Chapter 94
The scene before Bradley gave him an indescribable sense of warmth and wholesomeness. He calmly
observed Esther. The current Esther was gorgeous, pleasant
like a beautiful orchid in a secluded valley, and charming like a rose covered in morning dew.
She and the comatose Esther seemed like two different people. The comatose Esther appeared frail an
d withered as if nearing the end of her
life, but right now, she seemed to have been infused with boundless vitality, radiating the unique charm
of her age. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Then I’ll arrange for a doctor to examine you now,” said Bradley.
All Esther could see was Felix’s adorable face. She raised her eyebrows and readily responded, “I’ll list
en to my son.”
“Mommy, be a good girl!” Felix spoke to her like he was coaxing a child, gently stroking Esther’s head.
Bradley was rendered speechless.
With Bradley’s arrangements, a psychologist promptly conducted a psychological health assessment fo
r Esther.
When Clark received a call from Felix informing him that Esther had awakened, he hurriedly
arrived at the hospital.
“Mr. Bradley, how’s Esther doing?” asked Clark.
Bradley sat on a chair, his expression cold and his voice indifferent. “The doctor said she cannot
accept reality and has selective amnesia.”
Clark understood
the situation. He knew that there was not much for Esther to hold onto in this world after losing her dau
ghter. Selectively forgetting those immensely painful memories might be a way for her to start anew.
Felix excitedly chimed in. “Grandpaw Clark, she called me her son.”
Bradley looked at Felix’s indulgent behavior and said sternly,” Felix, sit and stand properly.”
In an instant, Felix’s eyes welled up with a sense of grievance, and in his childlike voice, he uttered, “D
addy, you never used to ask me this before.”
In the past, Bradley did not have any strict demands of Felix as his health had been poor and his life ex
pectancy had been uncertain. As long as Felix was healthy, nothing else mattered to Bradley.
What about the current Felix? His health had improved.
He would inherit the Warners‘ business in the future, so Bradley naturally had higher standards and ex
pectations for him.
“Mr. Felix, Mr. Bradley just hopes that you can make Mommy proud in the future,” Clark interjected, tryi
ng to mediate the situation.
Felix’s slightly reddened eyes glittered instantly as he proudly patted his chest and vowed, “I’ll definitely
make Mommy proud.”
Clark quietly shielded Felix behind him. The results of the DNA maternity test he had arranged were not
out yet, and he could
not just rely on the audio recording to tell Bradley about Esther and Felix’s relationship.
Only when the DNA test results were available would Clark have secure evidence to reveal the truth to
Bradley. The more evidence there was, the more likely Bradley would believe the truth.
At the same time, Clark hoped that he would not be discovered by Liliane while collecting evidence. If it
turned out that Liliane was responsible for Thomas‘ death, then it was highly possible that she would r
esort to murder to cover up her tracks once she found out he was investigating Felix’s identity.
Moreover, Clark suspected that Cole’s coincidental car accident and subsequent
disappearance were related to
Cole’s doubts regarding Tinkerbell’s identity.
