Chapter 83
“He was brought here in time, and his condition has stabilized. The doctor came out of the operating room just as Josie pushed Henry away.
They kept silent for a long time, and Josie was the one who spoke first. “I’m going in to see Arthur.”
Henry’s hands stiffened and trembled. Josie!”
The moment Josie pushed him away, he unprecedentedly panicked. “Arthur is old and in poor health. We have to make a deal to come back and see him once a week. He is the one who doesn’t want us to divorce the most Dot
o you know what I mean?”
Josie understood, of course. Henry wanted her to cooperate with him and act as a loving couple in front of Arthur.
“Henry, Arthur is going to know it sooner or later. We can’t hide it from him for the rest of our lives. Besides, it was you and Ashley who created such rumors. It was on the internet. Arthur’s eyes were fine, and he could see it.”
Josie also had a temper, and she was just too forbearing
Ashley was the one who first disregarded the feelings of others and kept hyping it online.
“Besides, you shouldn’t tell me these. You should tell Ashley or Thomas to stop going over the top. Josie glanced at Henry and turned to the ward. After taking a few steps, Josie remembered something. “We’re divorced. I have no right to interfere in your private life. I’m sorry”
Henry watched Josie walk into the ward and felt frustrated for no reason.
He punched the wall, and the wound that had healed bled again.
ཋ་ཚ་ཚ་ཡི་ངོ་རྗཎྜ
Even the pain couldn’t make him rational.
As expected, Josie still cared about those rumors.
In the ward, Arthur woke up and smiled weakly at Josie. “It’s so late, and I made you come. I’m too old to be useful. It’s time for me to reunite with John.
Josie poured him water and said weakly, “Arthur, don’t say such nonsense.”
She couldn’t control a person’s fate in life.
Jo, tell me the truth. You and Henry… Arthur sighed. He just wanted to know what was wrong with them.
He also watched the news online. He had seen that girl named Ashley.
He thought Josie was far better than her.
“Arthur, we…. Josie wanted to take the opportunity to confess.
“Arthur, I had a little fight with Jo. The news on the internet was to raise Ashley’s popularity. Jo was jealous and angry with me because of that Henry stretched out his hand to pull Josie into his arms and smiled at Arthur, I’m coaxing her.
Josie’s body stiffened, and her face darkened.
Henry looked at Josie pleadingly. Arthur was very important to him.
“That’s good. It’s normal for young people like you guys to quarrel. Just don’t take it personally. Your grandpa agreed to your

marriage so that he could see that his raised children can be happy forever. Don’t let him down.” Arthur seemed relieved.
Josie clenched her fingers tightly. She didn’t want to hide it anymore.
“Arthur, have a good rest. Jo and I will stay with you outside. Henry didn’t give Josie the chance to say it. He held her wrist and dragged her out. “The doctor told me that Arthur has terminal bone cancer. He doesn’t have much time left.”
Josie’s breathing instantly stagnated, as if she had been struck by lightning. “How is that possible? How could this be?”
“He always does this. He sacrifices his entire life to take care of the Gibson family. If he is sick, he will drag and carry it himself. He’s very clear about his own condition.” Henry’s voice was weak. ‘Arthur is very important to me, Jo. You know very well that he doesn’t want us to divorce.” Henry was trying to suppress his emotions. He wanted to have a proper conversation with Josic.
He didn’t want to threaten her every time.
“I know I shouldn’t have created rumors with Ashley. Give me some time to solve it. Let’s start over, okay?” Henry really tried. his best to be gentle.
Josie looked at Henry quietly and was amused. “Who betrayed Arthur’s trust?”
“Think about Arthur…” Henry grabbed Josie’s wrist.
He really regretted divorcing Josie.
“I can promise not to tell Arthur about our divorce, but… Henry, you also have to promise not to interfere in my personal life anymore. Can you do it?” Josie took the opportunity to say her terms.
y provoked.
Josiel Arthur raised you, too. How could you make use of him to threaten me?” Henry could always be easily
Stop interfering in her personal life?
“What do you mean by not interfering in your personal life? Who do you want to be with? Samuel?” Henry’s voice was filled with anger.
Josie sighed. She knew that Henry’s gentleness was all camouflage. He would reveal his madness as soon as they started talking.
“My private life has nothing to do with you. Since we’re divorced, please let me go.” Josie shook off Henry’s hand.
“Josie!” Henry forcefully trapped Josie against the wall and whispered, “I’ve told you, it’s impossible! I can’t let you go… It’s never going to happen.”
When Henry finally understood his obsession, he couldn’t let
go.
It was not that he didn’t love Josie. He just… didn’t want to admit it.
At the age of 15, Josie returned to the Gibson residence. She was brought back home by John.
As soon as Henry got off the car after school, he saw the thin figure hiding behind John.
That was the first time he saw Josie.”
Jo, this is Harry, introduced John.
Josie was trembling, and her eyes were red and swollen, like a frightened rabbit.
Henry unconsciously stretched out his hand to protect the girl in front of him.

Chapter 83
But Henry resisted it. He knew that Josie was the eldest daughter of the Gibson family,
63%
He heard the servants talk about how Hayden had given up the inheritance right of the Gibson family, and John hoped that he would have a successor, so he adopted her.
Now that the orthodox daughter had returned, who would give the family inheritance to an outsider?
Besides, John was getting older. He had lowered his attitude to ask Hayden and his family to come back.
Henry didn’t care at first. But after listening to their words for a long time, it would inevitably become his concern.
He began to resist the return of Hayden and his family.
But in the end, only Josie came back.
“She is the daughter of the Gibson family. You all need to be observant. The Gibson residence may not belong to the outsiders in the future.”
Henry slowly withdrew his hand. The way he looked at Josie became complicated.
The sudden return of Josie made Henry feel a sense of crisis for the first time.
The desire to control and possess was taking root at the bottom of his heart.
He didn’t care much about everything in the Gibson family, but the more he felt that way, the more he wanted to keep it. Everything in the Gibson family, including Josie, could only belong to him.
He wanted to see how those unapproachable people would feel about being stepped on by someone like him.
The hallway of the hospital was quiet. There were only a few people in the inpatient department during the wee hours of the morning.
“Josie, Arthur is in poor health. Let’s let him spend the rest of his time in peace. I’m wrong about the media hype. I promise you to clarify it, and I will do it.‘ Henry spoke in a deep voice. He had been tired recently.
He really wanted to go back to the time before the divorce.
No matter how tired he was, there would always be a table of food prepared by Josie waiting for him.
Josie looked at Henry quietly and said in a deep voice, “You chose not to clarify the rumors because you were afraid that Ashley would take her own life. If you clarify the rumors, it can make Arthur feel at ease. It’s a matter of choice between. Ashley and Arthur. If you post a tweet now to clarify that you have nothing to do with Ashley. I may believe that Arthur really matters to you.”
