Chapter 252 Ex–Husband’s Approval

Imogen’s silence fueled Troy’s anger further. His expression grew even gloomier. “I was right,

wasn’t I?”

Imogen cast her eyes downward and struggled to explain. Her tone was hesitant as she spoke, “Well, it’s not exactly… It’s just that…”

Troy was waiting for her to answer. He had never thought of her preference for Erik.

“What is it?” He ground his teeth and repeated.

Imogen felt uneasy. However, she remained defiant, stared at Troy, and said, “It’s nothing. You guessed it right. I prefer him. He confessed to me, and I agreed. It’s as simple as that. Do I have to consider my ex–husband’s feelings while I’m single and dating?”

Troy continued to glare at Imogen. His anger was escalating.

He appeared to have completely lost his temper. Suddenly, Troy forcefully pulled the covers away, exposing Imogen’s naked form. A cunning smile slowly formed on his lips. “You look so beautiful. Do you think Erik will break

Imogen tried to resist, but her hands were effortlessly held above her head, rendering her unable to resist as his other hand explored her gentle contours.

“Mmm…”

Troy’s violent kiss silenced Imogen’s protests. Her breathing became rapid. She struggled to breathe as she couldn’t use her mouth to help with breathing.

Imogen started gasping for air. Her brain became hazy, and everything seemed blank.

Troy sensed that Imogen had stopped struggling. He let go of her lips and looked at her. She looked pale, her breathing was weak, her pupils dilated, and she seemed on the brink of passing

Alarmed, he felt his heart tighten. He immediately grasped her chin and started giving her mouth–to–mouth resuscitation.
