Chapter 30

That night, Henry made Josie feel a fear she had never experienced before.

Π

She had never seen Henty lose control, like a beast.

After three years of marriage, Henry rarely yearned for her, but he was always gentle each time.

Henry was a very picky man, and it was the same in this regard.

Josie knew Henry had strict requirements when selecting partners. At the very least, he was mysophobic about women.

She was very clean and was never touched by other men. This was the thing Henry was most satisfied with.

Henry once said. Josie, you are the wife with the best criteria I have chosen.”

She was the best because she was clean enough.

When she returned to the Gibson family at fifteen, she became more recluse.

Josie had almost no interaction with the opposite sex, except for Samuel, who made her cry.

Henry knew it very well.

Josie could understand Henry’s loss of control and madness that night because she crossed his bottom line and destroyed his standards

Yet, Josie could not understand why Henry tormented her this way when he despised her and thought she was filthy.

As she endured the pain numbly, Josie accepted Henry’s rage helplessly.

Josie finally lost consciousness, but she was glad she fainted.

Being

g awake would be the biggest torture for her.

“Josie!” Noticing she had fainted, Henry kicked Josie’s frail coffee table irritably.

In the end, they did not do it all the way. Henry still could not bear to torment Josie’s weak body.

Henry securely wrapped Josie in a blanket, took a deep breath, and held her tightly in his arms.

Only now would Josie be as obedient as usual when she fell asleep.

“Even though you just need to give a brief explanation…” Henry’s voice was hoarse.

“Why don’t you explain? What’s so good about Charles? What can he give you that I can’t?” Henry mumbled to himself as he carried Josie into the bedroom.

Henry rummaged through the medical kit to deal with the bruises on Josie’s wrist, which he had caused.
