Chapter 179

Bradley brutally punched Wilson, sending him crashing to the ground. Wilson sprawled on the floor, desperately trying to defend himself. “She’s a murderer…”

What use was there for a murderer? She was a product of an illicit affair, a love child. Her very existence was tainted with sin. And to harm Thomas, who had treated her as his own, was unforgivable. Such a wicked woman was a drain on society, better off serving as an organ donor to help others.

Bradley stared down at Wilson with a cold and stern gaze, demanding, “Tell me, who ordered you to do this?”

Knowing Wilson’s unwavering loyalty to Leah, he would never betray her. Wilson simply confessed, “No one ordered me! It was my own doing…”

Just as Bradley was about to strike again, the police intervened.

“Mr. Warner, he will face legal consequences for his actions. You don’t need to dirty your hands,” said the police officer.

The police lifted Wilson from the ground like a lifeless carcass. Wilson had pondered the consequences of exposure, but he never expected it to come so soon.

What worth did a murderer like Esther have in staying alive? It would be best if she died! That would serve everyone.

As Wilson was forcefully taken away, Leah was filled with shock. She clutched her pounding heart, her gaze fixed on Wilson, who appeared abandoned. She worried intensely if he would expose her.

Leah’s concern seemed like genuine worry in Wilson’s deluded eyes. He offered Leah a reassuring look before walking past her.

In the operating room, Esther remained unconscious.

Bradley clenched his fists tightly, veins pulsating on his handsome face. It had been too close, dangerously close… Esther’s heart could have been claimed by someone else!

Bradley felt grateful that Scott had reported in time. Otherwise…

Bradley bent down and gently lifted Esther from the operating table, cradling her in his arms as if she weighed nothing.

Leaving the hospital, he instructed the bodyguards to locate Scott.

Scott was covered in blood and was promptly taken to the operating room. Thankfully, Wilson’s attack had been calculated, and though Scott had lost blood, his life was not in immediate danger.

Unsure of the extent of Esther’s injuries, Bradley wasted no time arranging a comprehensive examination for her upon returning to the private hospital under the Warner Group.

Thankfully, the results indicated that Esther had only been exposed to a small amount of anesthesia and would recover with proper rest. Bradley finally felt a sense of relief.

With Esther entrusted to Xara’s care, Bradley swiftly made his way to Scott’s ward.

Scott’s pale complexion was evident, his head bandaged.

“Mr. Warner, I’ve been looking for you.” Scott eagerly spoke as he played a video he had recorded.

“Take a look at this.”

Bradley’s expression darkened as he focused on the screen of Scott’s phone.

Though the video was a covert recording, it clearly showed Wilson’s upper body. It was brief, yet it contained crucial information.

After watching the video, Bradley furrowed his brow and asked, “Are you saying Liliane’s heart condition Is congenital rather than acquired?”
