My Husband Wants Me Dead novel (Esther and Bradley)

Chapter 260

As Shane drove toward the airport, he couldn’t help but think of Liliane, who was currently in the hospital. He knew that once he left, Leah would likely end up in prison. However, he took solace in the fact that Liliane was still legally Billy’s daughter, and he was certain that Billy wouldn’t ignore the situation.

Shane also felt fortunate that he had given Liliane a card. The money inside would be enough for her to live the rest of her life without worries. Moreover, Liliane’s true parentage had not been exposed, so Billy wouldn’t abandon her.

Feeling indebted to Liliane, his biological daughter, Shane regretted not having extracted Esther’s heart from the beginning to give to Liliane. He couldn’t provide her with a healthy body or a happy marriage, and he felt he owed her the presence of a father.
