Billy considered himself fortunate to have sought Jasperâs help, as he would not have been able to come. up with so many ideas on his own.
Billy and Jasper quickly located Xara, who wore a bitter smile upon hearing the purpose of their visit.
âMr. Searle, Mr. Anstey, I am willing to help, but Mr. Warner may not allow me to see Esther.â
As a psychologist, Xara understood that Estherâs selective amnesia was not genuine, yet she chose to protect her.
Now that the truth was revealed, Bradley would undoubtedly direct his anger toward Xara. In Bradleyâs mind, she was not just an accomplice but also a conspirator.
âIs there no other solution?â Billy felt utterly powerless and desperately suggested, âShould we involve the police?â
Jasper gently shook his head and explained, âInvolving the police wonât help. Even if they intervene, Bradley can provide a convincing explanation. They are legally married, and our country values reconciliation over separation in such cases. The police cannot interfere in domestic affairs. âMoreover, Bradley can easily claim that Estherâs actions were a result of her inability to cope with Felixâs death, leading to self-harm or suicide. He would argue that he was acting in her best interest.â
Billy was frantic, feeling both anxious and furious, as he exclaimed, âNone of this will work! Are we just going to stand by and watch Estherâ¦â
âLose her freedom forever?
âBe tortured to death by Bradleyâ¦
âWait for Bradleyâs mercy to release her one day?â
âWhy donât we approach Anna?â Xara suggested, recalling Estherâs previous collaboration with Anna.
Lowering her voice, she said, âPerhaps Anna can try visiting her in person.â
Surprised, Billy asked, âWho is Anna?â
âAnna is a globally renowned fashion designer who recently had an exhibition hereâ¦â Jasper paused suddenly before exclaiming, âCould Esther be Q? The emerging designer who made a splash in the fashion world recently?â
Xara shook her head, uncertain. âI only know that Esther worked with Anna for some time, but I donât have all the details.â
âIn that case, let me try contacting Anna. At this point, we donât have any better options anyway.â
âLetâs give it a try. If it doesnât work, weâll come up with another plan.â
Meanwhile, Esther, who was at Warner Manor, had no idea that Jasper and the others were tirelessly working to rescue her. She lay there, feeling a sense of abandonment as if she had given up.
Kevin entered the room with a nurse and frowned upon seeing Estherâs scars and wounds.
âEsther, let the nurse apply some medicine to your wounds.â
Esther blinked and replied coldly, âNo need. I wonât die.
She had endured even worse injuries in prison and had survived, hadnât she?
âEsther, if your wounds.get infected, it can lead to sepsis. They may leave scars as well. Trust me. You saved my life. I wonât harm you.â
Esther mocked with a smirk, âSaved your life? Kevin, if thatâs true, why donât you let me go?â
âEsther, think about it. Bradley doesnât allow it. Even if I were to release you, you would be found. Why subject yourself to more suffering?â
Kevin didnât know Bradleyâs true intentions, but he knew that Bradley would never easily let Esther go.
