Chapter 97
“Jo… Henry also noticed that as long as Ashley was involved, Josie’s eyes would always become extremely cold, as if she was in despair after seeing through him. He grabbed Josie’s wrist and stared into her devastated eyes. “What do you want me to do to satisfy you?”
Josie smiled weakly and enunciated every word clearly, “I want you to disappear from my world forever.
Once upon a time, she fantasized that Henry would fall in love with her one day.
Now, she only wanted Henry to disappear from her world forever.
Or else, she would disappear herself.
“Josie!” Henry was irritated by Josie, and his eyes were red.
He couldn’t understand how long Josie’s willfulness would continue.
Josie just looked at him with resentment and stubbornness in her eyes, as if she was telling Henry that she would never forgive him throughout her entire life.
Henry’s fingers slowly loosened, and Josie’s wrist had already turned purplish red because of his grip.→
He also felt sorry for her.
He also wanted to comfort Josie. Yet, Josie would only infuriate him.
Henry inhaled weakly and felt a little tired.
Before this, Josie would never act this
way.
Because Josie was afraid that he would be too tired from work, she didn’t even dare to breathe loudly when he returned home. She was cautious, like a rabbit.
“Jo, Arthur will be fine.” Henry comforted her in a deep voice.
Arthur stayed in the emergency room for 30 minutes, and the doctor just briefly explained something.
Josie stood numbly and looked at Arthur, who was pushed out of the emergency room. Suddenly, he appeared much older in her eyes.
When she was 15 years old, she had hidden in the corner of the emergency room, watching the door open and the doctor. shaking his head at John.
At that moment, great sadness and fear almost devoured Josie.
She cried and hugged herself in fear, but it was useless.
The woman who was as beautiful as a lark would never dance under the sunshine and in the garden again in her pointed shoes.
“Jo… Jo, Arthur is fine. I’ll take you home to rest. Jo?”
Josie stood in the corridor in a daze, like a puppet who had lost her soul.
Henry’s heart tightened, and he stepped forward to hold Josie in his arms.

Chapter 97
Back then, he would also hold Josie to comfort her. Whenever he hugged Josie, she would always calm down quickly.
But this time, he felt the person in his arms getting stiffer and stiffer.
“Jo, don’t be willful. You can move back and live with me. You can work or do whatever you want. I’ll let you do anything. okay?”
Josie only felt that Henry’s voice was unusually far away from her.
Perhaps Henry felt like he was being extremely gentle, but in Josie’s eyes, he was always threatening.
“Arthur is in poor health. When he is discharged from the hospital, we will go back to the Gibson residence and accompany him for a while. I will go home on time. I will make up for what I didn’t do for you before. As long as you obey, okay?”
Henry arranged everything on his own as if he was arranging Josie’s life.
Thinking back carefully, Henry was indeed planning Josie’s life all along.
Where to go to school, who to learn from, what major to learn, what way to go, who to marry, when to divorce….
Jo!
It was already 11:30 pm, and Samuel hurried into the hospital.
Josie stood in the corridor and looked at Samuel, who was in a mess and hadn’t dealt with the wounds on his face yet.
Obviously, he had fought with someone else.
“Jo, something happened to Yuri, so I’m late…” Samuel ran to Josie’s side while panting and secretly wiped the blood on his mouth, fearing that Josie would be scared.
“Did you fight?” Josie whispered.
Samuel didn’t look at Josie. He was afraid that Josie would think he was just an impulsive loser.
“Don’t worry. I just quarreled with Yuri… Samuel lowered his voice.
“Samuel, you are always so impulsive. Did Yuri do this to you?” Josie sobbed for a while as she thought, “This isn’t what I’m. thinking about. But it was because of me that Samuel provoked the crazy people of the Taibbi family. Henry was right. Who dragged Samuel into this storm?”
Samuel was slightly panicked, and the pain in his body stimulated his thoughts. He couldn’t help but want to explain. He just wanted to teach Quinton a lesson, and he just didn’t want anyone to hurt Josie,
“Samuel, think about the consequences before doing anything. It’s just a child’s behavior to be so impulsive.”
Jo. Samuel felt heartbroken.
Henry often said the same thing about him.
Samuel thought he had been out in the world for three years and had already matured enough.
But in front of Henry, he was still vulnerable.
Outside the ward, Henry leaned against the door frame with a frown as he warned, “Jo, don’t forget what I said to you.”
Samuel stood there like an angry lion. Anyone could tell that Henry’s statement was a threat.
Chapter 97
“Yes. We will pick up Arthur when he’s discharged from the hospital tomorrow.”
The doctor said that Arthur could go home to rest. There was a family doctor at the Gibson residence, so it was better to stay at home than in the hospital.
After all, there were no medicines or better ways.
“We will go back to the Gibson residence to accompany Arthur during this period.” Henry frowned. He was reminding Josie.
Josie left without saying anything.
After walking out of the hospital, Samuel followed Josie.
They walked one after another, and neither of them spoke first.
Before the door was closed, Josie said to Samuel, “Get some early rest.
Samuel’s fingers gradually turned cold, and he smiled weakly. He had done everything. Although he didn’t expect any response from Josie, his heart still hurt badly.
No matter how hard he tried, he would still be defeated by Henry
Yuri also said that he was too impulsive. He wasn’t mature, stable, smart, or calm enough.
Compared with Henry, he would definitely lose.
