Chapter 81 He Is in Good Shape

At eight o’clock in the evening, Troy messaged Imogen: [Have you had dinner? Why aren’t you coming over?]

Imogen checked the message and then turned off the screen.

After a moment, her phone vibrated again, indicating another message.

Imogen picked up her phone and saw Troy say in the message: [Reply to my message immediately.

Or I’ll come to your room right now.]

Imogen smiled as she typed back: [I’m not going tonight.]

[Why? Why did you ignore me earlier?]

[I didn’t see your message earlier. And I’m feeling tired tonight, so I don’t want to go.]

That was an excuse.

It was obvious.

[Imogen, tell me the truth. Why?]

[I was telling the truth. I need to rest.]

After sending this message, Imogen held her phone and waited for a while, but Troy didn’t reply.

She then put her phone down and lay on her bed, preparing to sleep. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, causing Imogen to startle.

She had a gut feeling that the person knocking on the door was Troy.

Mia’s bed was outside, so she slid on her slippers and walked to the door, asking, “Who is it?”

“It’s me.” A deep voice sounded through the door panel. “I need to talk to Imogen. Please ask her to

come out.”

“Oh, okay,” Mia responded immediately and called to Imogen, “Ms. Forbes, Mr. Marshall is looking for

you. Come out and meet him.”

Imogen didn’t expect Troy to come.

Imogen had no choice but to get up from her bed, put on her slippers, and go out. She closed the door behind her after walking out.

She looked at Troy and asked, “Why did you come here? Do you need anything from me?”

“You tell me,” Troy stared at her and said.

Just as Imogen was about to speak, Troy interrupted her, “Don’t use those excuses to evade me. Tell me why. Are you in a bad mood?”

“There’s no reason. Please don’t ask anymore.”

“Did you watch Sarah’s variety show?”

Imogen remained silent.

“You’re jealous, aren’t you?”

“There’s no such thing. It’s not because of that. Don’t make wild guesses. How could I possibly be jealous? I don’t even like you,” Imogen denied.

When Troy heard the last sentence, his expression changed. “Imogen, are you now trying to go against your promise to my grandpa?”

Imogen whispered, “No…”

Troy took her hand and asked, “Then why are you sulking by yourself? I hope you can tell me the truth, whatever happens in the future. Don’t evade. Positive communication is the right way to handle things. Otherwise, the distance between us will only grow wider.

“I’ll ask you again, did you get jealous because you knew I taught her German and told her stories after you watched Sarah’s variety show?”

“No,” Imogen bit her lip and denied it.

Troy could tell that she was saying one thing but meaning another.

Imogen didn’t want to admit that she was jealous.

“Imogen, you can’t redirect your anger at me because of my past. My past is there, and it can’t be erased. I’m not forcing you to accept it all, but you must understand that the past can’t be changed. What matters is the future. If I choose to be with you and not divorce you, what does it matter that I had taught her German?”

Imogen lowered her head, pursed her lips, and remained silent.

“Do you want to go to the hot spring?”

Seeing Imogen keep silent, Troy continued, “If you want to, go back to your room and pack your things to go to my room. Don’t worry. Today is the last night here. I’ll drive you away tomorrow morning. And no one will know.”

Imogen turned back to her room silently and started packing her things.

“Ms. Forbes, are you leaving?” Mia asked in confusion.

“Yes, there’s something I need to take care of first,” Imogen replied calmly.

“Okay. I hope everything goes well.”

“Thank you.”

After packing her things, Imogen headed to Room 0104.

Sitting comfortably in the hot spring, Imogen sighed in relief.

It felt so good.

Troy also joined her in the hot spring pool.

Before dawn the following day, Troy woke Imogen up. “Let’s go. You can sleep in the car.”

The employees were still at the hot spring resort today.

Although Imogen had returned early, she didn’t need to go to work. She went home to sleep until she naturally woke up.

While looking through her phone, she remembered the photo she had taken with Troy. It was a good time to post it.

Imogen edited an Instagram post: [Boyfriend.]

She paired it with the photo of her and Troy, visible to everyone on Instagram.

Shortly after, Imogen was notified that Troy liked her instagram post.

Though Imogen’s friends were puzzled by her showing off her boyfriend without showing his face, they still left congratulatory comments.

Charlie directly messaged Imogen: Imogen, what’s going on? Tell me!]

Imogen replied: [Just what you see. I’m dating a man. But it’s not guaranteed to work out.]

[Oh my goodness! Imogen, where did you find this guy? His physique is impressive. Look at his chest muscles. That’s amazing!]

[Don’t drool all over the place!]

[Can you take him out to meet us?]

[Not for now. Maybe there’s a chance in the future.]

When Liam saw this Instagram post, he was stunned for a long time and couldn’t calm down.

He had thought Imogen was single all this time and still had a chance, but he didn’t expect someone else to beat him to her.

Liam texted Imogen: When did you start dating? Your boyfriend has a great physique.]

Imogen sighed. She regretted making the post visible to everyone. She just wanted to annoy Sarah, but now everyone was asking.

[Yeah. He is in good shape.]

[When can we have a chance to meet him?]

[Not for now. We’ll see in the future.]

[Okay.] Liam’s heart was filled with hope after he read Imogen’s reply.

Since Imogen didn’t want to introduce her boyfriend to her friends, it meant their relationship was unstable, and they might break up at any time.

Liam asked: [When are you visiting me in the set?]

[1 actually have some free time recently. Which day works for you?]

[Tomorrow would be good.]

[Tomorrow? Okay!]

When Sarah came across this Instagram post after finishing her shooting, she was filled with

anger.

Others might not recognize it, but she knew the man in the photo was definitely Troy!

“Bitch! Imogen must be provoking me!” She thought.

Imogen must have seen the Instagram Sarah posted that night, so she used this method to fight

back!

Sarah thought this Instagram post was probably visible only to her.

After thinking for a moment, Sarah decided to give Troy a call.

In the last few seconds of the ringing, Troy finally answered, “Hello, Sarah.”

Sarah asked hesitantly, “Troy, did you see Imogen’s Instagram?”

“Yes.”

Sarah was taken aback. Could it be that the Instagram post wasn’t visible only to her?

“Then… Is the man in the photo you?”

“Yeah. It is me.”

Just as Sarah was about to ask more questions, Troy said, “Don’t overthink about it. Someone at the company was pursuing Imogen, and she mentioned she had a boyfriend. That guy didn’t believe her, so she had to prove it.”

Sarah’s words got stuck in her throat when Troy cut her off, and she couldn’t say anything in

response.

Seeing Troy defending Imogen, Sarah was on the verge of exploding with anger.

She couldn’t believe Imogen to be so cunning.

Not only did she manage to get Troy willingly take intimate photos with her and allow her to post them on Instagram, but she acted innocent and had Troy speak up for her.

That was entirely designing.

If Imogen’s intention behind all this was to disgust Sarah, then she had succeeded. Sarah was indeed thoroughly disgusted by it.
