Chapter 39.1 Cold War

The car drove into the hospital, and Troy found a parking space to stop. With ease, he located the psychologist’s consultation room and knocked on the door before entering.

“Mr. Marshall, you’re here. Miss Page’s diagnosis is over today, and the situation has not improved. Instead, it has become even more serious. I just gave her a sedative, and she fell asleep,” the psychologist informed Troy.

Troy listened with a solemn expression and replied, “I see.”

“Mr. Marshall, I hope you can take this matter to heart. Miss Page’s condition has greatly improved before, but she has suddenly taken a sharp turn in the past two days, and the situation is very bad. It may turn into severe depression, which will be difficult to handle at that time.”

“Okay,” Troy nodded, feeling a sense of responsibility for Sarah’s well–being.

He walked to her bedside and looked at Sarah’s pale face, feeling particularly guilty in his heart; He couldn’t forget the time when she was a gentle and lively girl, and how her condition changed due to him, leading to her mental illness and personality changes. She had even attempted suicide several times. He couldn’t afford to disappoint her now.

Troy sat on a stool by the bed, silently contemplating the situation.

After some time, Sarah woke up in a daze and asked, “Troy, is that you? Am I dreaming? Why are you here?”

“Sarah, it’s me. I’ve come to see you,” Troy replied with a gentle smile.

She looked up at him with a gentle expression and requested, “Troy, could you take a leave tomorrow? Could you accompany me to go shopping?”

“Of course,” he agreed without hesitation, wanting to support her in any way he could.

After returning from the police station, Imogen continued to work.

Charlene had been keeping an eye on her, observing Imogen returning alone. This brought a sense of satisfaction to Charlene.

Meanwhile, Imogen received a call from her grandmother. She called to check on Imogen.

“How is my Imogen? Did you go to yesterday’s charity dinner? How did you feel?” Her grandmother inquired.

Imogen smiled and replied, “It was great, and the desserts inside were very delicious.” The old lady chuckled and teasingly said, “You just knew how to eat dessert, but didn’t you ask Troy to get you a piece of jewelry or something?”

“Troy gave me a bracelet, it looks very nice,” Imogen shared with excitement.

“Okay, okay. Bring it back for Grandma to see when you have time. This stinky boy might be quite thoughtful,” the old lady said happily, gnaware that Sarah had also attended the charity dinner. “Certainly,” Imogen agreed with a smile.

“By the way, Imogen, I have two tickets for the Grand Theater in my hand. It’s for tomorrow night, and the famous Eryc Taylor Dance Troupe is in town for a tour. Someone gave them to me, but I don’t really care about it. Why don’t you go see it with Troy? You young people will definitely like it,” the old lady suggested kindly.

“This…” It goes without saying that this is the second attempt at matchmaking by the old lady. Imogen doesn’t know whether this is a good idea or not.

When the old lady sensed Imogen’s hesitation, she immediately said, “Don’t worry, I’ll personally talk to Troy. How dare he refuse?”

“Okay.” Imogen gave a short answer. The old lady told some random things before hanging the phone.

When Imogen returned to the office, she received a message from Troy telling her to wait for him. after work. She was still pissed off because of what happened a while ago. She gave Troy a simple okay as her answer.
