Chapter 128
“No, the police can’t catch me… Zachary seemed to be very confident.
“1-1 just want to talk to you. I’m afraid that you will be fooled by Ashley Zachary was afraid that Josie would misunderstand
him.
You’ve been watching me all these years, haven’t you?” Josie had an intuition that someone was always watching behind her.
She used to think that she was being paranoid, but Samuel said he had seen Zachary three years ago. Henry also said that he had seen Zachary before marriage.
Therefore, Zachary must have been watching her in the dark all this while.
“Don’t get me wrong. Zachary was so nervous that his palms were sweaty.
‘I believe you won’t hurt me. Over the years, he should have had a lot of chances to hurt her. “You told me about Ashley. What else do you need me to do for you besides warning me to watch out for her?”
1–I have been looking for evidence and timing to expose her true face so that everyone knows that my father was wronged. He is innocent” Zachary was shaking while he said that.
“I can help you.” Josie took a deep breath. If it weren’t for Ashley, she would have… What would happen? She probably wouldn’t divorce Henry and would be stuck in misery for the rest of her life.
But Josie had never thought about how happiness and freedom could be.
Ashley had framed and hurt her over and over again. If she didn’t learn to fight back, she would really deserve the torments.
She knew that she was weak. She admitted that she was not strong enough to fight against her enemies. Besides, she had no acting skills like Ashley and could easily win others‘ sympathy. Hence, she had to ally with others and use their power to defend herself.
She wanted to work with Henry against Spike because she knew very well that she wouldn’t be able to deal with Spike alone.
As for Ashley, Josie was sure that she had something to do with Quinton’s appearance in the hotel with her key card.
Ashley was not only backed by Hazel but also by others.
Therefore. Josie couldn’t fight alone.
“Y–You’re willing to help me?” Zachary was nervous and wanted to get close to Josie.
At the same time, he was afraid that Josie would be afraid of him.
“Yes. I’ll help you expose Ashley’s true face and let everyone know that she is a liar. We will clear your father’s name. I’ll ask those who have wronged your father to apologize to you.”
like this.”
Josie thought, “If Zachary hadn’t met Ashley in his life, he wouldn’t have ended like
It was apparent that he was very guilty and was bothered by his father’s death.
His father must be a kind person to adopt Ashley.
“A son of a great man was surely a virtuous man too, she thought to herself.
“Josie… Zachary didn’t know what to say. In fact, he didn’t expect Josie to help him. His purpose was to remind Josie so that

she would be careful of Ashley.
He wouldn’t mind whether she believed him or not.
“You’re injured… Josie’s eyes fell on the blood on Zachary’s fingers. Itis arm was injured and had not stopped bleeding.
Zachary hid his hands behind him nervously. “It’s okay. I scratched my hand when I tried to run away.”
“Wait for me here,” Josie said.
Josie turned around and ran for the first aid
Zachary hid in the corner nervously. He grabbed the scarf given by Josie tightly and was reluctant to wear it because it would be dirty.
He was panting heavily. He was afraid that it was all a ploy by Josic to distract him while she ran away to find the police.
Zachary wanted to flee. He had achieved his purpose of coming here. It was good to leave.
But for some unknown reasons, his feet remained rooted on the spot. He just wanted to wait for a little longer.
“Can I trust Josie?” he asked inwardly.
After buying disinfectant and ointment from the pharmacy, Josie ran back to the phone box quickly, but no one was there.
Josie ran out of breath and held the wall for a long time.
Zachary probably didn’t believe her.
After a long silence, Josie turned around and wanted to leave.
“Josie…” In the corner, it was Zachary.
He was still there.
There were security guards just now. I hid behind.”
Josie breathed a sigh of relief and felt sorry for Zachary
He had lived like this when he was hiding for ten years.
“Give me your arm.” Josie went to the corner and asked Zachary to show her his wound.
The wound was behind his shoulder.
Zachary was a little embarrassed. I–I can handle it myself, thank you”
“You can’t reach it there. It will get infected after some time.”
Im used to it… Zachary lowered his head.
Over the past ten years, he had been licking his wounds alone and hiding. He was like an object of hatred, as obnoxious to
everyone.
Not only were the police looking for him, but Henry, who believed Ashley’s words, had also been ordering people to pursue him for the past several years.
The scars on his body in recent years were all caused by Henry.

“Now, you have a partner, don’t you? So you don’t need to deal with it alone.” Josie smiled at Zachary. “Because we have common enemies. Aren’t the enemy of my enemy friends too!”
Zachary looked at Josie stifly. She was still as cute as she remembered.
She believed others so easily
Ten years ago, Josie was only 15 years old when Zachary first met her.
She was dressed in a white dress and looked like a princess from a fairy tale. She was so clean that no one dared to approach her.
“She is the child of the Gibson family. It’s obvious that she’s not the child of a housekeeper, so she must be the daughter of the Gibson family. If we can’t catch the son of the Gibsons, we can still take her away”
“There is too much surveillance. We need to find a way to trick her into following us.”
Josie was distracted by a stray dog. Those people knew that she would feed the stray dog on the roadside every day.
An injured puppy could easily fool her into following them.
She always believed in everyone so innocently.
Seeing that the people around him were going to kidnap a little girl, Zachary resisted at first. He also tried to remind Josie, but Josie thought that the puppy was his. “This puppy has an owner, right? It came to you with a collar on its neck. Are you the owner?”
Zachary was dumbfounded. Josie was really dazzling.
At that time, he was just an ordinary teenager. It was no surprise that he had a crush on a gorgeous lady like Josie.
Zachary didn’t know what to say. He did feed the puppy a few times because he felt connected to the puppy. He was also injured and homeless.
“It’s injured. You have to bandage it properly. Otherwise, the wound will be infected.” At that time, Josie didn’t seem to like laughing
She seemed to have experienced a long period of depression and had just come out of her home.
Then, she encountered a kidnapping.
Zachary’s accomplices drugged Josie and carried her away.
At that time, he was stiff in place, and his brain went blank with complicated emotions.
She was a kind girl.

Pulling off a sleeve, Zachary exposed his shoulder.
His body was burly. All those toned muscles must be the result of regular training and hiding all year round.
Although his back was covered by clothes, one could tell it must be full of scars.
Josie rinsed the wound with disinfectant. After making sure it wasn’t too deep, she bandaged it up.
If the wound was deep, he would have to get a tetanus shot.

the foot mat
Josie asked Zachary to go to the rental apartment she lived in before.
Zachary held the clothes tightly with his fingers and said after a long moment of silence, “Okay…”
“As for Ashley, she is too perfect in disguising and acting. She can ruin a person with public opinion.” Josie had fully experienced that herself,
The last time they fell into the water, those fans almost wanted to devour her.
If Sebastian hadn’t made the clarification, she would have been a victim of cyberbullying now.
