Chapter 173
Esther’s face was streaked with tears, her silent words trapped within her as they dissolved into a
stream. of hot tears.
Seeing Esther cry like a helpless kitten, Bradley unintentionally laced his voice with indulgence. He
pulled out a tissue and gently wiped away her tears, playfully teasing, “You want a divorce? What about
our son?” With determination in her reddened eyes, Esther asserted, “I carried our son for ten months.
He belongs with me!”

“In your dreams!” Bradley swiped at Esther’s nose, his tone filled with fondness. “Our son belongs with
me.
“No…” Esther vehemently countered.
“In that case, don’t even think about divorcing me,” Bradley declared, tossing the tissue into the trash.
“If you want a divorce, I won’t let you have our son.”

heart?”
Xara, who had been silently observing, couldn’t bear the lovey-dovey banter any longer. She
interjected,” Can you two continue this later?”
Esther’s face instantly reddened like a tomato.
Maintaining his stoic expression, Bradley asked, “What do you want to say?”
“I suggest that you take a vacation,” Xara said, her tone indifferent.
“A vacation?” Esther exclaimed. “Why do we need a vacation?”
“You can take leave from the kindergarten,” Xara replied nonchalantly. “A vacation can reignite your
relationship. Love conquers all.”
Drawing from the psychological counseling Xara had provided, it was Bradley who had reignited
Esther’s will to live. Bradley was her youthful dream and her husband. If Bradley was willing to warm
Esther’s heart with love, even if she woke up from selective amnesia one day, she wouldn’t choose
death again.
Because… the person she loved was right there.
“I’ll consider it,” Esther replied.
Xara glanced at her watch, calmly stating, “Alright, I have something to attend to. I won’t keep you two
any longer. Apologies for the interruption.”
Esther held Bradley’s hand, and they left the room.
As she was about to depart, she cast a meaningful glance at Xara, seated on the single sofa. For some
inexplicable reason, Esther felt as though Xara had seen through every aspect of her yet willingly
cooperated. Why was that?
Bradley left the office with Esther, but his phone rang as soon as they stepped out. It was Leah’s
hurried and anxious voice on the other end. “Bradley, come to the hospital right now. Something
happened to Liliane.”
Disgusted, Bradley raised an eyebrow and looked at Esther. He ended the call without uttering a word.
Calmly, he informed Esther, “I need to take care of something. I have to leave for a moment.”

“That’s fine. I don’t have any plans either. I’ll wait for Dr. Sadler to finish her work, and then we can
have a
meal together”
“If you need anything just call me
“Okay”
Esther watched as Bradley departed and then found a bench in the hospital garden, where she

From upstairs, Xara noticed Esther in the garden and brought two cups of coffee before joining her

Esther arched an eyebrow with indifference and comected “You can call me Esther
“Esther Xara offered a faint smile and calmly remarked To be honest, I don’t like coffee No matter how
much sugar and milk you add it still cames a lingering erness that never fades away”
Esther nodded in agreement
