Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 111 Recording Pen
Tomorrow marked the debut of the first runway show.To prevent any mishaps, Joey brought her dress to her room for a quick inspection. However, upon opening the door, she was startled to find Zachary seated inside.Zachary had returned to the company the day before, and Joey thought he would only be back tomorrow. His sudden appearance in her room added to her nervous mood."Didn't expect to see me?" Zachary set down her usual scribbles.Joey had sketched some random fashion designs on those notes. She did not think Zachary, who was usually indifferent, would suddenly be checking them out."I heard you're back at the office, so finding you in my room was quite unexpected," Joey mentioned, throwing in an excuse. Holding her dress, she walked into the room and casually shut the door. Zachary's gaze shifted to the dress. "Isn't Selena in charge of dress inspections? Why's she passing it on to you?""She's been busy all day, and her eyes are tired. She asked me to help with the d
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 112 She Is Chloe
At 6:00 a.m., Zachary got his hands on everything Henry had gathered these past few days. He went through pictures of Joey's scribbles he took last night and laid out the design drafts Henry had compiled.Joey's scribbles featured various small patterns, and Zachary meticulously compared them to the ones on Chloe's previous design drafts.When he came across the identical crane illustration, Zachary placed his phone on the design draft and scrutinized it closely.Joey's play with light and shadow on the crane was a dead match for Chloe's version in her old design drafts.The play of light and shadow served as a significant indicator of one's artistic talent. It would be impossible for Joey to quickly emulate the essence of Chloe's design, no matter how gifted she may be.Zachary squinted and continued flipping through the design drafts, searching for similarities. As time passed, he continued the comparative analysis.Zachary picked up the last design draft and compared it with J
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 113 Not Into You
Kent felt Zachary's question was oddly weird. They were a married couple, and for his wife to practically consider him dead, didn't that just mean he was as useless to her as a deceased person?In other words, it was like being a widower without the actual funeral. Or perhaps it was just the whole messy thing with Julia.So, Kent looked at him and went, "You and Julia, uh, share a bed regularly or something?""Are you nuts?" Zachary shot him a glare. Kent quickly straightened up. "I can see Joey holds some resentment toward you. She didn't even tell you that she's Chloe. Your role as a husband seems quite negligent, don't you think?"Zachary's gaze turned icy, and he grumbled, "Oh, stellar job as a husband, no doubt. In her world, I'd probably miss my funeral and still be clueless about it."Kent shivered from the coldness around Zachary. Hesitatingly, he asked, "Zachary, what do we do now? "She won't reveal her true profession, and it's not wise for us to confront her dir
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 114 Master Copycat
Henry passed the phone to Zachary. Kent was a bit annoyed. He wondered why he didn't get to watch the video when he was right next to Henry.As Henry approached Zachary, the video started playing. Kent quickly crowded in to get a better view. The video had a sensational title."Shocking! Big-shot designer caught being a master copycat! Design and clothes? All faked with an assistant's hand!"In the video, Joey came out of Selena's room holding partially finished garments. However, the garments she secretly took back to Selena's room the next day had magically turned into complete outfits.It happened for three days straight. As the video wrapped up with a dark screen, the hum of a sewing machine filled the air. When the sewing machine fell silent, Joey's voice emerged from the same spot."There's still a lot of details to finish up. I'll take these back to the room and work a bit more. You should get some rest.""It's quite late already, and there are still two days left. Why the
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 115 Stepping In
Selena sneered, "As my fan, you accused me last time of getting the competition theme early through my assistant. "Now, with video and audio recordings, you're trying to make me admit plagiarism. You're quite the devoted fan, huh?"Allie retorted, "I'm not entirely convinced the last incident wasn't true. After all, you do have a pretty impressive assistant." She finished with a meaningful glance at Joey.Joey calmly responded, "Why don't you tell everyone how impressive I am, to the point of predicting competition themes in advance?"Allie didn't dare to continue and just smiled knowingly. "For those in the know, well, they know.""Ms. Porter, by throwing these accusations around, if the truth comes out, maybe it's time to rethink your career in design. And Ms. Fisher, after twice spreading rumors about Chloe, shouldn't you think about offering a sincere apology?" Joey shot back, her tone laid-back but with an underlying intensity.Julia sneered, "What's your deal, being ju
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 116 Still Backing Her
Jerome shot a glance at Uriah before speaking."According to Ms. Fisher and Ms. Porter, we should collaborate to remove individuals like Ms. Linton and Ms. Sanders, who deceive the public from the program team."His words left no room for doubt about where he stood with Selena and Joey. Zachary's gaze landed on Selena. "What do you have to say?""I want to stress that the video content is entirely false. Mr. Gray should be able to verify that, right? "And let's not forget, I wasn't keen on joining in the first place, but you coerced me into signing a contract. Now, you're damaging my reputation. I need an explanation," Selena asserted, chin lifted and eyes piercing.Zachary narrowed his eyes. Despite knowing Chloe was a part of this program team, Selena's attitude seemed too bold. Could it be that she and Joey had seen this coming?Zachary asked, "What's your take on this?"Selena looked at Joey. Joey stepped forward, her gaze as calm as a still lake. "I'll be speaking on b
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 117 Suddenly Knew How to Placate People
Zachary noticed the change in her gaze and recalled Kent saying that she disliked him. His brows furrowed instantly. Joey's gaze went from cold to indifferent. "If she doesn't apologize online for what happened this time, don't expect us to design any clothes for her. Believe it or not, I can cut all the finished clothes into pieces!" "Why do you have to go against her? I'll—"She interrupted him sharply. "I don't want to hear this from you! Emmen relied on Chloe's name to get started. What she did today sabotaged my livelihood. That's no different from killing someone's parents, do you understand?!" "Are you deliberately targeting her because you're angry that I protected her?" he asked."Zachary, even if you spread the word that you are sleeping with her right now, I wouldn't be angry." Her expression was indifferent. He took a deep breath at her words. He stared at her. "So you're allowed to say anything you want if she doesn't apologize? Emmen is that important to yo
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 118 Clear Her Name
Joey was in a bad mood as she returned to Selena's room. She saw her spacing out on the couch. Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, Selena snapped out of her reverie. She immediately looked at Joey. "What did he say?""He said he'll have Julia apologize. We'll carry on as planned, but I don't want to let it go like this." Joey sat by Selena's side. There was a coldness in her blue eyes. Selena looked at her. Her gaze slowly grew cold too. "You want to go against Julia? Won't Zachary take his anger out on Emmen?""Selena, don't you think that we're manipulated by Zachary and Julia because we've been afraid of this situation all along? There's no point in constantly tolerating this. It wouldn't solve anything," Joey said calmly.Selena slowly calmed down. She said softly, "You're right.""Let's wait for the results from the production team. Once it's out, we'll start the next phase of the plan, but you'll have to be prepared to lose your money."Upon hearing this,

Joey shot him a cold glance. "You and he are both the same, so neither of you should be laughing at the other."Zachary nodded. "You're right, but I've turned over a new leaf now.""Let's go. Enough about him," Joey said. She was annoyed whenever Henry was brought up.He had a great girl willing to be with him, yet he was still unhappy. Any other man would have been grinning from ear to ear.They arrived at the restaurant, and while Joey ordered the food, Zachary sent a message to Henry."You should think about this. Joey and Grandma just want you to have someone by your side in the future, which is why they're saying these things."Don't give up on her just because of what her parents said. Having someone who genuinely likes you is rare."From Zachary's perspective, Henry had a pretty good start. Tessa didn't mind his circumstances, so what was he dissatisfied with?Henry quickly replied, "I know. I'll think about it carefully."In truth, Henry found it all a bit troublesome.
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 576 Not Blinded by Love
Henry was immediately startled and started stammering, "O-Okay."As soon as Joey hung up the phone, she turned to see Tessa, who was crying pitifully, and handed her a tissue.Tessa took the tissue and sobbed without saying a word.Monica had prepared some desserts for her and looked at her with compassion. "Henry has never been in love before. Plus, he's straightforward and doesn't know how to talk properly. There's no need to cry."Joey thought that Henry just didn't love Tessa enough. Otherwise, how could he say such things?Tessa's eyes were swollen and red. Her tears continuously streamed down. "I know he doesn't like me. Maybe he just agreed to the relationship because I pursued him."Joey patted her shoulder. "In love, if one person is too proactive, the other will seem passive. The fact that you dared to love already makes you braver than many.""What's the point? He doesn't care about me at all." Tessa sniffled."Here, eat something," Monica said. "Feelings like love d
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 575 Committed to You
No one tried to persuade Henry further, but Zachary continued to say to him, "Come with me to choose a location for the security company. It's worth doing."Henry was a bit speechless. "I'm not even pursuing the relationship anymore. Why should I still think about the security company?"Zachary responded, "Do you plan to cling to Joey's coattails your whole life? Once the business is set up, you can have apprentices teach others, and you can become a hands-off boss in a year or two."With that, Zachary headed out.After they left, Monica sighed in disappointment. "And I here I thought Henry had found someone good for him.""I think it's quite normal. Finding a good woman isn't easy," Joey said.Henry was indeed a good person, but with one eye missing and his job as a bodyguard, it was inevitable that Tessa's parents would worry."How disappointing," Monica murmured repeatedly.Joey didn't know what else to say and could only comfort her. "There's still a chance. What if Tessa d
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 574 Second Thoughts
Joey snorted. "You looked down on me and thought I had no opinions back then."Zachary pulled her into his arms. "Joey, do you like the person you are now or the person you were before?""What about you?" Joey asked him."I liked you from the beginning. Do you think I would have pursued you for so long if I didn't? I never thought you were serious about the divorce. At first, I was angry, but now I just think I was too slow to react."Joey was genuinely angry back then, but he had thought she was playing hard to get.The two of them sat close and watched the movie together.Selena hadn't returned yet, so Joey guessed that she wouldn't be coming back."Selena probably won't return. Hanson is cunning by taking her away with just a movie," Joey said.Zachary turned off the projector and was still savoring the moment as Joey left his arms."They're in love. Otherwise, Selena wouldn't go with him so easily," Zachary remarked.Selena must really like Hanson. Otherwise, she wouldn't
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 573 Important Role
Zachary squeezed her hand tightly. "You're just like an exquisite and beautiful flower."Joey couldn't help but laugh. She pulled her hand back with a little force. "Even though we just had a heartfelt conversation, I haven't thought about being your girlfriend.""I get it. You're Chloe, and countless people are lining up to pursue you," Zachary said in a voice tinged with jealousy.If she wasn't so focused on her work, she probably would have found a new boyfriend by now. For example, Kenneth was an excellent person. If Joey had accepted him back then, Zachary thought he wouldn't stand a chance now.When they got back to Emmen, Joey freshened up and got back to work.Zachary couldn't help but say, "Can't you take a break?""I've gotten used to this over the past year. When I can't sleep at night, I'll work. I find it hard to relax now," Joey said while reading a document intently.Without her dedication and hard work, Emmen wouldn't have grown so quickly.Zachary beckoned her
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 572 Cannot Let Go
Zachary felt a heavy weight on his chest as he looked at Joey.She continued, "Even if I accept you again, and we try to rebuild a family, I know things can never go back to the way they were. I gave you my best years, and I don't feel like I owe you anything."During those three years, you ignored my true feelings and neglected me. Do you think it's possible to go back to the past now?"Zachary said, "I'm truly sorry.""I want to fully accept you, but I can't. You all think that the many hurts inflicted on me are something I can just get over, let go of, and move forward from. But I can't."I realize now that people are complicated and hold grudges. I constantly revisit every wrong done to me. If I didn't care, it would mean I don't care about any of you at all."Joey rarely opened up to Zachary like this, but she felt it necessary to make this clear.Zachary watched her silently and felt as though it was his first time knowing what she actually thought."It's like how I don't
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 571 Still Distrustful
Selena readily agreed, "Alright. It's not fair for you to handle everything alone."Her relationship with Hanson was intense and passionate at the beginning, but now that the initial fire had burned out, Selena felt less attached to Hanson. But after dinner, she was still dragged by Hanson to watch a new movie.Joey was exhausted from work and didn't want to move, so she sat at the dining table with Zachary to enjoy the peace."Shall we head back soon?" Zachary asked after a long while.Joey hummed, exhausted. "Let's sit a bit longer.""If you don't want to walk, I can carry you," Zachary said with a smile.Joey snorted. "Do you want Grandma to scold me? Have you even recovered?""Probably not. These wounds don't heal so easily," Zachary admitted honestly. He wanted to please Joey but had forgotten that his health was no longer as robust as before."Let's sit for another half an hour," Joey said as she leaned back in her chair and replied to messages on her phone."You're work
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 570 Marriage Woes
Selena felt that what Joey said made sense and immediately nodded in agreement. "Then I won't consider marriage."Zachary glanced at them and thought that Selena was a bad influence on Joey. Even if they were married, couldn't they still have fun? What was the difference?Around noon, Hanson and Tessa arrived at Emmen together.As soon as Tessa saw Henry, she ran to him and grabbed his arm. "I got out of class early to see you. You're not mad, are you?"Henry was taken aback, but seeing Tessa clinging to him so sweetly filled his heart with joy."Not at all. Why didn't you tell me? I could have picked you up," Henry said.Tessa held his hand. "Why do you have to pick me up? I know where you work, so I can come to find you."Henry nodded dumbly."Tessa, have you eaten?" Monica stepped forward with a gentle smile."No, but my parents want to invite him to dinner tonight. I've already arranged it with them," Tessa said with a smile.Joey thought this wasn't just a regular dinner
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 569 Enjoying Life
Henry had a smile on his face, looking quite pleased with himself. "Of course, she fell in love with me at first sight."Selena laughed. "Impressive! But your cosplay style probably appeals to most young girls, right?"Henry may have only one eye, but he was still very handsome. He was like a cosplayer you'd see on the street.He simply smiled and picked up his phone to check in with Tessa.After chatting, Henry grinned like a fool. "She asked me out to lunch. She said she doesn't have classes this afternoon and wants to take me to her place."Joey felt a bit envious. "You're incredibly lucky. You need to cherish this."Henry nodded as Monica looked at Henry with a smile."What is your girlfriend studying in grad school?" Selena asked curiously."Something related to Eldelish language studies I think," Henry replied, unsure.Joey nodded. "That sounds good."After finishing his meal, Henry sat nearby, playing on his phone.Selena couldn't help but tell Joey, "Is he just going
