Chapter 781
Esther's every word was like a knife through Bradley's heart.
He abruptly stood up and glanced at her coldly before exiting the secret room, leaving her alone.
Esther watched Bradley leave and huffed in frustration. She no longer understood his intentions and
had no intention of cooperating with him.
When she looked at his handsome face, there was no attraction, only disgust. She detested Bradley
and herself.

Mandy was preparing to go out when she noticed Bradley descending with a hostile air. "Bradley?"
Bradley saw Mandy with her purse and asked, "Where are you going?"
Mandy took out her phone and casually replied, "I received a call from my mother at the sanatorium. I
need to go there."
"I'm coming with you," Bradley insisted, leaving no room for discussion.
Mandy didn't understand why Bradley wanted to accompany her but didn't object. The driver was
already waiting, so she got into the car alongside Bradley.
Mandy put her phone away and enjoyed the scenery outside the window.
Meanwhile, Bradley was engrossed in his work, which had increased due to Oliver's attack.
As he worked diligently, Esther's words about Jasper echoed in his mind. Suddenly, he closed his tablet
in anger and turned toward Mandy.
"Mandy," he called out.
Mandy hesitated for a moment before looking at Bradley and asking softly, "Is there something I can
help you with?"
"Who is more handsome between me and Jasper?"
Mandy realized that Esther must have said something to spark a competitive streak in Bradley. She
replied without hesitation, "You're definitely the more handsome one."
Bradley's dark gaze softened slightly upon hearing her response. "For example?"
Mandy thought, 'What woman wouldn't say that Bradley is handsome unless they have some kind of
mental disorder and poor eyesight.'
"You're so handsome that there's no need for examples."
Mandy muttered inwardly, 'What's the use of being good-looking? You're sick!'
Fortunately, she hadn't developed deep feelings for Bradley. Otherwise, she would have shared the
same fate as Esther.
"You don't think Jasper is handsome?" Bradley asked.
Mandy pondered and said slowly, "I don't find Mr. Searle handsome. You're the most handsome, and
you're just like the dominating male leads in romantic novels."
"Dominating male leads?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Yes, the kind of male lead in romance novels that young girls adore," she elaborated.
As they conversed, they reached the sanatorium where Liora was staying. Mandy got out of the car
while Bradley remained seated.
Mandy stood outside the car and called out, "Bradley?"
Bradley said coldly, "We're heading back to the manor in half an hour."
"Alright."
Mandy walked into the sanatorium with her purse. She thought that even if Bradley was a dominating
male lead, he was also the kind found in abusive novels.
A normal man wouldn't treat Esther like that, would he? Did he really think he was cool acting like that?
"Mom."
