Chapter 595: Chapter 595

“Ok! I’ll go make the call!” Hudson stood up and walked out.

Elijah! Elijah! Esther smiled bitterly. He said he wouldn’t leave her, and it was bullshit. “Till death do us part” was a lie, baseless nonsense!

In important times, Hudson was still the most dependable person!

Hudson made the call and stood by the door. He noticed Esther’s blank stare as she stared out of the window. He stopped at the door and didn’t walk in.

This was how Esther usually was, just moments ago she was crying desolately. She would then smile brightly and relaxedly after she cried as if nothing had happened. Only when she was alone she would lick her wound. The wound in her heart hurt so bad it could probably suffocate her, but she still smiled. She looked out into the blue sky and smiled.

“Hudson, we should all live healthily and happily!” Suddenly, Esther turned around. She looked at Hudson who was standing by the door, “We must live happily!”

Hudson felt a twinge in his heart. He walked over while nodding, “Yes, live healthily and happily! Esther, you’re the best!”

But he noticed a hint of loneliness in her eyes, it hurt his heart.

***********

Esther didn’t come back.

Elijah got back in the night and noticed that the lights weren’t on. Esther wasn’t home.

She didn’t come back!

Where could she be?

Elijah didn’t call her that night. His heart was getting heavy, he couldn’t believe that she didn’t come back!

Elijah sat in the study, smoking all night. The room was filled with smoke and it was all smoggy in the room, yet he didn’t stop smoking.

Soon, the sun rose.

But Elijah’s heart was lifeless.

As if his heart was a field that was burned by a fire until only ashes could be seen, and no life could be seen...

Esther felt better after an IV drip.

She insisted on going to class on Thursday.

Elijah got a call, he was informed that Esther went to class.

He couldn’t help but go to her school as she was about to finish school.

Esther had classes together with Lena today. Lena noticed that Esther didn’t look too good, she asked out of concern, “What happened? You didn’t attend classes for 2 days in a row.”

“Well, I almost died!” Esther pursed her lips, “Food poisoning, I still feel very weak everywhere!”

“Ah, seriously. Be more careful next time, how can you be so careless?” Lena was concerned looking at Esther’s face which was as pale as a sheet.

“You don’t look good. How is it going with Elijah?”

“We’re in a middle of a fight!” said Esther bitterly.

“Esther...” As they walked out of the building, Hudson was waiting for Esther. He was standing in front of a Ferrari.

“Ah! Hudson’s here. Lena, Hudson can send you home! Let’s go!” Esther pulled her.

“No! I have my part-time job in the afternoon. I’m not going back right now!

“Then how about Oscar?”

“Our nanny recovered from her flu. She is helping me taking care of him, it’s no problem!”

“That’s great!” Esther nodded, “Lena, take care!”

“Yeah! You should get some more rest!”

They bid adieu like good friends. Esther walked towards Hudson.

In a car parked afar, Elijah’s face turned stone cold looking at Esther smiling all brightly. He couldn’t sleep all night, he was worried and he missed her, but she was all happy.

“Are you feeling better?” Hudson walked over and put his hand on her shoulder. He asked concernedly, “Do you want to eat something? I’ll bring you to a good restaurant!”

“I don’t really want to eat anything! Hudson, do you think I lost my appetite because of the food poisoning? I don’t feel like eating anything at all.”

Esther frowned, “My stomach hates me now because I ate carelessly. Now it doesn’t want to let me eat anymore!”

“Silly girl, it’s normal to have no appetite when you’re sick. Let’s go get some appetizing snacks then! We’ll have it at home. I told Miss Griffiths to make you your favourite porridge!” Hudson opened the car door for her. Esther got into the car and didn’t notice the car parked besides. The person in the car, his face was green with envy.

“Start the car! Bring me back to the office!” Elijah ordered.

The car drove out of D University before the Ferrari.

Esther got into the car and Hudson grabbed a box from the backseat, “Esther, this is a new phone. You lost your phone not long ago, right? This is for you!”

“Oh! A new phone!” Esther was stunned. She thought about the day when Elijah bought her a new phone. She quickly shook her head and shook that scene out of her mind. She smiled brightly, “Thank you, Hudson!”

“How could you not have a phone for so long? Tell me immediately next time if something like this happens again!”

“I wanted to call you, but my phone fell into the toilet bowl the moment I called you!” Esther pursed her lips as she looked at her new phone.

Hudson felt joy, “I’m the first person you thought of?”

Esther was taken aback, she nodded, “Yeah! Well, you’re always the one helping me!”

“Esther, what about Elijah?”

“Hudson, can I stay with you for a few days?” Esther interrupted his question. She didn’t want to say anything nor explain anything about it.

Hudson nodded, “Of course!”

The truth was, he didn’t mind at all even if she wanted to stay with him forever. It was his greatest wish!

At night, Hudson needed to attend a charity banquet. He brought Esther with him, thinking about how she was in a bad mood in the past few days. He also knew that Elijah was going to attend this banquet.

Hudson felt sour inside, but he decided to help Elijah and Esther, as Esther seemed unhappy recently. Maybe their misunderstanding could be resolve when they saw each other.

He brought her to a hair salon to do her hair and she put on a cute dress. Her face was still pale and she still looked a bit sickly.

Esther sat in a corner when they arrived. She ate the pieces of peaches from the peach tower one after another. The peaches from Japan were unskinned and pickled, the texture was nice and it tasted fresh. The peaches were naturally pink and the pyramid of fruits was dribbled with some fragrant and smooth custard. The little strawberries looked like small red jewels and they were slightly sour, it balanced out the sweetness from the rest of the fruits. With a glass of fresh orange juice on the side, it was delicious. She enjoyed good food, but today it just didn’t feel as good!

She still felt odd and stifled! She pursed her small red lips, but in the end, she still couldn’t help but put the tasty peach in her mouth.

“Is it good?” Hudson looked at her eating happily.

“Yeah! It’s yummy!” She nodded, but she thought about it and felt like it wasn’t that good.

“Don’t eat too much, let your stomach rest!”

“I know! Hudson!” Esther smiled brightly as she replied.

Suddenly, it was noisy by the entrance. Esther and Hudson looked up and saw a tall and lean man at the entrance. He was in a classic, limited edition silver suit, it looked flawless and well-ironed.

Elijah walked in, his sight immediately landed on Esther who was next to Hudson.

Esther was taken aback. She looked at him and met his eyes, her heart started to beat fast.

Nobody thought much about Esther being next to Hudson and she being his companion for the night, as they were reported in the news the other day to be siblings. They were guessing why she wasn’t here with Elijah tonight and was with her brother instead!

In the hall, relaxing music was being played. The crowd was whispering, and it was a bit boisterous. Esther felt suffocated and bored. She went up to the rooftop terrace alone and leaned on the railing as she enjoyed the cool wind blowing on her face. It was a bit cold, but it was easier to breathe.

If possible, she wanted to stay here until the banquet ended.

Suddenly, she noticed a waft of smoke.

She looked over and saw Elijah walking up the rooftop terrace. His tall figure appeared in front of her and his shadow was slanted from the moonlight.

It was dark and she couldn’t see his face well. The cigarette between his fingers, its smoke was blown now and then by the wind. Esther felt nervous and her heart was in her throat. They hadn’t seen each other for a while, she didn’t know how to act in front of him.

Since he liked the rooftop terrace area, she would give him space. She sidetracked and was about to leave.

Suddenly, he moved and halted her in her tracks.

Esther tried to move again, but when she moved left, he moved left and stopped her again.

“Elijah!” she growled, she felt weak all over, “Out of my way!”

Elijah took a drag on his cigarette and puffed white smoke out which quickly dispersed due to the wind. She smelled the strong cigarette smell and because of her food poisoning and inflammation, she coughed violently.

“You sure are having fun!” he said in a deep voice that vibrated in her ears.

Esther felt her heart skipped a beat and she was dumbfounded. His choice of words made her bitter, she forced a smile and said, “Yes! I’m having fun!”

Yes! Fun!

Esther purposedly emphasized the word “fun”.

“You’re having fun too,” she scoffed and retorted, “Hahaha...”

“What are you laughing about?” He was enraged and he said, “What’s so funny?”

Esther stopped laughing abruptly, in the dark she could see the blaze in his pupil. She pursed her lips, was stubborn and didn’t want to answer his question. She didn’t find anything funny, she thought that it was sad. When did she have fun? She wasn’t in the mood for fun.

“Why did you skip class? You don’t want to go to class anymore, is that? Is it fun to do stuff half-heartedly? Don’t go if you don’t want to, no need to waste time!”

Esther was stunned, she smiled bitterly, “Yes, I don’t want to go. I won’t go anymore, I’m not going to study anymore. Are you happy now?”

He was about to take another drag of the cigarette, but he slowed down hearing her said that. He felt faint, “Then why did you go today?”

“Just because, I’m just fucking crazy like that. I was bored, so I went. And if I don’t feel like it, I won’t go. I’m bored and crazy, are you happy now?”

Esther pushed him away and walked back into the hall. She thought that she wouldn’t cry, but she was crying a river.

Hudson saw Esther crying as she walked back in. He then looked in the direction of the roof terrace. He walked over and asked in a quiet voice, “What happened?”

“Nothing!” Esther shook her hand, “The wind was howling outside, and something got into my eyes as the wind blew! I’m fine now that I’m inside!”

Hudson’s heart ached, Esther didn’t even know how to lie. He felt sorry for her.

Elijah also walked back into the hall. He wasn’t looking at Esther anymore. He got a glass of alcohol and was talking with a bunch of elite businessmen.
