Chapter 99 Apology

The sky was getting dark, and the shops on both sides of the road, as well as the tall buildings, had already lit up, brightly illuminating the surroundings.

Imogen could understand Troy’s intentions and knew that he genuinely wanted to make it her now.

But to her, Sarah’s existence was like a ticking time bomb, always making her anxious.

up

to

She couldn’t be sure what Troy would choose the next time Sarah tried to interfere, even if he promised not to meet Sarah alone..

Imogen thought that unless Sarah completely left, they would never be able to return to the things were.

way

Troy watched Imogen’s reaction, tightly holding her hand.

He would prove through his actions that he genuinely wanted to spend his life with her.

The two first went to have a meal before heading to the club.

The car drove into the underground parking lot of the club.

Troy and Imogen got out, one after another, making their way to their usual box.

Inside, the room was dimly lit, and Troy’s friends were talking.

Troy pushed the door open.

Everyone’s eyes turned to them.

Seeing them, Hector said with a smile, “Troy, that’s not fair of you. None of us brought a female companion. Why did you bring Ms. Page here? Showing off to us?”

Imogen took a step back, half of her being shielded by Troy.

Due to the bright corridor and dim room, Hector didn’t see Imogen’s face clearly and mistakenly thought that the woman by Troy’s side was Sarah.

Riley raised an eyebrow, recognizing Imogen immediately, and shot a glance at Troy.

Cedric cleared his throat. “Ahem…”

The atmosphere in the room grew tense for a moment.

Troy, holding Imogen’s hand, walked in, rebuking. “Even a Lafite can’t shut

your mouth?”

Only then did Hector realize that the woman beside Troy was not Sarah but Imogen.

He quickly stood up, apologizing, “It’s Imogen. My apologies. I mistook you. Come sit here. I’ll punish myself with three drinks. Please don’t take it to heart.”

As he spoke, Hector poured himself three drinks.

Not only Hector but several other friends of Troy also initially mistook Imogen for Sarah.

It wasn’t because they looked alike. It was just that during these friends‘ gatherings, Troy never brought a female companion.

Later, after Sarah returned to New York, Troy brought her to these gatherings a couple of times.

So, they subconsciously thought the only woman Troy would bring to such gatherings would be Sarah.

Aside from Riley, in these friends‘ eyes, the relationship between Troy and Imogen was just superficial. A casual greeting upon meeting was all that was needed.

Who would have thought Imogen would accompany Troy to such a place?

“It’s fine. I won’t take it to heart. If you’re going to blame someone, blame my brother for

consistently bringing Ms. Page here,” Imogen said as she sat down on the sofa, shooting Troy a playful look.

Understanding the sarcasm in her voice, Troy wasn’t annoyed. He sat down beside her and asked, “You’re not mad that I brought her here?”

“Why would I be mad? I even called her sister–in–law.”

“I was wrong. Can you forgive me this time?” Troy leaned toward Imogen, his right hand resting behind her on the sofa.

Everyone present wasn’t foolish.

Given how Troy intentionally brought Imogen and their interactions, it was clear something had changed between them.

For someone like Troy to ask for forgiveness was rare.

Hector and the others exchanged glances, but they didn’t show their surprise too obviously. They continued discussing the previous topic, but it was clear their minds were elsewhere.

They couldn’t believe the connection between Troy and Imogen.

In their circle, Imogen was always the exception.

Everyone who met her was respectful and polite, but no one truly took her seriously at heart. Imogen was tactful. She didn’t overvalue herself, nor did she frequently indulge in clubs or live a life of luxury and revelry. Instead, she focused on studying and working hard.

It was like the slackers and top students in a class. Most of the time, they merely acknowledged each other and didn’t interfere in each other’s business.

They knew that Troy probably did it on purpose, deliberately bringing Imogen to meet his friends and intentionally displaying affection towards Imogen in front of them.

When he brought Sarah before, he mostly chatted with friends, with Sarah sitting quietly.

But now, Troy’s special attention to Imogen was evident.

Among those present, there were some who enjoyed having fun, changing female companions every day without any repetition. However, those were just high–end escorts, merely for casual

amusement.

But Imogen’s status clearly wasn’t one to be trifled with.

Otherwise, Henry would not be pleased.

But what about Sarah in the future?

Cedric couldn’t help but worry about Sarah.

“Cedric.” Troy suddenly called out, “Didn’t you want to apologize to Imogen?”

The mention of Imogen’s past incident made Troy remember. It was Cedric who had urged Imogen to call Sarah sister–in–law,

Meeting Troy’s gaze, Cedric felt a chill down his spine. He came over with his drink. “Imogen, I was careless a few days ago. I spoke rashly and offended you. I apologize. Please don’t hold it against me for Troy’s sake. I’ll drink this as a toast to you.”

He finished the drink in one gulp and showed the empty glass.

Hector and the others exchanged glances and looked in their direction.

Everyone could guess that perhaps Troy had invited them today for this very apology.

Everyone knew how close Cedric and Troy were.

Not only had they been friends for many years, but they were also college classmates. Although Cedric had deviated from his professional path, he never left Troy’s inner social circle.

Now, with Troy watching, Cedric’s apology to Imogen spoke volumes.

Imogen looked around, took a bottle of wine from nearby, and filled Cedric’s glass, saying, “You are close to Ms. Page. I can understand if you side with her. If it were me, I would also side with my friend, right?”

Cedric hesitated, not knowing how to respond. This question was a trap. Neither agreeing nor disagreeing would be appropriate,

“Imogen, I didn’t know the situation back then. That’s why I said those things. Please don’t take it personally.”

He downed his drink sullenly.

Imogen poured him another full glass. “So, are you blaming my brother for keeping it from you?” Cedric’s face stiffened, and he shot Troy a glance. “No, I didn’t mean that. All the mistakes are

mine.”

He looked at his glass and drank again.

“One more.” Imogen poured for him again.

Cedric’s face turned slightly pale. He cast a subtle glance at Imogen and, in the end, drank the

wine.

“That’s enough.” Imogen put down the bottle, sat down on the sofa, and said with a smile, “Look at you, making such an effort to apologize. It’s not a big deal. I won’t take it to heart.”

“Heh,” Cedric laughed, but internally he was rolling his eyes.

He knew that Imogen, with Troy’s backing, was deliberately making things difficult for him and then acting innocent afterward. He felt even more disdain for Imogen.

He didn’t understand why, between Imogen and Sarah, Troy chose Imogen.

In terms of appearance, both were equally matched.

But in character, Sarah was definitely better–gentle, considerate, intelligent, and elegant. She got along with everyone, treated people perfectly, always had a friendly demeanor, and made a good impression on others.

Unlike Imogen, who was always cold–faced and boring. If she were genuinely aloof, it would be fine. But she was just pretending to be, becoming arrogant with Troy’s support, revealing her true colors.

Imogen remained impassive.

She knew that Cedric didn’t like her, and she wasn’t going to try and change his mind.

One apologized, one accepted. As long as it looked good on the surface, it was fine.

Troy took a deep look at Cedric, then turned to Imogen with a smile, “Still calling me brother?”
