Chapter 76
Samuel’s house was a rental house designed with one staircase for two families. The two bedrooms
were separated by only
one wall.
Samuel leaned against the wall and looked nk.
No matter how hard he tried, it was just a burden in Josie’s eyes.
Josie trapped herself in a wall and was wearing thick armor.
It seemed that he could not touch her heart at all even if he tried hard enough.
Samuel smiled bitterly and closed his eyes slowly.
There was only one wall between them, but they did not seem to be in the same world.
“Nina, why are you here?”
It was already nine o’clock in the evening when suddenly Samuel heard knocks on the door.
Nina carried the supper and brought some wine. “Why? Are you in a bad mood? I heard that mom
taught you to make dumplings. Does Jo like it?”
“Yeah. She went back to sleep already.” Samuel subconsciously lowered his voice, worried about
waking Josie up next door.
You’re so exaggerated. You guys are neighbors.” Nina was speechless. “Why don’t you look happy?
You haven’t got her yet?”
“What’s the hurry? I don’t want to force her. Besides, she just got divorced. Give her some time to
adapt.” Samuel was nonchnt.
Anyway, he would never give up on her!
Nina sighed and put the supper on the table. “Drink with me. I’m in a bad mood.”
“What’s the matter? Gabriel is noting home again?” Samuel frowned with a fit of solid anger in his
eyes.
“S c u m s are bing the norm.” Nina sighed. “If it weren’t for the family and thepany, I would
have divorced him long. ago.”
“Is it good to carry on like this?” Samuel averted his gaze from her.
“You won’t understand.” Nina shook her head meaningfully. “Let’s stop talking about me. Let’s talk
about you first. None of us in the family has a problem.”
She added, “It’s not good to be a s h someone, the feeling is a factor. She hasn’t fallen in love with you
for ten years. Would there be a chance now?”
Samuel remained silent.
“I’m not dampening your spirit. I’m just worried that you…” Nina felt sorry for her brother. “Ten years
ago, Jo was kidnapped. You almost died in that warehouse for her, but you didn’t allow us to mention
that. I think it’s because Henry rushed in that she remembers his kindness.”
Samuel lowered his eyes and poured wine for Nina. “Don’t talk about the past. Using kindness to tie
her up is not considered love anyway.”

“You’ve been pursuing true love since you were a child. How many people have true love these days?
Except for those in movies, where else can we find?”
Nina’s eyes turned red.
In short, there were no promises or great memories, but a mess in marriage..
Men were all the same.
Three years ago, you went abroad. It was your fault for what happened, but you were also a victim.
You’ve been wandering abroad for the past three years and tortured yourself all those years. And now,
you still can’t get over her?”
Samuel looked away as if he did not want to bring up what had happened three years ago.
“Well, don’t me me for being too talkative. You are the youngest in our family. All three elder sisters
dote on you. No one can bear to see you torturing yourself like this. Enough is enough.”
Everyone in the family supported Samuel’s pursuit of Josie. To put it bluntly, it was because they felt
distressed about
Samuel.
Nina was the eldest and most contemtive among her siblings.
If it was destined to bring no good ending, it was better to stop
g no good ending, it was better to stop the pursuit and the loss before it was toote.
Otherwise, it would be toote if Samuel got himself and Josie hurt.
“Recently, I’ve been feeling a little anxious.” He was pretty anxious after Josie had been set up over
time.
“I should give her some time. There’s no need to be in a hurry. It’s good enough that I can stay with her
like this.” Samuel took a sip of wine. The bitter taste spread in his mouth.
Nina did not say anything more. She sighed and thought, “My brother is such a fool in love.”
The following day, Josie got up very early. She treated the job in Clusia Media Group with great
importance.
Josie dressed herself up under the sunlight. It was her first time being so keen about what to wear. She
kept changing her
outfits.
In the end, Josie put on a pair of casual trousers and high heels before tying her hair into a low
ponytail. Then, she adjusted her shirt and put on a woolen windbreaker.
Josie
was a
a perfect human mannequin. Everything she wore looked good on her.
Thinking that her face looked slightly pale, Josie put on darker lipstick. Her skin looked so fair in the
sunlight.
She felt satisfied with her look. She then nced and smiled in the mirror before walking out of the
door.
“I can do it! It’s my first day of work, she cheered herself up inwardly.
C r a c k!
Josie and Samuel opened the door almost at the same time.
Samuel was in his casual outfit and was carrying garbage in his hand.
Nina got him drunkst night.
Samuel did not look well. He drank too muchst night and slept on the floor all night. As such, he
caught a cold that rarely

happened to him.
“Good morning Josie was a little nervous as she smiled at Samuel.
“Did you have breakfast?” Samuel regretted drinking too muchst night and did not get up to prepare
breakfast for Josie.
“Yeah, I’ve already had my breakfast.” Josie looked at Samuel’s face carefully. “Are you sick?”
“No… Samuel looked away and felt a little dizzy.
“Give me the garbage. I’ll throw it for you.” Josie went downstairs after taking Samuel’s garbage over.
“No need. It’s heavy” Samuel followed Josie and took it back..
It was full of wine bottles.
Josie figured it out from the sound. She knew that Samuel drank alone again after she went homest
night.
“Last night, Nina came. She was in conflict with Gabriel, so I drank with her.”
Samuel did not know why he wanted to exin, even when Josie did not care about him.
He felt that he was making a fool of himself. He was not needed at all,
“You have a fever.” When she took over the garbage bag just now, she felt that the temperature of
Samuel’s body was very high.
“It’s okay. I might just catch a cold.” Samuel threw the garbage away and motioned Josie to go to work
quickly. “Get going. It’s your first day of work. All the best.”
Josie nodded. She checked the time as she walked out of the residential area. Then, she hurried to the
pharmacy nearby.
“Samuel” As soon as Josie left, Henry got out of the car. Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
“Mr. Gibson? What brought you here in such an early morning? Samuel asked coldly with his hands in
his pockets, looking unruly.
I think we need to talk. Henry frowned and thought, “Josie is mine. I won’t give up.”
Samuel and Henry had been good friends for so many years.
“If it’s about Josie, it’s unnecessary. I won’t give in. Samuel responded directly,
“Samuel, I don’t want to threaten you. Josie won’t like you. If I tell her what happened three years ago,
do you think she will not disgust you?”
“Henry!” Samuel’s face was already pale. His breathing trembled after being triggered by Henry.
“Do you want to threaten me with that for the rest of my
life? I’ve listened to you. What else do you want to do after asking me to leave her for three years?
Look at how you treated her in the past three years! What did you promise me?”
Samuel tugged Henry’s cor. He roared with widened eyes, “You s c u m, you promised me that you
wouldn’t touch her. You promised me that all you want is the Gibson family’s assets and you would
return Josie to me in a perfect state! That how you return her to me!”
