Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 249

In the coffee shop on Santalum Alley, Henry furrowed his brows. "Zachary made the fatal mistake of impulsively finding Ashley, which landed him in Ashley's trap. He is currently being sued by Ashley for... assault."

Josie sat up straight in her chair as a result of her surprise. "Zachary has always been cautious, right?"

She wondered, "How could he act so impulsively?"

"Zachary only stated that Ashley provoked him verbally and tempted him by clarifying his father's crimes."

Samuel knitted his brows too. "It'll be very troublesome."

If Ashley didn't withdraw the lawsuit, Zachary would surely be found guilty because he had a criminal record of harming Ashley.

Henry spoke while leaning against the chair. "Spike's men were unable to find Ashley because she was concealed and guarded by Hazel. I was able to trick her into coming out by calling. Since we can't be there, especially Josie, we simply have to wait and watch what Spike will do."

Henry thought to himself,

"Ashley gave me a call and asked me to question you about Zachary. She may have wanted to threaten me, or she may have desired a fair exchange in which I would withdraw the case and release Thomas." Josie made a guess.

Henry nodded. "That's exactly what she wants."

"What a bad woman..." Samuel clenched Josie's fingers.

"Zachary won't be in any danger, at least." Josie consoled herself.

"Yeah." Henry nodded and ignited a cigarette, but as he thought of Josie, he extinguished it.

"Have you been smoking a lot lately?" Samuel furrowed his brows.

Henry did not respond.

Josie didn't inquire because she wasn't involved with Henry anymore. She no longer could or would care too much about him.

"Take good care of Josie. If you don't withdraw the case, Ashley will not let it slide. Thomas obeys Ashley's every word, so he will definitely hurt Josie if he is released." Henry was worried about Josie's safety.
