All Chapters of Obsession of the Ex-husband: Chapter 381 - Chapter 390

The really heartbreaking thing was how Paul dealt with Gwen—he basically just kicked her out of the set."Either you start recording right now or just get lost. Take your bunch of students with you as you scram."Whatever needs compensating, you better pay up. And I mean each and every one of you!" Paul said with a lot of arrogance.Joey initially planned to leave, but Paul's words left them with no choice.Kenneth was pissed. Joey had to grab and hold him back.Maurine and Gwen weren't exactly well-off. They were basically surviving on their talents.Not getting anything from the show and having to shell out hundreds of thousands of dollars was just too much for them."Look, I'm in control here! Do you even know how massive Show TV's audience is? The last one standing doesn't just rake in cash overnight but will also score hundreds of thousands of fans."You'll instantly become an influencer. Just a casual chat with your fans will pull in thousands of dollars each month."So,

Joey returned to the hotel and took a look at Gwen's design pieces. Her color choices were impressive, but her creativity was a bit lacking.Putting down Gwen's files, Joey reached out to Cyrus."Mind helping me out with something? I need you to look into someone."As a local in Imperia, Joey thought Cyrus should be able to check Gwen and Maurine's backgrounds for her."Sure. Who is it, and what exactly do you want me to find?""There are two students I'm working with—Maurine and Gwen. They're thinking of working at Emmen after graduation. I need you to check their backgrounds thoroughly."Joey was keen on mentoring them. So, it was crucial their backgrounds were clean to avoid any issues, especially after the previous design theft incident.Additionally, she aimed to provide them with an opportunity, which was also a part of her plan against Paul."No problem."After Cyrus replied, Joey couldn't resist throwing in another question."Since you've managed to get so much footag

During the meal, Joey noticed that Eleanor had been staring at her, the intensity of which made her squirm in her seat."Did you design the dress yourself?" asked Eleanor elegantly when the dinner concluded."Yes, I did." Joey nodded.Her dress was sewn with smooth, silky fabric. Its plain but classy color, paired with its delicate embroidery, bestowed upon itself a regal air.Eleanor flashed her a rueful look. "I should have convinced you to sell me your dress. I adore its design."Not sure if Eleanor was being nice, Joey smiled and answered, "Thank you.""Grandma, let me walk you to the car," offered Kenneth."Sure," replied Eleanor affectionately.She knew that Kenneth did this because he didn't want her to misspeak and offend Joey. That said, his gesture also made Eleanor think that he would undoubtedly be an indulgent husband in the future.After Kenneth and Eleanor left, Joey let out a sigh of relief.Outside, Eleanor suddenly left a remark. "You like her a lot. So, why

Zachary shouted toward the door when he saw Joey's pained expression, "Did the doctor not give her any painkillers?"Henry pushed the door open and said politely, "I'll summon a doctor right away.""Just leave, Zachary!" Joey yelled.Then, she turned to Henry. "No need to bring a doctor here. Taking him away beats all the painkillers in the world."Henry was confused. Within a few seconds, Zachary managed to get on Joey's nerves. Didn't he say he was here to make up to Joey?After Zachary was kicked out of the ward, he watched sullenly as Kenneth entered the room. He only broke his gaze when the door closed.Henry took a furtive glance at his superior."Spill it," ordered Zachary."You shouldn't yell at Ms. Linton. Showing affection when she is vulnerable can foster a relationship," muttered Henry as his eyes darted to the side.Zachary agreed with what Henry said, but his emotions had gotten the better of him just now. It felt like if he didn't take a drastic approach, Joey a

Joey played the role of a spectator during the whole confrontation.Paul was seeing stars. The force of the slap had shut down whatever sensory responses were on his face.Zachary approached Paul and stepped on Paul's fingers as he lay on the ground.Before Paul could scream in pain, Zachary threatened, "Noisy people will get their tongues cut out. You know that, don't you?"Paul swallowed the scream and struggled.Henry rubbed the wrist he used to slap Paul and glared at Paul viciously, like a wolf that was ready to pounce on its prey."So, tell me the truth about the wire harness." Zachary turned to Zane.Zane stood with wobbly knees. His mouth was agape, but no words came out.Joey chimed in, "Zachary, I'll handle this myself.""I'm teaching Paul a lesson because he disrespected me just now. I asked about the wire harness out of curiosity. It wasn't for you." Zachary glimpsed at Joey.Henry sighed. Zachary was being prideful again.Joey didn't expect Zachary to answer tha
