Chapter 550

“Can you help me buy a can of coffee from the vending machine outside?”

Felix replied crisply, “Sure!”

Sadie took a banknote from her wallet and handed it to Felix. The latter took the money and happily ran out of the hospital room.

“Esther, you should freshen up first. Don’t frighten Felix, Sadie said.

Esther looked at the bloodstains on her clothes and quietly entered the bathroom. She could not help but think about what Bradley had done to her and brushed her teeth immediately.

The foam from the toothpaste stung the wounds at the corners of her mouth, causing tears to well up.

After a simple wash and a change of clothes, she took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom, feeling uneasy.

Felix had already bought a can of coffee and was sitting beside Sadie, looking at a calculus book together. “Mommy “What book are you reading?”

Felix raised the book he was reading high so that Esther could see the text clearly.

“Wow!” Esther suppressed the sadness in her heart and said, “Sadie, I met Mr. Pendleton today.”

“What did that lunatic say?” Sadie asked.

Esther knew the Quills were going after the Pendletons because of her. The Quills had treated her so well, and she did not want her actions to cause them trouble.

“He asked me to marry him.”

Sadie was furious. “That lunatic is really shameless! How can he be so audacious?”

“Sadie, he said that the Quills are currently going after the Pendletons. Given the Pendletons’ scale, they won’t fall so easily Even if the Quills go all out, the worst case scenario is that both families will suffer. At that time, other families may take advantage of the situation to attack the Quills. I know they’re doing this. for me, but I don’t want anything to happen to the Quills,”

Sadie comforted Esther by patting her shoulder gently. “Esther, what are you thinking? The Pendletons may be strong, but the Quills aren’t weak either. If it weren’t for that scoundrel from the Pendletons…”

Esther’s party was also a celebration of her official return to the Quills. Other families, even if they had conflicts, would not cause trouble on such an important occasion.

Chadwick remained audacious just because he was the only heir of the Pendletons. He had caused a scene at such an important event!

In Sadie’s opinion, Bradley had gone easy on him. He should have directly stomped on Cadwick’s groin and see if he would dare to be so arrogant in the future.

“Sadie, I’m also a part of the Quills now. If anything happens to the Quills, please tell me immediately.”

Sadie hugged Esther’s shoulder and said softly, “I’ll convey your concern to my parents and Uncle Oliver. But for now, the most important thing is for you to recover. If you don’t take care of yourself, how can you witness that scoundrel’s fate, right?”

Esther couldn’t help but hug Sadie and sob softly. She was so fortunate to have such a loving family.

“Sadie, I feel so happy to have relatives like you.”

Sadie patted Esther’s back and said warmly, “It’s because we’re family!”

At that moment, Sadie’s alarm clock went off.

“Esther, I have a date tonight, so I’ll leave Felix to you.” Sadie grabbed her limited edition purse and playfully winked. “You need to recover quickly so I can take you to explore Capitus soon!”

“Okay!”

Esther escorted Sadie to the door. The latter waved and entered the elevator.

When Esther returned to the hospital room, Felix reminded her, “Mommy! Your phone rang!”

Esther picked up her phone on the bedside table and checked the message-a gruesome image of a severed hand covered in blood!
