Chapter 89
‘Mr. Turner,” said Spike meaningfully upon seeing Sammel leaving with Josie in his arms. “Is Mr. Lewis Turner still alive?”
‘My grandpa would still be alive even after you’re dead.” Samuel shot a frosty gaze at Spike and tightened his embrace
round Josie.
Ha. I see that you’re still as harsh as ever, Mr. Turner.”
Spike simply sat there indifferently.
Samuel then patted Josie’s back, saying reassuringly, “Stay here and wait for me.”
Mick releasing Josie, Samuel walked toward Spike.
Quinton was took a step forward as if he was afraid that Samuel would hurt Spike. “Samuel, we’ve met again… In the past shree years when I was abroad, you were living like a stray dog. What’s the matter? Did the Turner family want you back again since you managed to stay alive all these years?”
“It was really my mistake to have not ended your life while you were in Muprary.” Samuel glared at Quinton condescendingly and pulled the latter by his shirt collar. “You and your father should’ve known your place before you harmed my woman.”
Quinton furrowed his brows. A trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Quinton turned and sneaked a peek at Spike and appeared to be quite upset,
“Dad, is this the woman you asked me to marry after coming back from abroad? I thought she only had a marriage with Henry. I didn’t expect her to be involved with Samuel as well. What a lot of surprises this type of women bring!” Quinton did not expect Josie to have been with both Henry and Samuel. Even if he himself was a player, he would refrain from marrying someone as cheap as Josie for no reason.
Right then, Samuel lost control and grabbed Quinton by the collar, pressing the latter against the wall of the cabin with a loud thud.
Smirking slightly, Quinton called out sarcastically, “Help, officer! Someone here is trying to beat me up!
“Samuel…” Josie stepped forward anxiously and shook her head at Samuel. “Don’t mess with these mad people. Let’s just go.”
In her eyes, Spike and his two sons were all insane.
At that moment, the police were still interrogating Henry, so they were not aware of the commotion that was going on at the same time. After all, Henry was injured.
As for Henry, his gaze never left Josie until Samuel brought her away.
“Have you been following Quinton?” Samuel inquired in a deep voice when they arrived at the rented place.
“Yes. That playboy is always either at nightclubs or bars.”
“Teach him a lesson. Samuel would not hesitate to resort to extreme ways to teach Quinton a lesson.
“Before that, Samuel, there’s something I need you to know. The Taibbi family isn’t that easy to deal with. No matter how incapable Taibbi Corporation appears to be, they have more than just a gang backing them up, and that backer is evil indeed. Spike was not a gambler like the rumors claimed. In truth, he was the owner of several large casinos in Glenport.
Spike was definitely no ordinary man.

Chapter 89
“Don’t say that.” Henry placed a glass of water in front of Arthur.
“Henry, I’ve been looking after you since you were a kid. Tell me the truth. Is there something wrong between you and Josie?” Arthur was still worried about Henry.
The other day, Ashley had called the Gibson residence and accidentally mentioned the divorce between Henry and Josie.
Arthur did not believe it, for no matter what, he did not think that the two of them would take it that far.
“I’ve done a lot of things that caused her to misunderstand me, but I’m trying to fix it. I won’t let Josie leave me,” Henry réassured in a deep voice.
Henry, Josie is a good girl. Don’t let her down.”
Henry nodded, feeling a stinging pain in his wound.
“Mr. Gibson…” Henry’s subordinate called from outside the ward, sounding a bit nervous.
Henry drew his brows together, then he stood up and walked out.
“Something happened to Quinton from the Taibbi family”
Henry’s face darkened instantly. He took a deep breath and asked, “Who did it?”
“He was beaten up by somebody at the nightclub. I heard he was badly injured. The subordinate dared not say it explicitly.
Henry lifted his hand and rubbed his forehead. He had no more energy left to reprimand Samuel.
Without even needing to guess, he knew it was Samuel who had tried to provoke Spike.
By teaching Quinton a lesson, Samuel was, in fact, getting on Spike’s nerves.
“What an idiot! He’s always screwing things up!” fumed Henry. In his eyes, Samuel was always so impulsive and never thought about the consequences of his actions.
In Henry’s opinion, if one did not have the means to finish the enemy off once and for all, the person would only be taking foolish risks and be counterattacked by the enemy.
As for Spike, he was like a venomous snake with sharp fangs.
If Spike was provoked at a time like this, Henry could not imagine what sort of repercussions would be awaiting Josie.
Besides, Samuel had no clue what advantage Spike might have over himself. “By going all out like this, does he not even care about the consequences his actions have on the Turner family anymore?” Henry wondered.
Just then, Henry’s phone buzzed. It was a call from Spike.
Fists clenching slightly, Henry answered the call.
“Something happened to Quinton.” On the other end of the line, Spike’s voice was icy and completely void of emotions. “Come back”
“I’m the one who did it, uttered Henry in a low voice.
A long silence then came from the other end of the line. Spike took a moment before repeating his words. “Come back.” That response was short and simple, yet it was enough to make one shudder.
