Chapter 241 Do You Want Me Dead?

Yann’s heart skipped a beat upon seeing this message. His hands trembled, and he nearly dropped his phone.

The veins on his forehead pulsed twice as he responded: [Ms. Forbes, please, don’t do this to me! You’ll get me in trouble!]

With Troy’s jealousy issues, they might end up in another boxing match if he found out about this. It happened last time at a restaurant in Norway. Imogen had innocently mentioned liking his personality within earshot of Troy. After returning home, Troy insisted on a friendly sparring several times. Troy claimed it was practice, but Yann only received punches repeatedly.

Yann couldn’t back out and had endured two sessions of Troy’s relentless punches. He still had the bruises to show for it.

Another boxing match was something he couldn’t handle.

Imogen: [It’s your fault! Otherwise, you guys would just keep treating me like a fool!]

Yann was confident that Imogen had figured things out, so he pretended: [I don’t understand what you’re saying.]

Imogen sent the recording directly to Yann: [Quit the act. If you want to keep things under wraps, don’t get involved in the first place.]

Yann began to ignore Imogen and didn’t respond for a long time upon hearing the recording. Imogen couldn’t help but chuckle.

Imogen: [Say something! Let the supplier and the Hale family resolve this normally! If you insist on going this way, I’ll compensate the Hale family myself.]

Yann: [Why go to such lengths?]

Imogen: [Why does Troy go to such lengths?]

Imogen: [Persistent as ever!]

Yann didn’t reply.

Imogen pressed the lock button, turned off her phone, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and couldn’t help but feel frustrated.

Imogen’s mood was like a continuous rainy day, with mold growing in the corners, creeping over the white walls.

She regretted falling for Troy. It led her down the wrong path and made a mess of her life.

Just a few days ago, she had maliciously suspected Blake of intentionally using inferior materials, only to discover that Blake had been wrongfully accused. It was her ex–husband who had instructed someone to target the Hale family!
