Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 260

To avoid Spike's men, Hazel, Silas, and Sergio stayed in a remote place with many guards.

Hazel was confident about Ashley. She was willing to let Ashley know where she stayed.

After all, Hazel thought Ashley was stupid.

Not only that, but she also knew Ashley's weakness and knew that she was timid.

As Spike's men had done such a disgraceful thing to Ashley, she would never betray Hazel.

Sergio sat on the couch and said with a low voice, "Hazel."

"Yes?" Hazel stared at her phone while she was eating. She didn't take it seriously.

She seemed to have long been used to treating Sergio with that attitude.

Sergio was massaging Hazel's legs as he asked in a low voice, "Come with me. My brother's business is no different from that of Spike. Both are doing illegal business and will be imprisoned in the future. Can we stop relying on him?"

Hazel frowned, "Pathetic! The return and risk are always proportional to each other. What kind of money do you think is legal behind all the huge wealth?"

Sergio didn't speak anymore. He was a little dejected as if he was deceiving himself.

"Stop massaging me. Do what you need to do and stop bugging me." Hazel disliked Sergio very much.

"Hazel... How much is sufficient?" Sergio asked softly.

Hazel was even more impatient. "What can I do without money these days? Spike ruined my career, and my money was used to pay the liquidated damages for breach of contract. If you can't earn money, how can you support me? Are you thinking of working hard as before to earn less than 150 dollars a month? Do you want me to live in poverty?"

Sergio lowered his head and stopped talking.

Both of them came from a poor village in the old days.

At that time, Hazel didn't dislike him and was happy to talk about their future.

However, everything changed when Hazel went to school in the city.

Sergio and Hazel were husband and wife. Although they didn't have a marriage certificate, they could organize their wedding first in their village.

In that era, Sergio married Hazel with three bags of beans, 110 pounds of wheat, and 450 dollars.

They had their wedding. Everyone in the village knew that Hazel was Sergio's wife.

He also thought that Hazel was his wife. He was lucky to have married the most beautiful girl in the village.

Even Silas was envious of him.

Later, he accompanied Hazel to Hofcaster and worked part-time to earn money for her to go to school. He never complained at all.

Moving on, she went to a nightclub to make money. She worked part-time and flirted with many men. Gradually, she was tempted by the power of money.

She knew that money was omnipotent.

"I also saved some money... Silas also gave me a lot of money. I think... we can find a small city, buy a house, and live a down-to-earth life. Even if you don't want to work for the rest of your life, it's enough for us to survive. I can still work and support you." Sergio looked at Hazel nervously.

They had enough money at that moment.

Besides, Hazel had made a lot of money during those years. Even if she had compensated for the liquidated damages, what she had left was enough to support herself for the rest of her life.

"You're hopeless," Hazel cursed in disgust.

Just as she was about to leave the living room, she saw Ashley coming.

"Ashley, come and sit," Hazel smiled instantly and treated Ashley with utmost care.
