Chapter 121

“There is not enough evidence to send Spike to prison, right?” Josie asked, her breath trembling.

Because of the resentment toward Josie’s parents, Spike wanted to take their lives with his own hands.

He was… so crazy that there was not a sense of humanity left in him.

This person was simply terrifying.

“I’ve been looking for evidence all these years, Spike has been too cautious, and… he doesn’t seem to trust me. Henry shook his head at Josie. “Now it seems that Quinton is Spike’s only weakness. He would go to great lengths to fight for his son. He wanted Quinton, instead of me, to inherit all of the Gibson family’s property. That way, his son would be cleansed from the darkness he carries”

He would rather live on the e

He wished Quinton could switch places with Henry, just so the former could lead a different life.

“Spike. His extreme bias is so twisted.” Josie looked down at the ground, unwilling to look at Henry.

However, according to Cecilia, his brusqueness would scare people away, so Henry thought he would put it in a roundabout

way.

“I want to protect you in a different way” Henry carefully held Josie’s finger.

“Let’s work together.” Josie dodged Henry’s hand, annoyance was written on her face. “We could work together to deal with Spike, but we are divorced. Please show some respect.”

Henry touched the tip of his nose awkwardly and nodded. ‘Sure. Whatever you say.”

Josie’s mind was in a mess. “Henry, if you meant to say that half–heartedly. I don’t think there’s anything left to say between.
