Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 88

However, Henry merely sat ths ere quietly without any intention of stepping forward to help Josic.

“Well, since no one has any objection, I’m more than happy to oblige.” The smirk on Quinton’s lips was meaningful and sarcastic. He reached out to grab Josie’s wrist and pulled the woman into his arms. “Don’t be afraid. You don’t suffer any loss either. I think my dad wants me to marry you.”

“You all indeed… share the same blood. You’re disgusting” Josie tried hard to break free from Quinton’s clutch. Her eyes réddened, but she stubbornly held back her tears.

“What am I still holding on to? Not only does Henry not love me, but he even wants to give me away to somebody else!” she lamented inwardly.

“Since you also agree with this marriage, Mr. Gibson, why don’t you let the couple spend some time together tonight? If they can get along well, then they can get married right away. What do you think?” Spike’s tone remained indifferent.

However, he never stopped threatening Henry.

Henry did not speak, but his fists underneath the table turned so pale that his veins bulged.

“Mr. Gibson, as a member of the Gibson family, how much dowry are you willing to offer since the bride is Ms. Yates herself?” Spike got up as he spoke. From his expression, he looked as if his son had to sacrifice a whole lot solely by marrying Josie.

“Dad, I don’t mind the fact that she’s having a second marriage. I’ve always had a thing for other people’s ex–wife, especially if she’s Mr. Gibson’s ex–wives. Quinton yanked Josie toward himself. Clearly, he was purposely doing so for Henry to see.

I’ll give you 20 percent of Gibson Corporation’s original issue shares. How about that?” Henry lifted his hand slightly before slowly grabbing the wine glass on the table.

Josie looked at Henry in despair.

She scoffed inwardly, “Huh! So, I’m only a pawn Henry uses to justify transferring his shares away and giving the Gibson family’s assets away? Or did the father–and–son duo plan this from the beginning? Whatever it is, in the eyes of those three people, I’m nothing but a puppet, a commodity, and an asset to gather more fortune and power.”

*20 percent? You control almost 100 percent of the shares, Mr. Gibson, but you’re only willing to give me a measly 20 percent? Don’t forget I’m actually willing to accept the fact that you’re merely giving away something you no longer want,” commented Quinton in a deep voice.

“How much do you want?” Henry rose to his feet and walked over to Quinton with the glass of wine in his hand, staring loftily at Quinton.

The latter tightened his grip on Josie. To agitate Henry, he even lifted Josie’s chin and scrutinized her face. “Since Ms. Yates‘ beauty is really to my liking, I want half of what you have. I hope I’m not asking too much.”

A snicker escaped from Henry’s lips. He tilted the glass of wine and steadily poured the wine all over Quinton’s face. “I could give it to you, but would you be able to take it?”

“Henry!” Quinton was enraged.

Henry then turned around and looked at Spike, who looked pretty upset, before speaking again. “You’ve been overindulging in this blockhead. If things carry on like this, we won’t know what’s going to happen to him next.”

“What do you mean?” asked Spike in a cold tone.
