Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180
“I have nothing but the inheritance my mother gave me after her death. But do I really want Henry’s things? Do I really want Josie and Gibson Corporation? I myself don’t even know who I am angry with. I simply dislike Henry. I hate him and Hazel, and I want him to grovel at my feet and see him in a sorry state. My life is destroyed by Henry’s existence. My mom didn’t need to die. It was Hazel who sent photos of the paternity test and Henry’s pictures to my home and drove my mom to suicide. Over the years, I lived the way Spike wanted me to live with my hatred, but I have never thought about what I wanted, he mused
“Quinton! You’re nothing without your dad!” Jessica was still provoking Quinton.
Quinton held Jessica’s head and kissed her, preventing her from speaking further. “Shut up. Go back with me.”
Carrying her in his arms, Quinton forcibly took her away.
“Quinton, you’re a scu mbag
Quinton was stunned for a moment before he lowered his head and smiled. “Yes, I’m a scu mbag
Don’t hate me if I ruin you, Jessica muttered and snuggled into Quinton’s arms,
However, Quinton didn’t hear what she said. With a frown, he asked, “What did you say?”
“Quinton! Can you run away with me?” Jessica asked, hanging from Quinton’s neck. “Do you dare to run away with me?”
“Don’t stay in this dirty and terrible city,” she continued internally.
Quinton held Jessica, who was about to slide down, in place and sighed resignedly. “You said you were good at drinking”
“You don’t dare to. You are reluctant to give up on your father’s assets. You want those things that don’t belong to you,” Jessic
cried.
She didn’t know why she hurt so much.
After all, she took Hazel’s money and ruined Quinton. It was a win-win situation.
Besides, Quinton was a scu mbag, so why was she in so much paire
“Enough, stop it. Are you in a bad mood?!” After getting out of the elevator, Quinton coaxed in a rare show of gentleness, “What do you want? I’ll buy you everything, okay?”
Pressed against Quinton, Jessica jumped and wrapped her arms around his neck, making him carry her.
Quinton glanced around the parking lot coldly and reached out to press Jessica’s head against his chest for fear that the pa para zzi would capture her face.
She loved being an actress and the entertainment industry, so she couldn’t afford to have any scandals.
Quinton also wanted to protect her as she was his woman, after all.
“Quinton, can you take me out to have fun? How about on a yacht? By the sea…” Jessica whispered to Quinton, pressed against him.
“Huh? Are you not busy?” Quinton got in the car and helped Jessica fasten her seat belt.
“My manager is being cyberbullied, and some fans even hurt her. No one cares about me now. Can you take me there?” Jessica pouted, acting coquettish.

Chapter 180
Quinton was helpless. He really didn’t know what to do regarding Josie.
“Okay, I’ll take you there. How about tomorrow?”
Biting her lips, Jessica turned to look out of the window, a little flustered. “Actually, it doesn’t need to be so soon.”

Quinton laughed in exasperation, “Jessica’s usually so sensible. What a big contrast after drinking. However, I have no plans of changing her with someone else for the time being. I don’t even know why myself.”
“Quinton, were you the one who deleted those scandalous posts about me on the internet?” Jessica asked softly.
“Yes.” Quinton didn’t deny it.
“Why did you let me stay by your side for so long?” Jessica asked, looking out of the window. I’ve been with many men and slept with many people around you. Are you not afraid they will laugh at you if I stay by your side for a long time?”
Quinton focused on driving and didn’t speak until they reached a traffic junction. “It’s none of their business.”
Jessica chuckled and gazed at Quinton’s side profile from the reflection of the car window,
“Every woman will love his face,” she mused.
“Mr. Taibbi, you’re so rebellious, yet so obedient.” Jessica satirized Quinton.
Although deep down, he had a rebellious personality, he obeyed Spike’s words and lived his life according to Spike’s wishes.
Meanwhile, in the gang. Zachary collapsed on the ground after sustaining injuries.
“Are you going to admit your mistakes?” Silas exerted all his strength and slammed a bat against Zachary’s back.
Zachary gritted his teeth stubbornly and bore with the pain, refusing to admit it.
He refused to obey.
Spike narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile, “You refuse to admit your mistakes?”
“He wants my life. Why can’t I fight back? Zachary looked like a wild wolf that could not be tamed.
“Do you know if Mr. Taibbi hasn’t saved you, you should be in prison now? Silas shouted darkly, kicking Zachary.
Zachary endured the pain and stood up. “Mr. Taibbi, I will repay you for helping me, but since Henry wants to kill me, I can’t just let him be.”
“You!” Silas wanted to beat Zachary up again when Spike declared with a glance at Silas, “All right, you can go out first.”
Silas was stunned for a moment. “Spike is asking me to leave them?” he wondered.
However, Silas didn’t dare to say anything more. Feeling a little anxious, he shook his head and left.
“You are brave.” Spike got up and smiled, but Zachary lowered his head and said nothing.
“All right, you can go back first. In the future, you can follow me. On his guard, Spike didn’t reveal anything else.
Zachary was stunned and looked at Spike in astonishment. “Follow you?”
“What? You’re unwilling?” Spike flashed him a smile.
Immediately, Zachary shook his head. “N-No.”

Chapter 180
“Go back to recover first. I’ll give you a week’s leave. After a week, report back here. Spike dabbled in shady business, so everyone who worked for him must be trustworthy,
Evidently, Zachary had passed the test.
Breathing a sigh of relief. Zachary walked out of Spike’s room.
“Mr. Taibbi, is he really trustworthy someone beside Spike asks.
“Keep an eye on him these days Tell me immediately if anything goes wrong” Being a cautious person, Spike naturally wouldn’t trust someone easily.
Zachary passed the first stage of the test, but there was still a few days left to test him.
After leaving the gang. Zachary wanted to go to Josie’s residence, but upon remembering Henry’s words, he stopped in his
tracks.
“Spike is a wary person. It’s impossible that he’ll let me stay by his side and get to know his crucial secrets so easily, he mused.
Thus, he didn’t go to Josie’s residence. Instead Zachary found his usual spot under the bridge and planned to make do with it and stay there for the night.
Spike’s subordinate, in charge of keeping an eye on Zachary, was dumbstruck. He didn’t expect that there were still people living under a bridge.
While in Hofcaster Hospital, Henry received a message from Zachary saying that everything went well.
Henry texted Zachary back: (Act accordingly as planned.] Then he deleted the message immediately.
They didn’t save each other’s mobile phone numbers, but he gave Zachary a SIM card, so they could contact each other conveniently
“Now that Zachary has tentatively gained the trust of Spike, the next thing we need is evidence. Of course. Spike won Zachary critical evidence so easily. Everything needs time. We have to wait. I have to buy enough time to let Josie und treatment in peace, Henry thought.
Closing his eyes slowly, Henry felt his headache intensify.
Ever since he found out that Josie was sick, he had been praying every day that she would get better soon, even if that me letting him suffer the illness in her stead.
Suddenly, someone outside knocked on the door.
Henry put down his phone and frowned at the woman standing at the door.
It was Hazel.
“What are you doing here?”
To see you” Silas had told Hazel that Henry was injured because Spike deliberately asked his men to do it. “He just wanted to teach you a lesson.”
