Chapter 201 Did Jeremy Satisfy You?
Imogen drove her car to Galaxy Villa.
She couldn’t help but slow down as she approached the section near the villa.
There was an inexplicable feeling when being close there.
Imogen took a deep breath and calmed down.
The car stopped at the gate of Galaxy Villa.
The license plate number was still in the security monitoring of the apartment, and the gate lever was raised. She stepped on the accelerator, drove in, and stopped outside the villa.
Sue was cleaning in the courtyard, and when she heard the sound of the car engine, she looked up, put down the broom–in surprise, and came up to her. “Mrs. Marshall, you are back!”
Imogen smiled faintly, “Sue, I’m divorced from him, so stop calling me Mrs. Marshall. I’m here today to pick up Mochi.”
Sue said kind of pitifully, “Ms. Forbes, Mochi is not here now.” Imogen was surprised. “Mochi isn’t here?”
“Yes.” Sue sighed, “It’s all my fault. I hugged Mochi to play in the yard some days ago. It may
be because it is too young to have strong immunity or because the yard is too humid. Unexpectedly, Mochi got ringworm. So Mr. Marshall sent Mochi to the pet hospital.”
Ringworm was not life–threatening, but it would cause hair loss in cats. It would spread all over the body in severe cases, and the treatment cycle was very long. If it was serious, external medicine might not be helpful. But Mochi was too young, so internal medicine might be harmful to its liver.
Imogen was worried. “Which pet hospital is Mochi in?”
“Well… I don’t know.” Sue shook her head apologetically. “Mr. Marshall sent it to the hospital but didn’t tell me where it was.”
Sue said again, “Mr. Marshall is at home now. How about you ask him?”
Imogen was silent for a few seconds, and the scene that she and Troy ended on bad terms last time appeared in her mind.
Well, sooner or later, they still had to meet.
“Okay, then I’ll ask.”
Imogen stepped into the living room, went straight to the second floor, and knocked on the door of the study.
After two seconds of silence, a deep voice came from inside. “Come in.”
Imogen pressed the doorknob, pushed the door open, and entered.
Troy was concentrating on the computer screen without raising his head as if he thought the person who came in was Sue. “What’s the matter?”
Imogen took two steps inside. “Well, excuse me… Which pet hospital is Mochi in?”
Hearing her voice, Troy looked over in surprise. Seeing that it was Imogen, he naturally leaned back on the chair, withdrew his hand from the keyboard, and placed it on the armrest. When tapping the armrest lightly twice, he asked flatly, “You? What did you just say?”
“Which pet hospital is Mochi in? I’ll pick it up when it recovers from ringworm.” Imogen
repeated. “Why do
you
ask me? I don’t know.” Troy moved the mouse and continued to look at the computer seriously as if he had some important work to do.
If Imogen walked behind Troy, she would see the desktop on the computer screen.
And if Imogen had an avatar who came to the study early, she would know that since Imogen exited the car, Troy had been watching her from the window. When he saw Imogen enter the living room, he quickly sat behind the desk and turned on the computer, pretending to be working
hard.
Imogen paused. “Sue said you sent it to the pet hospital.”
“I had something to do that day, so Lane sent it to the hospital.”
Imogen felt a bit speechless.
“All right. Then I’ll call and ask Mr. Jordan. Thank you. You can proceed with your work now.”
After speaking, Imogen took two steps back, grabbed the doorknob, and wanted to close the door and leave.
“Wait,” Troy said suddenly and stopped her.
Imogen stopped. “Is there anything else?”
Troy was about to say something when his phone on the desk rang suddenly.
He gestured to Imogen to wait a moment and answered the phone. “Hello… Well, Sue has been at the villa all the time… You can come to visit the house at any time… The price can be discussed later…”
Lane, on the other side of the phone, was confused. “Mr. Marshall? What are you talking about?” “That’s it. I’ve got to go first.” Troy hung up the phone without changing his face and put the phone on the desk, but his eyes kept falling on Imogen’s face. He didn’t want to ignore the slightest expression change on Imogen.
Lane was puzzled.
Was Troy trying to sell the villa?
Imogen silently bit her lower lip.
It seemed that Troy had thought it through clearly and decided to say goodbye to the marriage of the past three years.
He might prepare to marry Sarah.
Wasn’t this precisely what Imogen wanted?
Didn’t she also want to sell the villa at that time?
But why did she feel a little disappointed in her heart after knowing the news?
Maybe she hadn’t gotten used to it yet, and it would be fine in the future.
Imogen ealmed down. “Are you going to sell this villa?”
Troy observed the expression on her face carefully. “I have this plan.”
“It would be best if you sell it. Since you’re divorced, it’s useless to keep it.” Imogen said lightly, “By the way, what did you want to say just now?”
Seeing that Imogen was indifferent, Troy became furious.
His
eyes were rageful, and he couldn’t help but speak nonsense, “How is your trip to Australia? Did
Jeremy satisfy you?”
Imogen’s face turned pale. Then she took a deep breath. “Is this what you wanted to say? Then, thank you for your concern. Jeremy is young and has good physical strength. I am happy with
him!”
Troy’s complexion turned incredibly dark. He got up and approached Imogen step by step, gritted his teeth, and paused after every single word. “Good physical strength? You, are, happy?”
“Yes.” Imogen nodded calmly, staring directly at Troy. “Is there anything else?”
Troy laughed in anger. “Imogen! Very well!”
He quickly calmed down when he left the ward that day, knowing Imogen was deliberately pissing
him off!
But after calming down, he became even angrier.
To get rid of him, she could even say those words!
Did she really hate and loathe him so much?
After returning, he had been paying attention to her news in Australia. He knew Jeremy had been arrested, so now she was still intentionally angering him!
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“Do you really want to get rid of me that much?” Troy squeezed out these words through his teeth. “I don’t need to get rid of you because we are divorced and have our respective lives. If you have nothing else, I’ll leave first.”
Imogen turned around to leave, but Troy grabbed Imogen’s wrist. “Don’t go!”
“Let go of me!”
Whenever they met, what she said most was to remind him of their divorce.
Troy’s eyes were filled with rage, and he looked at Imogen deeply, full of helplessness.
Were they really over?
He was not reconciled!
Their eyes met, but Imogen looked away. “Can you let go of me?”
“I have something for you.”
“What?”
Troy let go of Imogen’s hand, went to the bookshelf, took out a small box, and handed it to Imogen. “These are things I gave you earlier. I won’t take them back since they have been given to you. So you should take them away.”
After speaking, he couldn’t help but laugh at himself. “Don’t you want to keep Jeremy? These things are worth a lot of money if you sell them.”
This was the jewelry box she returned to Troy earlier.
But Imogen didn’t want to keep these things. She would only feel sentimental as she saw them. “You can just keep them. If you insist on giving them to me, then help me sell them and wire the
money directly to the orphanage. I’ll leave first. Goodbye.”
Imogen turned around, left the study, and went downstairs.
