Kevin observed as Bradley made threatening remarks and sarcastically retorted, “What are you going to do, huh?
Plan on letting Esther die right in front of Felix?
“Bradley, do you even understand how you got to this point? It’s because you never treated the woman who gave
birth to your children like a real person. You’ve never shown Esther the respect she deserves!”
“Very well, Kevin!” Bradley’s fist slammed onto Kevin’s desk with a heavy thud. “You want to oppose me too?”
Kevin shook his head and calmly replied, “No, I’m not opposing you. I stand on the side of justice.”
Bradley turned away indifferently, walked to the office door, and glanced back at Kevin to declare, “You’re fired!”
Kevin nonchalantly shrugged, removed the work badge hanging around his neck, and placed it on the desk.
“Bradley, working with heartless people like you made me feel like I was aiding a tyrant. Goodbye.”

After hanging up, Oliver turned to Gabriel and said, “Mr. Sinclair, please continue.”
Gabriel handed over two cards he had found at the scene of the car accident and the fire that had involved Faye
previously.
“This is the card I found at the scene of the car accident.
“This is the card from back then.
“The front of both cards features poppy flowers as the main pattern, but the new one is signed ‘X’.”
Oliver carefully examined these two cards and asked, “Mr. Sinclair, what does this mean?”
“I suspect that ‘X’ represents the drug traffickers,” Gabriel stated, his gaze darkening. “I have a feeling that the

scheme.”
“Mr. Sinclair, why do you say that?”
“I have someone undercover by Richard’s side. It seems someone is pressuring him to hand over something. I don’t
know what it is, but he hasn’t given it up yet. He’s keeping it as a lifeline.
“Oliver, what I’m unsure of now is whether this car accident was aimed at me or Esther.
“If it’s targeting Esther, then the fact that Cyrus was a DEA agent can’t remain a secret. The drug traffickers from
back then will undoubtedly seek revenge. But if that’s the case, when was Esther’s identity exposed? It’s a puzzle,
and all these mysteries need to be unraveled!”
Oliver pondered for a moment and decided to inform Gabriel that Bradley had abducted Esther.

“Hold on, I’ll make a call!” Gabriel seethed. “It’s me. There’s a disc on the third bookshelf in my study, on the fourth
section from left to right. Bring it to me!”
That young Bradley! He had promised to treat Esther well when he was a child. How did he grow up to be so
unfeeling?
“Let’s go. We need to rescue that girl.”
Oliver also made a call.
