Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 129

“Okay… Zachary nodded obediently.

Zachary was extremely wild and unruly, but he could always calm down in front of Josie, not knowing whether it was due to his guilt or something else.

“Try not to alert anyone,” Josie reminded him. She was afraid something would happen to Zachary

“Josie.” Seeing that Josie was about to leave, Zachary grabbed her wrist, but he frantically released it in the next second. “Don’t tell Henry that you saw me, and don’t tell him what I said”

Zachary did not trust Henry.

You…

Don’t you trust him?” Josie saw hatred reflecting in Zachary’s eyes.

“He trusts Ashley too much. Zachary’s fingers were shaking.

“Got it.” Josie nodded.

Josie knew Zachary was right about that.

Henry had too much trust in Ashley. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

It was not because of Ashley’s superb acting skills but because Henry was willing to place his trust in her.

That was also the reason Josie had given up on Henry.

Henry would rather believe Ashley than Josie.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the ward was rather tense when Josie returned.

Natalie and Cecilia both stood in the corridor and dared not to enter the ward.

Both their bosses were glaring at each other inside the ward. Natalie and Cecilia knew better than to interrupt them at such a sensitive time.

“Did you not eat your food?” Josie walked inside and saw the lunch boxes on the table. “Was it not up to your liking?

Henry was always picky about food. He rarely ate outside. Even if he had to attend a business gathering, he would skip.the. meal offered and eat at home.

Hearing that, Henry raised his hand and tugged the hem of Josie’s shirt. “I don’t feel like eating.”

*All right. You can starve yourself then. Josie did not bother spoiling Henry’s tantrum.

Henry obediently stopped protesting and sat up in bed. Jo, let’s eat together.”

Josie opened the lunch boxes. They were filled with Henry’s favorite dishes.

Henry’s expression softened a lot when he saw the dishes she packed. He shot Samuel a boastful look, clearly bragging about the fact that Josie still cared for him.

“Hurry up and finish all the food. Cecilia will stay here with you after you eat. We still have to dine out later.” Josie sat on the chair and passed Henry his fork.

That made Henry lose his appetite in an instant.”

Samuel snorted and looked gloatingly at Henry.

Henry felt like he was chewing wax to eat the food as grievance and pain filled his heart.

He was trying to come up with a way to forcefully bring Josie home and tie her up.

“I don’t feel like eating anymore.” Henry stopped eating and tossed his fork aside.

“You are already in your late 20’s. Can you stop being so childish?” Samuel reprimanded Henry. “We don’t care if you’re eating your food or not. I’m leaving with Jo now.”

Henry remained silent and looked at Josie with a complicated look in his eyes, but he still said nothing in response.

Josie sat by the bed. Although Henry said nothing, his sense of oppression was even more intense than hearing his threatening words.

She knew she should not forget the fact that Henry could quickly lose his temper and act recklessly just because of his heartwarming gestures lately.

“Mr. Gibson!”

e in pain.

Just when Josie was still feeling tense under his stare, Thomas suddenly rushed in and said, “Mr. Gibson, bad news! Something terrible happened to Ashley! Zachary, that lunatic, returned to the hotel just now and took Ashley away!”

Henry immediately straightened his back. As a result, he accidentally tore his wound, and his face turned pale

“This prick!” He knew Zachary had a strong counter–reconnaissance ability, but Henry did not expect Zachary would return. to the hotel and make a move on Ashley.

pain

“Zachary? How can you be so certain that it’s Zachary?” Josie frowned. She would have believed Zachary had done this if she were not with Zachary earlier.

According to the timeline, Josie believed there was no solid motivation for Zachary to return to the hotel for this.

Josie would rather believe Zachary than trust Ashley’s words.

“The surveillance footage! It’s obviously him, from what I saw in the surveillance footage! That guy is six feet two inches tall and wears a cap!” Thomas explained nervously. He was panting.

Henry got out of bed, clearly intending to deal with the matter.

Josie frowned at that sight. Words could not explain her emotions at that moment..

Zachary was right after all. Henry did place too much trust in Ashley.

Reaching out a hand to stop Henry, Josie looked at Thomas and said, “Men that are six feet two inches tall are everywhere. How could you confirm it’s Zachary when you didn’t even see his face? As Ashley’s manager, shouldn’t you report to the police when something has happened to her? Why did you come to inform Henry instead? Can’t you see that he is injured and needs rest? I wonder how you’re working at Gibson Corporation while being so incompetent! Unless Gibson Corporation doesn’t assess or train their managers beforehand. Do they just accept anyone for your role!” Josie questioned in a deep voice.

Thomas was startled to hear that. He panted even more heavily and said, “M–Mr. Gibson told me to inform him right away if something happened.”

Henry quickly grabbed Josie’s hand. He was delighted to know Josie still cared for him. Jo. Zachary is crazy obsessed with Ashley. Things will get worse if we leave them alone. Please let me go-”

“What can you do if I let you go to her?” Josie could barely retain her emotions.

“Jo.” Samuel noticed something was amiss with Josie’s reaction, so he hurriedly walked over and pulled her into his arms.

Samuel saw her shivering.

He knew Josie would only tremble when she was extremely nervous, afraid, and losing control over herself.

“Jo, I can only rest assured after I found Zachary. Otherwise, this lunatic will be keeping an eye on you all the time. I can’t guarantee your safety if I don’t deal with this.” Henry intended to lure Zachary out by using Ashley. It was a great opportunity for him.

Now that Zachary had made his move, Henry believed he would not get to escape as long as Henry could find Ashley.

“Henry…” Josie knew very well that it was not Zachary who took Ashley away. “Don’t go…”

Josie’s eyes turned red, and her voice choked as she looked at Henry.

She wanted to see how foolish Henry could become for Ashley.

Henry felt his fingers turn a little numb. He could tell something was amiss in Josie’s reaction.

“Jo… L… Henry was in a dilemma.

“Mr. Gibson, Thomas called out to Henry in his trembling voice.

“Call the police!” Henry got a little irritated at the whole situation.

Henry did not want to report this to the police at first as he wanted to catch Zachary before alerting the police.

Thomas was startled for a long time upon hearing that. He got a little panicked.

It seemed to Thomas that Ashley had really consumed all of Henry’s guilt toward her.

Josie breathed a sigh of relief and tugged at Samuel’s clothes. “Samuel, I’m a little tired….

She was already physically weak, and all the stimulation she went through that day exhausted her.

“Let me bring you home.” Samuel picked Josie up in his arms. Then, he shot Henry a warning look. “Don’t do anything stupid. Let the police handle this.”

Henry did not stop Samuel from bringing Josie away, as he knew Josie had gone through a lot that day.

“Mr. Gibson,” Thomas called out nervously when he saw Josie and Samuel leaving the ward,

“I will let someone come with you. Try to get Zachary under control before the police arrive. Henry rubbed his temples.

Thomas was about to say something, but Cecilia cleared her throat as she stood by the door. ‘Mr. Carden, don’t you see how badly injured Mr.Gibson is? Do you still want him to come with you? He’s not superhuman.”

Hearing that, Thomas lowered his gaze and said, “Mr. Gibson, don’t worry. I will find Ashley.”

With that, Thomas turned around and left.

“Cecilia, did I… do something to upsel her again?” Henry asked in a hoarse voice.

“Ms. Yates has always been calm. She rarely loses control over her emotions like this, so something must have stimulated her. Since she didn’t agree to let you go with Thomas, it showed that she still cares about you. It’s great news. She must be

happy when you listened to her. Cecilia comforted him. “Mr. Gibson, you must have a good rest in the hospital. I’ll let Jacob! and others follow up with Ms. Long’s situation.”

Henry nodded and rubbed his eyes, looking tired.

He knew he should not break Josie’s heart again.

Otherwise, it would be really hard for him to salvage his relationship with Josie.
