Chapter 86

May

“No matter what happens, call me at once, said Samuel in a non–negotiable manner. He was really worried about Josie.

He had asked someone to investigate the past of the Gibson family. Although many things could not be investigated, there were surely some personal feuds between the Gibson family and the Taibbi family.

As Henry said, it was probably not a mere coincidence that John had adopted him back then.

“Did something happen?” Josie looked up at Samuel.

“It was possibly Spike’s men, but there is no evidence.” Samuel didn’t hide it from Josie. He didn’t want to lie to Josie as Henry did.

Letting her know the truth might even help her to be more vigilant.

“Spike…” Josie frowned.

She couldn’t figure it out.

She and Henry had divorced, and she had left the marriage with nothing. Henry had gotten all the assets of the Gibson family as he wished as well.

“So, why is Spike still trying to mess with me? What is he still afraid of?” she wondered.

“I’m going out.” Josie got up, planning to see Charles.

“Jo” Samuel was worried and wanted to follow her.

“Samuel, let me handle it myself. Give me some time.” Josie shook her head at Samuel and left Samuel’s house with her coat.

She didn’t want to involve Samuel

Samuel cursed in frustration. Suddenly remembering something, he put on his coat and left the house as well.

Since Lewis and John were close friends, he figured Lewis surely knew about the grudges between the Taibbi family and the Gibson family.

At the subway station, Josie called Charles, but he didn’t answer.

But soon, Charles called back.

“Josie, where are you?” On the phone, Charles’s voice sounded anxious.

“Damn it! I can’t get rid of these madment he cursed.
