Chapter 245 Hunger Strike

After bringing lunch back to the hospital ward, Imogen set out all the boxes of food on the table. Grace excitedly plopped down on the sofa and began to pick out dishes that she liked, saying, “I want this one and that one…”

Imogen glanced at Troy and asked calmly, “What do you want to eat? Or should I make a platter for you?”

Troy shook his head. “No need. I can’t eat.”

Imogen sneered and questioned in annoyance, “You can’t eat? Then why did Yann say you’ve been on a hunger strike because of what I said? He said you haven’t eaten anything for a whole day.” For a moment, Troy was surprised. A look of helplessness crept onto his pale face. “This is… I don’t know… Are you going to blame me for whatever he did…”

Imogen didn’t reply.

“Geez, him and his antics,” she thought.

She closed her eyes, deciding to keep him out of her mind by keeping him out of sight.

As they ate lunch, Troy sat next to them, working on his laptop.

After lunch, Imogen tidied up the table.

Just then, there was a beeping noise on the intercom by the door.

“Mr. Marshall?”

Imogen stepped forward and opened the door, seeing two middle–aged men standing outside. Behind them were two young people, each carrying a basket of fruits and some gifts. Imogen was taken aback for a moment before nodding politely. “Mr. Fox, Mr. Holland.” The two men, Jarvis Fox and Steve Holland, looked at Imogen and paused for a moment upon seeing her, though they didn’t overtly show their surprise.

“Ms. Forbes, is Mr. Marshall here?”

“He’s inside. Please come in.” Imogen stepped aside to let them in.

Grace was sitting on the sofa, staring at Jarvis and Steve with wide, curious eyes. “Hello, Misters, nice to meet you!”
