Chapter 5: Not Divorce?

Imogen felt her entire body tremble. Tears blurred her vision as she heaved a series of heavy sighs. Bitterness and pain hit her, wave after wave.

She had never seen Troy this gentle and happy before. He had always been stoic and quiet with her for the past three years.

Imogen comforted herself by thinking that it was just simply his nature. Always quiet and indifferent.

She lied even to herself.

Now, she witnessed that all her beliefs about Troy weren’t true. He could be gentle and caring, but only for a different woman.

The two passed by her car They didn’t even notice that it was Imogen‘ s. Not even Troy.

“Mrs. Marshall, you‘ re home. Do you want anything for dinner?” The servant politely asked. Her smile faded when she noticed the traces of tears on Imogen’s face.

Her question, however, fell on deaf ears. Imogen moved like a robot, walking toward her bedroom in a daze.

As soon as she closed the door, Imogen leaned on the wall and slid to the floor. She had lost all of her strength.

She couldn’t hold it in anymore. Tears flowed down her cheeks again. She tightly clasped her chest, feeling the pain spread from her heart to her entire body.

She went through so much in her life. Her parents divorced when she was young, so she knew how hard it was to have a broken family. The last thing she wanted for her baby was to have the same life she had.

She wanted her child to grow up in a complete and happy family.

But what could she do now?

After an hour, the maid softly knocked on the bedroom door. “Miss Imogen, your dinner is ready.”

Imogen closed her eyes. She cleared her throat and muttered, “Thanks. I’ll be out soon.” Then, she went to the bathroom to wash her face.

She was wiping her face with a towel when she suddenly remembered Troy’s message.

“The gift…” she whispered. She wondered what gift he had bought her.
