Chapter 360.2 No Way to Reverse II
Imogen avoided eye contact, with a hint of redness in her eyes. “Not long after I arrived in the Jubilian City, I had this idea because I encountered an old acquaintance, which reminded me of the time when I was a left–behind child…”
Troy knew that the person Imogen referred to as her old acquaintance was Irene, dispelling any doubts he had. He quickly comforted her. “Imogen, I’m sorry for bringing up your sad past. The hardest days are behind us, and no matter what you want to do in the future, I will support you. As for the old acquaintance, they are insignificant and not worth worrying about.”
Irene’s significance to Imogen was similar to Emily’s significance to Troy. They were both inconsequential.
“I know, it’s just a feeling.” Imogen lowered her gaze and made unfounded a countercharge. “But why did you assume that I’ll leave because of Leo when I established a foundation? If you truly believe he is not the mastermind, you should have confidence in finding evidence. Or is it because you know deep down that Leo can never overturn the case?”
“No, I’m just afraid of you leaving,” Troy hurriedly responded.
“But a few days ago, you asked me to trust you and give you time. I already promised you, but you didn’t trust me…” Imogen pinched her thigh forcefully, wiped the corners of her eyes, and continued, “You simply don’t care about my feelings. You only care about yourself.”
Troy panicked. “Imogen, I’m sorry. Please don’t cry. I do care about your feelings. I just…”
He embraced Imogen, stretching out his arms. “I just can’t live without you… I promise you I will never doubt you again.”
“Only a fool would believe your words.” Imogen gave him a glare. “You have said countless times before that you wouldn’t bother me anymore, but you never kept your promise.”
Imogen had long discovered that some of Troy’s words were utterly meaningless. They were just empty talks.
Troy forced a smile, kissed Imogen, and whispered, “I’m not ashamed for the sake of my wife.”
“Shame on you.” Imogen frowned.
Looking at Imogen’s adorable expression of disdain, Troy couldn’t help himself and kissed her on the face again. “How about going upstairs with me tonight?”
Imogen glared at him, saying, “Get lost! I’m tired after a whole day. I’m going home to rest.”
Imogen pushed Troy aside and approached the door.
Troy was about to follow up.
With a bang, the door closed.
Troy halted his steps, looking at the closed door in front of him. He rubbed his nose and shouted, “Imogen, have a good rest. I’m going back upstairs.”
Inside the room, Imogen met Charlie’s gaze, feeling guilty, and averted her eyes. She diverted the topic. “Charlie, aren’t you asleep yet?”
Charlie was sitting on the sofa. She was about to go downstairs to take out the trash, but upon hearing noises outside the door, she saw the two hugging together from the monitor screen, so she
retreated.
Imogen wore a guilty face as if she had done something wrong. Charlie asked, “I’m about to sleep.

By the way, how is your foundation doing? Do you have time in the next few days?”
“What’s the matter?” Imogen felt relieved that Charlie seemed unaware of what had just happened outside.
“My dad wants me to go on a blind date again. If I don’t go, he’ll kick me out of the house,” Charlie complained while running her hand through her hair.
“When did the man schedule it for?”
“The day after tomorrow, at Sunset Bar.”
Imogen frowned. “Why did he choose that place?”
She thought it was unusual to have a blind date at a bar for the first meeting.
Charlie nodded. “Do you find it strange, too? I can tell right away that he’s not a good person…” Imogen glanced at her phone. “I’m free the day after tomorrow night. I’ll accompany you.”
“Great, we’ll meet and come back right away. Thank goodness you’re here! Otherwise, I wouldn’t know who to talk to.”
“Has Chad been bothering you lately?” Imogen asked.
“Don’t mention him.” Charlie became even more annoyed. “He has a girlfriend now.”
Charlie thought, “That scoundrel! Why does he bother me even though he has a girlfriend? One moment, he creates a chance encounter. How annoying!”
Imogen was surprised and felt even more disgusted with Chad. “I’m going to freshen up.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Okay.”
Just as Imogen was about to enter the room, Charlie suddenly stopped her and mischievously said, “Oh, by the way, Imogen, did I hear a man’s voice outside just now?”
Imogen’s steps paused. She composed herself and calmly replied, “You must have misheard.”
“Really?”
“Of course.”
Charlie twitched the corners of her lips, feeling a little amused when she saw Imogen lying seriously.
