yours."


    Esther''s heart sank. "What do you mean? Are you going to kill me?"


    Bradley smiled sinisterly. "Killing is illegal."


    Esther angrily retorted, "Imprisonment is illegal too."


    "Is it?" Bradley sneered. "Esther, thews you know don''t apply here. Understand?"


    Esther understood the meaning behind Bradley''s words and asked shrewdly, "Aren''t we in Capitus?"


    Bradley didn''t deny it and raised an eyebrow. "Not anymore."


    "Bradley! Felix is waiting for me at Grandma Agatha''s ce!"


    When Sadie picked her up yesterday, she had promised to return safely. Before leaving the clinic, she


    assured Felix, Sunshine, and Jacob that she would only be gone for a few days and they should listen


    to Agatha obediently.
