Female Novel
Chapter 805
Kevin once wondered if Bradley loved Esther but was unaware of his feelings. However, he nowrealized that Bradley couldn’t possibly love her. A man who truly loved a woman would never act thatway. Even young children, in their innocence, knew to share their feelings and treat the person theycared about kindly.
Kevin found it hard to believe that someone as intelligent as Bradley could be in love and not know it.
“Dr. Slade, Bradley does love Esther,” Mandy said, trying to hurt Bradley. “He’s kept everything relatedto Esther in the storage room.”
Mockingly, Kevin asked, “Ms. Pendleton, are you certain it was him?”
Kevin thought that the only person in Warner Manor who could have treated Esther kindly afterThomas’ death was Clark. At that time, he didn’t yet know that Esther had saved him. He had beendisdainful of her, just like Bradley, thinking she had made foolish choices.
However, once he discovered the truth, he felt remorse for his earlier misconceptions and wanted tomake amends for how he had treated her.
He couldn’t understand why, even after learning that Esther had nothing to do with the events from fiveyears ago, Bradley hadn’t thought to make amends or apologize to her. Instead, he had committed onecrime after another.
“Dr. Slade, if it wasn’t him, then who could it be?”
“It’s probably Clark,” Kevin replied.
Mandy hesitated, feigning ignorance as she looked at Bradley’s pale face. “Bradley, do you loveEsther?”
“No!” Bradley gazed at the torn wedding photo with a distant demeanor that kept others at bay. “I don’tlove Esther.”
Kevin casually remarked, “You’re right. If you loved her, she would have felt disgusted in her afterlife.Bradley, take care.”
Kevin really didn’t want to see Bradley. Whenever he saw him, he thought of that secret room and thecrystal casket. He remembered how Bradley had violently rammed into Esther’s car.
As an ordinary person, he couldn’t understand what was going on in Bradley’s mind to have done suchawful things to a delicate woman.
If Esther had genuinely betrayed him and hurt Thomas five years ago, Kevin would have understoodBradley’s actions. They would have been driven by hatred. Now that the truth was out, Bradley’sactions were beyond his comprehension.
That’s right. As an average person, how could he understand a man with a mind as abnormal asBradley’s?
“Kevin!” Bradley stopped Kevin as he was leaving. “Tell the Quills to give Felix back!”novelbin
Kevin stood at the door and asked coldly, “Felix doesn’t know about Esther’s death yet. Do you want tobe the one to tell your son how his mother died because of your actions? Or do you think his traumaisn’t the worst thing, and you want to ruin his life?”
Mandy gently told Kevin, “Dr. Slade, you’ve misunderstood Bradley. He’s just in despair over Esther’sdeath. He needs something to hold on to! I believe Felix will be that anchor for him.”
“Let him find a way to cope,” Kevin replied before leaving. He couldn’t help but wonder why Bradleydidn’t just end it all.
