Ex-Husband’s Endless Pestering

Chapter 237

Chapter 237 It was unusually quiet during dinner. Josie sat next to Samuel without saying a word. “Mr. Lewis Turner, you should eat more. How is your health?” Lorelai had a very sweet tongue. She had been chatting with Lewis all this while. Lewis was in a good mood, and he was exceptionally happy to see Josic. “Good, good. You should all have more food too,” Lewis said with a smile. “Mr. Turner, you’re in high spirits today. You look really young Lorelai complimented Lewis. “I’m glad to see all of you here today.” Lewis then turned to Josie Jo, you must eat more.” “Okay. Grandpa bewis. Josie nodded obediently. Samuel was holding Josie’s hand under the table. He squeezed it gently. Smiling coyly at Samuel, Josie picked some vegetables with her fork and ate them. “Why are you eating so little? Young girls shouldn’t eat less because they want to maintain good figures. Is the food not to your liking?” Lorelai asked in a disapproving tone. She was behaving like she was the mistress of the house. Josie was a little embarrassed. “I always have a small appetite since I was a child.” “It won’t do your health any good if you eat so little. You’ll regret it when you have a child in the future.” Lorelai constantly brought up the topic of children between her lines. 4 Lorelai had found out that Henry and Josie never had any children all those years. Carrying on the bloodline was very important to prestigious families like the Turner family. Samuel was the only man in the Turner family. Of course, everyone hoped he would get married and have children as soon as possible. Lewis expression changed although he did not say a word. Lorelai beamed. “Come on, have more food.”

Samuel frowned and remarked, “Must a woman have a thick waist and a rotund body to give birth to a child?”

Samuel then turned to Matilda and grinned. “Matilda, you should eat more. Otherwise, someone will think you are too skinny and can’t bear children in the future.” Matilda’s hand that was holding the fork suddenly stiffened. She did not know what to say. Samuel had made a wisecrack at her mother’s sarcastic commen Not only had Lorelai failed to insult Josie, Matilda now had to bear the brunt of it “Talda is still young When the time comes for her to have a child, she will take care of herself. Besides, her health has always been very good Lorelai smiled Tania put down har fork. The bonded eating. It’s better to stay spm I envy Jo’s slender hgure. When I was carrying Nina, J M. Chapter 237 weighed slightly over 99 pounds. I was as skinny as a beanpole, but no one said I couldn’t bear any children” Tania smiled at Josie. “However. I started to put on weight after giving birth to Samuel. You shouldn’t have too many children. I leave it up to you to decide if you want any children. The Turner family already has many descendants. Daughters are also our children. Carrying on the bloodline is such old- fashioned thinking.” ” Outtalked by Tania, Lorelai commented softly, “A daughter is, after all, a woman. Her children belong to another family. The Turner family still needs to depend on Samuel to carry on the family lineage. Am I right. Mr. Turner?” Lorelai wanted to know what Lewis’ opinion was. Old folks were generally more traditional. “I never had high hopes for Samuel since he was a child. Nina is a lot more endearing. I wouldn’t have

objected to Tania aborting the child if it did not affect her health. Lewis looked disdainfully at Samuel Amused. Josie held Samuel’s hand tightly and whispered to him, “Looks like your family doesn’t like you.” “My mom went to the hospital to have an abortion twice. She saved my life only because she was afraid.” Samuel bantered with Josie. Josie covered her mouth to conceal her smile. Then you’re really lucky.” Samuel grinned. Since the elders in the family had already made their point, he would not say any further. He was relieved that everyone in the Turner family was looking out for Josie. Samuel knew that everyone in his family liked Josic. They now favored Josie over Samuel. “Mr. Lewis Turner, you’re so funny.” Lorelai smiled awkwardly. Seeing that there was nothing else she could say to her advantage, she decided to keep quiet for the time being. After dinner, Lorelai left with Matilda. Tania muttered unhappily, “She’s never been likable since she was young. She doesn’t know how to conduct herse hang out with such people in the future.” Samuel smiled. “I remember that Ms. Zabka got divorced because she had an affair. Am I right?” “That’s right. She was such a discontented woman. She had an affair with that senior executive of Langford Group when was still married. Tania snorted. Josie was silent all this while. She did not think it was appropriate to say anything during this time. Although she was not good at making conversations with old folks, she knew basic manners. Lorelai was her elder, no matter how mean she was. Josie could not argue with her elders. Besides, the elders of the Turner family were all looking out for her. Josie was very grateful for that. “In the future, don’t have any dealings with these people. Their motives are too blatant. She’s such a bad influence on her daughter” Samuel peeled a navel orange for Josie. “They are too Eaught up with climbing the ranks. She knows about Josie and me, yet shen ntinues to pester me. She is even willing

to be my mistress Unable to stop herself from laughing out loud, Jouir poked Samuel playfully. He was always so blunt M. Chapter 237 Both Tania and Lewis were shocked to hear that. “Is it true?” “Why do you think they suddenly paid us a visit when we haven’t been in touch frequently?” Samuel rolled his eyes. Samuel was the youngest son of the Turner family. He had been spoilt by his grandfather, parents, and three sisters. He felt the most relaxed at home, where he could be as tardy and flippant as he wished. It was the roguish charm that made him very attractive. Admittedly, the Turner family had very good genes. Josie had read in the news that Nina was once talent scouted while out in the streets. When the talent scout knew she was from the Turner family, he immediately backed off. No ordinary person would dare to mess with the Turner family. “If I knew that Lorelai had ulterior motives, I would not have let her into the house. How dare she have any ideas ori Samuel!” Tania felt a flash of irritation. Samuel nodded in agreement with Tania’s words. “Unfortunately for her, your son is very pure and innocent.” Josie tried to hold back her laughter. She did not want to appear to be too rude in front of her elders. Lewis gave Samuel a look of disgust. “Jo, don’t be afraid. The Turner family is not the unfaithful sort. We, elders, have always set a good example for our descendants. We are very devoted to our partners.” Lewis assured Josie that the Turner family was not fickle-minded. “If he dares to do you any wrong, tell me. I will break his legs. Samuel sat upright immediately. “Grandpa Lewis, Josie will misunderstand what you’re saying. I’ve been so pure and innocent all this while. I’ll never be a dishonorable person.”

Amused. Tania burst out laughing. Samuel only behaved like this at home. He would cheer his elders up with his frivolous remarks. Once he stepped out of the Turner residence, he would become cold and aloof. Josie could not help laughing too. “Yes, that’s right. Samuel is very innocent…. After all, he had been single for more than 20 years. “Why does it seem a little…” Samuel turned to look at Josie and smiled. “You are trying to…” Samuel sensed that josie was teasing him for being a celibate all this while. Jour blushed and looked away nervously. “Don’t talk nonsense. O 415© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
