Chapter 145 Ninety–nine Things a Father–to–be Should Know

Three days later, Imogen was discharged from the hospital.

Troy carried her into the car. When they arrived at the villa, he carried her all the way to the main bedroom, not letting her feet touch the ground.

Two days later, she removed the gauze on her face.

The swelling on her face was gone, with only three dark red scabs left.

One of them was at the cheekbones, very close to the eye.

She placed the flowers in front of the tomb, stretched out her fingers, and lightly stroked the words on the tombstone, her eyes filled with tears.

“I dreamed of you not long ago. I dreamed that in the small courtyard of my hometown, I was doing homework under the tree, and you were preparing food in the kitchen…”

“I wish I could stay in the dream forever and watch you grow old…”

Standing behind her, Troy watched her doing all this.

He understood that she had grown up in a single–parent family and was extremely dependent on

her father.
