Chapter 212
In the hospital.
Not long after Henry left, he came back again with Ashley’s favorite spicy chicken spaghetti.
Obviously, she couldn’t eat these spicy food now.
But Henry asked Zachary to buy it.
“Henry!” Ashley was a little excited and tried to sit up, but she didn’t have the strength.
“Henry, why are you back?” Ashley was so happy.
“I’m worried about you.” Henry was emotionless, but there was a smile on his face.
Ashley’s heart was beating fast, and she felt like she had finally seen the glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.
Henry was finally willing to face her feelings for him.
“Thank you, Henry.” Ashley looked down and said embarrassedly.
“You like spicy chicken spaghetti. I asked someone to buy it.” Henry raised the bed.
Ashley’s heart was racing. She looked at the spicy chicken spaghetti happily and forgot that she couldn’t eat it at
all.
“Henry, you are the best!”
“Get well soon.” Henry sat by the bed. “It’s not convenient for you to eat it. I’ll feed you.”
The happiness came so suddenly that Ashley felt that everything was like a dream.
“Henry, you… Ashley was still a little nervous. “Are you really going to divorce Josie?”
“Sure.” Henry was expressionless. “On the day of your accident, she quarreled with me and didn’t want me to
see you. I never thought she was such an unreasonable and hard–hearted person.”
Ashley’s heart skipped a beat. “That day… Josie was with you?”

“Well, she argued with me in the yard, with total disregard for our image.” Henry was a little unhappy.
Ashley’s heart got even colder. There were surveillance cameras in the courtyard of Henry’s house.
But on second thought, the storage time of the surveillance footage was limited. It had been so long…
“That day, I was very angry. When I left, I shook my arm. Josie fell and told others that I deliberately pushed her, accusing me of domestic violence. She even took away the surveillance footage at home. She said it was for divorce. I think she had wanted to divorce me from the beginning. She only remarried me just for
The more Henry said, the angrier he became.
Ashley’s face turned pale.
Even the surveillance footage was in Josie’s hand, so she couldn’t slander Josie at all.
Josie also had an alibi. She thought, “What should I do now?”
The police were coming soon.
my fortune.”
“Let’s not mention her. She’s too ignorant. I still like sensible and kind women. I’ve had enough of her. She is mean.” Henry frowned and said again. “I didn’t expect her to be so vicious.”
“Henry, don’t be angry. Since Josie doesn’t love you anymore, your marriage won’t work even if you force it.“” Ashley pretended to be nice.
“Yes, I know.” Henry nodded. “You’re sensible, kind, and even do things for her sake. You even clarified things for her before this, which was something I didn’t expect.”
“Henry, don’t say that. Josie is just spoiled.” Ashley clenched her fists nervously. If she knew it wasn’t Josie and deliberately slandered Josie, she would be even more vicious in Henry’s eyes.
She couldn’t do this anymore.
She could only explain to Hazel afterward.
“Come on. Havebite.” Henry deliberately fed Ashley a spoonful of spicy chicken spaghetti.

Ashley didn’t dare to say no to Henry. She took a bite and almost choked herself.
“Cough. Cough, Cough…” She coughed so hard that she almost bleed.
Henry stood up expressionlessly and poured hot water for her. “Be careful. No one will eat your food.”
“Henry, I don’t think I can eat it…”
She thought, “It’s so spicy. Is it because I haven’t eaten for a long time? My stomach hurts so much like it’s burning, as if I’ve swallowed a mouthful of sulfuric acid.”
Henry raised his eyebrows and sniffed the spicy chicken spaghetti.
Zachary hated Ashley so much that he had put a lot of chilies in it.
With a faint smile, Henry patted Ashley on the back.
Looking at Henry’s smile, Ashley suddenly felt that this pain was nothing.
She thought, “Is he smiling at me?”
“Mr. Gibson, we are police officers in Hofcaster. We’re here to ask some questions.” Outside the door, the police
came.
Henry glanced at Ashley. “You’re not feeling well. Didn’t you say you want to hold it off?”
“Henry, I suddenly remembered it. I was afraid that I would forget it after this, so I asked the nurse to call the police.” Ashley felt nervous for no reason.
Henry nodded, left the ward, and stood at the door, still worried.
He was afraid that Ashley would say something she should not.
“Officer, I only remember someone hit me in the back and then I fell into the cellar. I vaguely remembered that it was probably a man with great strength. I didn’t remember his physical characteristics very well, but I saw him with a red bracelet on his wrist with a small tiger tied to it before I fell.”
Ashley was telling the truth this time. She didn’t want Henry to hate her. She had finally managed to build up the image of being trustworthy. She couldn’t destroy it because of Hazel.
Hency raised his eyebrows and thought that Ashley was smart.

If she talked nonsense today, he might not be able to keep her.
After the police left, Henry walked into the ward. “You must be tired today. Don’t eat this spicy chicken spaghetti. I’ll buy it for you when you feel better.”
Ashley was scared when she heard the mention of spicy chicken spaghetti, but she wanted to pretend. “That’s a waste, Henry. You’ve bought it for me.”
Henry raised his eyebrows. “Why don’t you take another bite?”
