Chapter 81
Samuel’s eyes were full of light. He was nervous and overwhelmed.
Although he was a grown man, he was still as s t u p i as a child.
His hands, which were originally inserted in his pockets, shook with excitement. He looked at Josie nervously and excitedly. “Wait… I’ll wait! As long as you give me a chance, I can wait as long as possible!”
Josie’s eyes were brimming with tears, but she still smiled.
What did Samuel do without telling her?
On that day at Reef Village, Samuel said that he had loved her for ten years, and she did not know how many things had happened in those ten years.
“Can we go home and sleep now? You’re still sick.”
Samuel did not know what to say for a moment. It was as if he was dreaming.
He did not expect Josie to agree and would be content as long as she could give him a chance.
“You… You won’t take your words back, will you?” Samuel was cautious.
Josie shook her head.
“Then I don’t care. I’m afraid I have to disagree if you would take your words back.” Samuel pulled Josie into his arms. “I can wait as long as possible, even if you would tell me that you still love Henry… I will still wait.”
Josie listened to Samuel’s heartbeat quietly. No wonder Samuel felt so familiar.
Ten years ago, three years ago, and some time ago at Harmony Supermarket.
The familiar heartbeat she heard was Samuel’s.
Sometimes, Josie wondered if she would be much happier if Samuel was the one whom she loved at first.
However, when she saw Henry that day, Josie understood that she would not.
Even if she loved Samuel initially, Henry would not let her be happy.
Ten years ago, Henry had already begun to plot to capture her.
Henry was a man who would never stop until his goal was achieved. He would not allow Josie to marry anyone else.
Ashley was sent back to Hofcaster Hospital. Henry’s hand was still bleeding.
“Henry, deal with the wound.”
Henry frowned. “You shouldn’t have gone there today. Do you know how dangerous it is for you to run out alone? I allowed you to stand in the spotlight so that I could protect you. However, you are always so willful!”
Ashley clenched her hands nervously, She knew that Henry was really angry,
Henry, I just heard them say that you were fighting. I was worried about you.”
Ashley sobbed.

Henry could not ignore her kindness.
“Zachary is crazy. Don’t give him any chance to hu Henry sighed, and his tone softened.
“Ten years ago, he was involved in that kidnapping, wasn’t he?” Ashley looked at Henry with red eyes.
It was the biggest leverage she had against Henry.
Zachary was the son of Ashley’s foster father. He was a real ruffian. After graduating high school, Zachary dropped out. He then joined the gangsters in doing all the bad stuff.
Ten years ago, he kidnapped Josie as he was a subordinate of the mastermind of the kidnapping incident.
The scar on his face was left by Henry.
At that time, Zachary was only 18 years old.

Later, Ashley found Henry through that line. She tried every means to enter the entertainment industry to make Henry feel guilty about her and help her escape the dilemma. She wanted to become superior.
while the person
She was jealous of Henry. They were both adopted. Yet, why was her adoptive family so poor and crazy, while the who adopted Henry was one of the elites in Hofcaster?
However, she slowly found Henry’s weakness later on.
She wanted to marry Henry, and she wanted everyone to look up to her.
She wanted those who once looked down on her to be in desperate states.
Henry was the person who could not be trifled with in the business district of Hofcaster, and he was her best choice.
However, she and Henry lived in the same orphanage when they were young. She knew that Henry had a regular personal psychologist.
Henry was so obsessed with the past that he could not let it go.
She got in touch with Henry’s psychiatrist and slowly figured out Henry’s weaknesses.
Ashley wanted to approach Henry, and she wanted Henry to marry her.
She would never go back to that dirty, poor, and lowly place again.
“Get some rest. It has nothing to do with you.” Henry’s face darkened. He ordered Thomas to take care of Ashley and left the hospital.
Thomas stood quietly in the ward and carefully wiped Ashley’s feet. “Ashley… Don’t forget what you promised me.”
Ashley grabbed her quilt tightly.
“You promised me that you would do whatever you wanted, but you wouldn’t fall in love with Henry,” he whispered.
Thomas slowly stood up straight. “Ashley, you’re in love with him, aren’t you?”
Ashley looked away. Her eyes turned red.
She fell in love with Henry.
How could she not love such a man? “Yes, that’s right. I’m in love with him. It won’t hinder our plan.”

“Ashley… What do you think of me?” Thomas smiled bitterly.
“Thomas, know your position,” Ashley said with disgust. “As I said, you can’t give me what I want, so don’t disturb me!”
A powerless person was not qualified to get her.
Thomas was silent, and his fingers were shaking.
He was nothing. Who wouldn’t love a man like Henry, anyway?
“Be careful these days. Zachary is back.” Thomas then changed the subject
Ashley’s face turned pale, and the fear in her eyes could not be disguised.
Zachary was back to take revenge.
She could not be captured back by Zachary again.

“Thomas, get rid of him. Promise that you will help me, okay? He knows everything about my past. He knows everything about me is a disguise. No… I can’t let him live. Thomas, please help me. Please help me get rid of him.” Ashley’s emotions were a little out of control.
“Ashley!” Thomas’ voice was trembling. Ashley could not love him, but she could let him hurt someone.
“I will help you get Mr. Gibson’s love, help you become Mrs. Gibson, and I will not let Zachary expose everything about you… Believe me.” Thomas’ voice was trembling.

Thomas gritted his teeth and continued speaking. “We can use Henry to get rid of Zachary, as long as he knew that Zachary wanted to hurt Josie…”
Ashley hugged Thomas tightly and trembled as she laughed. “I knew you were the best. You are the only one kind to me.”
Henry lit a cigarette outside the hospital and asked, “Found it?”
“Mr. Gibson, this man did appear in the hospital, but he did not go to Ms. Long. He came to the emergency room to treat his wound, but the doctor asked him to show his ID card. He robbed alcohol and gauze, then ran away.”
The bodyguard passed him the photo of Zachary, which was captured in the surveillance camera. It was a little blurry, though.
“How dare he come back to Hofcaster?” Henry took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Keep an eye on him and protect Josie.”
Henry did not worry that Zachary would hurt Ashley. After all, Ashley was an artist presently. As long as Zachary was not a fool, he would think twice before he did anything.
However, Josie was different…
Ten years ago, Zachary participated in the kidnapping of Josie. He was worried that Zachary had come back for Josie.
