Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 

Quinton’s face darkened at once. His reflex was to hit Josie. 

This woman had been testing his patience over and over again.. 

Try to touch her and see Samuel stretched out his hand to shield Josie. He stared at Quinton. 

“Heh!” Quinton brushed off the petals scattered on his body and sneered. 

Jo, is there any misunderstanding between you and Quinton?” Hazel tried to smooth things over. “Misunderstanding? Do people with sound minds bring white lilies to visit patients?” Josie refused to admit defeat. Hazel’s brows furrowed. “Ha, Quinton grew up abroad, so he can be unfamiliar with the traditions of Hofcaster.” 

“Growing up abroad was not an excuse. It isn’t about not knowing local traditions. People with intellectual problems wouldn’t even do such things.” Josie was a little out of control. 

She could not face Quinton rationally now. 

How could she keep her cool when Spike had something to do with both of her parent’s death? 

Quinton remained silent. He licked the corners of his lips and sneered. 

With his hands in his pockets, Quinton turned around, glanced at Hazel, and stormed off. 

“Wait.” Josie stopped Quinton. 

n his tracks. 

Quinton stopped in his tracks. 

Josie threw the bunch of flowers at him. Take your flowers. You need it more than ever.” 

Quinton frowned and left without looking back. 

Hazel glanced at Henry meaningfully as if she was blaming him for his impulses. “Haven’t you been holding back all these years? Why did you choose to fight Quinton today?” Hazel grumbled to herself. 

“Quinton!” Hazel quickly chased after him. “Quinton, don’t be mad at your brother. He was injured because of you, and he must have had complaints.” 

“Complaints? Why does he have the right to complain?” Quinton sneered and looked at Hazel ironically. “It’s not surprising that you and your son are birds of a feather.“. 

Hazel took a deep breath and clenched her fists, still maintaining a smile on her face. “Ha… Quinton, don’t be angry. Don’t let your father know about this. He’s been busy every day 

“You’re so worried that my father knows? Even if he does, I’m sure he will be on my side. He wouldn’t care if Henry was alive or dead, Quinton yelled impatiently and ignored Hazel. 

Hazel’s eyes were full of coldness. “This uneducated little prick… she thought to herself. 

She sneered and wanted to see how long Quinton would last with his arrogance. 

At the ward, Ashley felt embarrassed and had yet to recover from panic. 

She was also afraid that Henry would probe her questions to reveal her secret.

Chapter 124 

“Henry, what do you want to eat? I’ll get it for you.” Ashley asked cautiously. 

“Ashley, you should get going. I need to speak to Jo. Henry wanted Ashley to leave. 

“Henry. I heard that it was Zachary, right?” Ashley burst into tears. “Henry, I’m not going back. I’m afraid. 

She would always have the right words to get Henry to feel guilty. 

“The police have gone after him. Zachary wouldn’t dare to go back to the hotel again. Listen to me. You should return home.” Henry comforted Ashley in a somber voice, knowing that the latter was afraid of Zachary 

“Josie, please. Let me stay. Zachary is my… He’s my brother. He is crazy. He used to lock me up and abuse me. He was coming after me. Please… Ashley pleaded. 

Seeing that Henry insisted on asking her to leave, Ashley had to go to Josie. 

Josie glanced at Henry in shock Zachary… Zachary was Ashley’s brother?” 

“What a damn coincidence!” Josie exclaimed inwardly. 

Zachary’s father, Jeremy, adopted Ashley, Henry explained. 

“Jeremy… was one crazy person. He adopted me just to abuse me. Over ten years ago, I was only twelve years old. He… He… Ashley stammered. She stepped back in horror, afraid to recall the dark memories of her childhood. 

Josie took a deep breath and thought Ashley’s words were unbelievable. 

“Why is Zachary coming after you?” Josie frowned. 

“I was almost dead when the police and the Women’s Union found me. If it weren’t for them, I would have died. The police took Jeremy away, and Zachary forced me to commit perjury in court, but I didn’t.” 

Jeremy was sentenced to ten years‘ imprisonment and eventually died in prison. Zachary dropped out of school early. He hated me for not protecting the devil in court. He had always thought that it was me who killed his father, and he hates me for that.” 

Ashley was trembling. Her fearfulness did not seem like an act 

“It’s up to you to stay, Josie said irritably. Ashley had moved out of her family. It would seem a little unkind of Josie if she did not agree. 

Josie would feel sorry if anything was to happen to Henry again. 

“Have Thomas pick you up. It is safer in the hotel, Henry said, but he did not seem willing to have Ashley stay. 

Henry had to consider Josie’s feelings, and his head was an absolute mess. He really did not want Ashley to be there. 

If truth be told, Henry wanted to be alone with Josie, so Samuel had better get out of there quickly. 

Ashley bit her lips with her trembling breath. She was devastated when Henry insisted on her leaving, even after having to explain herself. 

Was Henry running out of compassion for her? 

“No! That could not happen!” Ashley thought to herself. 

“Henry… Ashley also thought it was meaningless to force her wishes on others. She thought it would be better to leave to make Henry feel guilty. “You take good care of yourself. I’ll come to see you tomorrow.”
