Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering by Susie Cecillia
Chapter 32

Chapter 32 

Josie felt as though she was struck by lightning. After a long moment, she finally moved gingerly. 

It was sheer coincidence that she met Henry in here. 

“Mr. Gibson, what a coincidence!” Ezra felt a little awkward about changing the subject. “Surely you jest. Jo isn’t that sort of 

person.” 

“Yes, what a coincidence.” Henry snorted and focused his gaze on Josie. “Do you think you know her very well? How can you be sure that she’s not that kind of person?” 

Henry was provoking Ezra on purpose. 

“Ezra, let’s go somewhere else.” Josie’s face paled, but she forced herself to smile as she tried to escape. 

Ezra looked at them and felt troubled. “If Jo was really married, he must have been a bad person to make her want to divorce him.” 

Josie was not the type of person who would marry whimsically. 

When Ezra was in college, he had chased after Josie for a long time, only for Josie to say a single word to him. 

Smiling, Josie glanced at Ezra gratefully. “Let’s go.” 

Ezra nodded and looked at Henry apologetically. “I’m sorry, Mr. Gibson. Jo and I will be leaving now.” 

Henry stood there, the veins in his hands bulging. 

The air pressure turned low and terrifying 

“What did he mean by a bad person!” he wondered. 

“Mr. Gibson, they have arrived. Shall we go up first?” Henry’s assistant, who came looking for him, was startled by the pressure he exuded. 

“Tell them I can’t come because there’s something I need to take care of.” Henry turned around and walked out of the restaurant, feeling irritated. 

Shocked, the assistant thought, “But you’re already here… 

However, she dared not question Henry. 

“I need you to investigate someone. Henry suddenly halted after taking a few steps. “Ezra Hunter, a business administration graduate of the class of 2015 of Acocester University in Hofcaster. 

Henry remembered that man. In fact, he remembered all the men who loitered around Josie 

Clenching his fingers again, Henry had no idea why he was so out of control. His words only served to push Josie further and further away from him. 

When he saw Josie with another man, he was unable to rein in his emotions. 

“Yes, Mr. Gibson.” 

Meanwhile, Josie and Ezra were strolled down a food street near Acocester University, Hofcaster. The familiar sights were the same, but the two who walked down the street were no longer the same people they once were. 

“It’s been years since we graduated.” 

Chapter 32 

Josie nodded in agreement. “Yeah.” 

I heard that the 15th and 16th graduating classes are going to hold a reunion. Are you going?” Ezra fumbled for a conversation topic. 

“I’m not sure.” Josie did riot wish to participate in such activities. 

That’s right. Everyone is busy now, but the class reunion is also a social network, so we should attend. Ezra bought Josie some roasted chestnuts. He remembered that Josie loved it. 

Josie took the offered snack and stopped walking. 

“Even a former schoolmate who hadn’t seen me in three years remembered what I liked to eat, she thought. 

Jo. is Henry really not your brother?” Ezra was a little confused. “Why would he say that Josie cheated on him in marriage?” he wondered. 

Yeah. I don’t know him very well.” Josie nodded. 

Although she had been with Henry for so many years, they only grew more estranged as time passed. 

What was more, she had signed a confidentiality agreement not to divulge the information to outsiders. 

Only 

“That’s strange. I recall back then…” Ezra wanted to say something but stopped. “Forget it, let’s not talk about him. It’s right that you got out of a marriage that wasn’t working out for you. There’s nothing wrong with doing so. Don’t feel too bad about it.” 

Although Ezra did not know what was going on, he still made an attempt to comfort Josie. 

Josie’s eyes reddened at having an unfamiliar person trying to comfort her. Thank you, Ezra.” 

“It’s the least I could do as a friend,” said Ezra. It’d be better if they could be closer. 

“It’s so nice of you, anyway.” Josie smiled at Ezra. 

Thankfully, Ezra had helped her out today. Otherwise, Josie had no idea how she would have dealt with Henry. 

Josie slowly loosened her fingers that she had not realized were clenched. 

She had attempted to disguise her emotions, but the coldness had managed to spread out. 

‘Cheated on him… Did Henry really think I cheated on him during our marriage?” she wondered. 

Ding! 

Suddenly, Josie’s phone vibrated as she received a text message. 

Josie took a look and found it was from Charles. 

Charles had called her several times, but Josie had not answered his calls. Thus, he decided to text her instead. 

[Jo, this is urgent. Please reply when you see this. It has something to do with your parents‘ car accident.] 

Josie lost her grip on the bag of roasted chestnuts. The bag of chestnuts fell to the ground, rolling everywhere. 

Josie stopped breathing and looked up at Ezra with a pale face. “I’m sorry. Something came up at home. I’ll treat you some other day. 

Before Ezra could offer to send Josie off, the latter had already turned around and bolted. 

Meanwhile, at Gibson Corporation, Charles‘ assistant reminded him in a low voice, “Mr. Larson, your phone is ringing.

Josie nodded in agreement. “Yeah 

I heard that the 15th and 16th graduating classes are going to hold a reunion. Are you going?” Ezra fumbled for a conversation topic. 

I’m not sure. Josie did not wish to participate in such activities.

Chapter 32- 

Smiling, Charles gestured at his assistant to keep quiet. He was waiting for Josie’s second call. 

Always acting so proud and indifferent. That holier–than–thou attitude, Well, the time has come for her to beg me he #thought. 

As expected, Josie called again. 

Jo. I was just… Charles tried to explain as he answered the phone calmly. 

“The message you sent. What do you mean by it?” Josie only cared about the truth behind her parents‘ car accident. 

Josie was not a fool. The car accident all those years ago was not actually an accident. 

The other car had deliberately headed their way, 

If her mother, Kathy, and her father, Hayden, hadn’t pushed her out of the car, she would have died in the accident as well. 

After the incident, Josie suffered a great shock, and her anxiety disorder began from then on. 

She learned from John that someone had tampered with her father’s car. 

back 

Obviously, someone did not want her father to go back to the Gibson family. 

“I can’t tell you over the phone. Can we meet somewhere? Jo, this isn’t a small matter. The fewer people know, the better,” Charles said warily. 

“I can meet up now!” Josie was anxious for more leads. There were more clues that she couldn’t find. 

She was aware that Charles could not be completely trusted, but she could not let a clue slip through her fingers. 

Charles smiled. “We’ll meet at Cote Restaurant. I’ll wait for you there.” 

“Okay” 

After hanging up the phone, Charles sent a message to Ashley. “She took the bait.” 

In a restaurant on the coast, Madelyn had returned from her trip to the shopping mall to find everyone else gone. 

After searching around, Madelyn called Ezra. “Ezra, where are you guys?” 

“Jo and I went headed to the neighborhood of the university for a walk, but something came up, so she left. Ezra was as gentle and polite as ever. 

Madelyn grinned. “So, how did it go, Ezra? Spill the beans!” 

“At the end of the line, Ezra was a little embarrassed as he said, “Jo said she just got divorced. I don’t think I should pressure her now. I don’t mind waiting and taking it slow.” 

Madelyn was stunned. She couldn’t believe Josie actually confessed to being married. “What a silly woman,” she mused. 

“Ezra, I think you and Jo make a fine pair. Good luck!” Madelyn encouraged Ezra. 

“There will be an alumni association meeting soon. I hope you’ll set me up with Jo then.” Ezra truly wanted to spend more time with Josie. 

“Don’t worry. Leave it to me!” Madelyn agreed excitedly. 

Ezra was a gentle and courteous person, and he seemed to be motivated. “He’s way better than Henry!” she thought. 

After hanging up the phone, Madelyn was in a good mood. She hummed as she prepared to look for Josie.

Stunned, Madelyn wondered, “What’s wrong with him?” 

“Mr. Turner, what can I do for you?” Madelyn asked awkwardly. 

Jo won’t pick up my call. I need you to get her to meet me. Samuel got straight to

Rolling her eyes, Madelyn wondered, “What was happening today? Is it Josie’s lucky day? Everyone wants to meet her!”
