Chapter 44 Let’s Have a Child

“I want to renegotiate the divorce agreement with you. Come to the study,” Troy said calmly.

“Okay,” Imogen replied.

Imogen put the towel back, followed Troy out, closed the door, and walked to the study.

In the study, Troy found the electronic version of the original divorce agreement and added a few new contents. He made space in front of the screen for Imogen to see. “Come and take a look at the changes I’ve made,” he said.

Imogen leaned forward and examined the redlined content on the screen.

The first new rule stated that both parties would not leave the home after divorce. They were required to continue living together at Midtown Villa even after obtaining the divorce certificate. The second rule demanded that Imogen help Troy conceal their divorce from his parents. If necessary, she had to accompany him as a husband and wife to the old house, pretending to maintain a married appearance until his parents were aware of the divorce.

Article 2 stated that both parties were forbidden from discussing their past marriage or divorce outside of their home.

Article 3 specified that while living together at Midtown Villa, neither party was allowed to invite other men or women to spend the night there.

Another significant change was in the division of property. Initially, Imogen was entitled to 20 million dollars, two villas, and two luxury cars. Now, the agreement had been modified to give her 50 million dollars, along with two villas and two luxury cars.

Imogen reviewed each newly added item and expressed her objections. “I have concerns about the first item. The agreement states that we have to continue living in Midtown Villa until our grandparents know about the divorce. What if they never find out? Does that mean we’re forced to stay together forever? And you can’t openly be with Sarah. What’s the point of getting divorced.

then?”

Troy responded, “We can add a time constraint to it.”

Imogen calculated the time and proposed, “Within two months of the divorce, we must inform our grandparents about our separation. After that period, we are free to move to another place and live separately.”

Troy’s eyes darkened as he reluctantly agreed, “Okay.”

Two months later, she would be in a hurry to leave this place. She wondered if she should feel hatred towards him in her heart.
