Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry) novel Chapter 9

"Samuel Turner!" Henry grabbed Samuel's collar and sent a punch across the latter's face.

Everyone in the private room was dumbfounded by the scene that was unfolding before their eyes. The two people that were involved in the fight were Henry and Samuel, both of which were people the rest of them could not afford to mess with.

In Hofcaster, there were two families that one should not offend. They were the Gibson family and the Turner family.

Ever since John passed away three years ago, Henry became the head of the Gibson family.

However, Lewis Turner, the patriarch of the Turner family, was still alive and was extremely indulgent of his grandson, Samuel.

Everyone knew of Lewis' power, so who would dare to mess with Samuel?

Henry and Samuel were high school classmates who went on to become college roommates. The Gibsons and the Turners were close, and at the same time, John and Lewis were comrades.

As a result, no one dared to step forward when a fight broke out between members of such mighty families, and they could only leave silently.

Henry was ruthless in his attacks, and Samuel did not hold back either. Neither of their families was afraid of the other, so they continued to fight.

When the two men grew tired from fighting, Henry yanked his tie and threw it on the ground. Some of the buttons on his shirt also fell off. "Don't mess with my woman," he warned.

Meanwhile, Samuel wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and cast an icy glare at the other man. "Who was the one who said that he'd divorce Josie when he inherited Gibson Corporation?"

Henry's expression grew increasingly darker when he heard that.

"You don't love her, but you still keep her by your side. Are you planning to take up all of the good things in the world?" Samuel got to his feet and sent a kick toward the coffee table. "Do you know that she almost died?" he roared.

"Did Madelyn tell you that?" Henry frowned.

"Henry, are you even human?" Samuel lit another cigarette.

"Do you still want to fight?" Henry's eyes darkened.

They almost got into another fight, but the door to the private room was frantically pushed open.

"Henry! You... Why are you two fighting?" Ashley ran over to them. She then stood in front of Henry to protect him and said in between sobs, "Mr. Turner, aren't you good friends with Henry? Why are you fighting with him?"

"Ashley Long, right? Do you think everyone will fall for that act of yours? You're disgusting." Samuel was not one to argue with women, but the moment he saw Ashley, he suddenly felt agitated.

"She's obviously putting on an act. Henry must be blind to fall for it," he mused.

"Mr. Turner..." Ashley burst into tears, feeling aggrieved.

At that, Henry got to his feet and pulled at Samuel's collar. "Apologize to Ashley!"

"You should divorce her as soon as possible. I feel sorry for Josie because she married someone like you." Samuel pushed his hand away and lit another cigarette before taking his leave.

At that point, Henry was slightly intoxicated, and in a fit of frustration, he kicked the glass bottles on the ground.
