Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 14

Henry's face darkened instantly. He threw another agreement on the table. "Okay. Sign this agreement too."

Josie looked at the agreement with tears in her eyes. Her fingers were shaking.

It was a confidentiality agreement. Josie would breach the agreement if she told anyone that she and Henry had been married before.

The price of breaching the agreement was to give up the shares she had.

Josie thought, "Henry has been wary of me all the time..."

Moreover, Henry was determined to eliminate everything they ever shared.

It was as if Josie had never existed before.

"Josie, I'll give you one last chance. Think wisely. Don't regret it after the divorce!" Henry had many ways to make Josie regret it.

"Mr. Gibson, you've overthought." Josie signed the confidentiality agreement without hesitation.

She thought it was not a confidentiality agreement but a way to humiliate her.

Henry had humiliated her.

"Why do you suddenly have to divorce me?" Henry took the agreement and was, to his surprise, dissatisfied.

In his memory, Josie had always been submissive and obedient. He did not understand why she was suddenly so determined to divorce him. "Is it because of Ashley? I think we need to..."

"No, it's because I have someone I like." Josie shook her head. She added, "Henry, I didn't return to the Gibson family until I was 15 years old. You know I had been withdrawn from others for a long time. I haven't met any other men before, so I thought I loved you."

Henry choked as if he had a fishbone in his throat.

"Before I met him, I didn't know that if you're really in love with someone, you won't let him or her suffer any grievance," muttered Josie. It seemed as if she were talking to herself.

Though the person was made up, Josie hoped such a person really did exist.

"Who is that person?" Henry clenched the agreement in his hand.

"Does it matter?" Josie smiled. After signing all the agreements, she got up to leave. "Mr. Gibson, please choose a time. Let's go to the City Hall to get the divorce certificate."

Henry watched Josie leave and threw the agreement to the ground.

He thought, "How could Josie fall in love with someone else? How could she say she loved me because she had never met another man before? What kind of man could be better than me?"

"Henry..." Ashley, who had been standing outside, quickly pushed the door and walked in when she saw Josie leave.
