Therefore, on Christmas Eve, it seemed that he was forcing Imogen to break up, but in fact, it was
Imogen’s will.
She obviously wanted to break up with Erik, but she acted like she didn’t want to break of him to
make him angry.
The woman, after divorcing him, got a lot of nerve!
Troy took off his headphones and threw them into the storage box.
The fury in his heart was burning more and more, almost uncontroble.
up
in front
He was screaming in his mind to turn around and go back to find Imogen to settle the issues, press
her on the bed, and make her cry to see if she still dared to irritate him!
The only trace of reason made him suppress this idea.
While waiting for the traffic light to change, Troy took a cigarette and a lighter from his pocket and
bit it between his teeth. He thought of Grace in the back seat when he was about to ignite it and put
the lighter back.
The red light turned green, and Troy restarted the car.
By the time he arrived at the Gxy Vi, the cigarette filter had been chewed to pieces by him.
After sending Grace home, Troy turned the car around and headed to thepany.
The cell phone rang.
He nced at the cell phone screen beside him and freed one hand to answer the call, “Hello?”
As soon as the phone got through, Emily questioned, “Troy, did you take Grace to register for
residence?”
“Yes.”
There was a trace of irritation in Troy’s eyes, and he had no desire to speak and did not want to
argue with Emily.
Emily burst out in anger. “You… you’re really out of your mind! What did Imogen give you to make
you give up having your own child?! It’s fine if Grace is a boy, she’s just a girl…”
“Auntie, I know what I’m doing very well. From now on, I will be Grace’s guardian. You are free to
visit her when you miss her. As for other things, don’t interfere.”
Troy looked at the traffic ahead and said firmly, “You can say these things in front of me, but don’t
say them in front of Grace. You will break her heart.”
“You really want to piss me off!”
“I don’t have such intentions.”
“Do you know why I keep stopping her from being with you? Let me tell you the truth. Imogen has
given birth to a child with another man! When she was on exchange abroad, I went to London on aCopyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
business trip and saw her with a few people in a bar. When we met againter, she had a big belly,
and she quickly dodged when she saw me, lest I find out what she was doing abroad! Originally, I
didn’t care about her affairs, but your grandpa insisted on making you a couple. Troy! Think about it.
How did I treat her before that? A woman like her is not worthy of you at all!”
Before the two married, Emily had an indifferent attitude and treated Imogen as a transparent
person.

Although they were not close, they never spoke ill of each other.
After Henry announced that they would get married, Emily suddenly became particrly bad
towards Imogen. Indeed, as she said, she felt unworthy for her nephew.
Troy lowered his eyes.
He had investigated Imogen’s experiences abroad and knew that Emily had exaggerated the facts
and that half of her words were false.
Maybe Emily really saw Imogen, who was pregnant, so…
Troy narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “Did you give Sarah the photos?!”
There was a sudden silence on the other side for a few seconds.
Emily didn’t expect that Troy suddenly brought this up.
She admitted, “I gave it to her! I want you to see what kind of person Imogen truly is! I want you to
wake up!”
Unexpectedly, Troy could ept the fact that Imogen had given birth without any grudges! Emily
originally wanted to take advantage of Sarah and make the photos public to ruin Imogen’s
reputation.
She couldn’t do this in person because doing so would damage the rtionship between her and
Troy.
She didn’t expect Sarah to be so useless that Troy could easily deceive the photo away.
“I will pretend that this never happened. Marriage is something that none but the wearer knows
where the shoe pinches. In the future, please do not do anything to destroy my marriage in the
name of doing good for me.” Troy warned.
Seeing that she was wasting her time, Emily was so angry.
She didn’t want to have tense conversations with Troy, so she took the initiative to change the
subject. “Forget it, do whatever you like. By the way, I heard from other shareholders that there has
been some friction in the business between thepany and the Harrington family recently, and
the Harrington family is trying to rob some projects of thepany?”
Thinking of the past events in his youth, Emily roughly guessed why Yohan attacked the Marshall
family after taking power, and a hint ofplexity shed in her eyes.
“Well.”
“I heard that the person in charge of the Harrington family is now Yohan. Have you seen him?”
Emily asked tentatively.
“You know him?”
“I heard something about him.”
“I met him twice, but he didn’t want to say much. It’s not clear why he targets Marshall Group,” Troy
said.
“Yohan used to stay abroad before, and Imogen was close to him when she was studying abroad. I
think it might be because of Imogen…” Emily hinted at something.
“Impossible.” Troy firmly denied it.
Lane also spected that it might be because of Imogen, but Troy thought it was not the case.
If Yohan were particrly fond of Imogen, he would have had no contact with her in the past few
Chapter 291 The Wearer Knows Where the Shoe Pinches
years, nor would he suddenly attack an equally powerful group because of her.
However, Emily’s words made Troy suspicious. She seemed to know Imogen’s life abroad very
well.
Emily continued, “Yohan didn’t work in thepany before, and now he suddenly returns to take
power. There must be doubts in the Harrington family. He is also ambitious. He wants to transfer
the conflict to the outside to prove his strength. Next, he will not easily let go of Marshall Group. Be
careful.”
Yohan was just like his mother, scheming and always coveting things that didn’t belong to him. Troy
didn’t refute. “Okay, I understand.”
With that said, he hung up the phone.
Thinking of Emily’s words, Troy felt this was not the case.
Marshall Group was not a good choice for Yohan to establish his authority, which Yohan must
understand very well.
But why did Yohan do this?
It was a pyrrhic victory. Those projects suitable for Marshall Group may not be ideal for the
Harrington family. If the Harrington family took them away, due benefits would fail to be exerted,
and worse, their funds would be lost and in a dilemma.
Troy returned to thepany, and Lane came to report that Yohan forced the purchase of
Prosperity shares before Marshall Group.
Troy had expected it. “Continue to keep an eye on him and stoke them.”
Perhaps Yohan was still immersed in the joy of snatching Marshall Group’s project now, and what
awaited himter would be slowly revealed.
After Lane went out, Troy opened theputer and looked at the brand–new monitor in front of
him. He inevitably thought of Imogen and started to get angry in his heart.
After barely concentrating for a while, Troy picked up his cell phone and made a call.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Troy appeared in the club hall on time. He took an elevator up to a
private room, pushed the door open, and entered.
There was no one inside. Troy closed the door, sat on the sofa, took out a lighter, and lit a
cigarette.
About ten minutester, Sarah opened the door and came in. Troy was leaning on the sofa, with his
elbows on the armrest and a cigarette between his slender fingers.
He opened his lips lightly, and the smoke circled like a cloud.
Sarah nced at the cigarette butts in the ashtray, narrowed her eyes slightly, and her eyes
darkened.
He started smoking.
Sitting opposite Troy, she pretended to be ignorant and asked, “Troy, what do you want from me?”
