Chapter 70 Don’t Distance Yourself From Me Anymore

Imogen froze for a moment and exchanged a glance with Troy. She smiled at Layla and said, ‘Grandma, I forgot to bring it this time. I promise I’ll bring it for

you next time.”

Agnes chimed in, “Is it the Ocean Heart from the Eventbrite Charity Dinner? I’ve heard about it, but I couldn’t attend that night. I didn’t expect that it would be taken by Troy and given to Imogen. Imogen, you have to bring it out sometime and let me have a look.”

Although she could muddle through in front of Layla, she didn’t expect that Agnes would speak up. Then things might not be easy to handle.

‘What do you mean by letting you have a look? Leo, isn’t that unfair? How can you make sister–in–law envious? Leo, you should get one for her too. I heard the raw material of the Ocean Heart is quite big. They must have made a lot of bracelets out of it, and this one is just a test piece. for the owner,” Imogen said.

“Really?” Agnes’s attention shifted as Imogen intervened.

Imogen nodded. “Of course it’s true.”

Agnes glanced at Leo.

Leo smiled helplessly. “Alright, alright, I’ll have someone keep an eye out for it. Once there’s news, we’ll intercept it.”

“That’s more like it.”

“Leo is really good to Agnes.” Imogen looked at their interaction and couldn’t help but envy them from the bottom of her heart.

“And Troy is also very good to you,” Agnes said, “He casually buys bracelets worth tens of millions. of dollars without any

hesitation.”

Imogen curled her lip and nodded in agreement but didn’t say anything further.

Imogen thought, “Troy is indeed generous with me when it comes to money. But he’s equally generous with Sarah. If there is only one item, it will definitely belong to Sarah. Only what Sarah – doesn’t want will belong to me, just like the piece of cake he casually threw at me. I am always settling for second best, always the plan B.”

Troy had remained silent all this time, watching Imogen forcibly put on a smile in front of Layla and his sister–in–law to help smooth things over. He felt an indescribable sensation in his heart. The bracelet wasn’t with her at all. Where could she find one to show to Grandma?

Before long, Henry’s spirit waned, and he started dozing off. The assistants and maids helped him upstairs to rest.

Layla said to them, “If you have anything to do, you can leave now. You don’t have to stay here all the time, circling around us. If there is any situation concerning Henry, I will give you a call. It’s the same as usual. Just come visit on weekends.”

“Alright, Grandma, we’ll leave first,” Leo said.

“Okay, go ahead.”

“Wesley, say goodbye to your Great–grandma and your uncle and aunt.”
