Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 95

At Hofcaster Hospital, Ashley was sitting by the bed and looking at her phone. “Did you tell Henry about me being. discharged from the hospital today?”

She had called Henry twice, but he didn’t answer.

Thomas nodded while peeling an apple for Ashley. “Mr. Gibson seems to be very busy these days. There is something wrong with the board of directors and venture capital investment. I don’t know who is creating obstacles for Gibson Corporation. I didn’t see him these days, so I asked Ms. Marston to inform him about your discharge.”

Ashley’s face darkened instantly. “You told the assistant?”

She thought, “Did he mean Cecilia?”

“That’s right. Now, every message is relayed to Mr. Gibson by his assistant, since I don’t get the chance to see him. Thomas nodded.

“There’s no way she’ll inform Henry about it. No wonder Henry didn’t answer my call today.” Ashley was a little angry and thought, “Cecilia obviously favors Josie more. I have to find a way to get Henry to fire Cecilia. I can’t let too many enemies stay by Henry’s side.”

“Find a way to cause Cecilia to make a mistake. I want Henry to fire her.” Ashley’s eyes darkened.

“Ashley…” Thomas put the apple in Ashley’s hand. “She’s just an ordinary assistant, and she has to live on this salary. Her family is poor. If she gets dismissed because of a mistake in her job, it’ll be hard for her to find a job in Hofcaster,”

Those who could become assistants to the company’s president were not ordinary people, and their academic qualifications and abilities must be proportional to each other.

If Cecilia were to be fired because of a major work mistake, no one would dare to hire her anymore.

“What does it have to do with me!” Ashley snorted: “All I know is that she’s in my way. She can’t read the situation well and doesn’t know who her future master is.

Hearing that, Thomas frowned and remained silent. “Mr. Gibson didn’t answer your call?” He watched while Ashley didn’t give up and kept calling Henry

“He must be busy…” Ashley avoided Thomas‘ gaze and made an excuse for herself.

“Ashley… he doesn’t love you. He never said he loved you ever since the beginning. He just treats you as his sister. Thomas knew he was talking too much, but Ashley was becoming more and more unaware of the current situation

“What are you talking about? Do you think he really loves Josie? If he really loves her, she wouldn’t be in that situation today!” Ashley squeezed the apple hard. Ashley then comforted herself with self– superiority. “He doesn’t love Josie. He will fall in love with me. I’m not worse than Josie, right?”

“Don’t do too many little tricks. If you do too much, people will find out. Thomas reminded Ashley that she had done too many little tricks recently.

Ashley was a little nervous. She was also afraid that Henry had found out that she had done something secretly.

At the hospital parking lot, Josie’s face was pale and bloodless. She sat on the passenger seat and pulled the seat belt tight

She was scared.

“Why do you look so pale?” Henry frowned and felt that Josie looked sick.

Although she looked uniquely beautiful like that, it always made people feel as if she would fall apart once touched.

Josie ignored Henry. She pushed open the door and ran to the trash can while resisting the urge to vomit.

Henry took a bottle of mineral water and got off the car. He didn’t understand Josie’s behavior of only feeling carsick in private cars and not busés…

Since Josie returned to the Gibson residence, she had resisted sitting in private cars.

Henry had asked Josie for the reason before, and she merely said it was because she would feel carsick.

“Drink some water.” Henry patted Josie’s back to comfort her before handing her the bottle of water.

Josie dodged in horror and took a long breath before slowly adjusting her emotions.

“Hold back your emotions. Don’t let Arthur worry Henry held Josie’s hand and led her into the inpatient department.

Henry’s phone kept vibrating.

Before entering the ward, Josie said in a hoarse voice, “Mr. Gibson, you’re so busy. Aren’t you answering the phone?”

Henry glanced at his phone screen and realized it was Ashley calling him.

“You don’t want me to go in with you?” Henry could see through Josie’s intention. Josie wanted him to answer the call outside. so that she could go inside and visit Arthur herself.

“I feel sick even when I’m just breathing the oxygen in the same space as you.” Josie tried her best to break free from Henry’s fingers.

“Stop causing trouble. Henry frowned and tightened his grip while lowering his voice to threaten Josie.

Before entering the door, Henry said in a deep voice, “I didn’t… block your number.”

Josie was stunned for a moment. She no longer cared about it anymore.

She had called Henry a lot because of the matters about the previous company.

But Henry had blocked her number.

“Mr. Gibson, I don’t think anyone can touch your phone except for people who are close to you, right?” Josie sneered.

“You blocked me…” Henry threatened Josie again while holding her broken phone. “Cecilia will come and deliver a new phone to you later. You’d better not try to block me again, or it will

be too late when you regret it.”

“Henry!” Josie struggled hard.

“Be good…” Henry pressed Josie in his arms against his chest as his eyes darkened.

There were only a few people who could touch his phone. It was almost unnecessary to check who blocked Josie’s number on his phone.

Ashley was too willful this time. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Why are you muttering here instead of entering the ward?” Suddenly, Arthur’s cheerful voice sounded from behind them. “Arthur!” Josie took a deep breath and hurriedly pushed Henry away “Where have you been?”

“I went outside for a walk. There’s nothing wrong with me, but I’m still forced to be hospitalized, Arthur said with a smile.

Seeing Josie and Henry hugging each other. Arthur felt much relieved. His happiness could be seen on his face. “You two are young. Any arguments can be solved within a day or two.”

Henry warned Josie with a tug and smiled at Arthur. “I used the way you taught me to handle the situation. Now, Jo has already forgiven me.”

“Although I’ve married no one in my life, I’m still quite experienced in love.” Arthur entered the ward with a smile and felt much better.

Josie had asked the doctor about Arthur’s sickness and found out it was already in the advanced stage. Thus, the treatment wouldn’t have much effect. The pain would slowly aggravate. Other than making Arthur happy, all they could do was take good care of him and not let him pass away with any regrets.

Josie’s eyes reddened. She supported Arthur for him to sit on the hospital bed. “Arthur, why haven’t you been married throughout your entire life?”

Arthur remained silent for a long time and looked out of the window.

Arthur had never mentioned this matter to anyone. “When I was young. I loved someone. Later, she was gone. I didn’t cherish her when she was alive, but I could never forget her when she left. It’s been like this my whole life…”

Josie looked down as if she regretted mentioning it

So voll Y

young people should learn to cherish the ones you love.” Arthur looked at Henry as if he was reminding the latter.

Henry’s heart tightened inexplicably, and he subconsciously looked at Josie.

He didn’t dare to think what would happen if Josie left.

Henry frowned and scolded himself. He thought his thoughts were too ominous

Although Josie looked sick, she was very strong and independent.

“I will cherish Jo, Henry said meaningfully.

Josie only felt a chill running down her spine and almost couldn’t hold on to the cup in her hand.

Josie really didn’t want to continue the act with Henry here. Hence, she got up and picked up some fruits, wanting to wash

them.

“I’ll go.” Henry reached out and grabbed Josic, then took the basin of fruit from her hand before smiling at her. “I’ll take care of all the minor tasks in the family in the future.”

Josie stood there numbly. She knew Henry was just deliberately acting in such a way in front of Arthur.

But he was great at acting.

Since they got married, Josie and Henry had moved to the villa by the lake. Since then, whenever he wanted to drink something. Josie had to serve him water that was readily poured into a glass, let alone washing fruits.

“Josie…” Not long after Henry left the ward, Ashley came over wearing a mask, a hat, and a hospital gown.

Josie frowned and looked at Ashley coldly. “What are you doing here?”
