Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 563 Flattery
At the hospital, Joey and Zachary changed into protective clothing before entering the intensive care unit.Christopher looked very weak. He stared at Joey for a moment before closing his eyes in contentment."Grandpa is happy just to see you," Hanson said to Joey, who nodded.They left after staying in the ICU for a while."Do you want to visit Mom?" Hanson asked again in eagerness.Joey's expression was indifferent. "Sure. Let's go."Knowing that she still treated her parents like strangers, Hanson's face was full of disappointment.In Emily's room, Vaughn quickly handed Joey a packet of snacks and sat beside her. He then talked about Emily's condition."She's fine. She just needs to stay in the hospital for another two weeks."Joey looked at Emily, who was gazing at her with hopeful eyes."Have you had breakfast?" Joey asked."I tried eating, but I just couldn't eat much," Emily replied pitifully, trying to elicit sympathy from Joey."Then you should consult the doctor,"
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 564 Heartless
Brook's actions had already harmed Joey. Yet, Sophia was still trying to let things slide. To her, as long as Joey hadn't died, everything could be forgiven and forgotten.Hanson remained silent for a long time before speaking, "Once we clear up this matter with Uncle Brook, we should cut off contact and let Grandma stay with him.""Do you think Brook can come out of this unscathed once the truth is revealed?" Vaughn's face was cold.He feared that whatever Brook had been doing behind their backs might be illegal and could bring down their whole family.…As soon as Joey and Zachary got home from the hospital, Zachary took the opportunity while Monica was out to ask, "Have you talked to Grandma about how you're going to handle things with the Fulham family?""What do you want me to say?" Joey's tone immediately turned bitter. "I don't care what deals you've made with them, but don't try to be their spokesperson, or you'll be kicked out, too."Zachary sat calmly on the couch and
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 565 Annoyance
Zachary had to admit that Joey's temper was very bad now. The gentleness she used to show really was just an act.He sent a message to Joey after getting into the car. "What did I even do? Why are you mad at me?"The message was sent, but there was no reply.He sent another message. "Joey, can we just get along?"There was still no reply.He put down his phone, took a deep breath, and sent a message to Shane. "Find out where Joey is."…Joey and Harrison were sitting in a private room. She took a sip of her drink and felt melancholic."Have you run out of friends to hang out with? Is that why you asked me to join you for drinks and dinner?" Harrison was genuinely a bit flattered.Given Joey's current status, as the CEO of a subsidiary company of Pixie, he didn't feel worthy of her company."Yeah, I don't have many friends," Joey said.She had no time to make friends due to her busy schedule. The person she knew best was Harrison.Seeing her in such a downcast mood, Harrison
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 566 Realizing Your Mistake
Joey withdrew her gaze without saying a word, but her hand instinctively struggled against Zachary's hold.Zachary held on a bit tighter and said gently, "Joey, I won't say such things again.""But you already did," Joey replied coolly.Zachary always realized his mistakes too late.Perhaps due to the alcohol, Joey didn't want to hold back.She looked at Zachary and said, "Whether it's our marriage, your decision to save Selena, or your stance with the Fulham family now, you always look at things from your own perspective."My thoughts never matter to you. It's only after making mistakes that you realize you're wrong, but what good is an apology now?"Zachary said softly, "I'm sorry.""I know you think that if you manage to persuade me to go back, our marriage can continue. But have you ever considered my feelings? I thought you would stand by my side, but I was too naive." Joey laughed bitterly."I didn't think about it that way. I just wanted you to have loving parents and p
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 567 Waning Enthusiasm
Joey remained silent. She felt sad but understood that Monica's age made certain things inevitable."It's getting late. You should wash up and rest. I'll be returning to Eldeville in a couple of days," Monica said as she stood up.She had said everything she needed to say to Joey. It was all up to her now."Why are you going back to Eldeville again?" Joey asked while feeling confused. Previously, it was to take care of Zachary, but now he was in Imperia as well."I'm used to the weather in Eldeville, and before, you were just starting your business and needed support. Now that you're doing well, it's time for me to go home," Monica replied as she adjusted her clothes.No matter how good Imperia was, it would never be her hometown."Do you have any other plans once you return to Eldeville?" Joey asked while holding Monica's hand."I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it after Henry's marriage stabilizes," Monica said.When she was in Eldeville taking care of Zachary, she felt
Obsession of the Ex-husband Chapter 568 Every Step Was Calculated
Joey and Selena sat together and sighed."I don't even know what the point of marriage is," Joey said to Selena. "I used to think that if you liked someone, you should marry them. But now… I don't even know if I love anyone."She had achieved her professional goals, but what about her personal life? The sudden reappearance of her family made her life feel chaotic.Selena leaned on her shoulder and stared at the ceiling. "People could get married so easily back then, and then they had us. But now, we struggle so much with emotions. Times have changed, and so have our expectations of marriage.""Once basic needs are met, it's natural to have other expectations. Otherwise, what's the point of living?" Joey said with a smile.She believed people worked hard to earn money so they could live better. Otherwise, life would just pass by in a blur, which seemed like a waste.Selena sighed heavily. "Ugh, it's so frustrating!""Just talk to him," Joey suggested. "If you don't want to get ma
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
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

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
