Chapter 286 Are You Investigating Me Again

Troy pursed his lips, stared at Imogen in the rearview mirror, and gritted his teeth as he asked, “Nothing to do with me?”

He had given her the chance to tell the truth.

She would rather take the risk of being retaliated than tell him the truth!

Was he so unworthy of her trust and reliance?

Did she not cherish her life at all?

She raised her eyes and saw him suppressing his anger. She ignored his dissatisfaction and said, “It really has nothing to do with you. Also, how did you know that I am investigating the kidnapping case? Are you investigating me again? We haven’t talked about you following me to Leeds City yet!”

Being retorted by her, he was so angry that he gripped the steering wheel more tightly with veins on his hands bulging. “I investigated you because you were threatened. I followed you to Leeds City because you were injured the night before, and I was worried. Now, I just want to help you!”

She smiled and said, “Troy, you did all this because you wanted me to give you something back. But I can’t give you the reward you want, so I won’t accept your help.”

He stared at her bitterly. “Is this how you think of me?”

In her eyes, he wanted to help her because, in this way, he could force her to be with him.

Therefore, she would rather be retaliated and risk losing her life like Ignacio than be with him.

She asked, “Was I wrong?”

Gloomy as he heard it, he responded with silence. He just kept driving in depression.

It was quiet and depressing in the car.

She put her hands in her pockets, leaned against the back of the seat, looked out the window in boredom, and didn’t say anything.

When they arrived at her apartment, he parked on the side of the road and stared at her through the rearview mirror in silence.

She tried to open the door, only to find it locked up. She turned to meet his eyes in the rearview mirror as if she didn’t sense his emotions. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Unlock the door.”

He unlocked it, and she pushed it open, got out of the car without saying anything, and entered the building.

He watched her walk away until she disappeared around the corner.

He turned back his eyes, stared gloomily at somewhere ahead, and suddenly slammed the steering wheel.

Charlie hadn’t rested yet. Seeing Imogen back home, she asked, “Is Grace sent away?”

“Yeah.” She put on her slippers, took off her coat, picked up the mug on the table, and poured herself a cup of coffee.
