Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 233 Weak Spot
Joey clutched her phone tightly, a frosty expression etched on her face."Zachary, if anything happens to Grandma, I'll make sure Julian and Julia pay for it!" With those words, she ended the call.Despite holding indisputable evidence capable of shattering Julia's reputation, Joey couldn't believe Julian would actually kidnap Monica.As for trusting Zachary … Well, she'd rather believe pigs could fly.Joey took a deep breath to calm her emotions and dialed Selena's number."Jojo, why are you calling me now? Did Grandma mention missing me? Let her know I'll drop by as soon as I get a chance …"As the call went through, Selena's enthusiastic voice immediately flooded Joey's ears. However, hearing her voice at this moment made Joey's nose tingle, and she couldn't hold back her emotions.Suppressing the tremor in her voice, she urged, "Selena, drop the lawsuit right away. Spread the word. Make sure Julia finds out.""But why?"Selena's earlier excitement turned into anger. "After
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 234 The Last Straw
In the end, Joey was practically shouting, her bloodshot eyes brimming with hatred.Zachary's heart felt like it was stabbed, and he released his grip. She completely ignored him, turned around, and walked away.Watching her go, he suddenly understood. This time, she was truly done with him. Or maybe, deep down, he never had her from the start."Mr. Zachary."Shane witnessed his boss' ex-wife storming out with an intense and hostile energy.Unsure of what to do at the moment, Shane could only call out to Zachary, who was standing by the door lost in thought.Zachary pursed his lips. "Go after her. Make sure she's okay."Shane nodded and was about to chase after Joey when Zachary called out again, "Take the car. She might need it.""But what about you …"Zachary stayed silent. Shane instantly understood—his boss was angry.Without a second thought, he turned and leaped into the car, speeding off to catch up with Joey.The car trailed behind Joey, and Shane spoke through the d
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 235 Going Separate Ways
It must have been Zachary's doing.Joey's eyes narrowed, fists clenched. "Zachary destroyed the surveillance?""No."Hanson's response brought her a moment of relief. But his next sentence raised her anxiety again."However, there's intentional interference in the surveillance cameras from some of the streets containing the key footage."Joey was amazed Zachary would go to such lengths for Julia.Grimacing, Joey spoke with determination, "Mr. Fulham, I hope to have your help. Of course, I won't let you help for nothing."From now on, I'll personally handle Mrs. Fulham Senior's annual gala attire designs."She didn't want to owe the Fulham family any favors.Hanson pressed his lips. There was a fleeting hint of resignation in his gaze. "We just want to help you.""I can't thank you enough. In the future, if you need anything, I'll go all out to return the favor," Joey pledged.Hanson didn't dwell on the topic any longer and shifted to the main agenda."I've already arranged
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 236 I Know It Was You Who Did It
His cold voice sent shivers down Julian's spine, causing his eyes to involuntarily twitch a few times.Those who crossed the line when it came to Zachary's never had a good ending. However, it was all too late."Zachary, I traded my entire life for your success. I have no issues with it if you don't repay me."But I only have one sister. All I'm asking is for her well-being."Julian started emotionally manipulating Zachary. Zachary observed him with a cold gaze, discerning the shrewdness and guardedness hidden behind Julian's sorrowful expression.He sneered in his heart. With an indifferent expression, he said, "I can send you abroad and still guarantee Julia's success. As long as she doesn't covet what doesn't belong to her.""Don't you plan to marry her?"Zachary remained silent as he steadily advanced toward Julian. Julian took a step back before standing firm again. "I've done so much for you. How can you do this to me?"Also, why would I do such a thing if it weren't
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 237 Let's Just Leave It Like This
When Joey arrived at the hospital and saw Monica sleeping soundly on the bed, her eyes turned red, and tears uncontrollably streamed down.Sensing Joey's distress, Hanson compassionately patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry. She's just asleep. The doctor has examined her, and she has sustained no injuries." Joey grasped Monica's hand tightly, fearing she might disappear again. "It's my fault."If only she had been more decisive, divorced Zachary earlier, and stayed away from the Gray family, this wouldn't have happened.Hanson pulled out a tissue to wipe away the tears on her face and gently reassured her, "It's okay. Don't cry."Your grandma won't blame you. The one at fault is the person who kidnapped her, not you."With teary eyes, Joey turned to him and sincerely said, "Mr. Fulham, thank you.""Well, I can't take credit for this. When our people received the information, I went with the police."Upon reaching the house where your grandma was held, only she and Julia
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 238 Attraction to Handsome Men
He would only treasure the stuff Joey bought and was reluctant to waste it, even if this fruit basket's purpose wasn't that good.From Shane's perspective, he was intentionally making things difficult for himself.…In the afternoon, Monica woke up.After the doctor conducted another examination on her, he told Joey, "Her diabetes is quite severe."She hasn't been taking insulin as scheduled, and it's now impacting her eyes. She really doesn't follow instructions, huh?" Joey glared at Monica with a slightly reproachful expression. Monica felt a bit embarrassed and averted her eyes."I'm getting old, and my memory isn't good. Forgetting about it is quite normal."Joey's expression turned serious."I've already bought a house. No matter what happens, you're not allowed to move to the countryside this time. You absolutely can't refuse me again, or I'll truly be upset."After this incident, Monica didn't oppose her anymore. Her eyes landed on Joey's face. Her expression showed
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 239 Being On Fire
With Monica present, Zachary refrained from saying more, especially with Kenneth in the picture.He watched as they entered the elevator, with the doors closing behind them. Joey continued chatting with Kenneth about the TV series with a cheerful expression.To Zachary, it felt like he was just a bystander.After the elevator doors closed completely, Zachary slammed his fist against the wall.He wondered if Joey was going to accept Kenneth and agree to the marriage between her and the Fulham family. He couldn't fathom how much Joey must hate him to willingly be treated as a tool! Inside the elevator, Monica unconsciously let out a sigh. Even Joey discreetly exhaled as she feared Monica might notice and worry about her.Seeing Monica's anxious expression, Joey forced a casual smile and asked, "What's wrong?"Monica shook her head gently and replied, "Nothing." She understood that relationships couldn't be easily broken with a simple decision. While she understood the situation
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 240 The Proper Etiquette
Following Samuel's call, Joey's WhatsApp was flooded with congratulatory messages. Whether it was directors or actors she had collaborated with before, they all extended their congratulations.At the same time, she received a call from Selena.Right after she pressed the answer button and intended to calm Selena down, she heard the latter shouting, "We're on fire! We're blazing!"Yvette is truly amazing! You're incredibly talented, too!""Calm down first ..." Joey moved her phone a bit further away. She felt like her eardrums were about to burst."We're gaining global attention. It's the Cutvine Film Festival, you know? Yvette walked the Cutvine!"She's getting massive coverage from media worldwide on it. Foreign media even hailed her as the Aphrodite of Clusia." Selena continued to speak loudly without care. "Aphrodite?" Joey felt that foreigners were quite direct in naming.Selena repeatedly agreed, "Yes, they say she's the pure, jet-black Aphrodite. Who says Cutvine must be

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
