Jasperâs words instantly ignited Bradleyâs heart with flames of anger! The fiery anger consumed all his rationality. He to ok a step forward and firmly grabbed Jasperâs collar, arrogantly saying, âJasper, Esther is mine. Unless I donât want her, no one, including you, can touch her even a bit.â
Jasper sneered coldly. âHave you lost your mind? Esther is still unconscious. If she wakes up, the first t hing she will do is distance herself from youâ¦â
âJasper Searleâ¦â Bradley clenched his fist and fiercely swung it toward Jasperâs face.
Jasper caught Bradleyâs fist with his hand, tauntingly inviting, âIf you want to fight, we can meet at the b oxing gym. This is a hospital ward, not a place for fighting.â
Bradley slowly released his grip on Jasperâs collar and took a step back. A glimpse of a chilling glow flashed in his dark eyes.
âJasper, you can leave now,â said Bradley.
Jasper not only did not leave but also opened the cake box in his hand. There was a square tiramisu ca ke inside that was exquisitely made and looked appealing.
âBradley, you keep saying that Esther is your wife, but do you really know her?
âDo you know her preferences? Do you know her favorite food?
âDo you know her favorite color? Do you know what she enjoys doing the most?
âNo, you donât know anything. Do you think that having a marriage certificate makes you and her an inv incible couple?
âNo!â Jasper looked at Bradley and spoke each word slowly. â Bradley, from the moment you forcibly to ok Esther away to donate bone marrow to Felix, there could only be deepâ
seated enmity between you two! You and her, for the rest of your lives, can only be enemies -
never lovers, never husband and wife.â
Bradleyâs fists clenched tightly, his expression fierce, and a chilling and sinister aura surged in his eyes.
âThe reason you stopped me from seeing her is nothing more than your pride. You want Esther to rema in forever asleep.â Jasper looked at Esther on the hospital bed with deep affection, softly murmuring, âUnlike you, I donât want to have Esther. I support and want her to be happy. I hope she can wake up and have a regular womanâs happiness.â
Jasper spoke with a soft voice. âEven if the man who brings her happiness is not me, Iâll accept it willing ly.â
Bradley looked at Jasperâs profile. Memories of everything Jasper had done for Esther over the years r ushed back to his mind, and a hint of jealousy surged in his heart. He sneered and mocked him. âJaspe r, no matter how selfless you sound, you canât hide your despicable act of coveting someone elseâs wife .â
Jasper clapped his hands upon hearing that.
âBradley, youâre right. I do covet your wife. But so what? I never tried to destroy your marriage. I guarded her silently from behind.â
Jasperâs deep eyes seemed to ripple like a deep Tapter go blue sea. âAnd you? Even though sheâs your wife, youâre the man whoâs hurt her the most in this world, Bradley. In her heart, youâll forever be the killer of her daughter. Your hands. are stained with your daug hterâs blood!â
Bradleyâs expression froze, and a tinge of regret welled up in his eyes.
Yes. It was he who had personally tied Esther to the operating theater.
However, he had no other choice at that time for Felixâs life.
He truly did not know that Tinkerbell was their daughter. If he had known, he would never have done itâ
never.
âThis is Estherâs favorite cake. Do you know what message this cake carries?â Jasperâs eyes welled up with tears, filled with extreme sorrow. âThe meaning of tiramisu is âtake me awayâ.â
Bradley suddenly recalled that there was always such a dessert on the dining table and in the fridge at t he Warners. It was just that he did not like that type of dessert.
