Chapter 16
Jolie was stunned for a moment, and her eyes slightly reddened.
She thought, “So, he’s feeling hungry. Does that mean I’ll have to cook for him with no complaints?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Go buy some breakfast, it’ll save time.”
Henry tightened his grip on the cigarette butt. “I don’t eat breakfast outside.”
Glancing at Henry. Josie wondered how she had forgotten that Henry was very picky about food.
After all, he had become picky because she spoiled him.
Tl make it.” Eventually, Josic compromised.
She thought this would be her last time making breakfast for Henry.
Henry watched Josie walk into the kitchen quietly, and his tightened heart seemed to relax slightly.
In the past, he seldom calmed down to see what Josie did every day.
He got used to Josie getting up early every day, making breakfast, waking him up, and doing housework.
Initially, he thought Josie was dispensable in his life.
“I’ll make some spaghetti since you had too much wine. Let’s leave after you eat some. The City Hall’s employees will be off work at noon.
Josie had been urging Henry to get a divorce, which made him very upset.
It looked like Josie was the one who tried every means to get:
to get a divorce.
It was as though she had never loved and had enough of him.
“Are you planning to be with that man after our divorce?” Henry was inexplicably angry.
Josie put down the cutleries and nodded.
“I suggest you think it through. Even if you hold 20% of Grandpa’s shares, it doesn’t mean you will live comfortably for the rest of your life, Henry threatened.
Henry wanted to divorce Josie and leave her with nothing from the start, not because he didn’t want to give her anything. but because he wanted her to know that her life would change dramatically without him.
She would naturally come back to him when she suffered.
After all, Henry didn’t think he must divorce Josie.
He admitted that he married Josie three years ago to inherit from the Gibson family and wanted to divorce her as soon as possible.
However, after three years together, he got used to it.
No one better had appeared to replace Josie.
Compared to other women, he preferred Josie, an obedient, sensible, and unclingy woman, to stay with him.
“Jo, you have to think about it again. It’s still not too late to give up on getting a divorce.”

Ding dong!
The doorbell rang as soon as Henry took a bite of his spaghetti.
Suddenly, Henry gave off an oppressive air. He didn’t want anyone to interrupt his conversation with Josie.
Without answering him, Josie got up to open the door.
A marriage without love was like a grave.
The
person who loved more would eventually suffer more.
Henry…”
As soon as Josie opened the door, Ashley walked in happily while holding a breakfast box. Her face instantly darkened when she saw Josie.
She thought. “Why is she still here? Didn’t they already sign the divorce agreement?”
“Why are you here?” Ashley sounded a little angry.
Td like to ask you something too. Didn’t you move in? Why hasn’t your fingerprint been added to the door lock yet?” Josie said indifferently with subtle irony.
“You!” Ashley was infuriated.
Then, Josie turned around and took her bag. She almost looked like she was trying to escape. “Mr. Gibson, I’ll wait for you at the entrance of the City Hall at ten o’clock sharp.”
“Josie!” Henry put down his fork and wanted to go after her.
“Henry, is Josie going to the City Hall to register for divorce?” Ashley held Henry’s arm nervously.
Seeing Josie leave without looking back, Henry felt inexplicably upset and even irritable at Ashley’s presence.
“Henry, I’ll take care of you for the time being since Josie wants to get a divorce. Let’s wait until she forgives you.” Ashley looked at Henry.
“You have a weak body. You’d better take good care of yourself.” Henry avoided Ashley imperceptibly.
Ashley’s request to cohabitate with Henry was refused, making her bite her lips indignantly.
It seemed that making Josie and Henry get a divorce was not enough.
She had to find a way to make Henry marry her willingly.
Only when she became the wife of the owner of Gibson Corporation could she be on firm footing in Hofcaster.
“Henry, I bought you a roast beef sandwich from Mandalay Bay. This spaghetti doesn’t taste good.” Ashley wanted to take the spaghetti away.
“I’m not used to eating food from outside. Henry took back the noodles and felt more appetized by Josie’s breakfast.
Ashley stood still awkwardly, unable to say a word.
