Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 106

“Henry, I’m just… I didn’t.” Ashley looked at Henry nervously.

The fans were still excited, and they wanted to defend their idol.

Sebastian glanced at Henry and commented, “Henry, no matter who pushed whom or it was just an accident, you have already chosen between Josie and Ms. Long. Don’t bother Josie anymore, then

Henry’s breath hitched in his throat. He rushed forward and wanted to check on Josie’s situation.

Josie is pretty frail, you know? The lake is so cold that she will cramp when she gets into it. Even if she can swim, she may not be able to swim ashore,” Sebastian spoke again. His words made an impact on Henry.

“Jo… Henry walked to the car. He looked nervous.

He was worried about Josie. However, he also instinctively believed that it was Josie who pushed Ashley capriciously. He didn’t trust Josie.

“Drive away, Let’s go.” Samuel looked at Henry coldly and instructed Sebastian to get in the car.

It was warm in the car but Josie couldn’t stop shaking.

“Go to Huxville Street first,” Samuel instructed the driver.

Josie’s clothes were all soaked. He wanted to take Josie home to change her clothes.

Jo, we’re home. Josie shrank in Samuel’s arms and grabbed onto Samuel’s clothes tightly. She was reluctant to let go.

Samuel knew that Josie was scared.

Samuel held her in his arms, got out of the car, and went upstairs.

Josie had been huddled in Samuel’s arms the entire time. She was tense and unable to relax due to her body cramping.

“Sebastian! Prepare some hot water!” Samuel worriedly rubbed Josie’s arm and patted her back gently. “Jo, it’s all right. You’ll

be fine.

The temperature in the bathroom was very high, and the hot steam rushed toward them.

F

Samuel wanted to call Madelyn. He was a man, after all. It would not be appropriate for him to assist Josie at the moment.

“Samuel… It hurts!” Josie cried and tightened her grip on Samuel’s clothes. She was trying to straighten her arms, but it hurt.

Her arms hurt so much, and even her legs were in pain.

In the bathroom, Samuel carefully warmed Josie’s feet. Her feet were so cold as if she was just gotten out of the ice cellar.

Her fair complexion had an unnaturally icy sheen to it.

“The family doctor will be here soon. Don’t be afraid. Take a warm bath, and the pain will disappear, Samuel comforted her gently. He had given all his gentleness to Josie.

In his opinion, only Josie was worthy of his special treatment.

Josie’s frozen fingers touched the water. “It’s so warm, she thought helplessly.

Jo… do you want me to help you? I won’t look, Samuel stammered. He averted his gaze and didn’t look at her. Her arm was stiff and hurt. He was afraid that she couldn’t take off her clothes.

Josie’s eyes were red, and so were her ears because of the heat. “I… I can do it myself.”

She wanted to take off her clothes and take a warm bath.

Samuel coughed awkwardly and held Josie in his arms. He said with a smile, “Okay, I’ll go out. Call me if you need anything.”

Josie bit her lips and tried to straighten her arm. However, it still hurt.

“Samuel… Josie choked with sobs.

“Jo” Samuel turned around nervously.

“Is it all right to help me unbutton my shirt?” She couldn’t control her fingers.

Samuel’s face flushed instantly. He looked like a child at a loss..

“Well… I won’t look. Samuel didn’t dare to look around. He turned his head away and tried to unbutton Josie’s shirt.

Josie also blushed. After Samuel left the bathroom, she slowly soaked herself in the warm water.

“It’s so warm……

This experience was completely different from being in the icy lake water.

Maybe these were two different lives.

She used to love Henry very much, but all he gave was coldness.

Maybe she could try to love Samuel because he was so warm.

No woman could stay unmoved so many times.

She was not an iceberg, and her heart could still be warmed.

On the way back, Samuel tried to cover and warm her feet. It turned out that the whole body would be warm when the feet. got warm.

As she lay in the bathtub, Josie felt a headache.

“I think I’m going to get sick, she thought.

The environment was so comfortable that Josie couldn’t help but fall asleep. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Sebastian played with Bailey in the living room and looked at his cousin’s rental apartment teasingly. He quipped, “My dear Samuel, you have a lot of villas and mansions. Yet, you choose to live in a rented apartment. Is it because it is more sentimental?”

“I’m warning you, don’t mess with my son.” Samuel rescued Bailey from the latter. His ears were red.

“Is Josie going to pledge herself to you?” Sebastian grinned.

“Don’t be a busybody.” Samuel frowned and reprimanded Sebastian for not informing him and approaching Josie.

“Mandy asked me to protect Josie. I have to do my best. Sebastian pouted.

Samuel didn’t say anything. He still felt scared as he sat on the couch.

He was afraid that something could have happened to Josie just now.

“Samuel, don’t be in a daze. Give me your son and check on what is taking his mother so long.” Sebastian joked.

Samuel abruptly stood up and then hesitantly sat down again. “No, it’s not appropriate…”

“Samuel, what about I go and have a look then?” Sebastian stood up and started making his way to the bathroom.

Samuel reached out and grabbed Sebastian’s collar. Just stay here.”

Once he reached the bathroom door, Samuel tried to knock. “Jo?”

However, there was no response from the inside.

“Jo” Samuel pushed open the door nervously. Jol”

The bathroom was full of heat, and Josie’s skin was as flawless as the pearly white bathtub.

Samuel held his breath and turned around immediately, his back facing Josie.

Josie dazedly woke up and lay by the bathtub. She slowly sank into the water and said, “Samuel, the water is getting cold.”

“Well, do

you want to come out?” Samuel’s voice was hoarse. He reached out to take the towel and the clothes prepared for Josie. “Wear mine first.”

Josie looked at–Samuel’s clumsy actions for a long time. Her face above the water blushed slightly.

Samuel’s heart beat fast when he heard Josie standing up from the tub. He was sensible and didn’t look back.

It was not the first time he had such close contact with Josie.

Three years ago, Josie had removed all of her clothes.

Samuel coughed awkwardly. He felt sick. Maybe he also had a fever.

“You should come into the water, too. Take a hot shower.”

Josie felt a little guilty.

When the family doctor arrived, he saw two figures, one big and one small. Both sat cross–legged on the couch, held cups filled with hot water, and wore the same casual clothing and blankets while they sneezed.

The family doctor looked at Samuel’s thermometer and said with a smile, “Mr. Turner, you caught a cold. Just take some medicine.”

Then he looked at Josie’s thermometer.

Both of them had the same body temperature, 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

“Is Jo okay?” Samuel was more concerned about Josie.

“Yes, it’s just a cold. The lake water is too cold. She will be much better tomorrow.”

Samuel sighed with relief.

Josie looked at Samuel and whispered, “Can I lean on your shoulder?”

12:44 Thu, 9 May.

Samuel’s body stiffened and forgot to agree.

Josie leaned her head against Samuel’s shoulder as she held her cup. Her cheeks were red.

“Jo, take the medicine.” Samuel didn’t know how long it took before he came back to his senses. He put the medicine in Josie’s hand stiffly.

Since half an hour ago, Josie’s phone had been buzzing non–stop.

It was Henry.

He kept calling again and again.

Samuel whispered, “Do you want to answer it?”

Josie shook her head. She didn’t want to answer the call or hang up.
