Chapter 84

Who between Arthur and Ashley was more important to Henry?

Josie could no longer compare herself because she had no place in Henry’s heart.

“Jo!” Henry had a bad headache. “You have to force me at such timing!”

“How could it be me forcing you?” Josie smiled. “Didn’t you force me all the time? Do unto others asyou would have them do unto you.”

Will you come back to me if I post a tweet to clarify?” Henry looked at Josie nervously.

Josie frowned and didn’t know what Henry was thinking. “I can only promise you not to tell Arthur aboutour divorce for the time being

“Okay Henry thought that he had been observing Josic for ten years.

No one knew Josie better than him.

Josie was just deliberately throwing a tantrum. She would listen to whatever he said as long as hecomforted her well.

In the past ten years, Josie had been angry with him sometimes.

When he asked Arthur to send the puppy away back then, Josie hadn’t talked to him for a month.

During the year of taking the college entrance examination, he changed Josie’s tutor, and she wasangry with him for nearly

two months.

She was always like that, and her resentment came and dissipated quickly.

Josie looked at Henry quietly. He actually posted a tweet and also retweeted something about Ashleybeing his fiancée.

It was posted with the following text: [Why didn’t I know I had a fiancée? Ashley is just my youngersister. She is very important to me. As a media person, don’t exaggerate.]

Henry quickly posted the tweet and showed it to Josie. Are you happy?”

Josie looked at Henry silently, thinking that she would have the pleasure of succeeding. However, itturned out to be just a ridiculous desolation.

Henry was so impulsive that he would dare to do anything.

“I’m just curious… What did Ashley look like when you posted this tweet? If I could see it, it would be…a great honor,” Josie smiled and quietly waited for Ashley to come to him. “By the way, isn’t Ashley alsoin the hospital? You’d better stay with her in case she tries to harm herself again.”

“Josie! When are you going to stop being jealous?” Feeling a headache, Henry grabbed Josie’s wrist.Thomas will look after her, Can we have a proper conversation?”

“Sure. What do you want to talk about? Will you answer whatever I ask?” Josie looked at Henryindifferently, no emotions in her eyes.

Jealous?

She had been alone at home, struggling with jealousy and heartbreak for the past three years, and thatprocess was worse than death.

Chapter 84

She had lost control and gone crazy countless times. When she was so emotional that she hatedherself, Henry was nowhere to be found.

He was busy raising Ashley’s popularity.

He accompanied Ashley to attend the events.

When he was standing in the spotlight with Ashley, his every move seemed to Josie as if he wassarcastic about her humility and indispensability.

If had been three years. The damage Henry had brought to her was deep in her bones.

“Did my parents‘ car accident have anything to do with you? Or let me put it in another way did youknow about it?” Josie mentioned the cause of death of Hayden and Kathy again.

Henry’s face darkened instantly, and his eyes were filled with a coldness that made Josie afraid. “Jo,can’t we have a good

chat?”

Tm asking you a question, and you refused to answer it.” Josie’s heart tightened. Henry exuded anoverwhelming aura that

scared her.

“I’ve told you – don’t listen to anyone’s provocation, and don’t rummage through the so–called truth ofthe past. If Charles uses this matter to sabotage our relationship again, I will make him kneel and begfor my mercy.” Henry’s tone was extremely cold. He was never joking

Josie’s fingers clenched in an instant. “Is… Is there love between us?”

“Josie, the world is not as simple as you think. The reason why you can live carefree until now is thatsomeone has carried everything for you. Don’t provoke me.” Henry had originally wanted to talk nicelyto Josic, but she always made him angry.

Josie looked at Henry quietly. She realized that as long as she mentioned the death of Hayden andKathy, Henry seemed to become a different person.

He was either deliberately hiding something, or he was protecting someone.

Henry didn’t want her to know the truth.

Josie squinted. She didn’t respond.

Who would Henry want to protect? His biological fatlier, Spike, or Hazel, the woman who abandonedhim at the orphanage? Josie, of course, was just making an assumption. The truth was yet to berevealed.

She needed evidence.

If the car accident of her parents truly had something to do with Henry, she would send him to prison,no matter what.

Josie accompanied Arthur at the hospital until six in the morning. The housekeeper came to take over,and only then did she get up and go home.

“I’ll give you a ride.” Henry walked into the ward.

“No need,” Josie said indifferently.

Henry put his coat on Josie and looked at her attentively in front of Arthur Mr. Hoffman’s watching.”novelbin

Josie compromised and walked out of the ward. She wanted to return the coat to Henry.

“Put it on. You came here in a hurry last night without wearing a coat. It’s cold in the morning. Go backand change your clothes.

t you apply for leave?” Henry raised his hand to stop Josie.

Tve just joined the company, Josie said calmly.

“Why do you have to make yourself so tired?” Henry was obviously displeased – not that he couldn’tafford to take care of Josic.

When he married Josie three years ago, he didn’t plan to let her get a job. It was Josie who insisted ongoing to work.

“It’s my own business. Josie felt exhausted.

Tll pick you up tonight to visit Arthur” Henry was not discussing with Josie.

“No. I’ll come by myself tonight,” said Josie.

Jor Henry couldn’t stand Josie’s indifference to him. It had been so long. Wasn’t it enough?

“I’m leaving now.” Josie was very determined.

Henry stood by the window of the corridor and watched Josie go downstairs. She threw his coat intothe trash can without hesitation.

Josie!” Henry’s hands clenched in an instant, and the back of his injured hand that had stoppedbleeding cracked again. There was a limit to his patience. He had done everything he could, and Josiestill gave him the cold shoulder!

In the rented place, Samuel opened the door almost instantly when he heard the sound of the oppositedoor. “Where have. you been

His face was pale. He obviously didn’t sleep all night and had been waiting for Josie,

“Why did you wake up so early?” Josie glanced at the time and saw that it was only half past six in themorning.

“I heard you leave last night… Samuel was so tall, but his tone was unusually aggravated.

Not long after Josie left, Henry tweeted to clarify about him and Ashley.

Samuel was scared. He had absolute confidence in everything, but Josie made him feel insecure.Samuel’s eyes were red, and he asked nervously, “Were you with Henry?”

Josie had just promised to consider him and let him wait.

He didn’t want the wait to end too early.

Samuel… Josie’s voice cracked, and she leaned her head on Samuel’s shoulder. She lookedexhausted. “Arthur is sick. It’s terminal bone cancer… He doesn’t have much time left.”

Samuel’s body was so stiff that he didn’t dare to breathe.

Josie just leaned on him. He also wanted to give her enough sense of security and support.

He wanted to hug Josie, but he didn’t dare to.

Lewis said Samuel had always been so bold that he dared to argue with anyone.

But why was he acting like a coward in front of Josie?
