Xara would not miss out on Jacobâs growth.
âXara, itâs not too late to make amends now. Iâll be waiting for you here,â Esther said.
âOkay.â
Upon ending the call, Xara promptly sought out Kevin, the director of the Warner Groupâs private hospital âMr Slade, I am submitting my resignation letter,â she declared Kevin received the letter and casually discarded it into the trash.
âNot approved.â
Xara did not argue with Kevin She simply said, âMr Slade, the employment agreement i signed allows me to resign whenever I choose Iâll compile patient information under my care tonight and forward it to your email. You can then transfer the data to my successor.â
Xaraâs urgency surprised Kevin. Baffled, he asked, âDr. Sadler, what prompted this sudden decision to resign?â
âMy son is sick. I need to go back and be with him,â she replied.
Kevin exclaimed, âYouâre married? And you even have a son?â
âYes.â
Kevinâs gaze scanned Xara skeptically, struggling to accept the truth. He cautiously asked, âDr. Sadler, youâre not lying to me, are you?â
âI became a parent at a rather young age,â Zara stated in a distant tone. She then added, âIâm leaving â
After Xara left, Kevin logged into the hospitalâs official website and searched for Karaâs personal information. As he observed her extensive work history, he pondered the reason behind her frequent job changes. How could her turnover rate be so high?
Kevinâs phone rang suddenly. While engrossed in the computerâs information, he answered the call, inquiring, âKevin speaking, whoâs this?â
âItâs me,â came Bradleyâs cold voice, tinged with arrogance. He sneered. âKevin, guess what Iâve just received?â
Kevin, lost in thought, replied absentmindedly, âCould it be the court date for your divorce lawsuit with Esther?â
âSharp as ever.â Bradley nonchalantly tossed the documents in his grasp onto the desk âI donât have Estherâs contact information, but you probably do. Convey that I accept her divorce proposal, though Iâm intrigued to witness any judge audacious enough to approve it!â
Rubbing his throbbing temples, Kevin felt a headache coming on. He said, helpless, âBradley, 1 donât have Estherâs contact information either.â
âDonât you?â Bradleyâs reply was cold.
Kevin chuckled self-deprecatingly, saying, âIn Estherâs view, Iâm practically your accomplice. She wouldnât think to reach out to me.â
âHah!â Bradleyâs scowl was chilling. âShe thinks she can do whatever she wants with the Quills âbacking?â
Upon hearing Bradleyâs snicker, Kevin couldnât help but shake his head, sighing softly. Bradley, have you ever asked yourself what feelings you have for Esther? Do you hate her or love her?â
âAre you out of your mind?â Bradleyâs tone grew intense. âLove her? Is she even deserving?â âSo, you hate her then?â Kevin picked up a pen and wrote âloveâ and âhateâ on a notepad. You hate her because you believe she pulled Grandpa Thomasâ oxygen mask, but as far as 1 know, sheâs been denying it.
She insists it was Liliane who did itâ¦â
Bradleyâs eyes glinted with sinister coldness as he caressed the photo frame containing Estherâs beautiful smiling face. âDo you actually believe her excuses?â he asked. âI used to be too merciful. This time, Iâll personally clip off her wings.
Before he could finish his sentence, his secretary knocked on the door, her face pale and anxious.
Bradley raised an eyebrow indifferently. âWhatâs the matter?â
âMr. Warner, Mrs. Warner is on the foreign news program, âFrontline Scoopâ!â
