Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering by Susie Cecillia
Chapter 122

Chapter 122

At the Frontier Bay Hospital Josie stayed outside the ward and waited for the doctor to treat Henry's wound again before entering.

'He's fine. Don't worry." Sergeant Jennings was the one who accompanied Josie,

Coincidentally, when Josie called the police, it was Sergeant Jennings from the Frontier Bay Police Station who took the call. He happened to have matters to deal with in Frontier Bay.

Zachary: Have you found him?" Josie looked up at Sergeant Jennings,

Not yet, but don't worry. He won't be able to get out of Hofcaster, Caden reassured her.

Ten years ago, I was kidnapped soon after 1 went back to the Gibson residence. Zachary was a gangster hired by that person. At that time. I wouldn't say he was bad-natured. Zachary didn't let anyone bully me and was almost beaten to death for etting me go. That is why I did not mention him in my police statement." Josie recalled the kidnapping ten years ago.

Caden let out a sigh

It was one of Josie's darkest memories.

That year. Josie had just lost her parents and later was kidnapped.

"We'll find him. Caden said.

No one knew what Zachary had experienced and how he had become over the years.

"The scar on Zachary's face was caused by Henry. Henry hurt him while he was rescuing me. I don't know if he was resentful toward me because of that, Josie said.

"Don't overthink it," Caden said.

Josie hugged herself tightly and curled up in the corner. "Sergeant Jennings, do you think every bad person gets the punishment they deserve?"

"No one escapes the web of justice. No matter how powerful he is, his wrongdoings should never be overlooked." Sergeant Jennings comforted Josie. He would make sure to find but the cause of her parent's death.

As for Spike, he would receive the punishments he deserved.

"Jo!"

Samuel hurried to Frontier Bay. His clothes were soaking wet from the rain.

Josie looked up at Samuel and felt even more aggrieved.

"Henry almost died. "Josie could not bear to think whether Henry would survive after Zachary smashed the rock on his head.

"Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. Samuel hugged Josie tightly as he tried to talk her down. His chest tightened. "Henry is one tough man, he will not die so easily."

"It was Zachary. Do you know Zachary? Josie leaned against Samuel's arms and felt a little relaxed. "I was kidnapped that year. Do you..."

She knew that Sarquel had also gone to the scene of the kidnapping, and he was almost stabbed to death.

Chapter 122

Over the years, Josie did not know that Samuel had always been secretly protecting her.

"Zachary?" Samuel frowned at the mention of that name. He knew that it was Zachary who stabbed him that year. "He's still alive?"

"I don't know why he appeared out of the blue, and I couldn't even decide whether he was an enemy or a friend. He was the one who reminded me to leave the house to find you that day." Josie was confused. She could not figure it out.

She could not understand Zachary's hatred toward Henry.

Zachary had been away hiding for so many years that it would not make sense for him to kill anyone.

However, at the back of the mountain, Zachary looked at Henry in such a way that he was going to kill him.

Jo, I'm here. Don't be afraid," Samuel said while he comforted Josie in his arms.

At least this time, Josie called him immediately after the accident.

Their relationship no longer felt distant.

Samuel thought everything was worth it as long as Josie trusted him.

There is not much to worry about the patient. The wound was torn, and we had given him sutures. It is easy to be infected. again, so you must take good care of it. Don't act recklessly just because you're young!" The doctor reminded Josie and walked out of the ward.

Henry was still in a coma and his fever had not subsided.

Samuel wrapped Josie in a bath towel and carefully wiped her wet hair.

Henry was struggling in the hospital bed. Whenever he had a fever, he would always have nightmares.

Josie knew that Henry was most afraid of having a fever.

"Henry said that my parents car accident and their death had nothing to do with him. Should I trust him?" Josie washed the towel, skillfully wiped the palms of Henry's hands, and then put it on his forehead. She had been taking care of Henry for three years without help from others.

Samuel's heart ached as he watched Josie. He wished Josie had given up on Henry, but he did not have the heart to frame or lie about Henry. "I know Henry; we grew up together. He returned to the Gibson family at the age of eight. As for the kind of person he is... I know it best, Samuel explained.

After a long moment of silence, Samuel spoke, again. "He was only 18 years old when your parents had an accident. Grandpa John treated him well. He was not an ungrateful person. It was impossible for him to set up your parents with Spike. At most he was threatened by Spike."

Josie's hand froze while washing the towel, washing the towel. She turned to look at Samuel,

Josie felt even more u

re upset as it was only how that she came to learn about it from Samuel.

If Samuel really wanted her to give up on Henry, he would be better off not explaining on the latter's behalf.

Upon hearing that Henry was innocent, she felt even sorry for him

"What should I do with Samuel now?" Josie pondered.

Chapter 122

"Your hair is also wet. Walking to the sofa, Josie took a bath towel and covered Samuel's head, carefully wiping his hair. Samuel was a little stiff. In the next moment, he raised his hand to pull Josie into his arms. "Are you worried about me?

"Well..." Josie did not admit otherwise.

Hearing that. Samuel did not say a word. He knew that Josie was feeling sorry for him. It was just a gesture done out of guilt and gratitude, not out of love. However, Samuel considered that good progress.

Clank!

Just as Samuel was about to say something, the glass by the patient's bed fell to the ground.

Clearly, Henry had awakened. None of them knew when he woke up.

Samuel rolled his eyes and pulled Josie into her embrace intentionally. He refused to let go of her. He did not care if it would anger Henry.

"What are you doing here? I don't want to see you," Henry exclaimed, his voice sounding hoarse. He was displeased by the presence of Samuel.

"Josie is mine, Henry voiced inwardly.

"Jo... It hurts." Henry was about to lose his temper, so he held back his anger and pretended to look miserable.

Samuel let go of Josie and walked to the bed. "You can call for the doctors if it hurts. What's the use of calling my girlfriend?" "Shut up, Samuel, Henry snapped. He was hurting so badly that cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Have some water." Josie walked to the bedside and poured Henry a glass of water.

"I don't have the strength... Henry looked at Josie pitifully.

He was, obviously, asking Josie to feed him.

"I'll do it! My good friend, I could take care of you till we're old." Samuel was at the forefront of it. How could Henry make Josie do everything?

Seeing that, Josie was at a loss. She took a deep breath and thought, "As expected of Samuel. Only he would dare to say that "You're such an eyesore, Henry snorted.

Samuel faked a cough. Henry drank only a few sips before the water spilled all over his shirt. "Did you do that on purpose?" the latter questioned.

Samuel felt wronged by Henry's questioning tone.

Almost no one could tell that Henry was great at acting.

"Let me do it," Josie said. Henry's tactics Had worked as he expected, Josie was tired of watching the hostile exchanges between the two.

"I see that you've been with Ashley for a long time. Her manipulative behaviors can be contagious."

Samuel had spoken the wrong thing at the wrong time.

Chapter 122

His provoking words had made Henry choke for real.

Looking at Josie nervously, Henry was a little panicked. "Jo, L.

"Ashley will come to take care of you in a while. I'll leave when she's here," Samuel continued. Josie lowered her head. Everyone in the film crew knew about it, and Ashley must have also heard about it. She must be afraid to hurry to see Henry in the hospital out of guilt.

"Jo! "You stay with me..." Henry did not want Josie to leave.

Samuel disagreed. "Henry, don't go too far. Jo is in poor health. She has no time to take care of you. I'll take her home."

"In that case, I'll come with you..." Henry did not want to stay in Frontier Bay alone.

Seeing that Henry was about to get up, Josie frowned and said in a harsh voice, "Lie down."

Henry did not dare to utter a word and lay back obediently.
