Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 255 Reminder
Zachary's room was directly opposite Joey's. As soon as he closed the door behind him, the commotion outside became more discernible."Room 6688 is over there.""Don't let her escape!"The mob cussed out threats after threats.Joey was aware of how crazy fans could be nowadays. Some ran fan clubs and enjoyed personal relationships with their idols, insomuch that they even slept with the celebrities.The distance between fans and superstars had never been closer."I did some digging and found out the whole truth. Are you going to clarify yourself or is Kenneth going to do it?" Zachary asked in a hushed voice as he ushered her to the couch."I don't think he'll say anything today. But Emmen needs to release a statement soon," commented Joey calmly as she dogged after Zachary.When a scandal broke out, the earlier a statement was released, the better."Kenneth might not have the last word on this matter." Zachary sat on the couch. His dark, marble eyes revealed nothing about his
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 256 Never Left
Owing Samuel a favor had already made Joey feel bad enough. Imagine owing a favor to three different people—she would have a lot of repaying to do.However, there was no other alternative. If she showed up, it would only fuel the rumors.Joey moved aside, allowing Zachary to open the door and walk out.There was an uproar outside. The guards Melvin had brought with him not only snatched the paparazzi's cameras but also yelled at Kenneth's fans."What on earth is happening here?" Zachary's low, threatening voice appeared.Everyone froze. Silence filled the previously roaring corridor as everyone turned around to look at Zachary.His lanky frame and domineering air could not be ignored. His brows furrowed into tight knots as he scanned the mob.His eyes never lingered on anyone. Yet for those who were meeting Zachary for the first time, they could feel in their bones the coldness in Zachary's eyes. It feared them."Mr. Gray, I am terribly sorry about the commotion. These people s
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 257 She's Not Mad
Kent chimed in, "What kind of seafood? I'd like some, too."Joey then gave Melvin a smile. "Do you mind if I give Kent some of the seafood you gave me?""Of course not! It's my present for you. You can do whatever you want with it," said Melvin in a carefree tone.Zachary ended the phone call and said, "Mr. Fuller, lead the way."Joey went back to her room to check if she had everything with her. Then, she went to grab her luggage.However, Zachary was closer to the luggage. He took it upon himself to carry Joey's luggage and followed behind Melvin.Joey wanted to say something, before deciding to join the group in silence."Let's leave by the rear entrance. Mr. Yates is popular, so we might run into another crowd of paparazzi." Melvin led the group to a staff-only elevator in the hotel."Sure," agreed Joey.As soon as they entered the elevator, Joey let loose and gave Melvin a piece of her mind."Mr. Fuller, you shouldn't have snatched the phones from the fans just now. Neve
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 258 Too Naive
Joey couldn't have made her message any clearer.Joey opted for a rational, methodical approach when faced with the current debacle because compared to Kenneth, her career was more important. She wouldn't risk her work because she owed Kenneth.The realization filled Kenneth with angst and panic.Unbeknownst to Joey, Kenneth didn't fall in love with her the moment they met in Yarwood City.She had already become a permanent fixture in his mind when Kenneth heard her ringtone for the very first time at a friend's place.However, back then, Zachary kept his marriage to Joey hidden. Kenneth couldn't know where Joey lived—he only knew she went by Chloe."I'm sorry," said Kenneth in a dry, trembling voice."Don't be. I know you didn't do this on purpose," said Joey. She didn't want Kenneth to feel too bad."Thank you. I'll handle this and make sure that it won't affect you." Kenneth said hastily and hung up.Zachary peered at Joey. He had a rough idea of what was exchanged by liste
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 259 I trust Him
Inside the restroom, Joey said with a frown, "I know you're not sacrificing me, but we need to plan this out properly."They were all in the same industry. Making enemies wouldn't do anyone good."Why don't you negotiate with Kenneth's company again? Look, we have all the evidence. We have the full camera footage. Voiced, too."Kenneth's agency cannot throw you under the bus," said Selena seriously.Joey gave an affirmative mumble.After the call ended, Joey tried to call Selena again. However, Joey received the automated message that Selena was on another call.After several fruitless attempts, Joey gave up. She texted Selena and left the toilet.When Joey returned, Zachary posed a question. "Have you discussed with Ms. Sanders how you'll handle this?""Not yet," said Joey."You're too naive. Kenneth's agency is trying to waste your time as they find a way to exclude Kenneth from the narrative."They're telling you to discuss with them so that they can buy more time," explai
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 260 Compromise
Zachary shot him a cold gaze.With a tone devoid of any warmth, he asked, "Are you implying that I'm inferior to Kenneth?"Kent quickly moved away, saying, "I'm analyzing it from Joey's perspective.""It seems you think that I'm not upset enough," Zachary replied indifferently before quickening his pace."Hey, wait for me!" Kent hurriedly caught up.Once on the plane, Joey took a seat and put on sunglasses and earphones, planning to sleep. Regarding how Kenneth would handle things and what his company would do, she had no way of knowing at the moment. But she was willing to spare Kenneth's company from embarrassment. It depended on whether Kenneth would disappoint her or not.Joey had a good sleep during the two-hour journey.When the plane landed, she was awakened by a flight attendant.Chuckling, Kent teased her, saying, "Everyone is on edge, yet you are sleeping so soundly.""Are you talking about me and Mr. Yates?" Joey rubbed her eyes, yawning."Who else would I be t
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 261 An Open Challenge
Just as she was contentedly admiring the excellent quality pearls, her phone beeped.Joey put away the pearls and checked the message. It was a link to Twitter sent by Selena.Upon clicking the link, she saw a post written by Kenneth. She immediately collected her thoughts, and a serious expression appeared on her face.While she hadn't seen the previous Twitter post from Kenneth's company, she could tell that Kenneth's personal Twitter post was sincere."Before explaining everything, I would like to apologize to Ms. Chloe. I feel really guilty for causing her so much trouble."I first met Ms. Chloe before Yarwood City, where I Tweeted the post "Where the River Ends," which was Ms. Chloe's ringtone."As everyone may know, Ms. Chloe was very secretive before her true identity was revealed. After I met her, I didn't even hear any news about her for three years …"Kenneth's post was written sincerely. He recounted his memories from the first time he met Joey to the constant attenti
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 262 A Storm Is Brewing
Joey leaned back on the couch, staring at Selena. At the moment, Selena held the peacock green pearls, examining them from left to right with great delight.Joey started discussing with Selena."I plan to design a gown using those one thousand peacock green pearls and price the gown at 888 thousand dollars.""This would be the second most expensive dress, right after Yvette's. But the price of pearls of this color is indeed expensive, and we haven't factored in your design's cost yet."Sketch it first, and then we can figure it out together." Selena walked over to her, her face filled with anticipation."I initially just wanted to buy some ordinary pearls and design a gown. But unexpectedly, this trip to Minville gave me such a surprise."Joey's lips curled into a smile, clearly very satisfied with this journey to Minville."Ah, these pearls are so beautiful." Selena couldn't help but touch the peacock green pearls Joey gave her."Take your time to admire it. I'll head back first

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
