Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 74

Chapter 74 Josie’s eyelid twitched. “Does Clusia Media Group belong to Henry?” she wondered. She shook her head upon further thought. “That’s not right. Clusia Media Group definitely does not belong to Henry.” Ashley would not have expended so much effort to contest for the leading role if it did. “What’s wrong. Jo Madelyn asked, her head tilted to the side. Josie shook her head “Nothing. As soon as he had finished cleaning up the kitchen in his rented apartment, Samuel heard a knock on the door. He opened the door excitedly only to be let down with a scowl and slammed the door shut with a bang. Yuri grabbed the handle on the other side of the door with a grin. “Don’t. It’s the holidays, after all. Since I’m already here, don’t kick me out.” “You’d better get out of here quick. Madelyn is in Clusia Media Group, and she knows you.” Samuel warned Yuri. “What? I can’t be friends with Mr. Turner because I work in Clusia Media Group? We go way back, you know!” Yuri showed him the bottle of wine. “Look, I brought you something.” “What are you doing here?” Samuel was warning him against being a third wheel. “I’m doing this for you. In a while, I’ll sacrifice myself by taking Madelyn away after dinner so you and Josie can be alone.” Samuel gazed at Yuri, puzzled. “Why are you so thoughtful today?” “How can you say that?” Yuri gave Samuel a dirty look. T’m sorry to tell you this, but Henry came to see me in person today. I did not dare refuse the meeting.” Samuel’s face darkened. “For Ashley’s sake, he has lost all dignity.” “He’s just flirty. Isn’t that what everybody does? How many people are loyal like you, Mr. Turner?” Yuri joked. “Though Henry had gotten in touch via his agent in the past, he didn’t interfere directly with the matter with Ashley. I heard she was depressed and that she attempted to end her life at about three in the afternoon. She’s still undergoing an emergency procedure in the hospital. Henry called me at five,

so 1 guess she survived.” Samuel rolled his eyes. “Don’t worry. Ashley will survive even if the world comes to an end.” “Did you agree?* Samuel asked Yuri in a threatening tone. “Do I dare?” Yuri’s hair stood on end at the recollection of his encounter. “Henry is not an unreasonable man. I told him the director has high standards, and we can’t change anything.” “Besides, this period piece film pushes the actors to their limits. If Ashley were a professional, she would have no problem living in the countryside and doing a month’s worth of farm chores to experience it firsthand. How else will she be able to play the part otherwise? We can’t risk our reputation.” The wind began howling outside. Samuel glanced out the window and found that it was getting dark. The weather had been pleasant during the day, but the temperature began to drop when night descended. Feeling a little worried, Samuel grabbed a coat while pointing at Yuri with a look of warning. Chapter 74 “I’m going out. Watch your tongue afterward.

Yuri smiled evilly. “Oh. Samuel, Everybody has a soft spot,” he thought. Samuel’s only soft spot was undoubtedly Josie. Though it was not common knowledge, Yuri knew Samuel had loved Josie for ten years. He loved Josie so much that he would have died abroad without her. Three years ago, Samuel founded Clusia Media Group and handed it over to Yuri to pursue his studies abroad on his own. No one knew what Samuel had experienced abroad. It was not due to a miracle that he survived, but due to an obsession. There was somebody he could not let go. At the bus stop outside the residential area, Josie, lost in reverie, only realized she was supposed to get off after the bus stopped. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Josie stiffened the moment she got up. Samuel was standing at the stop sign. Pulling Josie out of the bus, Madelyn was also stunned to see Samuel standing outside. “How envious you make me, Mr. Turner, she lamented inwardly. “It’s getting windy. Samuel handed the coat to Josie affectionately. “How sweet of you, Mr. Turner, Madelyn said with a shiver as it had indeed gotten cooler. “A spinster like me does not deserve warmth. How sad,” she thought ruefully. Josie took Samuel’s coat. For a moment, her mind was blank with confusion. As was his haughty custom, Samuel stood with his hands in his pants pockets and with his gaze someplace else to hide the fact that his ears had turned red. Josie held Samuel’s coat nervously, feeling a little confused. Following behind Josie, Samuel retorted, “Does it keep you warm from holding it?” Josie was close to burying her head in the coat, Samuel sighed and reached over to grab Josie’s collar. “You almost walked into that trash can.” Trembling with fear, Josie buried her head even deeper.. Madelyn ran ahead of them to make herself as invisible as possible. “I have a guest at home. Do you mind? Before opening the door, Samuel recalled the presence of his annoying friend, Yuri. Josie shook her head. “How could I mind? I’m just confused. I know very well why Samuel is treating me this nicely,” she thought 10:17 Thu, 9 May Chapter 74 “Hello, my name is Yuri. Nice to meet you again.” Yuri leaned against the table as he smiled at Josie and Madelyn. Madelyn was so shocked that she wanted nothing more than have the ground swallow her whole. “M- Mr. Yancey! What a coincidence.” “A coincidence, indeed! Samuel and I are friends.” Yuri took the initiative to explain.

“Hello, Mr. Yancey. Nice to see you again.” Despite being a little surprised, Josie smiled politely at Yuri. “Do you know each other?” Samuel asked, surprised, before wondering privately, “It’s one thing for him to know Madelyn. And now he knows Josie too?” Madelyn looked happy. “Wendy has found a job in Clusia Media Group. It was Samuel’s turn to be shocked. Failing to catch his breath, Samuel lapsed into a coughing fit. “Clusia Media Group?” Samuel repeated, staring at Josie. Though he had given Josie his business card before, Josie did not seem interested in joining him. It was plain that she had not even seen the card. “Well, the Film and Television Department lacks a manager, and Ms. Yates is an outstanding candidate. There are a few newcomers who could use her guidance. Yuri’s acting skills were superb. “It’s too tiring to hold newcomers by the hand!” Samuel turned around to glare at Yuri, gritting his teeth as he did so. Yuri winced from the invisible pressure. “Hmm. I’ll see what I can do. To Josie, for landing a job!” Madelyn was in a fantastic mood. It had always been her dream to work with her best friend. Even if they could not often meet at work, she did not have to worry that Josie was being bulled, at least. Josie was also in high spirits. She gazed longingly at the wine brought by Yuri, wanting some. “She can’t drink.” Samuel stepped on Yuri’s foot. “You guys help yourselves.” Disappointed, Josie took a sip of water instead. “It seems that I’m not getting a drink tonight,” she mused forlornly. “How about just a little bit?” Madelyn whispered, imploring Samuel. Samuel glanced at Josie. “What should I do? I just have to go with it,” he thought. “Just a little bit.” Josie’s eyes lit up. She nodded eagerly.

Samuel wanted to laugh. Only when Josie was happy could he see a trace of the past. The faerie-like girl, dancing barefoot on the coast and happily picking up shells. Yuri was shocked. “You’re a good chef/ Mr. Turner. I can quit my job, and we can start a business running a restaurant.” “I never knew he could cook so well, he thought. 10:17, Thu, 9 May Chapter 74 “No thanks, Samuel said flatly. “You’ll ruin me.” “Now that he’s gotten a taste. Vuri can get out of here now, he thought vehemently, While the freezing gale howled outside, the house was filled with laughter. Josie enjoyed herself very much in such infectiously joyous company. Her life at the Gibson residence was regular, with neither warmth nor liveliness. Henry hated crowds and noise, and he thought Josie liked peace and quiet as he did. In actual fact, Josie yearned for the warmth of camaraderie. Despite being married for three years, Josie had never dared to let Madelyn visit because Henry did not like it. As a result, she closed herself off, with solitude being her only company. Josie’s phone buzzed. It was from Henry. For some reason, Josie found the sight of his name unusually irritating. Not wishing to ruin the merry mood, Josie silently turned off her phone. 曲
