Chapter 4: His First Love

Imogen‘ s sobs echoed inside the car. She tightly held her phone as she felt her chest tighten in pain.

She connected the dots. Her husband took Sarah to meet his friends when he arrived in New

York.

All of his friends knew and supported them.

Only she was kept in the dark.

After all, only the Marshall family knew about their marriage.

Troy had never introduced Imogen to his friends as his wife. Even though they would meet them

at parties or events, everybody just assumed that Imogen was the adopted daughter of the

Marshalls.

The driver arrived at the garage and saw Imogen’s car, he got confused and tried to check on

her.

Imogen hurriedly wiped her cheeks. Pretending she didn’t hear him, she started the engine and drove out of the house.

After a while, Imogen arrived at the office, calm and poised. She never mixed her personal dilemmas with work.

This time, she could only pour her whole attention to her job.

Imogen read Troy‘ s email. Then, she copied the file of the plan and sent it to him.
