Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 50

In the rented apartment, Josie poured a glass of hot water. She read the resume while drinking the water. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Most of the resumes she sent were rejected for various reasons.

“Jo” Madelyn barged into Josie’s house with spicy chicken spaghetti and sat on a couch. T’m exhausted.”

“Where have you been?” Josie hurriedly calmed herself and walked to the couch with a smile.

“Aha, who bought you the flowers? Madelyn’s eyes fell on the flowers in the water bottle. She squinted. “Tell me the truth.”

Josie was stunned for a moment. “I bought it myself.”

“You’re lying. You almost have to go out to pick up water bottles for earning, and you say you bought the flower?” Madelyn knew that Josie liked flowers, and she also advised the latter to have a sense of ceremony in her life.

For Josie, only flowers sent by someone were meaningful and valuable.

Madelyn knew that Josie had been waiting for Henry to give her a bouquet of flowers, yet she though they were divorced.

i had not gotten one even

“Stop interrogating me. The spicy chicken spaghetti smells good.” Josie changed the topic and reached out to snatch Madelyn’s spicy chicken spaghetti.

“There’s yours. What’s the rush?” Madelyn and Josie played around on the couch.

The doorbell rang. Madelyn got up and went to open the door. “Who is it?”

As soon as she opened the door, Samuel stood outside with cooking ingredients and flowers, looking like a film star coming into reality.

“He’s so handsome!” Madelyn exclaimed silently.

Madelyn was a little embarrassed and stammered, “M–Mr. Turner, what are you doing here?”

Samuel smiled at Madelyn, and that smile was about to melt her heart.

She was lovestruck for a while before letting Samuel come in.

Samuel replaced the withered flowers with the newly bought balloon flowers. Then, he lifted the ingredients to the kitchen. “We’ll have a light dinner, okay?”

Samuel just wanted to keep Josie healthy as the doctor said it was crucial.

Madelyn was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the ground. She looked back at Josie.

Josie shrugged, expressing that she was clueless as well. Samuel just suddenly appeared and was good to her.

Madelyn ran to Josie and sat beside her out of curiosity. Jo, are you two dating?”

Josie shook her head. “No, I still don’t know his purpose.”

“Oh my!” Madelyn covered his face and squeezed her cheeks. “What an exciting story! Samuel can cook! Where can we find such a man? Gosh! Isn’t he better than Henry? Forget that scumbag and look at this handsome man. Your life will get prolonged!”

As if she had lived without regret, Madelyn lay on the couch and stared at Samuel in the kitchen almost lewdly. Jo, did you save the galaxy in your previous life? I’ve told you Samuel has an unusual feeling for you. He saved and helped you, and. even learned more about you from me.”

Josie was startled for a while, and she shook her head helplessly. “Maybe I destroyed the world in my previous life.”

“Only then do these men come to mess with me,” she thought.

Josie did not dislike Samuel, but she could not figure out what Samuel wanted. She always felt that something was strange

She felt a familiar feeling from Samuel, yet that feeling made her feel scared that she even subconsciously avoided it.

Josie knew it was a stress reaction to avoid getting hurt.

As Henry hurt Josie too much to the point that she was afraid someone would hurt her again, she instinctively protected herself by putting on layers of armor.

“I suddenly feel my spicy chicken spaghetti tastes bad,” said Madelyn as she coldly glanced at her spicy chicken spaghetti.

Josie grabbed Madelyn’s food with a smile. “Then I’ll eat it.”

Samuel washed the ribs and put them into the pot. When he came out of the kitchen, he saw Josie eating spicy chicken spaghetti.

“You can’t eat spicy food.” Samuel frowned, took the spicy chicken spaghetti from Josie, and put it in front of Madelyn. “You

eat this.”

Madelyn was stunned by the temptation of Samuel’s handsomeness.

Josie, too, was confused, and she became nervous

vous out of instinct.

Samuel took a deep breath and lied, “You’re weak. You’ll get a

acne if you

you eat it

it too much

Madelyn swallowed, stared at the spicy chicken spaghetti, and looked at Josie. “Won’t my face get acne as well? Mr. Turner, it’s obvious you bias toward Josie!”

I can’t help it. She’s my bias, Samuel raised his eyebrows charmingly

I’m sad to hear that… Madelyn lay at Josie playing dead.

Josie was frozen for a moment. Although she knew Samuel was joking, that feeling of being loved by someone was an unfamiliar experience for her..

Seeing Henry love Ashley and ignoring her feelings, Josie was more envious than broken–hearted.

“Oh yeah! By the way, next week will be a class reunion organized by our classmates from Acocester University. Do you want to go there? Jo will also attend the event!” Madelyn hugged Josie’s arm, secretly agreeing to the latter’s attendance.

In truth, Josie did not want to go to the class reunion and wanted to reject the invitation.

“Join us!” Madelyn held Josie’s arm. There are so many people who want to pursue Jo. You should have a sense of danger.”

Samuel narrowed his eyes and responded inwardly. “There are many people who want to steal her from me?”

“Jo, join me at the gathering. Do you bear to see me going there alone and getting bullied after I get drunk? Madelyn said with tears and snots.

Seeing that, Josie had no choice but to agree to join her.

“Samuel is a very good person, but he’s too handsome that I’m not sure how sincere he is. Jo, you have to consider it carefully, softly reminded Madelyn as soon as Samuel entered the kitchen

Madelyn was still worried that Josie would repeat her past mistake.

“What are you thinking about? I find staying single is quite good.” Josie patted Madelyn’s head. “Didn’t we promise that we

would spend the rest of our life together and go to a nursing home when we’re old?”

Madelyn agreed excitedly. “Yes, we’re true love.”

“But then something is odd. Ezra had put a lot of effort into contacting me in order to pursue you again. I saw his attitude was sincere enough, so I helped him to ask you out. Why did he suddenly disappear these days? I tried to contact him a few days ago, but he blocked me. What’s going on?” Madelyn was rendered speechless by Ezra’s actions.

Josie did not think too much. “Maybe he thought things through since I’m a divorced woman.”

What’s wrong with being divorced? The most beautiful girl in our class, Rebecca, dated seven boys a week. She did not even feel inferior, while you only dated Henry. So what are you afraid of?” Madelyn rolled her eyes and took a bite of the spicy chicken spaghetti.

thinking for a while, she put down her fork and remembered, “Forget it. It’ll grow pimples.”

Josie emotionlessly sat on the couch, not saying a word.

Henry had stopped her from working at Dahon Corporation, and he also tried all means to prevent her from passing job interviews. It was not a big deal if she was interrupted for a few days, but how could she get 450 thousand dollars if she did not work for quite some time?

With that thought, Josie’s breathing was getting more rapid, and she unconsciously rubbed his fingers with force that she did not even notice her fingernail was already bleeding.

“To what extent is Henry going to force me… she wondered..

The doorbell rang again.

Madelyn was puzzled. “Did you call your other friends?”

Josie shook her head, and her palms were sweating. “Is it Henry?” she murmured to herself.

“Heh, what a lively day. Madelyn’s expression changed in an instant after opening the door. “I can even smell the vixen scent behind the door. Isn’t this our superstar?”

Josie frowned and stood up immediately. “How do you know I’m living here?”

Ashley looked grim and stood by the door weakly. “Josie, I’m here to ask you a favor.”
