Since Esther fainted, the psychologist could not conduct a psychological assessment of her right away.
However, as a woman, she had eyes and could see the fresh red marks on Estherâs arms.
In order to better treat Esther, the psychologist had also looked into the relationship between Esther and Bradley last night. After the research, the psychologist believed that the person responsible for causing Estherâs severe psychological illness was none other than Bradley himself. This man had pushed Esther step by step into an irreparable abyss.
âMr. Warner, werenât you⦠fine with each other?â Clark and Felix, having seen them intimate on the desk, had assumed they had already made up after their fight.
Bradley glanced at Melinda, his voice cold as he said, âTake Felix down to the garden.â
Felix refused to leave, seeing Esther, who was on the verge of death. He held her hand tightly and asserted himself, âIâm not going anywhere.â
Clark doted on Felix and indulged him even more. However, he knew that Bradley had something to say that he did not want Felix to hear. He took out a pair of red Bluetooth earphones and put them on Felix, playing some music. âOkay, heâll behave.â
Felix stared with worry, endless concern filling his gaze.
Without needing instructions from Bradley, Melinda left the hospital room.
âEsther discovered the video from five years ago,â explained Bradley.
Clark furrowed his brow and coldly said, âMr. Bradley, Esther didnât admit that the person in the video was her five years ago. Even Mr. Thomas found new evidence back then. That was whyâ¦â
Bradleyâs eyes flickered with weariness. âThe woman in the video is indeed not her.â
Five years ago, Al face-swapping technology was not as mature as it was now, and very few people were aware of it. At that time, due to Estherâs betrayal and his wounded pride, Bradley had not carefully verified each frame of the video. As a result, it triggered a series of chain reactions.
Clark looked at Bradley in astonishment and asked, âMr. Bradley, when did you realize it?â
Bradley hoarsely replied, âJust now.â
Clarkâs gaze fell on Estherâs face, and he could not help but feel a pang of heartache. âMr. Bradley, if only you had trusted Madam a little more and listened to her explanation, many things that followed would not have happened.â
Back then, Bradley was furious after seeing the video and even forcibly took Esther to the hospital, wanting her to terminate the pregnancy. Thomas had desperately sought the truth to prevent Bradley from doing such a thing. Unfortunately, he was met with a car crash before the truth was revealed.
âClark!â
Clark mournfully said, âFrom beginning to end, Mr. Thomas had always believed in Esther, believed that she wouldnât betray you. Esther also continuously denied the authenticity of the video. Even when you personally sent her to prison, she still didnât admit that the woman in the video was her or that she pulled the oxygen mask herself.
âMr. Bradley, have you ever considered that maybe everything that happened wasnât really done by her?â
As the psychologist listened to this shocking revelation, she could not help but feel that the world of the wealthy was truly treacherous. Esther, especially the young and pretty Esther- why did she have to trap herself in this mess when she could have done something else? It was truly⦠the folly of love.
Bradley was unwilling to admit that all the events that happened back then were the bitter fruits of his own arrogance. âClark, right now, itâs just that the woman in this video is not her. But she did pull off my grandfatherâs oxygen mask herself!â
