Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201 

Jessica, who was sitting next to Quinton, grew restless. “7.5 million dollars… Is this jewelry worth that much?” 

Quinton curled his l*ps and smiled meaningfully. “This jewelry isn’t worth 7.5 million dollars, but Josie is worth 

more than that.” 

Jessica was a little confused. “Huh? How does this have anything to do with Josie?” 

“This jewelry is an inheritance from Hayden, Josie’s father, which will eventually be passed down to the future daughter–in–law of the Gibson family. That’s how Kathy got this it. After Kathy died, Josie brought it to the Gibson family and got married to Henry. In short, this jewelry should be returned to Josie.” Although the jewelry would eventually return to Josie, the person who handed it to Josie was very important. 

To Henry and Samuel, the jewelry would be the starting step of their battle for Josie. 

In the end, Henry chose to let go and gave Samuel the opportunity. 

“I don’t understand…” Jessica was still a little confused. 

“Just forget it if you don’t understand.” Quinton did not want Jessica to understand it either. “If you marry me, I won’t lose you like Henry.” 

Jessica froze for a moment before holding Quinton’s arm tightly. “Marry me, then. Let’s get the marriage certificate secretly.” 

“Aren’t you afraid of being exposed by the media and affecting your career?” Quinton raised his eyebrows. 

“Husband is more important than career.” Jessica wore an innocent expression on her face. 

Quinton raised his chin with satisfaction. “Are you not afraid that I’m a poor guy who needs your financial support?” 

“I can afford it.” Jessica thought if she had been staying in the industry, she could still support the two of them without difficulty even though she could not make a lot of money. 

Quinton grabbed Jessica’s fingers and slowly tightened his grip. 

“Idiot…” he thought.

“I’m thankful that… you don’t hate me.” Jessica spoke in a low voice while lowering her head. It was as though she did not dare to let Quinton hear her. 

Unlike other women, she had signed a contract with Caligo Club and had an “easy” reputation. 

She admitted that she was dirty and deserved no one. However, she did not want to let Quinton go. 

No one had ever treated her like Quinton… 

“Do you think I’m good?” Quinton raised his eyebrows and asked. “I’m evil in Josie’s eyes, and she even wishes “for my death. I’m indeed not a good man. So, we are perfect matches and should keep ourselves from harming 

people.” 

Jessica’s eyes turned red. She lowered her head and remained silent for a long time. 

How could she not be moved? 

Quinton was always like that. He seemed to care less about everything, yet he was more thoughtful than anyone. 

Since Quinton rescued Jessica from Caligo Club, she knew there was no way she could disassociate herself from him anymore. 

Even if Quinton was married and had children one day, she could not resist him as long as he refused to let her go. 

That was why she promised Hazel to set Quinton up to give herself a chance to give up.” 

She was afraid that she would fall for him deeply and doomed herself. 

Fortunately, God was fair to Jessica. 

Although Quinton had offended Spike and could not secure any job now, she was willing to work hard for Quinton and herself. 

Moreover, Quinton said he would marry her and be with her. 

“Mr. Taibbi, Mr. Turner won the jewelry set for 7.5 million dollars. What are you going to win for Jessica?” 

Upon hearing tha, someone behind them ridiculed, “Jessica? Does she even worthy of that?”

Quinton found it annoying. He would have hit the person if it weren’t for the charity dinner. 

Jessica frowned and clutched Quinton’s hand tightly, not wanting him to listen to those filthy words. 

“Do you like this porcelain bottle set?” Quinton lifted his chin at Jessica. 

Kyle stared at Quinton from behind him and intended to take the opportunity to raise the bid. 

“The starting price is 54,000 dollars.” 

Hearing that, Kyle mocked, “I can see Mr. Taibbi is really out of money. These porcelain bottles that are worth around 15,000 dollars are only auctioned for tens of thousands of dollars. Do you intend to use them for coffee?” 

With a smile, Quinton said nothing but raised his paddle. “120 thousand dollars.” 

Kyle quickly raised the bid. “150 thousand dollars.” 

“225 thousand dollars.” Quinton raised his paddle again. 

“Quinton, this porcelain bottle set is only worth 15 thousand dollars the most,” Jessica reminded Quinton in a low voice, thinking that none in the action venue would buy the porcelain bottles and that it was not worth spending 225 thousand dollars on such useless items. 

“300 thousand dollars!” Sitting behind the duo, Kyle raised the price arrogantly and waited for Quinton to raise 

the bid.

“What an idiot,” Quinton sneered inwardly as he spoke. “Use them to enjoy your coffee for 300 thousand dollars, 

then.” 

“300 thousand dollars once…” 

“300 thousand dollars twice!” 

“Congratulations on your new auction item for 300 thousand dollars, Mr. Roth!” 

Quinton glanced at Jessica. He could not help but chuckle. 

Jessica immediately understood that Quinton had fooled Kyle. 

Jessica tried har to hold back her laughter, and her stomach hurt as she exclaimed inwardly, “How funny! He 

wonthe trash with 300 thousand dollars.” 

“Quinton!” he shouted angrily once he realized that Quinton had fooled him. 

Quinton ignored him and retorted casually, “Are you short of money, Mr. Roth? How about I borrow you? Your father would be happy to see you bought a coffee set for 300 thousand dollars.” 

“Just you wait!” Kyle gritted his teeth angrily. 

After Quinton regained his composure, he looked at the auction item on the auction table and asked in a deep voice, “Do you like that necklace?” 

Jessica shook her head nervously. Even though she liked the necklace, she forced herself to say she did not like 

1. it. 

“The starting price is 750 thousand dollars.” 

It was a luxurious and elegant heart–shaped diamond necklace that perfectly matched Jessica’s temperament. 

“1.2 million dollars.” Quinton raised the paddle.
