Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 275

"Why did you fall asleep here?" Josie asked in a low voice.

Smiling weakly, Henry rubbed his eyebrows and got out of the car. "I slept too late last night."

"What happened?" Josie knew Henry well. She thought, "Something must've happened. Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared in front of me in such a mess."

"Hazel... Something did happen," Henry said in a deep voice.

Josie stared at Henry in shock. "Is it Spike?"

"The police are still investigating. It has nothing to do with Spike," Henry smiled bitterly. "Jo, do you believe in retribution?"

"People are dead?" Josie was shocked and didn't recover for a long time.

In fact, after hearing the news of Silas' death, she had already guessed that Spike would not let Hazel go, but she never expected that the other woman would die.

After all, Spike had held back from killing Hazel for Henry's sake.

"Yes." Henry nodded.

Taking a deep breath, Josie leaned against Henry's car. "I believe there is retribution in this world."

Henry glanced at Josie. "Jo, Sergio was taken away by the police. Before I came here, Caden called me and said that Sergio surrendered himself, and the police re-investigated the case of your parents. The dust will settle down."

Everyone who hurt Josie would be punished.

"Henry, don't tire yourself out. This has nothing to do with you in essence." Josie didn't know how to comfort him and couldn't say anything more.

That was the extent of her relationship with Henry.

They were neither too close nor distant.

The relationship between an ex-wife and her ex-husband was very awkward.

"Maybe..." Henry's voice was hoarse, and he said again after a long silence. "Just maybe... Would you be willing to give me a chance to repent?"

Josie glanced at Henry. "No."

Henry's throat moved visibly, and his eyes slowly reddened as he fell silent.

"Henry, it's not your fault that we divorced. There's a huge problem with me. We shouldn't have hurt each other from the beginning. If one of us has sunshine in our hearts and is willing to warm each other, we won't be here," Josie looked at Henry quietly and smiled.

Henry lowered his head and didn't dare to look into Josie's eyes.

This was something he should have done.

Taking a deep breath, Henry nodded. "I see..."

Samuel was like a beam of light in Josie's life. He could provide Josie with warmth and bring her light and hope.

Meanwhile, Henry was an abyss.

If Josie stayed with him, Josie would be staring into the abyss every day.

Slowly, she would collapse, and the abyss, too, would collapse.

Two people who were too similar to each other would only hurt each other when they were together.

"Henry, you will meet someone who is willing to love you wholeheartedly, warm you, and illuminate your world."

"You're the only one who's not allowed to say those words to me." Smiling bitterly, Henry turned around and got into the car.

Josie knew that Hazel's death had hit Henry hard, after all. "Henry..."

"This is for you. Do whatever you want with it." Henry handed a box to Josie.

Josie accepted the box. However, before she could even open it, Henry had already reversed the car and left.

Josie chased after him a few steps. Feeling that Henry was in a bad state, she called Samuel.

However, Samuel was in a meeting and could not answer the phone.

Josie was anxious and didn't know who to look for. "Who can I contact? Maybe Zachary?"
