Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 263

"What can I do?" Josie asked in a deep voice.

They initially agreed that cooperation seemed to become Henry's job alone.

"You don't have to do anything. You only need to take good care and protect yourself. It's going to be the greatest help for me." Henry smiled.

He flashed a bitter smile.

"Henry, have you ever thought about how you will live your life after everything is over?" Josie looked at Henry.

"Yes, I've thought about it." Henry pretended to be relaxed. "I will probably leave Gibson Corporation and Hofcaster. I will also find a person I love and live with her forever."

Josie was stunned for a moment and smiled. "It's good to start all over."

Henry nodded. "Yeah!"

"I can't eat the food now. It's too late for the housekeeper to cook. Let me take you home. Samuel's food is more delicious, isn't it?" Henry got up and said with a hoarse voice.

He was holding back his emotions.

It was a reality that he must accept.

Josie no longer belonged to him.

"No, it's fine. Samuel will pick me up later, and I'll only have to call him." Josie shook her head.

Henry clenched his fists and nodded. "Sure."

Watching Josie get into Samuel's car, Henry pretended to be calm and stood at the door.

It was not until they disappeared before his sight that his pumped-out emotions finally burst.

It was all his pretentious facade that he put up to protect himself.

"You've been working on it for a long time. What have you done?" Not far away, Zachary came over and smiled at Henry. "I've been watching you for a long time. Let's eat together, okay? Even the leftovers are fine."

Henry ignored Zachary.

"Don't you want to hear about today's mission?"

Upon hearing that, Henry compromised and let Zachary enter the living room.

There was an empty plate and a stir-fried dish on the table, which looked dark and unappetizing.

"Is the pasta cooked?" Zachary teased with a smile and started to serve the meal by himself. "I don't mind. Let me try."

Henry didn't bother to stoop to the same level as Zachary. "You came back alive."

Zachary was heavily wounded and had a strong and pungent smell of blood emanating from him.

"Did you inform Silas' men? Do you think Spike would believe me if it weren't for the mole?" Zachary's eyes darkened. Henry almost got him today.

He accompanied Spike to the trading place. Before the other party came, Silas' people arrived first to compete with Spike for the supply of goods.

If he hadn't blocked an attack for Spike, Spike would have suspected him.

Fortunately, Silas planted some informants under Spike, who became a scapegoat.

"Of course, I did it because I knew everything would be fine. You went to trade with Spike but didn't inform me and the police." Henry frowned and thought it was dangerous to make his own decision.

"Henry, you..." Zachary gritted his teeth and didn't know what to do with the gloomy man in front of him. Hence, he didn't want to argue with Henry anymore. "The food you cooked is terrible."

"Piss off if you don't want to eat." Henry looked emotional at that time.

"Spike should have trusted me very much now. This time, I discovered how he fled. He always stayed in the car, and others kept an eye on things for him. If something went wrong, he would leave first."

That way, no one could capture him. Moreover, his lackeys were to take the blame.

"Thus, to catch him in the act, it is imperative for the police to apprehend him on the spot." Zachary looked at Henry.

"Spike is as cunning as a fox. If he flees, and the police operation startles him, it will be difficult to look for evidence against him again."

Henry went silent. "We need to succeed without fail!"

"Silas ruined Spike's plan and had already annoyed Spike. The latter will not let Silas go. During this period, let's see them fight against each other."

In Ashley's residence.

Ashley sat on the couch, waiting for the news.
