Chapter 766


    Bradley picked up his razor and began to shave his stubble.


    Suddenly, he halted and casually tossed the razor into the trash bin.


    Upon inspecting his reflection in the mirror, he discovered an unexined cut on his otherwise wless


    skin, with a thread of blood seeping from it.


    Did he love Esther? Had Kevin lost his mind due to excessive reading?


    It was inconceivable that Bradley had fallen in love with Esther!


    He turned his attention back to the concealed room housing the crystal coffin.


    Esther had already awakened inside the crystal coffin. Unlike her initial panic upon first finding herself


    trapped within it, she now felt certain that Bradley was responsible as she opened her eyes and saw


    the crystal confines.


    "You''re awake?" Bradley asked.


    Esther heard Bradley''s voice and slowly turned to look at him.


    "Kevin made a joke earlier." Bradley didn''t anticipate a response from Esther as he nonchntly


    stroked the coffin''s lid. He asked, "Interested in hearing the joke?"


    Esther merely gazed at Bradley without uttering a word or disying any reaction.


    Observing Esther''sposed demeanor, Bradley was ovee by an indescribable emotion.


    He pushed a button, and the crystal coffin''s lid lifted.


    Esther stayed in the same position, her hands gently folded over her abdomen. She made no attempt


    to sit up or escape as she knew it was futile.


    "Kevin imed that I love you," Bradley sarcastically remarked. "Don''t you find it amusing?"


    "You don''t love me." Esther remained collected, speaking slowly and deliberately. "You''re possessive.


    To you, I''m not a person. I''m an object to satisfy your physical desires. I''m no different from an


    intable doll."


    Hearing Esther''s words, Bradley reached into the coffin and gently twirled a lock of her hair. As the hair


    wrapped around his finger, he was reminded of how they had tied their hair together before their


    wedding night.


    Their wedding nner had mentioned a tribe''s tradition of binding their love forever. If binding their hair


    together was meant to ensure their love, why had they divorced?


    "Not bad. You understand your role quite well," Bradley remarked.


    Esther responded with a forced smile, a standard one showing her teeth, and replied like a robot,


    "Thank you for yourpliment."


    Bradley furrowed his brow as he observed Esther''s dispassionate demeanor. He continued to taunt her,


    "Since you''re so clear about your role, you should also know what you need to do now."

    Esther slowly rose from the crystal coffin, and as she did, Bradley finally noticed that her once vibrant


    eyes had lost their luster.
