Chapter 859


    "At the scene of the car ident?" Esther studied the card, pausing before asking, "Does this card


    suggest a connection between the people behind the car ident and the incident involving my


    father?"


    Gabriel said in a hushed tone, "I do have such suspicions, but Ick evidence to definitively link these


    two."


    "I''ll find the evidence."


    Esther focused on the card, the vividly blooming flower of sin fueling anger within her. Flowers of sin


    like this should vanish from the world forever.


    "When you pass the assessment and officially join, you''ll have ess to more evidence."


    Esther dered solemnly, "If there''s nothing else, I want to rest now."


    "Alright. I''ll send the time and location details for the assessment to your phone. Make sure not to be


    "Got it."


    Esther had spent the past few days with Logan, not seeing Felix, Sunshine, or Jacob for a while. With


    over ten hours of free time, she drove to Sanderson castle.


    Due to thete hour, the children were already asleep.


    After a shower, Esther quietly entered Felix''s bedroom.


    Felix and Sunshine, being young, didn''t have separate bedrooms like Jacob. They often slept wherever


    they were ying—sometimes in Felix''s room, other times in Sunshine''s, and asionally in Esther''s.


    Although Esther tiptoed carefully, not wanting to disturb the children''s rest, Felix opened his eyes when


    she sat beside him. He gazed at her in the night, his eyes as innocent as a fawn''s.


    Feeling a bit guilty, Esther gently touched Felix''s small face, saying, "Felix, sorry for waking you up."


    Felix didn''t speak—he just buried his head in Esther''s embrace, holding her tightly. Sniffing the familiar


    scent that was uniquely his mother''s on Esther, Felix felt incredibly secure and at ease.


    Esther stroked Felix''s hair, coaxing, "Did you have a bad dream?"


    Felix shook his head. He lifted his head from Esther''s embrace, looking at her. He hoped Esther would


    always be happy like this, never lying motionless in bed again.


    Felix took out his phone, his little fingers proficiently typing a message.


    Felix: [I hope you''re happy.]


    Esther ced her forehead gently against Felix''s and ruffled his hair with a smile. "Seeing Felix makes


    me very happy."


    Felix: [Go to sleep now. You have dark circles, not pretty.]


    "Felix, even if I have dark circles, they''re the prettiest."


    Recently, Esther hadn''t been sleeping well. She and Logan had to keep an eye on those people. Even


    though they had been taking turns sleeping, her sleep wasn''t sound, with lingering concerns.


    "Alright, I''ll sleep with Felix and Sunshine."


    Esther slept between Felix and Sunshine. Almost as soon as her head touched the pillow while feeling


    the incrediblyforting scent from the children, she fell into a deep sleep.


    Felix saw that Esther''s brows were still furrowed even when she slept.
