Chapter 21: Mixed Feelings

The driver glanced at Troy through the rearview mirror and then watched him as he gazed out of the window. “Isn’t she the ‘madam?” he questioned.

“Who is the man beside her?” he inquired further.

The man, wearing a cap and a mask, attracted attention as he entered the studio surrounded by a crowd.

It seems like that man has a good rapport with the boss.

In a hushed tone, the driver informed, “Sir, Sarah is not here.”

Troy merely responded with a thoughtful sound, “hmm.”

The driver was uncertain about what he wanted to say.

“Troy instructed them to drive the car to the studio’s entrance,” the driver relayed.

Did she notice them when he pulled up to the studio’s door?

Despite his reservations, the driver complied with Troy’s request and drove the car to the studio’s

entrance.

Liam raised his chin and inquired, “Is that your Troy?”

When Imogen followed his gaze, she saw a black Cayenne parked at the building’s entrance. The license plate number was the one Troy used.

Sarah stood by the car.

Troy intentionally got out of the car and had a conversation with Sarah, leaving her unaware of the details. Sarah responded with a joyful smile.

Subsequently, Troy turned and opened the car door for Sarah from the other side. As she got in, he moved to the back seat.

The driver departed.

He went out of his way to pick up Sarah.

Imogen’s heart was filled with profound sadness and bitterness.

Liam, however, seemed disinterested. “Recently, my agency has been working on a play. People Say that Sarah has already been hired to play the female role. The project is being funded by Star Entertainment Investment, a branch of Marshall Group of Companies. Troy has been providing generous financial support to his girlfriend. I heard that Xena originally had McKesson’s backing.” Imogen forced a smile, her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves, leaving crescent–shaped marks on her palms from her nails.
