Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 316 Different Interests
Zachary looked at her, a faint smile playing on his lips. Joey felt uncomfortable under his gaze, and her brows furrowed even more."Is there anything else?""If you don't tell me, I'll deal with her." Although Zachary's gaze seemed indifferent, he was still exuding hostility."Melvin is her cousin. If you do anything to her, I won't be able to work with Melvin anymore. I might as well just bring his pearls back to him and apologize directly," Joey replied unkindly.Zachary pondered for a moment. "Is she seeing Samuel now?"Joey had to admit that Zachary was quite sharp."I don't know, but what does it have to do with me?" Joey replied indifferently."You may think it doesn't matter, but she sees you as a threat. What does Samuel mean to you, exactly?" Zachary asked calmly.He never expected that one day, he would have such a calm conversation with Joey about another man who had feelings for her."Zachary, we're not close enough for me to discuss these matters, right?" Joey

After some perfunctory exchanges between Samuel and Joey, they hung up the phone, each engrossed in their own thoughts.Joey put down her phone and stared at the computer screen for a while before gradually snapping back to reality.However, before she could catch her breath, she received a message on her phone.Linda: "Don't contact Sam, bitch!"Joey scoffed at the message and deleted it. But soon after, Linda sent another message.Linda: "Do you think having Zachary supporting you means anything? If you provoke me and delay Sam's matters, Sam will cut ties with you."Joey looked at the message for a while before typing a reply.Joey: "Are you so lacking in confidence that you're targeting me with your attacks instead?"Linda's appearance and demeanor didn't match the tone she used in her messages. Joey found the contrast to be quite large.Linda: "Demeaning me to make yourself seem better? Girl, don't fight me."Don't pretend to be magnanimous. No matter how magnanimous you
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 318 Annoyed
Linda paused for a moment and said, "You're Joey's grandmother, aren't you? You have no idea that she's—""Dear, when you talk, you've got to have some evidence to back it up. Using that kind of language, is that how you were brought up?" Monica interrupted."Well, it's still better than raising a granddaughter who's a manipulative flirt, like yours," Linda retorted before hanging up abruptly.Monica, feeling agitated, was about to make a call back when she heard Joey's voice coming from behind."Pass me the phone, Grandma. Don't worry. It's just a misunderstanding.""Is someone from your rival company giving you a hard time?" Monica turned around and handed the phone to Joey.Joey shook her head. "I have no idea."After a rather unpleasant dinner, Joey returned to her room and decided to call Linda. Linda picked up the call right away."What's this, stepping in to scold me on behalf of your grandma?" Linda's voice was tinged with arrogance."I'll bring the messages you sent s
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 319 Look Out for Her
"Ms. Linton, did you come all the way here expecting us to discipline her?" Laura asked Joey with a stern look."My grandma happened to answer the phone today. She's not in the best of health and got really upset. That's why I'm here."I don't know how to talk to Ms. Linda, and I have no idea why she's doing this. I just came to you two for some advice," Joey calmly explained, looking at Jeremy.Just as Jeremy was about to respond, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, and upon seeing that the caller was from Eldeville, his brows furrowed."Ms. Linton, hold on for a second. I've got an urgent call," he said, swiftly taking his phone and stepping away.While Jeremy was away, Melvin commented, "Why would Linda do something like this?"If there's a misunderstanding, couldn't she have just talked it out instead of sending all those messages to humiliate Ms. Linton? That's just too much!"Laura gave him a cold look. "This situation isn't confirmed yet, and you're already pointing
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 320 Play Dumb
Joey wasn't really expecting any immediate outcomes that day.After all, she understood the importance of maintaining a relationship and keeping the possibility of future encounters open by avoiding drastic actions or decisions.She raised the teacup, inhaling the fragrant notes of the Golden Crescent Tea. Minville's teacups were petite but exquisitely crafted."Golden Crescent Tea, it's perfect for a summer day," Joey remarked to Jeremy after a sip.Jeremy was utterly surprised that she could accurately identify the tea.Golden Crescent Tea wasn't widely recognized, but it had a distinct reputation in Minville. Beyond Minville, it remained relatively unfamiliar to most."Ms. Linton, do you know a lot about tea?" Jeremy asked with a smile.She wasn't exactly a tea expert, but her familiarity with this tea was thanks to Hanson's coffee shop. He was quite knowledgeable about tea and had shared a good deal about tea culture with her."I have a friend who really enjoys tea and has
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 321 Denial
Reflecting on it, it seemed unlikely that anyone else would engage in such behavior behind her back."Well, not exactly. Henry was the one who informed me. He still somewhat sees you as his boss."Zachary shifted the blame directly onto the innocent Henry.Joey bit her lip as she typed her reply."Henry's been really good to me. I'll get him a gift later. Help me thank Henry."Reading the message, Zachary felt a lump in his chest.After receiving no further replies, Joey set her phone aside. The weight that had been hanging over her finally dissipated.…The next day, Joey was at the hotel, waiting for Jeremy's call. In the meantime, she decided to chat with Melvin about the upcoming fashion preview for Fugo TV."Do you think dropping a teaser in September is enough? Do we really have to hold off until December?" Melvin was still keen on an earlier broadcast."Yeah, but don't worry. I've got a design ready to showcase. It'll go hand in hand with the TV program, and there's no
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 322 A Mourning Widow
With Linda persistently accusing Joey of being a manipulative flirt, Melvin was convinced that those messages were undoubtedly from her."Zachary's involved in this too. Making her suffer isn't going to happen. If you keep stirring this up, even your parents will get dragged into it!" Melvin blurted out, clearly frustrated."She acts like she's untouchable? I'm just telling it like it is."And besides, she and Sam attended a classmate reunion dinner, and Sam got labeled a lapdog by his classmates. Why should I tolerate that?" Linda glared at Melvin, her face full of hostility."That's on Samuel. Why go after her?" Melvin shot back."Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's all Sam's fault. She's the pure and innocent sanctimonious hypocrite, isn't she?" Linda said, then looked away."Apologize for this, admit that it was you, and promise not to do it again. That's all you need to do."Melvin didn't want to waste time arguing with her. Continuing the debate seemed pointless."I didn't do anythin
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 323 Do You Get Me
"Mr. Zimmerman, I've never really understood why all this had to happen. Honestly, I can't stand these kinds of pointless troubles. Dealing with such drama just feels like a huge waste of my time."Joey's tone lost its politeness. Even though she was smiling, one could sense deep frustration and resignation in her words.Upon hearing her words, Samuel felt an overwhelming sense of guilt."Joey…""Mr. Zimmerman, I know I shouldn't be complaining to you. But your fiancée has really impacted me. How do you think I should handle this situation?" Joey continued."Joey, I'll handle this. Do you trust me?" Samuel's voice still had a touch of optimism."Mr. Zimmerman, your love life has dragged me into this, making me the target of undeserved humiliation."Whether or not I believe you, sorting out this mess is your responsibility. Do I really need to put my trust in you for this to be resolved?" Joey asked with a wry smile."I'm sorry…""Does saying sorry even make a difference? If I

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
