Chapter 163
The door of the room opened, and Josie glanced at Henry. “Ashley?”
“Well, sleep well. I’ll go and have a look. Henry comforted her.
“It can’t be Zachary. She lied.” Josie was afraid that Henry would misunderstand Zachary.
She had been listening to Henry’s conversation on the phone behind the door.
“I know.” Henry smiled helplessly. “My men are keeping an eye on Zachary. I know it’s not him.”
Josie frowned, “Aren’t you trying to provoke her? I’ll go with you.”
It was a good opportunity for her to take revenge on Ashley.
“Jo, it’s time for you to go to bed. Henry was worried that Josie might not have a good rest as her condition did not allow her to stay up late.
“What? Are you feeling bad for her?” Josie asked coldly.
“Jo…” Henry sighed helplessly. “You should rest at home tomorrow morning, then.”
“I’m off tomorrow,” Josie said indifferently.
“Okay.” Henry had to compromise.
Meanwhile, Samuel and Henry were in Hofcaster Hospital
Ashley asked the paparazzi to wait outside in advance. Once Henry came, the paparazzi would take photos of him to continue spreading the rumors.
But when Henry came, he was not alone. He
dine with a woman,
Now, the paparazzi didn’t know what to do. They thought, “Should we cheat the camera?”
“Just take photos of Henry alone.”
“But they are too close. Look at Mr. Gibson, he wraps his arm around the woman’s waist from time to time.”
The paparazzi were confused as they thought, “How should we do it?”
In the ward.
Hearing that Henry had arrived, Ashley began to mentally prepare herself to put on a show.
“Get out! Get out! Don’t come over! Don’t touch me!”
“Don’t come over!
Ashley hugged herself in tears and curled up in the corner, looking like she had recalled something terrible.
The door of the ward opened, and Henry glanced at Ashley.
“Mr. Gibson, you are finally here. Thomas was relieved. When he was about to go out to leave space for Ashley and Henry. he saw Josie following behind.

Chapter 163
His heart was back in his mouth again.
Henry took Josie with him everywhere…
“Henry.” Seeing that it was Henry, Ashley burst into tears.
Josie took a deep breath. If she used all her acting skills in her work, she wouldn’t have to rely on men to feel safe now.
“What’s wrong? Where are you hurt?” Josie walked to stand in front of Henry and blocked Ashley’s view of him.
Ashley was stunned and slowly curled her fingers up tightly.
She thought, “Has Josie gotten smarter? She actually comes with him!”
“Josie…” Ashley said chokingly as she glanced at Josie and cried even harder.
“What’s wrong with her?” Josie pretended not to know anything.
“Ashley was traumatized when she was a child. Zachary’s attack on her will remind her of those bad memories.” Henry explained and walked to the bedside. “Don’t be afraid. Zachary can’t hurt you.”
“Henry!” Ashley was so aggrieved that she wanted to hug Henry.
O
Josie pulled Henry aside. “Hugging him is inappropriate. If you really feel bad, you should just hug me, and I’ll coax you.”
Ashley tightened her grip on the blanket as the look of ruthlessness in her eyes became stronger.
She thought, “Josie! Why is this damn woman everywhere? She’s annoying. I would have gotten rid of her if Hazel hadn’t stopped me from laying a finger on her. Without Josie, I’ll be Mrs. Gibson now!”
Ashley gritted her teeth with hatred. She couldn’t bear it anymore.
Josie looked at Ashley meaningfully and thought, “Is she filled with hatred? Does she feel heartache? It’s still less than one-
tenth of what I had felt in the past
“I heard that when you were adopted by the Long family, you were hurt by Mr. Long?” Josie deliberately mentioned what happened before.
“Ah!” Ashley’s acting skills were really good. She covered her ears and screamed when she heard Josie’s words, as if she was greatly triggered.
This was a show she put on for Henry.
Henry looked at Ashley with a fiery gaze.
H Josie provoked Ashley like this in the past, he would have thought that Josie did it on purpose to hurt Ashley and rubbed salt into her wound.
But now he realized that his distrust of Josie had already hurt Josie so much that it was irreparable.
‘Ms. Yates! You can’t mention that. It will trigger Ashley!” Thomas ran over in a panic, looked at Josie reproachfully, and then looked at Henry.
He wanted to see how Henry would react to it.
Henry’s fingers were clenched so hard that they were trembling and became stiff. “Josie! Don’t mention it again. It’ll trigger
her!”
Chapter 163
He couldn’t be as harsh to Josie as he was anymore.
Josie
looked back at Henry and thought, “Henry is not good at acting. His voice is trembling
Ashley looked at Henry carefully, thinking that Henry was still on her side.
