Chapter 56 Dance With Me

Chapter 56 Dance With Me

“In the face of evidence, Diego and Landon had no choice but to admit that they had premeditated their actions. The police have decided to bring criminal charges against them. However, considering their level of harm, the sentencing probably won’t be too severe,” the police officer explained.

Imogen was quite curious. “Why did they know my license plate number and my whereabouts?”

The police officer said, “Diego works as a mechanic at a certain car dealership. He admitted that you had your car repaired there. Landon had someone tailing you, and he got your information from a friend.”

“Okay, I see.”

“Diego and Landon’s family members want to meet you, hoping to get your forgiveness as the victim. What do you think?”

“I won’t meet them. I don’t need any compensation from them. I’ll push for a heavier sentence.” “Understood.”

“Thank you, goodbye. Let me know if there’s any news.”

After hanging up the phone, Troy glanced at Imogen. “I’ve assigned Lucas to handle this matter. They will pay for their actions.”

Lucas Tinsley was a specially hired attorney who worked for Marshall Group’s legal department. He was the top lawyer in New York City and had hardly any cases he didn’t win.

“Thanks.”

“Don’t mention it.”

The upscale restaurant was beautifully decorated, and the soothing sound of piano music filled

the air.

Seated in a cozy spot, a waiter handed them each a menu.

Troy opened the menu and began reading it aloud. After a short while, Imogen interrupted, “Are we ordering so much for dinner? Can we finish all of this?”

“I’m reading it for you,” Troy narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Can you see clearly now?”

Imogen caught on and smiled back. “I’m not blind. It’s just a bit blurry, but I can still read the

text.”

Taking advantage of the moment, the waiter enthusiastically introduced, “Sir, Miss, we have a popular couple’s set menu that’s very cost–effective. Many couples loved to choose it. You can give it a try!”

Imogen hesitated for a moment and then nodded. “Sure, we’ll have that.”

Troy seemed to smile slightly. Then, he asked casually, “How’s your eyesight improving?”

“It’s getting a bit better. I can see things more clearly now.”

“What about reading the documents on your phone?”

Imogen shook her head. “If I look at them for too long, I’ll get a headache. Is there anything urgent

at work?”

“No,” Troy lowered his gaze and said, “Just take a few more days to rest.”

“Alright.” Imogen glanced around. “This restaurant has a nice ambiance. The pianist is playing

“It’s Adelina on the Waterfront, composed by Paolo Seneviratne.”

Imogen looked at him in surprise. “You know music too?”
