Chapter 125
“Can Ashley’s words be trusted?” Joste snorted.
She didn’t think Zachary would really harm her.
If Zachary truly planned to hurt her, he would not try to protect her when she was kidnapped.
Jo. Don’t be prejudiced against her. This matter must be taken seriously,” Henry said with a sigh.
Josie frowned. “Henry is still blaming me for being biased against Ashley?” she scoffed inwardly.
“It’s not prejudice. We really should mull over Ashley’s words.” Samuel tried to defend Josie.
“Ashley gave me the photo album, and I had someone check the handwriting. It was indeed Zachary’s.Moreover, before marrying Jo. Zachary came to see me and told me to take good care of her.Otherwise, he would take Josie away from me.”
Josie glanced at Samuel nervously. The kidnappers were very bad to me when I was kidnapped backthen. It was Zachary who protected me and almost got himself killed.”
Samuel pointed to his stomach bitterly. “This jackass almost stabbed me to death.”
Josie was even more shocked. She wanted to lift Samuel’s shirt to look at his wound.
“Jo!” Henry’s face darkened as he reached out to pull Josie to his side. “There’s nothing interestingabout looking at scars!”
“What’s wrong with having my girlfriend look at my scars?” Samuel’s temper flared up as he lifted hisshirt, insisting that he’d show Josie his scars.
Josie was utterly embarrassed. Her gaze suddenly fell upon Samuel’s obvious Apollo’s belt.Immediately, she turned her head away before saying, “Well… Let’s just focus on more importantmatters, shall we?”
The dark expression on Henry’s face remained the same as he sent a warning look at Samuel.
Inexplicably, he felt a sense of crisis. It was a relatively strong one, indeed.
It has been three years since I last saw Zachary, around the time you were tricked. Samuel was nolonger mad at Henry. “The last time I saw him was before the wedding. Henry lowered his head, feelinga little uncomfortable.
He was afraid that Josie would really abandon him.
“For the past three years, I have always sent someone to find him, for fear of him hurting Josie andAshley again.” Thaven’t seen him at all, not even once. Josie shook her head.
In the past three years, she had never seen Zachary, except for the memory of being kidnapped tenyears ago.
“I will never allow him to see you, Henry said in a low voice. He once thought he had protected Josiewell. “Henry, think about my proposition. Let’s work together, okay?” Josie asked as she sat by the bed.She then added, “Spike killed my parents, and I don’t plan on letting him off the hook. He must get thepunishment he deserves.
Josie would feel sorry for her parents if she didn’t get rid of Spike once and for all.
Til take care of this for you, just give me some time… Henry’s voice was hoarse as he looked at Josienervously. Tll take care of it really soon. Trust me.

Chapter 125
He had been planning something for years, and that was to get rid of Spike completely so that hewould never be threatened by Spike for the rest of his life anymore.
“Is there a reason why he was able to threaten you in such an unscrupulous manner? Can you tell mewhat dirt he has on you?” Josie wanted to know what Henry was afraid of
From Josie’s understanding of Henry, he was never afraid of Spike at all.
However. Henry looked away and said nothing.
Jósie sighed. “Henry is still keeping things to himself…”
Lifting his hand, Henry held Josie’s wrist. “No matter what happens, just believe in me one more time.”
Josie wanted to withdraw her hand. “I will no longer sit still and wait for my end.”
Right now, she now had a clear objective. She had to fight back.
As of now, in order to disrupt Spike’s plans, you will need to remarry me.” Henry refused to let go ofJosie.
“Can you be any more shameless, Henry Gibson? You’re taking advantage of the crisis now!” Samuelsaid, frowning heavily.
“Samuel, even if you’re my best friend, I will never let you have Josie.” Henry and Samuel began to buttheads again.
“Then don’t treat me as your friend. Thank you.” Samuel refused to back down.
“Even if this disrupts Spike’s plans, can you be sure he won’t find another way to go after us?” Josiecouldn’t understand why she had to remarry Henry.
“Well… Spike’s attention would come back to me…” If Henry hadn’t agreed to divorce her on impulse,Spike wouldn’t have noticed Josie at all.
In the past three years, he had always felt that he had protected Josie well
“At least, Spike didn’t place his attention on Josie, but rather on me, Henry thought to himself.
Then marry me. Flustered, Samuel looked at Josie.
He didn’t want Josie to have anything to do with Henry anymore.
“Josic, I don’t think involving someone as impulsive and rash as Samuel in this matter is a good idea.”Henry was also feeling flustered.
If Josie had married someone else, he wouldn’t dare to think about the crazy things he might do.
He would rather hurt each other than let Josie leave him.
“Henry, this would never happen if the Gibson family hadn’t adopted you in the first place!”
Since both of them were still mad, they were leaving scatty remarks toward each other.
*Tve divorced and now I have the right to choose, Henry. After dealing with Spike, everything in theGibson family is yours. You can’t be too greedy. You can’t have everything you want, Henry. I won’tagree on remarrying you. Josie stood up and took Samuel’s hand. This was the first time she hadmustered her courage to make things clear with Henry. I’ve always been a very selfish person. WhatSamuel gave me was exactly what I needed.
After a long silence, Josie spoke again. “We’re both adults. This is purely a mutual benefit relationship.”

Henry sat on the hospital bed, his hands trembling beyond his control.

The person who messed with him first was clearly Josie..
Josie was the one who claimed to love him but also gave up on their relationship easily.
“I can give what he provided you. As I’ve said before, I’ll change. I’ll make it up to you.” Henry’s voicewas trembling. The feeling of helplessness lingered around him.
He only wanted Josie to give him another chance.
He was sure he was able to treat her really well.

Josie took Samuel’s hand and walked out of the ward.
Samuel stayed silent throughout the conversation. He was not afraid that Josie would use him tostimulate Henry. He was only scared that Josie would let go of his hand when they left the ward,
Josie had claimed that what he gave her was exactly what she needed.
Samuel knew that in such a short time, it was impossible for Josie to get out of the previousrelationship and fall in love with him. It was most likely a pleasant feeling for him or a feeling of
dependency on him.
In the past, Samuel disliked guilt–tripping Josie just to keep her by his side.
However, he felt that as long as Josie remained with him, he didn’t care what method he used.
Josie’s eyes turned red, while she was breathing heavily.
Even if she knew Henry had his own unspeakable circumstances, she couldn’t bear to think about thedays she spent with him within those three years after they were married.
Every day of the past three years was a torment to her.
Henry had been gradually driving her insane, to the point where she finally broke down.
“Jo…” Samuel tried to comfort Josie, but she seemed to be resisting everything.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have dragged you into this mess.”
Samuel shook his head. “You don’t have to apologize to me.”
“I’ve been in a mess these days. All I want is to find out the truth about my parents‘ deaths, gather allthe evidence, and let Spike serve his punishment.” Josie sat on the bench and clenched her fingers.novelbin
She didn’t want to, nor did she have time to think about relationships.
Nonetheless, she was not an idiot, Josie knew Samuel treated her well.
She was slowly relying on Samuel, which was actually a very dangerous thing to do,
