My Husband Wants Me Dead By Spring Sprout Chapter 91 Crystalline tears fell like a broken string of pearls, sliding off Estherâs porcelain face drop after drop.
Bradley stared at Esther with a mix of anger and frustration welling up inexplicably in his heart. He released his grip on her hand and forcefully held her jaw, coldly and cruelly questioning, âEsther Quill, what are you up to!?â
Esther widened her eyes, looking at Bradley with fear as tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
âIt hurts, Brad.â
A tear fell onto the back of Bradleyâs hand he used to squeeze Estherâs jaw. It felt like he had been spla shed with scalding oil, causing him to let go instantly. He looked at her with a gaze filled with scrutiny and confusion, observing the stark contrast between the current Esther and the one he knew before.
âMommy!â
Felix cautiously poked his head out from the doorway of the hospital room. When he saw Esther regain consciousness from her coma, he completely forgot that he was still hooked up to an IV, r ushed into her embrace, and called out in a sweet and adorable voice, âMommy, youâre awake?â
âIt is great that Mommy woke up!â
Esther reached out and hugged Felix, planting a loving kiss on his forehead. âWhy is my son so handso me?â
Bradley watched the interaction between Esther and Felix and felt as if his eyes were playing tricks on him.
What exactly was going on with these two people in front of him? Why did everything feel so eerie?
Bradley reached out to take Felix from Estherâs embrace. Felix, come here. Sheâs not your mother.â
âShe is, Daddyâ¦â Felix was overjoyed, completely forgetting Clarkâs reminder. He just wanted to live ha ppily ever after with his parentsâoh, and Pixie. The four of them would stay together forever.
Bradley did not want to stall with Felix, so he forcefully and dominantly attempted to snatch him away, b ut Esther refused to let go. She lowered her head and bit Bradleyâs hand hard.
âYouâre not allowed to take my son!â
The astute Felix gradually noticed that something was off with Esther. He poked his little head out from her embrace and gently said, âDaddy, call the doctor.â
Helpless, Bradley let go, and Esther held Felix even tighter as if afraid that the boy would vanish if she l et go.
Bradley rubbed his temples, feeling a headache, and pressed the call button.
The doctor arrived promptly in the hospital ward and looked at Bradley in confusion upon seeing Esther tightly clutching Felix.
What was going on?
Bradleyâs expression was gloomy and extremely indifferent as he said, âCheck her head.â
Esther looked pitifully at Bradley with her hands tightly wrapped around Felix.
The doctor noticed the IV needle in Felixâs hand and kindly suggested, âMaâam, let me examine you firs t, okay?â
Esther glanced at the doctor and then at Felix. Out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed that the blood had started flowing back into the IV needle on Felixâs hand and spoke softly. âPlease check on my son first.â
The doctor could only comply with Estherâs request and began examining Felixâs small hand.
âThe blood is flowing back a bit, but the needle hasnât come out of place. Itâs not a big deal,â the doctor reassured them but added a cautionary note, âMr. Felix, please try to remain still. If the needle gets disl odged, weâll have to administer another injection.â
âDoctor, please check on my mommy first.â
Felix sat obediently on the bed, not moving, as he watched Esther intently.
âMommy, let the doctor examine you.â
