Chapter 255


    When Zachary got out of jail, Ashley also stopped her antics. She kept hiding at home and did not dare


    to see anyone.


    She did not dare to see Henry either.


    However, Henry went to find her directly


    “Ashley? Are you at home?” Henry knocked on the door.


    Ashley cried and wanted to open the door for Henry, but she did not dare to do so.


    She was afraid that one day Henry would know what h


    had happened to her.


    “Ashley, I know you are at home. Hazel called me just now and said that something had happened to


    you and she told me to see you, What happened?”


    Ashley’s heart tightened and she ran to the door quickly.


    Did Hazel ask him toe over?


    Was Hazel creating an opportunity for her?


    “Ashley, what’s wrong?” Henry asked softly as he looked at Ashley who had red eyes.


    “Henry!” Ashley rushed up p and hugged Henry, crying pathetically.


    “What’s wrong?” Henry resisted her touch, but


    it he still pretended to be gentle.


    “Nothing… Ashley shook her head in tears. “I just feel that since something so big has happened to


    me, it will definitely affect my career and future.”


    “Don’t worry. When Josie and I divorce, you will live with me. Then, your poprity wille back


    slowly.” Henry’s voice showed that he had no feelings, but he spoke softly.


    He was pretending to be gentle.


    Naturally, Ashley did not understand it and she hugged Henry happily. “Henry, you’re so nice.


    Fortunately, I have you. Otherwise, I don’t know what to do. Thomas is not by my side. I’m so scared.”


    “Don’t be afraid. I’ll find a way to deal with Thomas, but Ashley, you know… You should learn to get


    information that can be used against the people around you. Otherwise, they will be disobedient.”


    Henry deliberately reminded her


    A momentter, he continued saying, “Hazel is such a person. You must be careful. It’s not that I’m


    prejudiced against her. What she likes most is to find out someone’s dark secret and then take the


    opportunity to threaten them. Don’t get too close to her”


    Henry wanted to separate Hazel and Ashley.


    ald have


    Ashley’s face turned pale instantly. Hazel had too much control over her. If Hazel really threatened her


    in the future, she would


    no choice but to obey her orders!


    Ashley clenched her fingers in panic, and her heart was beating.


    “What should I do?” she wondered.


    “Ashley?” Henry called her name in a deep voice.


    “Henry…” Ashley came back to her senses and her face turned pale with fear. “L… I’m okay”


    “Take a good rest


    Don’t think about nonsense. I will find a way to help you get Thomas out. Henry smiled.


    “Henry, you’re so kind…” Ashley hugged Henry and sobbed.


    Zachary has his eye on me. I may not be able to take care of you. You must protect yourself. Don’t get


    into trouble again” Henry pretended to be gentle.


    “Henry, don’t worry. I won’t bother you.” Ashley nodded, but she was flustered.


    “If Hazel really threatens me, then…” she thought.


    “Hazel has been using our rtionship and asked me to help Silns. This woman prioritizes profit, and


    feelings are worthless to her.” Henry looked irritated.


    Ashley was


    even more uneasy. She did not know what Hazel would do with her secrets. What if Hazel threatened


    her?


    “Ss has recently been interested in the project in the west of the city and wants to use the project to


    cover up his dirty deal. If Hazeles to you, you have to ignore her. Now she knows that I care about


    you very much, and she will definitely hurt you”


    Ashley nodded with a pale face.


    ot want to stay for a moment longer.


    “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first. Take care of yourself.” Henry did not


    “Henry!” Ashley panicked.


    “What’s wrong?” Henry y turned ard


    around and looked at Ashley who wanted to say something but stopped.


    “No… Nothing.” Ashley’s eyes turned red and she slowly loosened her grip on Henry.


    She could not tell Henry the truth. She could not say it out loud. If Henry knew it, their rtionship


    would be doomed.


    Henry would never allow a woman with a stained reputation to be his wife.


    “Henry, can you stay

    ay with me for one night?” She was scared and was panicking. She just hoped that Henry could stay


    with her.


    Henry was silent and held back his disgust. “There are still many things in thepany that I have to


    deal with. Hazel’s people are staring at me very closely now, I can’t let her know that I’m here. I will


    bring you trouble if I stay with you.


    Ashley was a little disappointed, but she still let Henry leave.

    Henry went downstairs. Ashley sto


    stood by the window and looked at his back, feeling devastated


    She tried her best to get Henry, but the result was that she became very scared and on edge


    As soon as Henry left, Hazel called her.


    Ashley’s expression changed. Henry deliberately went importance to the project.

    “Ashley, I need your help, Hazel smiled and spoke straightforwardly


    “Please feel free to say it…


    “Has Henry been to your ce recently? I think he’s been very interested in you these days. He


    actually involved himself with Thomas’s matter personally,” Hazel said tentatively


    *Henry promised to help me.” Ashley was a little nervous.


    “Take advantage of his feelings for you now. Tell him that Ss has a project that needs his signature.”


    Hazel’s tone showed that her words were not a request, but an order


    Ashley’s heart tightened instantly. “Hazel, I can’t talk to Henry about work. He won’t listen to me.”


    Hazel’s voice instantly turned serious. “If you don’t try, how do you know?”


    Ashley was

    “Ashley, don’t you want to help?” Hazel said cidly.


    “Hazel, I just feel that… Work matters…”


    “Ashley, I think that you are someone with potential. I believe that you will be an obedient daughter–in–


    law, so I want to help you marry Henry. Will you not help me with such a trifle? Do you know how much


    it cost me to help you suppress Spike and his men?”


    Hazel interrupted Ashley’s words directly. The threat was already very strong.


    Ashley’s eyes darkened instantly, and her fingers clenched slowly.


    Sure enough, as Henry said, Hazel would only use her and had never thought of helping her sincerely!


    Now she had begun to threaten Hazel. In the future, Ashley would be controlled by Hazel


    No… She had to find a way.

    She had nothing


    Henry had no feelings for his nominal mother apart from hatred and wariness.


    “Why don’t I take the opportunity to… get rid of Hazel?” Ashley thought.
