Chapter 101
Samuel leaned against the door of the rental apartment. He knew that Josie would not come back tonight, but he was still waiting.
He did not know what he was waiting for,
Henry was too possessive. If he wanted to get Josie, he would definitely make Josie stay away from Samuel.
In the short term, Josie would most probably live in the Gibson residence and not return.
Samuel checked the time. It was already half an hour after midnight.
“Awoo…” The puppy in his arms howled. Its milky white fur was glossy.
Obviously, Samuel took good care of it.
“Why are you howling? Your mom doesn’t want you anymore” Samuel felt a little aggravated.
“Awoo… The puppy shrugged and howled at Samuel.
“It’s useless even if you cry. There’s nothing I can do.” Samuel also shrugged his shoulders.
She was speechless.
When Josie went upstairs, she saw a warm scene of a person and a dog talking. She was left speechless.
Samuel was so big and tall, but it did not look weird for him to be holding a tiny puppy.
Josie smiled helplessly and did not interrupt them.
“It’s so late. Why don’t you sleep yet?” Josie coughed dryly, seeing that Samuel had no intention of going home to sleep.
Samuel was stunned for a moment and stood up nervously. “Jo…”
“She’s finally back!” he thought to himself.

“I came back to take my stuff. I’ll live at the Gibson residence for quite a while, Josie replied.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Samuel’s eyes,
“Arthur is in poor health, and the hospital has given up on the treatment… Josie lowered her head and felt sad,
‘L… What can I do!” Samuel asked immediately. He did not know what to do to help Josie.
“Take good care of yourself, and protect your family. Don’t be impulsive, and don’t put yourself in danger. Don’t provoke those crazy people, and don’t do anything else. Josie said in a deep voice as she walked to Samuel and took the dog from his
Samuel took a deep breath and mused, “Is Josie… protecting him?”
Jo, you’re underestimating me. I’m a Mr. Turner, after all. Whether it’s the Taibbi family or Henry’s family, they must think twice before hurting me,” he said out loud.
Of course, Josie knew that Spike was afraid of moving against Samuel, so Spike went after Yuri and the people around Samuel.
*I don’t want you to be involved. It’s not a matter of ability, and I never underestimate you. I never think you’re just a Mr. Turner.” Josie looked up at Samuel T’m afraid you’ll get hurt.”
If Josie were alone, she would have been fearless.
No matter how Henry of the Taibbi family threatened her, she would not be afraid.
Her closest people had all left one by one. There was nothing she could be afraid of anymore.
Even if her life was in danger, she would not compromise.
However, she was afraid to involve Samuel, Madelyn, and all the people she cared about.
“It’s you who are timid and cowardly, and you always put on a tough look.” Samuel had always seen through Josie from childhood to adulthood.
“Let me help you and protect you. At least someone can help you…. Samuel raised his hand and rubbed Josie’s head.
Josie felt very tired. “Mr. Turner, I don’t even know whether there is an endless abyss awaiting me. How can I drag you into it
“Josie. Samuel frowned. “Why couldn’t she be more selfish?” he wondered.
For so many years, Josie and Henry had lived under the same roof. Despite it, she seemed to have learned nothing from Henry’s selfishness.
“Samuel, if you really want to help me, you must get stronger quickly. When you leave the Turner family, you can protect yourself. When no one can threaten you, I will pester you every day and ask you to help and protect me…” Josie smiled weakly and stroked Bailey’s head. “Take care of Bailey. I’ll try my best too.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
She would also try her best to be strong. After all, she had someone to protect as well.
She could not afford to be alone.
“Wait for me…” Samuel pulled Josie into his arms and comforted her. “It won’t be too long.”
Even if he left the Turner family, he could still protect Josie.
He did not do it for just anyone. He just wanted to give Josie the sense of security she wanted.
Once, he arrogantly left for three years and started his own business. All he had done was to prove himself to Henry.
Samuel wanted to let Henry know that he was not a son that needed to be protected by the Turner family.
But now, he did not want to prove anything to anyone. He just wanted to protect Josie.
Later at Clusia Media Group, Madelyn tried to ask Josie for the latest gossip. “Jo, I heard that you had gotten a playboy?” Madelyn asked as she served Josie some warm milk.
“Sebastian? He is not a playboy. He is a hard–working kid. Josie protected him.
“A good kid. Why must he have the same surname as that little bitch? Madelyn felt unhappy.
“Maddy. Long is a common surname. Sebastian is a scion of the Phoenix Corporation. Can Ashley compare to him?” Josie explained to Madelyn.
“That’s right. I’m only worried you might feel sad when you hear the name.” Madelyn sipped her milk.

Josie shook her head and smiled.
She had been very calm. As long as Ashley did not mess with her, she would not take the initiative to mess with the latter.
“Josie, take the newcomer to Capston Hill for an audition today. Clusia Media Group is taking this period piece film seriously this time. They also give newcomers many opportunities. Please take Sebastian to try out.”
Cody came over and placed the role description for the audition in front of Josie. “Seize this opportunity, Many actors want to join the crew of A Pond of Reeds.
Josie nodded and looked carefully at the role description in her hand. It was not a big part for the newcomer, but it was good enough.
“Let’s go downstairs and interview the crew today. I heard the film director and the A–list actress, Hazel, are here. But… Ashley will be here, too.” Madelyn quietly reminded Josie that she would inevitably meet Ashley
After all, Ashley was also a part of this community.
Josie’s breath tightened a little as she thought, “Hazel… Henry’s biological mother. It’s time for me to meet her.”
They soon arrived at Capston Hill, the filming site of “A Pond of Reeds.”
“Do you remember all the lines? Josie’s face was pale as she asked the question. Her palms were sweating while she sat in the back seat of the business car
Fortunately, she was not alone in the car. Sebastian and his assistant were there.
“Josie, I remember. Sebastian’s face looked distressed. “I’m a little scared…”
The assistant almost choked on the water. “Why is he scared? What is he afraid of?” she thought. Was Sebastian trying to get her sympathy? “What poor acting skills
“The director is very strict. I heard that the shortlisted characters have to work in Capston Hill for a month. You might get tanned and cut your hair. Try your best to get this role, but don’t be too stressed. If you can do it, go ahead. If not, we’ll do something else.”
Josie’s heart somehow melted. Sebastian was good–looking and handsome. It was inevitable for her to have the desire to
protect him.
Josie, you’re so kind. Sebastian almost leaned on Josie.
Josie only treated Sebastian as a kid. She hit him on the head with the script. “Get out of the car now. Mind your image. “Ashley!”
Ash, I love you!”
Ash, we will always
protect you!”
As soon as they got out of the car,
Josie
le ran into Ashley’s fans.
Ashley was dressed in a black suit with a clear waistline. She was wearing black sunglasses and high heels.
“What a coincidence, Josie Ashley took off her sunglasses as she greeted Josic.
“Ms. Long, you look much older than Josie, Sebastian said innocently
Ashley’s face darkened. She gritted her teeth and thought, “Where did this kid come from?”

Josie wanted to laugh. Sebastian was indeed Samuel’s cousin.
His mouth was as ferocious too.
