My Husband Wants Me Dead novel (Esther and Bradley)

“Mr. Searle, I don’t quite get what you’re saying,” Mandy said, gently pushing aside the stray strands of hair that fell on her forehead. “And, this is the women’s restroom. Do you have some kind of fetish?”

“Ms. Pendleton, if you help us rescue Esther, I’ll give you 15,000,000 dollars,” Jasper offered.

Mandy feigned ignorance, shaking her head. “Mr. Searle, don’t you know that Mr. Quill brought people to search Warner Manor but couldn’t find Esther inside?”

Why would she involve herself with a lunatic like Bradley for just 15,000,000 dollars? No way!

Bradley and Esther were her enemies. She would let Bradley continue tormenting Esther, and she would eventually deal with Bradley herself. If she could manage to become Mrs. Warner before he passed, the Warner Group would be hers. What was 15,000,000 dollars worth in comparison?

“Ms. Pendleton, you know very well she’s there,” Jasper said.

Mandy raised an eyebrow. “I don’t.”

Why would she cooperate with Jasper and his group to rescue Esther? What was in it for her?

“Mr. Searle, please leave. Thank you.”
