Chapter 104
Ex-Husband's Endless Pestering (Josie and Henry)
Chapter 104 Josie frowned and looked up at Henry.
She thought, âHeâs being too obvious. Did Henry deliberately announce that Iâm his wife in front of Hazel so she would think that Iâm still married to him and that everything is still under his control? Is he telling her to stop being concerned?â
Josie couldnât think of any other reasons as Henry had always been like that.
âOkay, Iâll see you tonight.â Hazel smiled elegantly. She cast Josie one last glance before turning to leave.
When Hazel passed by Ashley, she stopped.
Ashleyâs heart was racing, and she clenched her hands so tightly that they went numb. She plastered a smile on and said, âGoodbye, Ms. Locke.â
Your name is Ashley, right? It was nice to meet you. If you need any help, please feel free to contact me.â Hazel gave her phone number to Ashley.
Feeling surprised and flattered, Ashley nodded quickly. Thank you, Ms. Locke.â
Meanwhile, Henryâs expression was sour as he took Josieâs hand and headed toward the washroom. âCome with me.â
âMr. Gibson, there are no outsiders here. Why were you acting so nervous in front of Ms. Locke?â Josie pretended not to know the relationship between Henry and Hazel.
She added, âBesides, Ms. Locke is an artist under Clusia Media Group. I wanted to have a meal with her considering my job. Mr. Gibson, why did you have to make trouble?
Without a word, Henry pulled Josie into the storage room by the wrist.
âStay away from that woman from now on, or Iâll regret... letting you stay in Clusia Media Group. The storage room was dark, and Josie could only see Henryâs eyes through the light coming in from the door.
Emotions were seen surging in his deep, unfathomable eyes, âHenry, what else can you say to me aside from threats! Josie looked at Henry calmly as she did not find his words deterrent.
That was what people were like. After being threatened for a long time, they would become immune to threats.
Henry frowned when he noticed her lack of fear.
âIt seems like my threats are no longer effective because I always do that to Josie,â he thought At that moment, he felt that Josieâs rebelliousness was scary.
âHazel is not asâkind as she looks. She is the most vicious woman I have ever met...â Henryâs voice was trembling while he spoke. He reached out to hold Josie tightly in his arms and requested, âListen to me and stay away from her, okay?â
Josie stood quietly, feeling numb.
She could feel that Henry was trembling.
âItâs probably because of Hazel, the woman who abandoned him cruelly, she pondered.
Throughout Josieâs three years of marriage with Henry, he lost control countless times because of Hazel.
1/4 Chapter 104 Even if Henry didnât say it, Josie could feel that he was terribly hurt by his mother.
âHenry, stop trying to control my life all the time. Iâm not an accessory or a possession of yours. Iâm also definitely not a puppet that you can play with at willâ
Josie had had enough of that kind of life.
Josie, you and Henry... I just saw you talking to Henry. Do you know each other?â asked Josieâs colleagues when she returned later.
They looked at Josie in astonishment, wondering how the two knew each other.
âMr. Gibson and I are just...â
Before Josie could even explain, she was interrupted by someone.
âDonât you guys know? Josie is the legitimate daughter of the Gibson family, but she took her motherâs surname. Henry is Josieâs big brother,â said Sebastian as he walked over.
Josie was stunned for a moment before she clenched her fingers. She had never thought about using her identity for anything.
However, she did not say anything for a long time when she saw the shocked expression of her colleagues.
âJosie... I didnât know you were the daughter of a rich family. Youâre basically a princess, someone remarked.
Josie smiled and kept quiet. Then she pulled Sebastian aside and scolded, âSebastian, we had an agreement about this!â
Josie, why arenât you using your identity when you have the opportunity? Henry is acting intimate with that actress, so why canât you use your identity as his sister? This will help you avoid a lot of trouble at work, and those who want to mess with you will also have to think twice before doing anything.
ཨཽ ཨཽ à Sebastian glanced at one of her colleagues and continued, âThat woman in the black dress is also an agent of the company. right? When you were away earlier, I saw her talking to Ashley. I think you have to be careful.
That was why he announced Josieâs identity to intimidate that woman.
That way, Ashley would be unable to do anything Josie paused for a while and then nodded. She thought, âThat despicable Ashley is indeed good at playing tricks.
âSorry, I misunderstood you, Josie apologized in a low voice.
âThen treat me to coffee later. I know a super delicious coffee shop.â Sebastian said, throwing Josie a wink..
In response, Josie nodded. âSure.â
She couldnât help but give in since Sebastian was a cute guy who also knew how to coax people.
Sebastian smiled smugly and secretly sent Samuel a message. âSamuel, Josie wants to buy us coffee. Come to the theater and hitch a ride with us. If you donât come, Iâll be having a date with Josic alone.â
Sitting in the corner, Josie quietly watched Sebastian and Rebecca do their auditions.
They seemed to be born actors as they could always get into the character and express emotions perfectly.
For some reason, Josie suddenly thought of the phrase, âlonely in a crowd.â
å¸ Chapter 104 Her mother Kathy had said that when a good dancer was on stage, their world would turn lonely. The only thing that existed. at that moment would be the character the dancer was portraying and the dance itself, Every actor had to be lonely in a crowd when they were on the stage.
To Josie, the phrase was easy to understand. That was because she had always been doing that from the moment she returned to the Gibson family at the age of 15 until before she got a divorce.
She lived her life like she was performing on stage and tried her best to portray herself.
She was like a clown, but also more like a string puppet And the person controlling the strings was Henry.
âMr. Gibson is so fond of Ashley. Look, he came here to cheer her up in person. Sheâs basically joining the crew with an investment backing her. How could any director dare to refuse?â
I know right? Do we even have a chance here?â
âThatâs why there arenât many contenders for the female lead role. Everyone knows that they canât win against Ashley, so they chose other characters instead.â
The people around were engaged in discussions, and most of them were complaining about Ashley having a strong backup.
However, there were also some people who were envious of her.
Josie just listened quietly like an outsider.
âDid you hear about the news that Henry was once married? He apparently has an exâwife.â
thought that rumor has been refuted?â
âItâs true that Henry was once married. My aunt works in the City Hall.â

ï¤Chapter 103 Una curvy para el Alfa ï¤Chapter 16 Upon hearing that, Josie tensed up and sat upright vigilantly.
âFor real? Henry was really married? Whoâs his exâwife?â
I donât know. Thatâs a secret that cannot be disclosed. However, I do know he married someone. They just divorced some time ago.â
âSo Ashley really is a mistress...â
I had no idea.â
Whatâs wrong with that? Henry must have divorced his wife for Ashley. He dotes on her so much.â
Then why did Henry clarify his relationship with Ashley? Heâs showing no intentions to marry her.â
âAshley is a celebrity. Henry did that because he was worried about affecting her reputation. No secrets in this world can stay completely hidden.
See? Even I know that he was married, so others can definitely find out. If he admits Ashleyâs connection to him, wouldnât that be akin to confessing that she is a mistress?â
âMr. Gibson is so thoughtful toward Ashley.â
âHis exâwife is just a pawn. How pitiful.â
Josie was a little dazed as realization dawned upon her.

Chapter 104 Josie chuckled without a sound and raised her hand to rub her temples. âPawn... That word is so accurate. Henry really is extremely protective of Ashley,â she thought.
