After Charlie saw it, she smiled obscenely and showed Imogen her phone. “Imogen, look, he wants your Facebook number.”
Imogen just thought that they were thinking too much. “Didn’t I tell you? He just wanted to me for the dry cleaning fee.”

Charlie raised her eyebrows and replied to Erik. [Why do you want her number?]
Erik was typing for a long time and finally sent a message. [I stained her clothes, so I should her for the dry cleaning fee.]

When Imogen saw it, she spread her hands. “Look, I just said…”
Before she finished speaking, Erik sent another message. [Besides, that lady is very pretty.]
Charlie giggled and teased Imogen, “Imogen, what do you want to say?”
Imogen turned her head, casually glanced in the direction of Erik and his companions, and inadvertently met Erik’s eyes.
She immediately looked away, feeling very embarrassed.
She was not thinking of starting a new relationship right now.
Even if she were, she would not choose someone younger than her.
Probably because she always needed love, she wanted to find a mature and stable man who could tolerate her and let her feel the warmth of home, just like her father.
Many college students nowadays were still like children. She was already very tired and had no interest in watching a child grow up.
After staying in Oslo for three days, Imogen and her two companions went to Tromso.
At that time, Troy was discharged from the hospital and had just returned to Galaxy Villa.
As soon as he entered the house, the cute cat greeted him under his feet.
Troy stopped and looked at it condescendingly.
He remembered that Imogen was silent after she gave birth in the villa. If she hadn’t been accompanied by Mochi, she would have been bored, and her condition might have worsened. Imogen didn’t love him, but she cared so much about the child. If she had really had a child before, how could she be so indifferent as if the child didn’t exist?
Mochi didn’t care about Troy’s gaze. It crawled onto Troy’s shoe with its sharp claws hooking his suit trousers, trying to climb up.
Troy picked up Mochi and was about to go upstairs.
Sue came out of the bathroom, carrying the trash. “Mr. Marshall, you are back.”
Troy nodded and didn’t speak.
Sue subconsciously looked at Troy.
He seemed to be thinner. His face was thin, his eye became deeper, and there were wrinkles on his eyelids. He was still sharp and always frowned, which made him look stricter. His strong aura made
people dare not look into his
eyes.
Sue quickly moved her eyes away and sighed secretly. Troy had a hard time recently. Henry passed away, and Imogen had a miscarriage. Then they got divorced, and there was a car accident. Definitely, Troy had suffered a lot from so many bad things.
“Mrs. Marshall asked me to give you a box before she left.”
Troy stopped, and his hand stroking Mochi’s back paused. He looked
up at Sue.
Sue hurriedly took out the box. The box was very delicate, with pearls embedded on the surface. When Sue opened it, Troy saw many exquisite jewelry boxes inside.
“Mrs. Marshall said these are all jewelry you gave her. They are too expensive, and she doesn’t usually use them, so she asked me to return them to you.”
Troy put down Mochi, walked over slowly, picked up a box, and opened it. Inside was a necklace.
He bought it for Imogen on the way when he went to pick her up at her hometown on the day after recording the interview. She probably only opened it and took a look but never took it out.
The boxes under it were also filled with all kinds of jewelry, such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, and more.
These should also be gifts he gave Imogen.
Except for the necklace on the top, he didn’t have any impression of the others.
He should have ordered Lane to buy them, but he hadn’t even looked at them himself.
Then, he also saw a few small square boxes in the big box, which looked like ring boxes. When he opened one of them, he saw a female ring inside.
It was one of the pair of rings that he took her to buy on the day Cedric apologized to her. When they received the custom ring, he put it on her finger in person.
He still remembered how the ring looked on her slender finger.
The male ring was on his hand, but he never noticed when she had taken hers off.
Troy held the ring and looked at it for a long time. His eyes darkened.
He put the ring back in the box, closed the box, and took it upstairs.
At eight o’clock in the evening, in the box of the club.
It was dimly lit and noisy.
Riley opened the door and came in. He greeted Hector and the others, looked around, and walked to the sofa in the corner.
He sat down beside Troy and asked casually, “Why are you sitting here?”
“This place is quiet,” Troy replied. His voice sounded calm.
“Have you gotten divorced?” Riley took out the cigarette case from his pocket.
“Yes.”
Riley glanced at Troy and threw a cigarette over.
Troy lit it with Riley’s lighter and smoked.
“Where is she now?” Riley took a puff of the cigarette.
“Traveling in Norway with friends.”
Troy was so calm. Riley looked at him in surprise. “Did you just let go like that? I would never let my beloved woman leave.”
Troy was silent, touched the cigarette ash with his index finger, and smoked again.
How could he be willing to let her go?
If he could really let her go, he wouldn’t have asked Yann to put a locator with her.
If he hadn’t suddenly found out the truth, he would be in Norway now.
Riley didn’t know the story. Seeing that Troy didn’t speak, Riley thought Troy was really going to let Imogen go. “It’s not like you.”
“I need time.”
Troy closed his eyes, leaned back against the back of the sofa, and took a puff of the cigarette. The smoke floated in circles until it disappeared.
That matter kept haunting him. It even brought a thorn in his heart.
If he didn’t figure it out, the thorn would remind him from time to time that Imogen had children with another man.
But Troy didn’t know about it until he fell in love with Imogen. He was unprepared and couldn’t accept it.
He couldn’t let Imogen go.
He clearly understood that he really loved Imogen, and he couldn’t forget the three years he spent
with her.
She was inconspicuous and always silent, but she had reached every corner of his world when he didn’t even notice it.
Time made him fall in love with Imogen.
But she had a child with another man, and she might still love that man. That man was even irreplaceable to her.
Troy didn’t know what he should do to make Imogen care a little more about him.
As long as he thought about that child, he would feel miserable. The feeling made him crazy like a trapped monster, struggling and roaring. He wanted to explode and kill that man!
“Did something happen?” Riley looked at Troy’s expression and asked.
Troy remained silent, held a cigarette in one hand, poured himself a glass of wine with the other, and drank it in one gulp.
Riley didn’t ask any more questions about Imogen. “It’s not good for your injury. Don’t drink too
much.”
“Troy? Why do you start smoking?” Cedric came over and sat down.
Troy came back to his senses and said indifferently, “I want to smoke, so I smoke.”
“I heard that you divorced Imogen.”
“Yes.”
There was a moment of silence:
People in the box were playing cards or drinking, but they all secretly paid attention to Troy.
There had always been rumors that the reason why Troy married Imogen was because Henry liked Imogen, and Troy made the clarification in the previous interview because of the pressure from Henry.
Not long after Henry passed away, Troy divorced Imogen. It seemed that the rumors were true. Sarah hadn’t appeared in front of the media for a long time.

Another rumor was that Troy divorced Imogen and wanted to marry Sarah, so he didn’t want Sarah to show up in public.
Cedric knew a little about the truth. He knew that Imogen had a miscarriage and asked for a divorce.
Although he had never thought Imogen was a good match for Troy, that baby was Troy’s child after all.
He was about to comfort Troy, but someone stupid said, “Congratulations to Mr. Marshall for getting freedom again. He should have divorced Imogen long ago. Mr. Marshall is such a great man. How can a woman like Imogen deserve him?”
