After discovering that even Bradley, who had been in the dark about the children, still used them as a threat against
Esther, everyone’s attitude toward him turned overwhelmingly negative.
To ensure Esther’s safety, Oliver hired retired mercenaries as her bodyguards. Each of these mercenaries
possessed remarkable skills, making it impossible for Bradley, despite his proficiency, to gain an advantage against
these battle-hardened individuals.
Ever since Oliver learned about Esther’s situation from Agatha, he put every effort into restoring her health. He
spared no expense in finding valuable medicine that could aid in her recovery.
“Esther.”
Esther gazed at Oliver with slightly teary eyes and softly called, “Uncle Oliver.”

Bewildered, Esther took the photograph and asked, “Uncle Oliver, what’s in this picture?”
“It’s your mother and father.” Oliver sincerely apologized, “Esther, I’m sorry for not protecting you well and
allowing Bradley to abduct you, resulting in such severe injuries.”
“It’s not your fault. You all did your best and couldn’t have known that Bradley would…”
In truth, no one could have foreseen that Bradley would resort to using their daughters to threaten Esther.
“Esther, while investigating Richard, I uncovered your father’s true identity.” Oliver handed over an envelope. “This
contains Richard’s statement and information from those years. Your father was a courageous undercover DEA
agent.
“Thirty years ago, he played a vital role in dismantling a criminal gang through an undercover operation, saving
countless families. He received commendations for this, and your father was friends with Richard. He just never
suspected that Richard had been corrupted by drug trafficking and had joined their ranks.
“When your health improves a bit, I’ll take you to meet Richard. He can tell you more about your father.”
Esther gazed at the photo of her parents and felt an indescribable heartache. “So… my father…”
Oliver shook his head. “According to the case files, your parents were believed to have perished in a massive fire as
retaliation from drug dealers. But I don’t know the actual truth. Nevertheless, I have a hunch that your mother
might still be alive.”
Esther asked with astonishment in her eyes, “Do you really think so?”

Oliver took a deep breath and instilled a glimmer of hope into the crestfallen Esther. “I’m currently trying to locate
the person responsible for your mother’s death certificate back then. Esther, trust me. I will soon find evidence of
her being alive.”
“Uncle Oliver, but if my mother is alive, why… Why hasn’t she visited me all this time?”
She yearned to be comforted by her mother, just like Liliane. She wished for a mother to confide in whenever she
felt wronged. She longed to experience the care and love of a mother.
“Esther, I understand my sister.” Oliver handed a tissue to Esther and empathetically said, “She kept your birth and
everything about you a secret. She likely feared that someone on our side might discover you, putting you in
danger. Just as you’re planning everything for Felix now, she must have done many things for you back then.”
As Oliver spoke, his phone suddenly rang.
“What? You say you have news about my sister?”
