Chapter 204
Wait for You Forever!
Outside the door, Charlie’s voice could be heard, “Imogen, should we cook lunch ourselves or order
takeout?”
Imogen sighed in relief, took a sip of water, closed herptop, and got up to open the door. “Either
is fine.”
Charlie chuckled, “Let’s order takeout then.”
“Alright.”
Imogen wasn’t in the mood to cook now, so she came out and sat with Charlie, discussing what to
order for lunch while sitting on the sofa, lost in thought.
The kidnappers must have had a lot of capabilities, so the hostage they kidnapped must have had
an important identity.
If she wanted to investigate further, she couldn’t do it alone.
“What are you thinking so seriously about?” Charlie asked when she noticed.
“It’s nothing,” Imogen snapped out of her thoughts and smiled. “By the way, Charlie, do if there are
any private detectives in New York City?”
you know
“Private detectives? Why are you asking about that?” Charlie widened her eyes. “Who do to
investigate?”
you want
Imogen half–jokingly said, “I want to investigate the truck driver who killed my father.” Imogen didn’t
say much, but Charlie understood her thoughts.
With the Marshall family’s adoption, donations from various sectors of society, Ignacio’s own
savings, and Imogen’s own excellent academic performance and schrship, she wasn’t worried
about money. She just wanted the truck driver to pay for what he did.
Although the truck driver had already received a heavy sentence,pared to the death of
Imogen’s father, a few years in prison was simply a bargain. It was normal for Imogen to feel
dissatisfied. After all, her father had been her whole world.
“I’m not sure about private detectives, but I can help you find out,” Charlie offered.
“Thank you. Just make sure not to raise any suspicions. I’m afraid we’ll scare them off,” Imogen
said.
“I understand,” Charlie nodded. “By the way, Liam invited us out for dinner. Did he tell you?” Imogen
raised an eyebrow and checked her phone, realizing that Liam had indeed sent her a message. She
had been so focused on searching for news rted to the kidnapping case that she hadn’t paid
attention to her phone.
“Did he mention a specific time? Should we invite Alex too?”
“It’s for tonight. I’ll ask Alex if he’s avable,” Charlie replied.
“Okay.”
At five o’clock in the evening, Imogen and Charlie went to the designated restaurant together.
Charlie had already booked a private room.
Ten minutester, Alex and Liam arrived one after the other.
Seeing Imogen, Liam couldn’t help but show concern. “Imogen, I’m really sorry about that day. Are
the injuries on your hady
He was surrounded by a crowd, and couldn’t see anything clearly with the chaotic noise around
him. He didn’t notice Imogen falling down at the first moment. After getting off the ne, he
messaged Imogen, but Imogen didn’t say much. Later, he learned from Charlie that Imogen had
fallen and been stepped on.
“I’m fine now, just some minor bruises.”
Speaking of the incident at Melbourne Airport, Charlie couldn’t help butin, “The fans were so
crazy. Did you find out how your itinerary was leaked?”
“It’s been figured out. It was an assistant, and Carter took care of it,” Liam said, feeling relieved as
he looked at Imogen with concern: “Fortunately, Imogen wasn’t seriously injured. Otherwise, I
wouldn’t be able to forgive myself.”
“It’s not your fault. You were also a victim,” Imogen said.
At that time, the situation was so chaotic that Liam almost missed his flight.
“Let’s not talk about that. Let’s order food first,” Charlie said.
“Yes, let’s order first,” Alex added.
After cing their orders, Alex shifted the topic. “How was your trip to Australia?”
Charlie couldn’t help but talk non–stop about their sightseeing experiences, sharing their itinerary
and even creating a small chat group to share the beautiful photos they took, including the coral and
sea turtles they encountered while diving, which made Alex extremely envious.
The waiter quickly brought their food.
Imogen excused herself and went to the restroom.
She dried her hands with a paper towel, and as she came out, she suddenly stopped.
Liam was standing at the entrance of the restroom, as if waiting for someone. Hearing footsteps
behind him, he turned his head and said, “Imogen.”
“Why are you standing here?” Imogen asked.
“I have something to tell you,” Liam looked deeply into Imogen’s eyes.
Imogen’s expression froze for a moment, then she smiled and said, “Can’t you say it in the private
room? Let’s go, let’s eat.”
Liam wouldn’t allow her to avoid it, and he grabbed her wrist. “Imogen, you know what I’m going to
say.”
After waiting patiently for her divorce, Liam didn’t want to wait any longer to avoid more
complications.

Imogen paused for a moment, calmly removed her hand from Liam’s grasp, eurled her lip, and
looked at him seriously. “Liam, I don’t want to lose you as a friend.”
If certain things were said, they wouldn’t even be able to be friends.
Liam’s face turned slightly pale, a hint of hidden pain in his eyes. “You’ve never considered have
you?”
me,
Imogen turned her gaze away, calmly looking into the distance. “Don’t waste your time on me.”
“He cheated on you, and yet you still like him?”
“Whether I like him or not, it’s not important. I just got out of a marriage, and right now, I don’t have
the energy to enter into a new rtionship.”
“I can wait for you, wait for you to emerge from the shadow of your previous marriage,” Liam said
firmly, without any hesitation.
Imogen hesitated for a moment.
“What if I can never move on?”
“Then I’ll wait for you forever!”
Imogen felt a headacheing.
She wasn’t joking.
Her first marriage had left her emotionally drained, and she really had no intention of getting married
again, even nning to never get married again.
Being alone was fine for her.
And right now, she didn’t have the mental space to think about these things. She only wanted to
seek revenge for her father.
Imogen was about to say something when suddenly there was a sound of pping nearby.
Troy walked over, his gaze shifting between Imogen and Liam, and he smirked. “Waiting for
forever… How touching!”
you
Imogen was surprised to see Troy, but didn’t want to listen to his sarcasm. She said to Liam, “Let’s
go.”
Liam ignored Troy as well and walked side by side with Imogen toward the private room.
Seeing that they were both ignoring him, Troy’s face turned pale. He called out to Imogen as she
passed by, “Imogen!”
Seeing that Imogen didn’t react, Troy became furious and clenched his fist. “Don’t you care about
Mochi anymore?”
Imogen paused for a moment, angrily rushing up to Troy. “Where did you take Mochi?!” Troy smiled
and replied, “Mochi is at the pet hospital. Where else could I have taken it?” “Then what did you
mean by that statement?” Imogen asked.
Troy smirked. “Go with me now to pick up Mochi. If you dare to leave, you’ll never see Mochi
again!”
Imogen exploded with anger and red at Troy. “Troy! Are you using Mochi to threaten me? You’re
despicable!”
She was infuriated!
Mochi meant more to her than just a little kitten she had spent a month with. When she was most
desperate and helpless, Mochi gave her a sense of support and brought a hint of vitality to her life.
In more extreme terms, Mochi was like her own child.
Troy raised an eyebrow and said, “So, are you going toe with me to pick up Mochi?” Imogen
stared at Troy, grinding her teeth in frustration.
She took a deep breath, turned to Liam, and said, “Liam, you go back to the private room. Tell
Charlie and Alex that I have something to attend to and will be away for a while.”
Liam looked worriedly at Imogen, but when he saw the look in her eyes, he red at Troy and
asked, “Troy, you’re already divorced from Imogen. Why do you keep bothering her?!”
Troy remained unfazed. “Who said that divorce means we can’t reconcile?!”
Chapter 204 Then I Will Wait for You Forever!
Seeing that Liam wanted to say more, Imogen stopped him. “Liam, don’t bother arguing with him.
You go back first.”
Reluctantly, Liam suppressed his anger and told Imogen, “Take care of yourself then.”
After he finished speaking, he cast an angry nce at Troy and walked away.
Imogen looked at Troy disdainfully and said, “Let’s go, take me to pick up
Mochi.”
Troy didn’t move a step and stared deeply at Imogen. His tone unconsciously carried a hint of
jealousy. “You liked him for so long. Now that you’ve got what you wanted, he’s willing to wait for
you forever. You must be so touched, right?”
Imogen rolled her eyes silently. “Yes, I’m very touched. Now take me to pick up Mochi.”
Troy clenched his teeth and asked, “So, are you nning to be with him?”
“It’s none of your business. If you’re not leaving, I’ll go back to the private room.”
Troy took a deep breath, suppressed the feeling of heartache, and grabbed Imogen’s wrist. “Let’s
go.”
Imogen tried to break free, but Troy’s grip tightened.
Imogen rolled her eyes in exasperation.
In the parking lot, Imogen opened the passenger door and sat in without expression. “Hurry up.”
Troy sat in the driver’s seat but didn’t start the car right away.
He smiled self–deprecatingly. “You’re in such a rush to pick up Mochi. Is it because you want to cut
ties with me?”
Imogen looked ahead, frowned, and said, “Troy, sometimes I really don’t know what you’re thinking.
Didn’t you decide to sell the Gxy Vi? I thought you had figured it out…” “Figured out what?”
“You said you liked me, but it was only out of guilt and possessiveness toward your ex–wife. You
like Sarah. Didn’t you make her quit the entertainment industry and n to marry her? Why are you
still clinging to me?”
Upon hearing Imogen’s words, Troy fell silent.
He didn’t know how to rify her misunderstanding of him.
