Chapter 63
Ashley looked at Charles in panic and grabbed his arm. “You can’t tell Henry. We are partners. You promised me you wouldn’t tell Henry”
Get away from me! Charles roared, shoving Ashley away. This woman is crazy.
At first, 1ed her to force Josie and Henry to divorce, not to let her hurt Josie.
How can she curse Josie to die?
She’s too vicious, Charles thought angrily.
“Charles! Are you not afraid that I will tell Henry you were the one who set everything up? You want him to divorce Josie and steal the company. So you can’t tell him. You can’t tell him,” Ashley threatened, holding onto Charles nervously.
“Henry must never know!” she thought.
“Ha! Do you think I’m afraid of Henry?” Charles asked coldly.
Ashley’s breathing instantly stopped, and her fingers trembled. “Charles, don’t you want Josie to give up on Henry? If you tell Henry, he will feel guilty toward Josie, and all will be lost! Henry still wants to remarry Josie!”
Stopping in his tracks, Charles looked back at Ashley coldly. “I won’t tell Henry for the time being, but Ashley, I’m warning you. If anything happens to Josie, it’s on you. You better pray that not a single strand of her hair is harmed.”
After Charles left. Ashley’s face was ghastly white, and she bit her lips, unable to stop trembling.
Josie!
Why do all men protect her?” she fumed internally.
When Henry arrived at Hofcaster Hospital, Josie had been discharged.
She didn’t want to stay in the hospital for fear that Samuel would know her condition.
Moreover, she was afraid of it as it took away too many of her loved ones.
Samuel didn’t force Josie to stay in the hospital and brought her home.
Fortunately, he arrived in time this time, so Josie only suffered minor injuries.
“What do you want to eat?” Samuel asked gently when they got home.
“It’s time to eat the tomatoes Mr. Capaldi gave me. Do you know how to cook beef?” Josie thought for a while and replied to Samuel with a smile..
“I really want to eat beef with tomatoes, Josic mused.
Samuel raised his eyebrows and nodded dotingly.
“Jo, where are you going to find such a good man?” Madelyn asked as she sat on the couch and ate potato chips while watching a movie. Secing Josie come over, she shared her blanket with Josie.
Josie didn’t reply and only leaned against the couch, tired.
Jo, I have to watch over you when you go out next time. How can you injure yourself so badly?”

Josie lied to Madelyn as the latter was too hot-tempered. If Madelyn knew the truth, she would explode with anger.
Besides, Josie didn’t want Madelyn to worry.
Eat your potato chips,” Josie replied, mudging Madelyn
Jo, have you seen this movie called Who Killed Me? This is Clusia Media Group’s award-winning movie from three years ago, Madelyn asked, wholly focused on the movie.
“Chosia Media Group is indeed a legend in the industry.” That movie was a dark horse that no one had expected to win.
“Of course. Our CEO didn’t rely on anyone Madelyn guished as she admired her mysterious CEO very much.
“By the way, our HR department manager asked me again today. It seems like we really need talented hires in our company. 1 gave her your resume, and she thinks it’s good. She hopes you can go.”
Josie looked at Madelyn nervously, traumatized by the interviews.
Clenching her hands, Josie shook her head. “I can’t.”
“But Clusia Media Group is really great. The working environment is comfortable, and we can see each other every day,” Madelyn said, a little disappointed.
1-Is the HR department manager a man or a woman?” Josie asked cautiously.
“She’s a strong and beautiful woman. Her son is a child star. Madelyn pulled Josie closer and showed the latter a picture. Look, look, this child is so cute. He is Ms. Garcia’s son.”
Josie relaxed, but she was still afraid.
“It’s time to eat.” Samuel walked out of the kitchen, scooped out the beef stew into a small bowl, and gave Josie a spoor.
As Josie had some wounds on the corners of her mouth, it hurt when she drank the hot soup.
“What do you think of this movie?” Samuel asked as he walked to the couch and sat down.
“It’s super thought-provoking and is directed by my idol,” Madelyn declared admiringly.
“Your idol?” Samuel was confused.
The CEO of Clusia Media Group. My boss,” Madelyn replied proudly, chewing her potato chips.
Samuel only smiled and didn’t say a word.
Thank you,” Josie uttered, a little embarrassed as she always had to trouble Samuel to take care of her.
Now, he was even responsible for cooking.
“Eat something first. Samuel’s eyes darkened as he gazed at the wounds on her face.
He had asked his assistant to investigate Eastern Corporation. Although the HR department knew that Caleb from Harmony Supermarket was a p e r e r t, they still deliberately asked Josic to contact him.
Josie had never offended anyone, so evidently, someone was deliberately trying to harm her.
Additionally, Madelyn said that Henry and Ashley were scheming to prevent Josie from finding a job, so they must have had something to do with the incident regarding Eastern Corporation.

Chapter 63
Meanwhile, Henry stopped his car downstairs Josie’s rented apartment. He wanted to go up and see her, but suddenly, he hesitated.
This incident is my fault in the end.
I wanted to prevent Josie from finding a job to force her to compromise and come back to me obediently.
But I didn’t expect Josie would rather go to Frontier Bay than compromise.
I have never seen Josie being so stubborn, he thought.
Taking a deep breath, Henry got out of the car and leaned against the door to smoke.
Under the street lamp. Henry’s shadow looked long and lonely.
“Back then, I didn’t think I would feel that happy to have Josie around me. But now, Josie has really left, leaving me alone. Since I was a child, I had long gotten used to being lonely and abandoned by others, but Josie is someone I don’t want to let go. Henry thought.
After putting out the cigarette butt and throwing it into the garbage can, Henry looked up and saw Samuel, who came down to throw the garbage.
Henry furrowed his brows as he clenched his fingers.
“He has been lucky ever since he was a child. He’s born into a rich family and has everything. Why does he have to compete with me for Josie?” Henry thought jealously.
“Henry, how dare you come here! She can’t get agitated any more, so you better not mess with her!” Samuel threatened in a cold voice after throwing the trash.
He didn’t want to fight today.
Henry glared at Samuel. “If not for fear that Josie would be agitated, I wouldn’t be pacing around downstairs,” Henry thought.
“How is she?” Henry finally backed down and asked in a low voice.
“How dare you ask. If you didn’t try every means to keep her from finding a job, do you think she would go so far away and get hurt?” Samuel retorted softly, fearing that Josie would hear him.

“Henry, Eastern Corporation knows that Caleb is a v e r t. Is it you who asked them to mess with Josie on purpose? Samuel grabbed Henry and pushed him against the street lamp.
“Samuel Turner!” Henry frowned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. “I didn’t contact anyone from Eastern Corporation. I didn’t even expect her to go to Frontier Bay!”
“Then it must be Ashley!” Samuel was almost certain.
“Samuel, stop making assumptions. Ashley is a naive and timid girl. She won’t mess with Josie!” Henry declared unhappily.
“You’re really blinded by love. You’d better hope that it isn’t Ashley who did it.” Shoving Henry aside, Samuel warned, “Don’t mess with her again.”
“How dare you order me? What right do you have? Even if I have divorced Josie, we are still family! What about you?”
Henry knew very well that Josie wouldn’t dare to be with Samuel as she was afraid he would go against John.
After all, he owned the right to the Santalum residence.
