Chapter 128 Get a Divorce From Him

By convention, they would have lunch at the Marshall villa before heading to the cemetery on the

outskirts.

The lunch was abundant, and the atmosphere at the table was lively.

Witty remarks from Wesley, often made everyone burst into laughter.

When Imogen Watched Fu Rui’s adorable appearance, there was a hint of a smile in Imogen’s cool

eyes.

She wondered what the child inside her would look like when born, hoping that the child would be as cute and carefree as Wesley.

On the opposite side of the dining table, Troy’s gaze met Imogen’s, and Imogen couldn’t help but feel a slight hesitation in her composed expression. She discreetly put down her fork and excused herself to the restroom.

After washing her hands and returning from the restroom, she saw someone standing at the

entrance.

Clad in a dark gray trench coat, shirt, trousers, and leather shoes, when viewed from behind, the figure stood tall and straight like a pine tree.

Imogen’s steps hesitated.

If it hadn’t been for the person holding an unfinished cigarette in his hand, she might have mistaken him for Troy. Troy didn’t smoke.

Troy didn’t smoke.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Leo turned his head slightly.

“Leo.” Imogen greeted Leo with a smile, “Sneaking out for a smoke?”

Leo helplessly extinguished the cigarette butt. “Agnes doesn’t allow me to smoke at home.”

“She cares about you.” Imogen replied.

“Yeah, I only smoke occasionally. Don’t tell her,” Leo said.

“Okay, I’ll pretend I didn’t see it.” Leo and his wife are affectionate, and Imogen won’t interfere too much. “Then I’ll go back first.”

“Wait!” Leo called out to Imogen.
