Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 161

Josie thought. “To protect me, Henry can ignore me, distance himself from me, and keep our marriage a secret. Even if he does something more outrageous, I can still accept it. But Henry has to tell me. Even if he doesn’t tell me, providing me with a little warmth could give me the hope to persevere.”

Yet, there was nothing.

All she got was only endless despair.

“I went crazy and destroyed the bedsheet we used and our memories together, but you only care whether I secretly answered your phone and triggered Ashley…”

At that time, Henry didn’t realize that he truly had broken her heart.

Henry’s fingers went exceedingly numb. He couldn’t change the past, as it was already too late.

Josie was weak and timid, someone who cried easily and liked to rely on others.

But she was actually very strong and determined.

There would be no turning back when she had decided.

“Well… Before the cooperation ends, let me make it up to you as much as possible. Don’t reject me, okay?” Henry asked in at trembling voice. There were mixed feelings in his eyes.

He added, “At least… Let me feel more at ease, so I won’t have to worry about letting you go.”

Josie looked down at the ground. “Okay”

At Inno Tower, Josie glanced at the time and walked to the lounge. “Help me investigate this person.”

Josie handed the business card to Charles.

When Charles reached out to take it, he noticed it was a psychiatrist’s business card. “Why?”

“She used to be Henry’s psychiatrist. Henry met her when he was a teenager. He changed his psychiatrist regularly and was cautious, but Ashley was close to this woman.”

Josie suspected that there was some sort of deal between this psychiatrist and Ashley.

“Okay, leave it to me.” Charles nodded and then asked, “Anything else?”

“Zachary’s father’s name is Jeremy. He was imprisoned for hurting his adopted daughter and ended his life there. I have a feeling that there is a hidden story behind this,” Josie frowned.

“Sure, I’ll handle it. Charles raised the corners of his mouth. “Since I’ve done so many things for you, can you do me a favor by having dinner with me tonight?”

Josie shook her head. Tm not free.”

“How ruthless Charles sighed.

“We are in a partnership. Didn’t you get benefits from me for helping me? In fact, Josie agreed to give Charles quite a lot of advantages.

Charles thought Josie was boring. “Ugh. Fine. Whatever you say. Since you’re young, I have to give in.”

Josie smiled and got up to leave.

Charles was the kind of person who feigned innocence after taking advantage of the situation.

When he saw Josie leave, Charles sighed. His eyes narrowed as he looked at the business card in his hand.

He mused, “Hmm, a psychiatrist. Ashley is quite clever. She knows she has to target Henry’s weaknesses and flaws to win his heart. No wonder Ashley was very confident that she could sabotage the marriage between Henry and Josie when she came to me previously.”

Charles fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time. He then stood up and left.

Meanwhile, in the gang’s base of the Taibbi family, Spike followed his friends to enter the place, an antique–looking building decorated in vintage style.

“Zach, if you really get into the gang, we’ll all be comrades in the future.”

Zachary knitted his brows. “I know what this place is for. You guys only loaf around doing nothing, but why do the higher- ups keep so many people? Are they hiring the people as their fighters?”

“Well, Zach, it’s just to keep up appearances since the boss is rich.” One of the underlings smiled at Zachary.

“It’s a law–based society now, Zachary reprimanded in a deep voice.

“A law–based society? Hahaha! I can’t believe a wanted criminal is bringing up the law. Let’s give a big clap to him!” The one who spoke was the man who went to find Zachary that day.

“Didn’t you refuse to come? Go ahead, tell me what you want. The man was sitting in a chair while smoking a cigarette. He had a rogue look on his face.

“Money and life, Zachary replied briefly.

“Sure, you can take the money, but you’ll have to rely on your abilities to get a life here.”

*I want to see the boss” Zachary did not want to waste any more time talking to him.

“What are you acting so for? You must be tired of living to behave arrogantly in our gang” Someone at the side angrily. threw the cigarette butt in his hand.

The underlings exchanged glances and rushed toward Zachary to hit him with sticks.

Zachary frowned and grabbed the man’s stick before he kicked the latter away.

When it came to being an outlaw, no one could compare to Zachary.

For the past ten years, he had fled everywhere and escaped death many times. It was apparent that these gangsters in front of him couldn’t compete with him since he was able to live to this day.

Even though five or six of them attacked Zachary at once, they were still no match for him.

It was because Zachary’s endurance was too strong-

Meanwhile, on the second floor, Spike was drinking coffee. As he looked downstairs at Zachary, he queried, “Have y

figured it out?”

“He’s Ashley’s brother. Back then, his father was arrested for harming his daughter and died in prison. Since then, Zachary has been wandering around. Zachary has always thought there was something else behind his father’s imprisonment. Thus, he has been following Ashley persistently all these years. If it weren’t for Henry protecting Ashley, I’m afraid…..

In short, Zachary was an outlaw.

Spike nodded with satisfaction. “Bring him up to see me.”

At Clusia Media Group, when Josie returned to the company, she bumped into Samuel as soon as she entered the elevator

Since the last time they left Caligo Club, Josie had never seen Samuel again.

And Samuel hadn’t been in touch with her for a while.

Josie was a little embarrassed, so she turned around and stood aside without saying anything.

They met in such a confined elevator, yet neither of them spoke.

“How… have you been lately? Samuel spoke first before he got out of the elevator. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“Fine.” Josie didn’t want to give Samuel hope because she had no idea how the future was going to be.

After all, it would be best if this opportunity allowed Samuel to move on and let go.

“Did… Henry threaten you? He… Samuel held the elevator door open with his hand and stood behind Josie.

“No. He’s good.” Josie bowed her head and said before she left.

Samuel stood in front of the elevator for a long time. It wasn’t until the elevator warning sounded that he slowly took his hand away.

He wondered, “Did Josie choose Henry in the end?”

However, he didn’t want to admit defeat.

“Mr. Turner, how did the taking over of Turner Corporation go?” Yuri asked and placed a few Clusia Media Group’s contracts before Samuel

Samuel was a little absent–minded.

“Hmm?” Yuri knocked on the table..

“Well, everything went well… Samuel nodded.

As Samuel looked at the contract in his hand, he remembered something. “By the way. Madelyn is in a relationship and even made it public on social media. Did you see it?”

“Huh?” Yuri was startled for a moment. “Damn it! She blocked me! I can’t believe she blocked me!”

Yuri was a little angry.

“What do you think about that? Her boyfriend is even Quinton’s friend. What a coincidence!” Samuel rubbed his temples. He was worried that Quinton would deal with Josie by approaching Madelyn.

Yuri’s face darkened, and he knitted his brows slightly.

‘I’ll take care of this matter.”

ware

“Take care of this matter? How are you going to solve it? What can you do about their relationship?” Samuel rubbed his temples.

“I don’t believe there is any girl I can’t steal! Yuri sat on the couch and narrowed his eyes. “This ungrateful person…”

He exclaimed inwardly. “Did I treat Madelyn badly? I just had a business trip. How could she get into a relationship just that? Fine! low great!”
