Chapter 41 I Donât Like Her
Imogen felt her heart twinge as she noticed Sarah by Troyâs side. She quickly looked away and reached out to touch Charlie, seeking comfort.
Charlie also spotted them standing not far away, and her smile immediately vanished, replaced by a disdainful expression.
Approaching them, they exchanged greetings. âHello, Troy,â Imogen said with a nod.
Imogen was supposed to meet Troy, but then she saw him with Sarah.
âImogen, Charlie,â Sarah appeared surprised and hurriedly explained, âIâm sorry, I didnât know Troy and Iâ¦â
Troy observed Sarahâs cautious expression and recalled her gentle and calm demeanor when they first met, which now seemed lost due to her knowledge of his marriage. He felt a pang of sorrow
for her.
Imogen interrupted, saying, âItâs alright, Sarah. We understand. Letâs take a walk and leave you
two be.â
Imogen tried to lead Charlie away, but Charlie remained rooted and commented with a smile, âSarah, your makeup looks stunning today. Who did it for you?â
Sarah looked puzzled and replied, âI did it myself.â
âImpressive! Your makeup skills might even rival Miss Miraâs, donât you think?â Charlie remarked, but there was an undercurrent of sarcasm in her tone.
Sarahâs face stiffened, and she forced a smile, pulling at the corner of her lips.
âIf you believe your aesthetics are flawless, be careful not to dismiss othersâ opinions. Blind confidence can lead to mistakes, and you might end up blaming others for it,â Charlie continued, seemingly enjoying her discomfort.
Sarah turned pale and bit her lower lip, feeling the weight of Charlieâs words.
Charlie finally turned away, taking Imogenâs hand as they walked off together, leaving Sarah behind with her thoughts.
Imogen was well aware that Troyâs heart belonged to Sarah, not her. As Troyâs words reached her ears, she felt an agonizing pain, as if her heart was being torn apart, cracked into pieces, and left bleeding on the ground.
Troy had once promised to get a divorce certificate after his business trip, but upon his return, the topic was never mentioned again, and Imogen silently hoped to prolong the marriage, even wishing that Troy would forget about it altogether. However, she knew deep down that such fantasies were futile. Troy might not remember now, but eventually, reality would catch up, and they would have to face the inevitable.
She had once wondered if Troy would have loved her if it werenât for Sarah, but now she knew the painful truth â even without Sarah, Troy wouldnât have loved her. She was just another person to him, replaceable and insignificant.
As she stood lost in her thoughts, a salesperson approached her, offering a card that had fallen. Imogen thanked them and then decided to leave. She walked out of the store, and Troy noticed her departure, feeling a twinge of discomfort in his heart.
âTroy, what are you looking at?â Sarah asked, noticing his distant gaze.
âItâs nothing,â Troy replied, shaking his head, unsure of his own emotions.

Imogen took a deep breath, clutching the black card in her hand, and approached Charlie. âCharlie, letâs go somewhere else.â
The two of them continued their shopping spree on the fourth floor, buying bags and jewelry. After strolling around, they found a restaurant on the fifth floor for lunch and later watched a movie on the sixth floor. They spent the afternoon together until the evening when they had. dinner together.
Amidst the laughter and distractions, Imogen tried to mask the pain in her heart, cherishing the time she could spend with Charlie, her true companion and source of comfort.
Marieâs request, they decided to have a hot pot for dinner. As Imogen washed the meat slices, her mind wandered off, causing her to accidentally spill some hot soup onto her hand. Strangely, she seemed numb to the pain.
âImogen, Imogen! Why are you so careless?â Charlie hurriedly grabbed napkins to help her clean
A red burn mark appeared on the back of Imogenâs hand.
âDoes it hurt? Should we go to the hospital?â Charlie asked, concerned.
Imogen smiled and shook her head. âItâs alright, Iâll just apply some ointment when we get back. Perplexed, Charlie muttered, âWhatâs bothering you?â
âJust got lost in my thoughts for a moment. Iâll go get some cold water to rinse it in the restroom,â Imogen replied calmly.
In the restroom, while rinsing her red burn with cold water, she caught sight of someone standing beside her in the mirror. Ignoring them, she continued with her task.
âImogen, I wanted to talk to you about Troy,â Sarah spoke with a smile.
âWhat is it that you want to discuss? You can tell me,â Imogenâs expression remained neutral. âI found out a few days ago that heâs already married to you,â Sarah revealed.
Imogen couldnât help but chuckle lightly at Sarahâs claim that she had just learned about her marriage to Troy. She knew that Ylah Willy had been targeting her from the beginning of their cooperation, with the clear intention of provoking her. Their rivalry as partners wouldnât benefit her unless there was more significant underlying interest.
Sarahâs face stiffened, but she continued, âSo, are you planning to leave him?â
Imogen maintained her composure and replied, âWhy does it matter to you? But no, I donât plan on leaving him. And whatâs the point of talking to me about this? Do you want me to back off?â
Sarah tried to regain her composure and smiled, saying, âImogen, donât be so defensive. Our relationship canât be summed up in just a few words.â
Imogen smiled back, dismissing the idea, âI have no interest in knowing anything about your relationship.â
Sarah persisted, âNo, youâre just afraid to face the reality of Troy and me. Youâre the follower while we are partners, walking together through college, transitioning from youth to maturity, and supporting each other through difficulties. The strong bond we share is something you canât understand.â
