My Husband Is A Gary Stu

Chapter 1322 Planning To Endure Forty Years Here

Xenia, who has a deep love for traditional gowns, started learning at Joshua's tailor shop through a friend's

recommendation.

The Norton family has been running a tailoring shop for generations, and it gained some fame in Jadeborough

during the seventies and eighties. Joshua went abroad to study at a prestigious fashion institute and, upon his

return, took over the traditional gown shop. He made drastic changes, not only offering traditional gowns but also

creating fusion designs that combined Eastern and Western elements. His exceptional craftsmanship quickly earned

him a stellar reputation.

After studying alongside Joshua for a while, Xenia gradually became captivated by his gentleness and skill.

However, at that time, she knew that Joshua getting married did not cross the line.

Later on, Joshua's relationship with his wife fell apart, and they got divorced. It was then that Xenia finally mustered

the courage to confess her feelings to Joshua, and the two quickly became a couple.

It had been less than a month since they separated, and Joshua's ex-wife was already regretting the divorce. She

came to him, hoping to reconcile, but Joshua turned her down.

When Joshua got married, he had a child with his wife. When they divorced, their four-year-old son was awarded to

Joshua's ex-wife. She then used their son to manipulate Joshua emotionally and spread rumors about Xenia stealing

him away. Even Joshua's father called Xenia shameless for her actions.

Fortunately, Joshua firmly stood by Xenia's side. Unable to tolerate it any longer, he said that he had to divorce her

because she had cheated on him multiple times.

Joshua's wife realized that she couldn't force Joshua to get along with her father, so she often beat their son at

home, causing him injuries and illnesses. This forced Joshua to come and take care of their son. Eventually, Joshua

saw through her tricks.

Unable to gain custody of his son, and in order not to hurt Xenia again, he had no choice but to make the tough

decision to stop looking after his son.

Not long after, Joshua's wife pleaded with Joshua to come over, using their son's birthday as an excuse.

After Joshua had left, Joshua's wife brought up the topic of remarriage with him again. When Joshua refused, she

went mad and directly picked up their son, throwing him out of the window.

That was the twenty-eighth floor, the child fell and died on the spot.

Joshua was so angry that he couldn't react in time. Facing the onlookers and the arriving police, Joshua's wife cried

and made a scene, saying that even if Joshua had argued with her, he shouldn't have taken such an extreme

action.

Joshua divorced his wife early on, so logically, the police shouldn't be able to determine that Joshua intentionally

killed the child based solely on his ex-wife's testimony.

However, Joshua's wife was on the verge of a mental breakdown due to the death of her child. She fainted from

crying several times during the trial. The lawyer Joshua's wife hired was eloquent and even brought in a neighbor

who lived on the same floor as Joshua's wife to testify. The neighbor's testimony suggested that Joshua would resort

to such extreme measures only if he couldn't gain custody of the child.

No matter how much Joshua tried to defend himself, claiming that his wife was the one who ran away with the

child, there was no evidence. To make matters worse, the judge presiding over the case had some connections with

his wife's uncle.

Joshua was ultimately sentenced to forty years due to his cruel methods, and it was ruled that he would not be

eligible for a reduced sentence or parole.

Xenia was well aware of Joshua's character. She spent a fortune hiring top-notch lawyers, but it was to no avail -

she simply couldn't outmaneuver Joshua's wife.

After Joshua was imprisoned, Xenia, who was not even thirty years old, turned gray overnight.

Later on, when she couldn't find any other solution, she moved to this tailor shop, which was first opened by the

Norton family's ancestors, and decided to take it one day at a time.

After explaining everything to Genevieve, Xenia covered her face with a handkerchief, crying so hard that she could

barely make a sound.

“I had planned to endure this for forty years, waiting for Joshua to be released after serving his sentence. But now

that I know your husband is the mayor, I believe you can definitely help me...”

Seeing Genevieve cry like this, it was likely that what she said was true, and she really did love that teacher, Joshua.

Otherwise, he would have turned gray at a young age because of his troubles.

However, Genevieve couldn't determine whether Xenia had been truthful throughout the entire conversation, as all

she heard was Xenia's verbal account.

After pondering for a moment, Genevieve asked, “Can you find evidence that Joshua's wife herself threw the child

away?”

Upon hearing Genevieve's words, Xenia stopped crying and quickly asked, “If I go find her and get her to confess to

killing the child, would that count as evidence?”

“If the police weren't involved, that would be illegal recording,” Genevieve said. “She could even turn around and

sue you.”

Xenia's face suddenly turned extremely pale.
