My Husband Wants Me Dead novel (Esther and Bradley)

Chapter 698

As a result, he secretly had his son with Liora to replace Selene’s child. What was worse, he heartlessly abandoned

Selene’s child at an orphanage. Such a cruel and selfish man was now facing the consequences in prison.

“You can’t say that about him!” Liora rushed to his defense.

Mandy sternly retorted, “Did I say anything wrong? Do you know why we’ve been targeted so ruthlessly? It’s

because of the Cassell family’s retaliation. They want to ensure we can’t survive in Capitus!”

Liora, shocked and in tears, stammered, “H-How could Selene—”

Mandy snorted. “Why couldn’t she? If I were Selene, I would have been even more ruthless!”

“I need to tell Richard…” Liora seemed to have forgotten that Richard was now in jail, facing a future behind bars.

Mandy sneered. “Sure, take a plane back and complain to him. Tell him it’s all because of him that both of us are

suffering the consequences.”

Liora’s anger boiled over, and she slapped Mandy in the face. As soon as she realized what she had done, she

approached Mandy and said softly, “Mandy, I was wrong. I…”

Mandy pushed Liora away and headed downstairs. She stormed into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and

wrapped a towel around some ice to soothe her face. Her face had undergone plastic surgery, and she was usually

very cautious about preserving it. Liora had actually struck her.

Mandy’s heart burned with rage. It was never too late for payback. She needed to find an opportunity to retaliate

for that slap.

“Ms. Pendleton, let me help you,” Esther, trying to get closer to Mandy, approached and offered assistance.

Mandy couldn’t risk Esther finding out the truth about her face. She used the ice to soothe her face while

concealing it with her hair. “Thank you. There’s no need.”

Mandy felt extremely awkward and thought that Liora really wasn’t a qualified mother. She was unlike Leah, who

was always hesitant to harm her.

Even if Leah had done something wrong, it was for her sake! On the other hand, Liora hadn’t even noticed that her

own daughter had been switched. How could such a woman be fit to be a mother?

Meanwhile, Bradley had been sitting in the living room for quite some time. Esther hadn’t said a word to him except

for bringing him a plate of fruit.

However, as soon as Mandy appeared, Esther suddenly became attentive. He went to the kitchen and asked coldly,

“Do you have nothing better to do?”

Esther wanted to explain, but Bradley spoke with a raised eyebrow before she could. “Go clean the master

bedroom’s bathroom.”

“Alright,” Esther replied, thinking Bradley was trying to dismiss her so he could cozy up to Mandy. She then hurried

upstairs.

As Esther was cleaning the bathroom, she suddenly looked up and saw Bradley in the mirror. Shocked, she turned

around with a scream, holding the showerhead, and accidentally sprayed water all over Bradley.

Bradley advanced menacingly toward her, frightening her to beg for mercy. “I’m sorry, sir! I didn’t mean it!”

Bradley cornered her, his eyes filled with anger.

“S-Sir…”

Bradley pressed Esther’s head and kissed her forcefully.
