Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 48

Josie fell asleep. Even in her sleep, she didn’t feel secure.

Having cold sweats, she was sweating all the time, and the room without air conditioning was freezing.

‘Dad, Mom… Don’t leave me.”

Josie curled up in the blanket. She woke up slowly because of the pain in her back.

“It’s getting dark. Get up and drink some hot water.” Samuel looked solemn and touched Josie’s forehead. He asked, “What’s wrong?

Josie was asleep all day.

Josie learned to cook for Henry. There was an inconspicuous scar on the back of her hand, which was left after she was burned by hot oil when she first cooked.

“Grandpa sent me abroad and cut off my living expenses. I would’ve starved to death if I couldn’t cook… Samuel casually said as if he didn’t care at all.

But Josie could still see that he hadn’t had the best time while spending the past three years abroad.
