My Husband Wants Me Dead novel (Esther and Bradley)

Chapter 790

Jasper walked mechanically, got to the burned body, and knelt heavily. He reached out his hand, but as soon as his

finger brushed the body, he pulled back like it shocked him.

“Esther! I’m so sorry!

“This is all my fault! I promised to keep you safe, but I let you down!

“Esther, I… I…” Jasper’s hands trembled as he tried to hold it. “I’ll take you back.”

Bradley seized Jasper by the collar, his voice filled with threat. “Jasper, you can’t touch her!”

“Can’t? Bradley, what gives you the right to stop me?”

Bradley couldn’t believe this burned body was Esther, but he wouldn’t let Jasper near her, even if she was just a

body.

“Esther is my wife,” Bradley declared for all to hear, which made Jasper and Kevin laugh.

Jasper turned to Bradley and asked, “If she’s your wife, where’s the marriage certificate?

“You claim Esther is your wife, but did you ever treat her like one? Not even for a day, not even for an hour!

“Ask everyone here. Ask the firefighters, the police, the doctors. Ask them how they treat their wives.

“Which of them would lock up their wives like you did? You falsely accused her and sent her to prison for five years!

“She spent the best five years of her life in prison! Did you know she had one boy and two girls there? When you

used her kids against her, did you see her as your wife?

“When you pushed her into a corner again and again, did you think of her as your wife?

“The law cleared her name, but did you ever apologize for sending her to prison five years ago?

“Bradley, Esther divorced you. She’d rather die than have anything to do with you!

“Don’t ever say she’s your wife. You don’t deserve it! You shouldn’t even be at her funeral, and you shouldn’t shed a

tear for her! Your disgusting, self-righteous love will only sully her journey to the afterlife!”

With these words, Jasper continued kneeling and cautiously attempted to lift it.

“Esther, don’t be afraid. It’s me. I’ve come to take you home.”

Just as Jasper’s hands were about to lift the charred body, Bradley violently kicked him away. “I won’t allow it!”

The headlights from numerous vehicles illuminated Bradley, and his eyes blazed with possessive fury. He shielded

Esther’s body and told Jasper, “Esther is mine in life and in death. Even if she’s just a body…”

Bradley looked at the charred body with a trace of pain in his eyes.

“She can only be my wife.”
