Chapter 225 This Is the Last Time

Troy’s eyes were empty and out of focus as if he was pondering something.

He turned around and looked at Imogen. His high eyebrows cast sharp shadows on his eye sockets. His eyes contained some kind of sexual implication.

Imogen was shy and annoyed. She stared back coldly.

Instead of being angry, Troy smiled softly.

He smiled brightly, but it made Imogen feel worried.

She hastily changed the subject and asked, “Grace, do you have any winter homework?”

Grace raised his head and blinked. “Yes, but those are too simple.”

Imogen said, “All right.”

Grace asked, “Uncle Troy, do I need to go home now? I also want to go to the reception.” Grace looked up at Troy and shook Troy’s arm.

Troy said, “Grace, you are a good girl. I will take you home first, and I will bring you donuts when I come back.”

Grace refused, “I don’t want to eat donuts. I want to go to the reception.”

Troy replied, “No.”

Grace said, “I hate you!” Grace turned away with a puffy face, moved toward Imogen, and hugged her. “Imogen, I still want to sleep with you at night.”

Imogen almost said yes.

She hesitated for a few seconds and declined, “Grace, I may come back late tonight. Could you sleep alone?”

Grace insisted on her thoughts and said, “I can wait for you.”

Imogen added, “But I came back too late and couldn’t take care of you.”

Grace said, “I can take care of myself. I can wash my face and brush my teeth, and I can also undress myself. If you come back too late, I will go to bed first!”

Imogen did not know what to say.

Seeing Imogen’s silence, Grace turned down the corners of her mouth and looked at her pitifully, “Imogen, do you not like me anymore? Do you think I’m annoying?”

Looking at her big and watery eyes, Imogen could not bear to see Grace feeling sad, and she quickly said, do like you very much.”
