Chapter 312.2 Remarriage (2)
Although Troy appeared to have genuine affection for her, and she appreciated his assistance in gaining leverage over Sarah, she had no intention of remarrying at this time….
Seeing her hesitation, Troy had expected it, but he couldn’t help feeling somewhat disappointed. However, he wasn’t very disappointed since his intention was to use the notion of remarriage to dissuade her.
If she actually agreed, it would complicate things for him since he couldn’t disclose the true. situation to her.
“Have you decided?” Troy asked. “I’ll give you three minutes to think. If you don’t agree within three minutes, even if you agree to the deal later, it will be null and void.”
Imogen raised her eyes in surprise and glared at Troy. “Troy, did you never intend to tell me from the beginning?!”
“Of course not,” Troy smiled. “Why would you think that? Didn’t you date Erik for certain information before? What’s different now?”
Imogen’s face became tense, and she looked away, avoiding eye contact. “It’s not the same.”
“What’s different?” Troy asked earnestly.
He got angry just thinking about it.
Imogen looked down, feeling guilty. “I did it to get revenge for my father.”
And, honestly, she was able to use Erik rationally because she didn’t actually like him.
But it was different with Troy.
She didn’t dare.
She couldn’t marry Troy again just because of these supposed pieces of leverage.
“For the sole purpose of seeking revenge for your father, would you agree to anything? Imogen, your late father would not want to see you in this state, and I believe he would want you to live a good life.”
Imogen nodded meekly and replied, “Yes.”
“Thankfully, you found out early and broke up with Erik without much trouble. But have you imagined what could have happened if things didn’t go smoothly?”
“Then I’ll just have to figure something out.”
Imogen’s voice grew quieter, and she cautiously raised her gaze, meeting Troy’s eyes. The last few words became a mere murmur.
Troy’s face turned slightly red. “I remember when you said you liked Erik, and asked me not to bother you anymore because he was handsome, optimistic, and ambitious, didn’t you?” Imogen’s face became even more flushed, and she blinked her eyes, trying to come up with an excuse. “I was afraid people would suspect something, so I acted more convincin
“You even said you’d use the money I gave you to help him. You asked me not to take myself too seriously.”
She was caught red–handed.
Imogen wanted to disappear at this moment. “Those were only jokes, just jokes.” “Heh, you knew about it already. And on Christmas Eve when I asked you to break up
with Erik,

you still refused. If I hadn’t coerced and persuaded you, who knows, you might still be with
him…”
Imogen blushed and avoided eye contact with Troy. She responded, “No, I planned to end things with him before you arrived. Your sudden arrival interrupted my plans.”
“So you changed your mind? Imogen Forbes, did you intentionally use him to provoke me?” Imogen closed her mouth abruptly.
She said something she wasn’t supposed to reveal.
She shook her head in denial. “No, of course not…”
She didn’t use Erik to provoke him. Instead, she wanted Erik to act as a shield and make him back. off.
“Ah.”
Troy looked at her with a solemn expression.
Imogen was silent.
His intense stare made her shiver.
It was so frustrating.
Imogen cleared her throat and said, “I need more time to think about the condition you mentioned. Three minutes isn’t enough.”
“So, you are considering remarriage with me?”
“…No.”
“Then why don’t you just refuse?”
Imogen was silent again.
She breathed out shortly and looked at Troy from the side. “Perhaps you and Sarah worked together to lie to me, and there isn’t anything there!”
“You can think like that if you want.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Imogen felt annoyed and made a face.
He didn’t even want to tell her!
Troy raised his eyes and looked at her, saying, “Imogen, there are some things that are better for you not to know. I don’t want you to write a pardon letter for Sarah just because of this.”
Releasing the killer, Sarah, without any repercussions.
Certainly, even if she wrote a pardon letter, it would only apply to this particular occurrence.
The facts of her father’s condition would surface soon, and Sarah would have nowhere to run.
He didn’t want these bad things to affect her.
Right now, she was doing well and has a clear goal and hobbies that suited her.
“I’m not stupid,” Imogen replied.
