Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Thomas knew that there would be endless troubles if Hazel left like that.

He reached out to stop Hazel. Thomas wanted to talk to Hazel.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, Ashley went mad. Ashley picked up the glass ornaments from the side and smashed them hard on Hazel's head.

Hazel fell to the ground. Now, a new injury was added to the previous one. Her blood was all over the ground.

Ashley was panting. She was so scared that her face turned pale. Looking at her hands helplessly, she cried, saying, "Thomas, I killed someone, Thomas. Thomas..." Thomas was stunned as well. He hurried forward to pull Ashley into his arms. "Don't be scared. I'll help you... I'll handle it for you. Don't be scared. I'm here. Don't be scared..." He would take care of everything for Ashley.

Even if the police's investigation pointed to them, he would take the blame.

"Don't be afraid. I'm always here for you."

Thomas squatted on the ground, trying to act brave. He tried to test Hazel's pulse, and his face turned pale. "It's okay. Don't worry."

Ashley fell to the ground weakly and shivered with tears.

What now? What now? What should she do?

Thomas was much calmer than Ashley. He tried to cover Hazel's bleeding wound and carry Hazel away.

They could not leave her here.

"Ashley, if... the police find this place, don't say anything. Just say that you don't know and put everything on me, okay?" He had a criminal record. The police would definitely suspect him.

Ashley looked up at Thomas and cried even harder.

"No..."

Without Thomas, she could not sleep well.

She was unwilling to let Thomas take the blame.

However, she... No, she had been holding on for so long. She had worked hard for so long.

"Ashley, your goal is to be Mrs. Gibson. Look, Henry is in love with you already... Everything's on plan and getting better. He'll love you very much in the future... You can live well without me. I'm relieved," Thomas sobbed and wiped the tears from Ashley's face. "Be good." Ashley shook her head and tugged on Thomas' clothes tightly.

Thomas slowly broke free and got up to deal with Hazel.

After wrapping up the body, Thomas deliberately entered the elevator without avoiding the camera.

Finally, he carried her into the car, Hazel's fingers touching her lightly...

Meanwhile, back at Henry's house, Zachary received a call, and his expression darkened. "Henry, Silas fell into a coma, and now he's in Spike's hand. Spike won't let him live, and Sergio ran away."

Henry's face darkened instantly as well. Fortunately, Sergio escaped.

Sergio knew too much about what happened back then. Sergio was the most important witness, and thus he could not die.

"Spike's men are after Sergio. Hazel seems to have gone to find Ashley. Should we intervene?" Zachary discussed this with Henry.

"I'll ask someone to look for Sergio first. As for Hazel, don't bother about what Spike wants to do with her." Henry clenched his fingers slowly.

He knew that Spike would not kill Hazel. As for other things... He did not want to care about them.

Zachary nodded and felt sorry for Henry.

Although Henry was the inheritor of a rich family, he was no better than Zachary.

Zachary reckoned that Henry probably wanted his family to be destroyed.

At least, the latter would be innocent.

It was indeed the worst to have parents like Hazel and Spike.

It was Henry's sin to be born.

"I have to go back first. I'll contact you as soon as possible if something happens. You be careful during this period, too." Zachary patted Henry on the shoulder. Spike was a crazy man who would cross the line even with his family.

Aside from the slight father-son bond he had for Quinton, he had no feelings for anyone, as they were merely for his usage.

That kind of person was the most terrible one.

Meanwhile, Josie was watching the news at the Clusia Corporation and was suddenly attracted by the trending topics.

The body of an unknown man was found at Hastsoll River Bank.

Josie's heart tightened without her knowing.

She did not know why her eyelids were beating so hard as well.

"Jo, Hazel is missing. I wonder if she was taken away by Spike's men. You must... take care of yourself." Henry called Josie and spoke in a hoarse voice. "About that dead man at Hastsoll River, you... Do you know about it?" Josie asked subconsciously.

"Silas."

Josie covered her mouth in shock.

The man who was close to Hazel was once a confidant of Spike.

"He should've expected this from the moment he chose to follow Spike."

It was obvious that it was Spike's men who threw him into the river after taking him away from the hospital.

"It's horrible..." Josie's gaze was trembling, and her eyes were red. These people were crazy.

How could they be so horrible?

"Silas knows a lot of things about Spike. He must die." However, it was a pity that Henry did not get the evidence.

He did not know where Hazel would hide them.

"I've already contacted Samuel. He'll protect you during this period."

"Henry!" Henry was about to hang up the phone when Josie shouted in panic. Her voice was shaking.

She was scared.

Actually, she was very timid.

She had always been timid.

"Spike is crazy... Don't... mess with him anymore." Josie did not want Henry to bet his life on revenge.

It would make her guilty all her life.

"Don't worry. Spike is not powerful enough to hurt me," Henry smiled. He was very happy that Josie was still worried about him.

After hanging up the phone, Henry lay on the chair. He was having a severe headache.

Ashley had been calling Henry. He did not want to answer and was very annoyed.

Yet, Ashley's repeated calls triggered Henry.

Henry suppressed his anger as he answered the call.

"Henry, something happened to Ms. Locke..." Ashley's voice trembled.

"What happened?"

"Ms. Locke came to my house with two men last night. But one man was seriously injured, so they went to the hospital. Later, Ms. Locke escaped and was seriously injured. I wanted Thomas to take her to the hospital, but she was kidnapped on the way," Ashley explained as she cried.

Henry sat up straight. "Who kidnapped her?"

"I don't know..." Ashley kept crying.

Henry was very irritated.

"Could it be Spike's men?" he thought.

"By the way, Henry, Ms. Locke left a flash drive when she was at my house. She asked me to hand over the contents of the flash drive to the police if something happened to her. I dare not do it." en FindNovel

Henry narrowed his eyes and let out a laugh.

He barely used any effort for that. It seemed like... keeping Ashley, for now, was the right choice.

"Where are you? I'll come to you right away."

Meanwhile, Samuel saw the Hastsoll River news at Clusia Media Group as well. He was worried and rushed to the company as soon as possible.

"Are you going to look at me working

trying to relieve her panic. "It's like

some boss' inspection. I don't even know to type anymore."

Samuel stretched out his hand to pull Josie over, hugging her tightly. "I know you're scared..."

Josie was not afraid about something happening to her. She had to have recalled her parents' car accident from what happened to Silas.

It was also something arranged by Spike.

Spike was insane, no doubt.
