Chapter 622
A flicker of regret crossed Mandy’s face as Bradley’s cold gaze met Esther’s concerned look. He calmly said, “You
saved me. There’s no need to apologize.”
Mandy and Bradley went to her hospital bed.
Esther desperately wanted to know how hurt Bradley was. Unfortunately, her legs felt heavy, as if made of lead,
making it nearly impossible to move.
The doctor and nurse changed Bradley’s bandages while Mandy watched, her eyes filled with worry. She thought, ‘I

“Mr. Warner needs rest and should stay in bed,” the doctor advised.
“Can I move to this hospital?” Bradley looked at Mandy and added softly, “There’s something important I need to
take care of here.”
The doctor checked the bed records before reluctantly saying, “I’m sorry, Mr. Warner, but we don’t have any

Mandy quickly suggested, “Could Mr. Warner stay in this room? We can arrange for another bed next door.”
Upon hearing Mandy’s proposal, Bradley’s eyes brightened. The doctor was aware of Mandy’s true identity, so he
agreed without hesitation. “Alright, we can do that for now.’
The hospital was a private facility known for its top-notch service.
Mandy’s belongings were moved to Esther’s room, and Bradley settled into what was originally Mandy’s bed.
Mandy entered Esther’s room with excitement. Pretending to be concerned, she asked, “Mr. Warner’s condition has
worsened. The doctor said he needs more rest. Would you mind sharing a room with me for a while, Mrs. Warner?”
Esther’s eyes were red from recent tears, which brought a sense of satisfaction to Mandy. She took pleasure in
Esther’s suffering and anticipated more moments of joy.
“I don’t mind,” Esther replied, her voice husky. “But please, stop calling me Mrs. Warner.”
Mandy pretended to be confused and continued. “You’re not officially Mr. Warner’s ex-wife yet, so technically, you
are Mrs. Warner.”

And I never will be.”
She was legally bound to Bradley but had never felt like his wife. So, she couldn’t rightfully consider herself Mrs.
Warner.
“So, what should I call you?” Mandy maintained her facade of sweetness. Internally, she relished seeing Esther and
Bradley in such a state. It made her eager to celebrate.
Mandy had always blamed her past failures on her naivety, but now she was sharper and

determined to exact revenge on Esther and Bradley.
“What should you call her?” Chadwick’s frosty voice interrupted. “Mandy, the term you’re looking for is ‘sister-in-
law’!”
