Chapter 239
Esther and Felix were startled by the voices outside. Finally. Finally, someone had come to rescue
them!
“Mommy, is Daddy coming to save us?” Felix asked innocently.
“Yes, he is. Daddy is here,” Esther replied, tears of joy streaming down her face.
Considering the presence of Bradley’s wife and son on the yacht and the unknown situation inside, the
rescue team on Bradley’s side refrained from launching a direct assault. They relied primarily on verbal
communication.
“We can’t launch a direct attack?” Bradley asked the chief commander beside him.
The chief commander responded, “Mr. Warner, the criminals might become desperate and
unpredictable in such situations. If we…”

deck.
Anyone observant could immediately see that the two men in black were each holding a pistol aimed at
the back of Esther’s and Felix’s heads.
Felix, always a brave little boy, burst into tears as soon as he saw Bradley. “Daddy-
The man with the severed hand fiercely struck Felix’s head with the gun muzzle, causing the boy to
sway. “Shut up!”
The other man, aiming his gun at Esther, surveyed Bradley, the boats surrounding them closely and the
helicopter hovering above. He knew that escaping at this point was utterly impossible.
“Mr. Warner, we were instructed by Shane Hoyer to kidnap your wife and son. There’s a cause for
every injustice, and we were just following orders. If you want revenge, it’s not us you should go after.”
The man with the severed hand, observing the murderous expression on Bradley’s face, smirked
mockingly and asked, “Who will you choose, your wife or your son?”
“What are you doing?”

The sudden actions of the man with the severed hand sent a chill down Esther’s spine. She looked at
Bradley in the distance and urged, “Bradley, what are you waiting for? Choose our son!”
Bradley gazed at Esther, then at Felix, and said indifferently, “I choose Esther!”
As soon as Bradley spoke, the man with the severed hand kicked Felix hard with his foot. Almost no
one anticipated his sudden attack, and Felix was sent into the sea.
Due to Felix’s high fever, Esther, who had been closely watching him, also jumped into the sea the

The two men in black on the deck put down their guns and surrendered.
“Are you crazy?”
“Wasn’t it thrilling?”
Some of the rescue personnel also jumped into the sea to save them.
Esther continued searching for Felix in the water.
However, Felix disappeared without a trace once he fell into the sea.
Bradley tightly embraced Esther and forcefully pulled her out of the water.
“You go ashore first. I’ll find Felix!”
Esther’s face turned pale and purple from the cold water. She slapped Bradley hard across his face.
“Bradley, that’s Felix! Our son!”
Esther never expected Bradley to abandon Felix! She couldn’t comprehend the psychological damage
that choice would inflict on their son.
