Chapter 18

With tears welling up in her eyes, Josie turned around and looked at Ashley with a sullen expression. 

“Hello, Mrs. Gibson, the girls at the front desk greeted Ashley in a joking manner. 

Obviously, the girls were very familiar with Ashley. 

In the eyes of the employees, Ashley was a friendly person who had no airs or graces. She was very polite to everyone and was well–liked in the Gibson Corporation. 

Josie, are you here to see Henry?” Ashley smiled knowingly as she walked toward Josie. 

“It has nothing to do with you.” Josie said coldly. 

“You don’t have to pretend. I know Henry asked you to come here to sign the divorce settlement agreement today,” Ashley whispered in Josie’s car. She was in a good mood today. 

Ashley saw the divorce settlement agreement on the table when she delivered breakfast to Henry this morning

Ashley smiled smugly as if she was the final winner. This morning, Henry agreed to let me move into his house. He even said that you packed up everything and cleared up the space for me.” 

Just as I wish, Ashley thought. 

Josie said nothing and walked straight ahead. 

“Hi, Miss. Do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked nervously, wondering if she was Ashley’s friend. 

However, Ashley just stood aside and looked at her as if she waiting for Josie to make a fool of herself. 

“You can’t go upstairs without an appointment.” The receptionist stopped Josie. 

“Henry asked me to come, Josie said in a low voice, 

“Mr. Gibson is very busy. He didn’t tell us that someone would come to see him. I’m sorry. Please don’t make things difficult for us. 

Josie glanced at Ashley. “I wonder what would happen if I didn’t go upstairs?” 

Ashley would never be acknowledged by the public if Josie didn’t sign the paper. 

Josie felt exhausted. 

And she didn’t bother to argue with Ashley. 

Ashley frowned at Josie’s answer. Then, she smiled at the receptionist. “We both know each other. I’ll take her upstairs.” 

The receptionist nodded. “All right. Ms. Long 

Josie walked into the clevator numbly as Ashley stood next to her like a hostess. To say that Josie wasn’t heartbroken was a complete lie. 

Josie clenched her fists tightly until they went numb. Even breathing seemed to hurt her. 

Josie admitted that Ashley was better than her, as she was a loser in this marriage. 

With reddened eyes, Josie walked into Henry’s office after taking a deep breath 

“Mr. Gibson is still having a meeting. Ms. Yates, please wait for a moment. The assistant who greeted Josie was the same

assistant who took care of her in the hospital. 

Josie said nothing and sat quietly aside.

Josie looked up at the assistant. 

“Are you going to get a divorce with Mr. Gibson?” The assistant had already guessed it, as she was the one who drafted the divorce settlement agreement. 

Nobody would have thought that Mr. Gibson had already married, especially when the rumors between Mr. Gibson and Ashley were splashed in headlines across all the newspapers. 

Josie nodded with tears in her eyes. “Yeah.” 

Other than that, she didn’t say anything else. 

It was a marriage that would never get recognized by outsiders. 

The assistant sighed and felt sorry for them. 

She felt sorry that Mr. Gibson’s marriage ended up like this. 

Josie had been waiting in the office from 9 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. Finally, Henry opened the door and walked in. 

Josie’s forehead began to feel warm, and she knew that she had a fever again. 

“You can look at the agreement now. Henry put the agreement on the table. 

Josie picked it up and glanced at it. It was no different from her earlier version. She would still leave with marriage with nothing as planned. 

“I changed my mind… Josie said in a hoarse voice. 

Henry was stunned for a moment. Then his heart skipped a beat

“Did Josie regret her decision?” Henry thought. 

Henry breathed a sigh of relief. Jo, I told you long ago. You…” 

“Grandpa gave me 20% of the original issue shares, so I’ll keep it to myself,” Josie interrupted Henry’s words

Mr. John Gibson owned 75% of the founder’s shares, so he had absolute control and decision–making power over Gibson Corporation. Meanwhile, since Henry worked in the company, he also had 55% of the original issue shares, as well as the absolute control and decision–making power of the subsidiary company. 

John was worried that Henry would divorce Josie in the future, so he had a backup plan for his granddaughter.
