Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 36

“This is my first time seeing a vixen as shameless as you!” Madelyn spat through gritted teeth. She was not planning to show Ashley any respect. “Get out of here. You’re a celebrity, and I’m just an ordinary person. Don’t force me to turn you into tomorrow’s headlinel”

Ashley frowned. She was indeed afraid of aggressive people like Madelyn. “I came to visit you because I was worried about you, Josie How can your friend do this to me?”

Josie was not in the mood to deal with Ashley. It was not that she could not win against her, but she was merely lazy to do so.

It was meaningless.

She had decided to divorce Henry and had no intention of remarrying him. Thus, it was meaningless to argue with Ashley.

No matter what Josie did, she would end up losing.

Ashley also knew that Josie would definitely lose. That was why she kept provoking her with the attitude of a winner.

However, there were limits to people’s patience. “My advice for you is to be smart, Ashley. Let’s mind our own business and live harmoniously. But if you mess with me, I believe you won’t be able to live comfortably,” Josie said.

Ashley squinted. “Look at her, lying on the hospital bed, yet she’s still pretending to be holier–than–thou,” she scoffed internally before saying, “You’ve misunderstood me, Josie.”

“Get out!” Josie yelled through furrowed brows.

“Recently, reputation has been relatively important to those in the entertainment industry. You’re a public figure. Do you think you’ll still be able to survive in the industry if the news about you being a mistress gets proven and released?” Madelyn asked as she guarded Josie’s bedside. If Ashley dared to get closer, Madelyn would not hesitate to be violent.

Madelyn had nothing to lose anyway.

“But Josie and Henry have signed a confidentiality agreement. My future doesn’t matter, but what about Josie’s?” Ashley asked with a sneer.

Josie clenched her fists until her knuckles started making cracking noises. Even the act of swallowing became difficult for her after hearing Ashley’s words.

“Henry sure has no secrets against Ashley. He even told her about the confidentiality agreement,” Josie thought bitterly as her fingers trembled, trying her best to hold herself back.

She did not want to get out of control anymore, as it would only turn her into the laughing stock.

“Aren’t you ashamed?” Madelyn snapped. The fire to her anger was instantly lit as soon as she heard about the confidentiality agreement. She turned to Josie and asked, “What did that bastard Henry ask you to sign?”

Josie’s eyes reddened at the question, yet she remained silent.

Madelyn could not help but give Ashley a loud, crisp slap. The situation instantly became chaotic. “Get out! You’re not welcome here!”

Meanwhile, Henry coincidentally came into the ward. “Ashley!” he cried out. As if it was a reflex, he instantly pulled Ashley behind him upon seeing Madelyn slap her.

Madelyn, on the other hand, was pushed away by Henry and fell to the ground.

“Henry, you bastard! What agreement did you trick Jo into signing?” Madelyn asked, feeling a sense of unjust on behalf of Josie.
