Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 30 That night, Henry made Josie feel a fear she had never experienced before.

П She had never seen Henty lose control, like a beast.

After three years of marriage, Henry rarely yearned for her, but he was always gentle each time.

Henry was a very picky man, and it was the sin this regard.

Josie knew Henry had strict requirements when selecting partners. At the very least, he was mysophobic about women.

She was very clean and was never touched by other men. This was the thing Henry was most satisfied with.

Henry once said. Josie, you are the wife with the best criteria I have chosen." She was the best because she was clean enough.

When she returned to the Gibson family at fifteen, she becmore recluse.

Josie had almost no interaction with the opposite sex, except for Samuel, who made her cry.

Henry knew it very well.

Josie could understand Henry's loss of control and madness that night because she crossed his bottom line and destroyed his standards Yet, Josie could not understand why Henry tormented her this way when he despised her and thought she was filthy.

As she endured the pain numbly, Josie accepted Henry's rage helplessly.

Josie finally lost consciousness, but she was glad she fainted.

Being g awake would be the biggest torture for her.

"Josie!" Noticing she had fainted, Henry kicked Josie's frail coffee table irritably.

In the end, they did not do it all the way. Henry still could not bear to torment Josie's weak body.

Henry securely wrapped Josie in a blanket, took a deep breath, and held her tightly in his arms.

Only now would Josie be as obedient as usual when she fell asleep.

"Even though you just need to give a brief explanation..." Henry's voice was hoarse.

"Why don't you explain? What's so good about Charles? What can he give you that I can't?" Henry mumbled to himself as he carried Josie into the bedroom.

Henry rummaged through the medical kit to deal with the bruises on Josie's wrist, which he had caused. Then, he lay exhausted beside Josie.

He disdained both the environment of the rented house and Josie, but he could not fall asleep without her.

The next morning, when Josie woke up, Henry was sitting by the bed.

Slap! Josie slapped Henry with all her might and pushed him aside madly, but she fell off the bed.

At the stime, she pricked her palm onto the glass shards on the floor, and blood splattered.

12:49 Wed, 8 May Chapter 30 "Josie!" Henry was enraged. The woman who had always catered to him gently suddenly becdistant and resisted him.

Josie was his wife.

At least, she used to be.

"We're divorced, Henry. Letgo, and we'll live our separate lives, okay?” In tears, Josie knelt on the ground and begged Henry. She thought, "I just want to live a normal life. Why is that so hard?" Henry's breathing was hot and heavy. After noticing the blood on Josie's palm, he slowly recovered his senses. Henry wanted to slap himself, but he stood there stubbornly and refused to admit his mistake.

In reality, he was the most insecure one.

When he was a child, he was abandoned in an orphanage. Then, he was adopted by John, and later on, he met Josie.

He admitted he had an ulterior motive for approaching Josie and treating her well He was afraid the real lady of the family would return, and he, the adopted child, would be cast away.

He was afraid to be homeless again.

Henry desperately wanted to keep, take, and obtain more things.

Power, money, and status.

It did not matter what it was as long as it could make him feel at ease.

Josie Henry's voice was hoarse when he saw Josie weeping her heart out.

Henry just wanted an answer. It was not Josie who abandoned him, but he who left her.

"I don't want you anymore." Henry got up and left.

Henry tried to convince himself that he had broken up with Josie.

Josie looked at Henry's silhouette in despair.

He had cast her aside.

It had always been that way.

Her savior seemed to be covered by a dark shadow. In the absence of the light, everyone was a demon.

Josie leaned weakly against the bed and slowly closed her eyes.

It did not matter who abandoned who anymore.

She just wanted to live.

That day, Henry cand left in a hurry.

Everything seemed like a nightmare. It felt unreal to Josie.

Since that day, Josie had never seen Henry again.

He seemed to have completely disappeared from her world.

She was finally free from him.

Chapter 30 Meanwhile, at the Hofcaster Hospital.

After Josie finished her lumbar puncture at Hofcaster Hospital, she lay quietly on the hospital bed.

At that moment, she felt like a heavy object had broken her hip. Her whole body was numb and painful. It was an indescribable torture.

When it hurt too much, Josie would take one painkiller.

Although the doctor told her she could not keep taking painkillers, she could not endure the pain of lumbar puncture.

"You don't need to cto work anymore, Josic. Before she was discharged from the hospital, she received a call from the HR Department.

Josie was actually excellent in her company. She had academic qualifications and was capable. Not to mention, she was mostly the one to sign big deals for the company.

She merely took sick leave for a while.

"I took sick leave, Lydia. The company has no right to dismiss me..." Josie choked.

"I've been with you for three years, Jo. Letask you something. Did you offend someone?" The hairs on Josie's back stood up.

"The collaboration with Gibson Corporation is vital, but the other side other sid Ο Μ' requested they don'Xwant to see you.

As you know, we are not a big company and can't afford to be in trouble." Josie's wound was getting increasingly painful, and even the painkiller did not work.

She did not expect Henry to act so quickly to eliminate her.

"From what I understand from the higher-ups, you've offended the leader of the Gibson Corporation Otherwise, you wouldn't be fired. You have signed many big contracts for the company over the years, and the company is indeed a little inhumane. Why don't you ask about it and apologize to the higher-ups of Gibson Corporation?" Josie's cars were buzzing, and she could not hear what the other was saying.

"Henry doesn't want to see me... What?" She thought..

Dahon Corporation indeed relied on Gibson Corporation to survive. If Gibson Commotion were offended, even staying in Hofcaster would be a problem for Dahon Corporation.

Josie tightened his fingers slowly and remained silent.

Now that she had lost her job, her incsource beca problem.

She still needed a lot of money for the follow-up treatment.

"What can I do?" She pondered.

Josie hung up the phone in fear. She did not even notice the back flow of blood in the peripheral venous catheter.

Henry was not leaving her any chances of survival.

Buzz! The phone vibrated again. Josie glanced at it and found it was Charles.

Josie did not want to answer it as she did not trust Charles.

12:50 wed, & May Chapter 30 "Henry lost control and acted like a madman that day. Who took those photos in advance?" she wondered, "Who has been plotting againstyears ago?" She merely had no experience and only schemed against each other.

"I have sgood news for you, Ms. Yates. Outside the door, the attending doctor walked in with a smile.

It seemed Josie's examination result was quite optimistic.

Josie sighed with relief and looked up at the doctor.

"The CAR-T cell therapy has just been approved in our country in June this year, and the cure rate is still considerable in clinical practice. Currently, six CAR-T medications are marketed worldwide, which you can try. The cost is between 180 to 450 thousand dollars." The doctor recommended Josie try them out. After all, many patients dreamt of being free from cancer.

Josie's fingers trembled a little, and her hopeful eyes darkened.

"I can live on as long as I have money, right?" Josie asked in a low voice.

The doctor nodded.

In Josie's case, that was the fact.
