Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 195

Chapter 195
Samuel’s sisters were all there in his house, making the living room lively.
Feeling a little bashful, Josie cautiously walked out of the room. Hello…” she said.
“Josic, I bought you something nice to eat. Would you like to eat them? Leila smiled as she held out the box of spicy chicken spaghetti. She had brought plenty of other tasty treats as well.
“She can’t eat any of these, Samuel said, frowning. As if to shield Josie from the temptations of the food, he held her in his
arms.
“Perhaps just a little?” Josie looked at Samuel pitifully.
Samuel narrowed his eyes. “It’s useless to act cute. The doctor said you shouldn’t eat anything spicy”
Tasked for one portion that isn’t spicy Leila felt sorry for Josie, who was unable to eat anything pungent.
“No pepper, no life, Nina said, chuckling. She turned to Leila and said. All right. I know this is for yourself. Now, move
over.”
Then, Nina took out the soup that Tania had made from its thermos and gave it to Josie. This is from
Josie felt very warm, though a little nervous and unsure of how to respond to their kind gestures.
Mom
This is a pendant that I got from the Church of Tessia for you. The priest said it was consecrated to symbolize good health and long life. Mandy hung the pendant necklace around Josie’s eeck and said. “Wear this. I’m sure you’ll get better.”
Moved, Josie’s eyes were slightly red. Thank you, Nina…
“Our mother asked us to give this to you. It’s a family heirloom She wouldn’t even pass it on to her daughter. Her favoritism shows Leila handed Josie a box
Josie shot Samuel a nervous glance, flustered by the sudden gifting of the Turner family heirloom. She could not bring herself to take it.
Samuel said earnestly, “My mother wants you to have this. Take it. She will be sad if you don’t want it.”
Hearing that, Josie quickly took the box, fearing that her mother-in-law might be upset if she did not accept the gift.
“This one is from me.” Leila handed a small box to Josie.
“Oh, no. You don’t have to give this to me, Leila Josie was getting increasingly nervous. She had not officially confirmed her relationship with Samuel and was unsure if the treatment would work.
Josie feared that she would be a burden to Samuel if her treatment was a failure.

“You can have it, Josie. It’s not something expensive. It was given to me by the church. It is a charm to keep you safe. Leila insisted
Nina raised her eyebrows at her superstitious sister and said, “Don’t worry. My gift will not be as corny as theirs. I’ll give you something when you’ve finished your treatment
Josar nodded and looked over to Samuel
Samuel held Josie in his arms and let her collect the gifts, suggesting that she should take them from his sisters.
After all they were not expensive gifts.

The heirloom bracelet passed down from his grandmother was merely worth around 900 thousand dollars.
Jo, I hope you can be happy
Josie nodded. She was so moved that she could not speak.
The whole family sat around the coffee table for dinner. They did not have so many rules of dining etiquette. They simply
sat on the floor.
“We’re honored to have the privilege of tasting the food Samuel booked. We would never be able to if it wasn’t for Josie.” Nina was the first to tease Samuel.
“That’s right. He hasn’t cooked a grain of rice for us since we raised him.” Leila chimed in, smiling.
Mandy was a little cold and distant. She ate quietly, nodding from time to time. “This tastes like something you would have after giving birth.”
Samuel looked at his sisters with disdain. “Do not speak while you eat. Can you be quiet for a moment?”
Josie held back her laughter as she watched their banter. She sat crossed-legged and had her meal with a joyful heart.
Before meeting Samuel, she could never have imagined living in such happy, heartwarming times.
Josie thought that she would not adapt well to a new environment and would not be able to lead a normal life. But it turned out better than she thought.
While Josie was lost in her thoughts, a sauteed broccoli fell on her clothes. Samuel immediately handed her a napkin.
Although the trivial details could seem insignificant, Josie felt appreciated.
Samuel cared deeply for her.
Out of kindness, Leila suggested, “Jo, I think you should quit your job and focus on taking care of yourself, even when you’re done with treatment. It’s not like we couldn’t afford to give you good life.”
Josie’s hand that was holding the bowl of oatmeal froze for a moment. She was inexplicably afraid when she thought about what would become of her if she stopped working.
She dreaded being a housewife and accomplishing nothing in life.
That kind of life would only be bleak, just like her previous marriage with Henry.
“If things are going well for her at work, why must she stop working? She is contributing to society by working. The country has put so much effort into nurturing talented people, and we must repay society.” Nina retorted. “Besides, Josie is highly

educated. She was a genius during her school days, unlike an underachiever like you, Leila. It’s tines, Josie is highly
“I’m an underachiever? I wonder who was complaining that work was too busy and that she needed me. Do you think I stay home only to live off of my parents?” Leila retaliated. The two sisters got into a heated argument.
“You two are unbelievable… Mandy said with disdain. She was tired of seeing Nina and Leila fight whenever they saw each other.
Leila was not as experienced as Nina.
“Jo, come to work at Clusia Media Group. You can help Samuel qut,” Nina said, changing the subject.
“She’s been helping me all the time, Nina, Samuel said earnestly

Josie thought Samuel was helping her to get out of the awkward situation. She smiled and kept silent.

This oatmeal porridge is really good. I think Samuel should be the homemaker. He’s so good at cooking. He could even be a professional cook, Mandy said, remarking sarcastically from time to time.
Samuel glanced at Mandy and said, “Not in a million years.”
