Chapter 637: Chapter 639

“You should be very clear that if you have anything to do with it, I’m here just to inform you, that’s it. Even though you are an asshole, it doesn’t mean I have to be as bad as you, after all, you are Ethel’s father, the bond still exists. You better stop any unwilling thought. That’s all!” After Fenny Kirby said these a few words, she turned around and walked out.

Christ’s eyes were wide open with anger. His burning rage had calmed down gradually at this moment. It was not that he intended to make peace but to accumulate more danger.

Their days being together always flown so fast. It had been half a month in a blink of an eye. In this half a month, Elijah accompanied her almost every day. Esther felt something was wrong. “Elijah, is the company bankrupt?”

“What?” Elijah was astonished and didn’t know why Esther said that.

“You didn’t go to the office but accompanied me every day. Don’t you have any business to do? You are so slack, but I cannot be like that, I still want to go to class!” Esther smiled and said, “Although I have been absented from school for more than a month, through reading the notes, I think I can catch up with the class by putting in more effort. After all, I need an academic certificate, right? You don’t need to accompany me every day, we will get bored with each other after being together for too long, so I will go to school tomorrow!”

Elijah was thinking of the days when he was not around. Babe should have something to do. She would feel bored if she had nothing to do, so he nodded.

“Well, I will ask the driver to send you tomorrow, you go back to school!”

“Really?” She didn’t expect he would agree, and she was a little surprised.

“Of course!”

“Thanks, hubby!” Esther stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips.

His body stiffened and lightly kissed her lips. This kiss was a little perfunctory.

Esther was stunned. He took a cold shower every day for this half month but refused to touch her. She knew that she just had a miscarriage, but it had been a month and a half. They had no problem having sex a long time ago, but she didn’t understand why he endured it so much. Her heart hurt and there was some inexplicable panic too. She couldn’t tell why she had this feeling, she just felt awkward and uncomfortable.

“You don’t love me anymore!” she pouted her mouth.

“How could it be? Everyone knows how much I love you!” he forcefully suppressed his desire, but when he saw Esther pouting her mouth, he gasped violently in his heart.

“Then why do you still endure?” Esther stood on tiptoe. At the moment when he was astonished, Esther kissed him again.

He found that he couldn’t stop her at all. His sexual desire was aroused by her easily.

After a long teasing, Esther leaned on his body and muttered, “Hubby, shall we go to the room?”

At last, Esther was rejected by Elijah again. He still didn’t touch her, and she felt very upset!

The second day, Elijah sent her back to school by himself. She met Lena and both of them were very happy. They promised to have a meal together at the entrance after class.

Elijah looked at how happy Esther was as soon as she met Lena until he left him behind. He felt sad but he couldn’t tell her. There was not much time left and he said melancholy, “Babe, I’ll pick you up after school in the afternoon!”

“Got it!” Esther didn’t look back. She waved her hand and hugged Lena with a cozy smile. She looked back again to see Elijah. But she was reminded by Lena who pulled her sleeve and he saw his lonely face. Yes, it looked like loneliness due to some sense of jealousy. She let go of Lena and walked to the car. She came close to his ear and threatened him in a low voice, “If you are still so cold to me, then I’ll sleep with Lena tonight. I won’t let you hug me anymore. There is no benefit. I would rather sleep with Lena than sleep with you. Oh yeah, there is a handsome boy too and his name is Oscar!”

“Uh!” Elijah was speechless.

Esther looked at his handsome face and saw something flickering. She stretched her hand and held his face, “If you still take a cold shower tonight, I’ll ignore you! Humph!”

After that, she turned around. Then she smiled and held Lena’s arm again. She walked towards the school building and waved to Elijah who sat in the car without looking back.

Elijah’s face was a bit numb. It was not that he didn’t want to touch her, he was just afraid of hurting her. The first reason was he was going to leave her after half a month for three years. Secondly, she just had a miscarriage. He couldn’t hurt her body for his selfish desire. No one knew that how hard he endured!

When he looked at her tiny figure and how intimate she was with Lena, his eyes were filled with guilt but at the same time, he was gratified. It was because she had a friend and he felt happy. He looked again at their backs until they went into the school building, and he said to the driver, “Let’s go to the company!”

Lena accompanied Esther to undergo the procedures to resume study again. Elijah had notified the school, so everything was easy.

After she finished the procedures, she didn’t go to class. Lena had no class. They told each other’s stories at the beverage shop in front of their school entrance.

“Esther, I envy and jealous of you being so happy!” Lena said and smiled.

“You will be happy too!” Esther said sincerely, “A kind woman like you will be happy. Have you ever thought of looking for Oscar’s dad?”

“It would be a lie if I said no. But where should I go to find it? What can I do if I found him?” Lena shook her head calmly.

“I still remember the day when I was just confirmed pregnant, my parents were so angry. They forced me to abort, but I’m not willing to do it, so I ran out of home. My parents were too angry and broke off with me!”

“But you are living a very hard life now, I’m a little worried. Let Elijah or my brother help you, okay?”

Lena shook her head. “People can’t live on charity. Esther, I like my life now. I’m indeed poor but satisfied and I felt contented. I support myself and my son. I’m happy after I have Oscar!”

Esther heard what she said, and she didn’t know what to say anymore. Her admiration towards Lena became even greater. “If I were you, I am not sure whether I dare to bear it. Lena, you are awesome!”

“If not being forced, you will never know that human potential is limitless. Esther, it is real! Do you know? My dad was a senior official, I was born into a rich family. I had never been wronged since I was a kid. I was also very rich in material, and I never suffered. I never thought that I would live a life like this. But I’m living in it. Now I know, everything that seemed to be impossible before is not really impossible!”

“Yes! I used to think that I’ll die if I leave Hudson, but I didn’t. Previously, I thought that I love Hudson very much, but then I found out that it wasn’t like that. Maybe I’m a little bit sentimental, but now I love Elijah so much! Just that, now I suddenly found out that he has hidden something from me, but he didn’t want to tell me even if I asked. So, I felt a little panic! But I know I should trust him!”

“If you love someone then you should trust him. Life is very long, both of you need to get through the run-in period together. He didn’t tell you, maybe he was afraid you would get worried!”

After she listened to what Lena said, the pain in Esther’s heart eased a bit. She smiled a bit, “Lena, you are very good at comforting.”

“Aren’t we friends?” Lena said and smiled.

Both of them were sitting at the coffee shop. A sharp sight that had hidden darkness glanced over them from a car opposite the door of the coffee shop.

After that, both of them received a call at the same time.

“Miss Price, your friend’s son is in my hands!”

“What” Esther was on the phone and she screamed. “Who are you? What you want to do?”

“If you want to save him, come to us...” The voice sounded weird and made Esther nervous.

“Miss Price, don’t report to the police and don’t tell anyone!”

After Esther hung up the phone, she saw Lena’s face turn pale like hers. Her hands trembled and she called home. The nanny was crying and told her that she was beaten by a group of people—they kidnapped Oscar.

“Lena, don’t be panic, I’ll find a way. They aim at me; I will go find them and exchange myself to get Oscar back!” Esther calmed down quickly, she stretched her hands and held Lena’s.

“I’ll go with you!” Lena was bewildered and almost suffocated out of shock.

Esther negotiated with the people on the phone. “If I go, you need to let the kid go!”

“Of course, we just want you. As long as you come, we will let the kid go!”

“Okay!” Esther had decided herself and brought Lena to the place that the kidnapper mentioned.

The place was the pier. Specifically, it was in the warehouse where the goods were stored.

Once they entered in, they heard the cry of the child.

“Ahh, is Oscar!” Lena cried and shouted.

The warehouse door was pulled down as soon as they entered in. Suddenly dozens of people came out with guns in their hands and aimed at them.

Then, the lights were switched on. Oscar sat in the middle of the ground.

“You even strapped the bomb on Oscar?” Esther’s beautiful face turned icy cold instantly, she stared at the 4 kidnappers behind her with endless coldness. “He is still a kid. How can you be so inhumane? Let him go. I came as promised. What you want is me, this has nothing to do with them!”

Esther withdrew her glance. She held Lena’s hands and comforted her, “Lena, don’t worry!”

***

“Esther, what should we do?” Lena’s face looked pale, and she was panic. In the middle of the empty ground of the warehouse, her son was crying.

His face was filled with tears while she and Esther were pointed by guns. She was so scared that the kidnappers might hurt her child.

“Lena, I’m so sorry. It’s me who cause you and your son in trouble!”

“Where is your leader?” Esther shouted.

“Humph!” A cold snort came from behind a cargo box not far away. The person who walked out made Esther stunned.

That was Christ. When Esther saw him, her gazes suddenly turned sharp. “It’s you!”
