Chapter 729
Esther comprehended Xara's words and hesitated before replying, "I can't risk it."
She lacked the courage to gamble and place her trust in Bradley's methods. She held firm to her belief
that Bradley was a man capable of anything.
"Why won't you dare?" Xara scoffed, her confidence unwavering. "Esther, your circumstances are
different from mine back then. My situation spiraled because I had no support, but you're not alone.
You have the Quills and Dr. Foster. No matter how unhinged Bradley is, he can't escape the law
entirely. You've got people who care about you, who love you.
"Don't you want to live your life the right way? Most importantly, if you keep letting Bradley threaten
you, Felix's mental state will deteriorate. He's just a child. He shouldn't endure all of this."
Esther asked, "But what if Bradley actually harms my daughters?"
"Esther, if Bradley is willing to harm his own daughters, do you think there's any decency left in a man
like him? You need to find your own strength. Enough not to fear Bradley and keep him in check,
preventing him from doing as he pleases."
Xara comforted Esther with a pat on her shoulder and said, "Reflect on it."
After Xara departed, Esther was plagued by self-doubt.
Were her daughters truly in Bradley's hands? Could it be that Bradley was deceiving her? But why
would he manipulate her by using their daughters? After all, they were his own flesh and blood. What
was his motive?
A series of questions swirled in Esther's mind, rendering her trapped in a labyrinth, a maze of
uncertainty with no apparent escape.
In an attempt to divert her thoughts, Esther called Felix and Sunshine back to her side. They engaged
in playtime, bonding over a board game.
As time passed, their interest waned, and they switched to watching cartoons. Eventually, Sunshine
and Felix drifted off to sleep.
Esther gazed at her peacefully slumbering children and found her courage slowly welling up. She no
longer feared death but couldn't bear the thought of Felix and Sunshine growing up motherless. She
had once already tasted death. This time, she would battle for her children.
Determined, Esther retrieved her phone and dialed Jasper.
In her world, there were only two friends she could rely on—Xara and Jasper. Xara might be unfamiliar
with the local terrain, but Jasper possessed the connections she needed. She required Jasper's help to
dig into their shared past and uncover the truth.
If Shane had managed to rescue Leah and take Felix away from the prison hospital, then where had
her two daughters vanished to?

Half an hour later, Jasper appeared in Esther's hospital room, and her eyes couldn't believe what they
saw. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Jasper."
Jasper stood there in a sharp suit, his hair immaculately styled, as always. However, his entire aura
had undergone a great transformation. He clutched a sandalwood rosary, and as soon as he entered
the room, Esther sensed a gentle, soothing fragrance wafting in the air.
"Esther."
