Chapter 247
Gabriel looked at Leonardo in astonishment before casting another glance at Nina. He could not say a word.
“I told you they were adulterous couples…”
Julia wanted to continue cussing them, but Gabriel stopped her in panic. “Mr. Langford, are you kidding me?”
“This joke was not fun at all,” he thought.
“Do you think I have time to joke with yo
you
at this moment?” Leonar
Leonardo sneered and tightened his grip on Nina.
Nina’s body was slightly stiff, but she could not resist him
Looking back at Leonardo, Nina did not say anything.
“Mom… Let’s go first” Gabriel
el knew he could not afford to offend Leonardo, so he pulled his mom away in panic and left.
Julia wanted to continue cussing them, but she was intimidated upon meeting Josie’s stare. “Stop thinking you can threaten me with those things…”
Obviously, she did not have enough confidence as she spoke her words.
“If you continue to make trouble, I don’t mind exposing all of your son’s history of adulterous affairs. After all, Clusia Media Group specializes in this field. If these affairs come to light, your son will be a bachelor in his life. Let’s see which pure and good woman would want to marry him, Josie said threateningly.
Julia was so frightened that her face turned pale. These affairs were family matters, so naturally, she could not let others know about them. “Very good. The whole Turner family worked together to bully the two of us. Just wait for it!”
Seeing that Gabriel and her mom had left, Josie breathed a sigh of relief.
Samuel stretched out his hand and held Josie tightly in his arms. He did not know that his girlfriend was so formidable. “Jo, where did you get the evidence?”
“On the day you made Gabriel angry, I asked Jessica to find evidence for me in the Caligo Club… But she didn’t find any particularly useful evidence, so I didn’t get to tell you about it. I was just trying to frighten them just now,” said Josie with some embarrassment.
Samuel was so surprised that he wished he could take Josie home and ki*s her now.
“Our Jo was so domineering.” Leila gave her a thumbs–up. “There must be evidence to block their mouths when needed to deal with
such scoundrels.”
Nina also looked at Josie gratefully. “Jo, thanks to you”
“No, no. I think Gabriel was afraid of Leonardo, so he left.” Josie smiled and hurriedly waved her hand. Leonardo was the biggest
contributor.
Nina made a disdainful sound and rolled her eyes at Leonardo. She took a step aside from him and deliberately pulled the distance

away
Leonardo just smiled faintly and seemed to indulge Nina.
Josie also smiled with relief. She believed that eyes don’t lie.
“At least… Leonardo was sincere with Nina now she thought.
“Sorry, I’m going to answer the phone,” Josie’s phone rang.
Lewis frowned. The atmosphere around him was a bit low. He
come with me!”
e was obviously angry with G
Gabriel and his mom. “Nina! Both of you
Nina became a coward. She subconsciously hid behind Leonardo.
She was not afraid of anyone in this family, but Lewis.
Those who had served as soldiers were strict
In the courtyard, Josie answered the phone. “Hello?”
“Josie, do you remember me?” There was a false and disgusting voice on the other side of the phone.
“Ashley?” Josie’s face darkened instantly.
“Oh, it was rare that you still remember me, Josie.” Ashley s
smiled.
“Anything to say?” Josie asked in a deep voice, and continued, “If not, I’ll hang up.”
“Of course there is something. Do you remember Zachary?”
Josie’s fingers, which held the phone, stiffened. “What do you want to say?”
“Something happened to Zachary. Didn’t Henry tell you?” Ashley asked with a smile.
“What do you
you mean?” Josie’s heart tightened.
“What happened to Zachary?” she wondered.
“The police took Zachary away. If you don’t believe me, you can call Henry and ask. I believe you will come to me if you are interested.” Ashley did not say anything more. A direct threat would leave behind a subject for people to talk about for ridicule.
Josie’s face turned pale after hanging up the phone. “How would Ashley know about Zachary’s accident?” she thought.
In Gibson Corporation, Henry rubbed his eyebrows as he listened to the piece of news. “Mr. Gibson, Ashley
shley was not in her original residence, I don’t know where she went. Obviously, she is on guard, and the people of Spike also couldn’t find her.”
Ashley and
Hazel f
I must have discussed dealing with Zachary

Chapter 247
Zachary was still in the detention center. Although the evidence was insufficient, the surveillance footage caught Zachary kicking the door, which was very bad for him.
Even if he was not bullying Ashley, she was a public entertainer, and Zachary undoubtedly fell into Ashley’s trap by doing so.
It was hard for him to prove his innocence unless Ashley personally clarified or withdrew the case
“What’s the purpose of Ashley to do so?” Cecilia was a little confused.
“Thomas. I guess Ashley wanted to ask Josie to withdraw the case because Thomas had not pleaded guilty. The person who kidnapped Josie took the blame and clearly helped Thomas plead innocent. The police only caught Thomas sneaking into Josie’s ward. There was no substantive evidence to prove he wanted to hurt Josie.”
Henry guessed that Ashley was going to save Thomas.
“This woman is so vicious,” Cecilia said angrily. “Mr. Gibson, if Ashley’s target is Thomas, will she be looking for trouble with Ms.
Yates?”
ww could I forget that?” he asked himself inwardly.
Henry’s body stiffened for a moment. “… How could I forget
Even if Samuel could protect Josie, Henry was a little worried.
After checking the time, Henry got up and planned to look for Samuel and Josie.
These days, he had been escaping..
Since Josie was cured and discharged from the hospital, he had never appeared in front of Josie.
Buzz
Not sure whether it was a coincidence, but when Henry was thinking about her, Josie called him.
“Jo!” Henry’s voice was a little anxious. It had been a long time since he heard Josie’s call.
Humans were really ironic creatures. When Josie called him back then in the past, he would feel upset if she called too often because he was fearless, However, when he lost Josie, he found that her phone call was precious,
“Henry, did something happen to Zachary?” Josie’s voice was a little anxious.
Henry took a deep breath and thought, “As expected, she’ll ask.” He then asked her, “Did Ashley contact you?”
“Yes, she just called me.” Josie’s voice was in haste. “What’s wrong?”
“Jo, it’s hard to explain in a few sentences. Where are you? Let’s meet…” Henry could have actually said it on the phone, but he knew that because of the matter regarding Zachary, Josie will meet him.
He just wanted to take advantage of these opportunities to meet Josle more often.
He really missed her.
Chapter 247
“Okay, then the venue will be the coffee shop on the corner of Santalum Alley.”
Josie was worried about Zachary, so she agreed without hesitation.
Henry was breathing a little rapidly. He nervously walked to the door and looked back at Cecilia. He checked with her on his attire. “Cecilia, look… My clothes…
Cecilia felt a little sad and nodded with a smile. “Mr. Gibson, you are very handsome.”
Unfortunately, some things would never come back if they were lost.
No matter how hard he tried and how humble
le he was, some lost things would never return.
Obviously, Henry also realized this and lowered his head with a bitter smile. “I’ll go out for a while. Call me if anything happens.”
Cecilia did not know how to comfort him, so she nodded. “Okay, Mr. Gibson.”
