Chapter 88 Her Plan
Cedric hurriedly said, “Troy, don’t say that. Of course, we are friends!”
“Then tell me the truth.”
“Before that, I have a question.”
“What
“After you left yesterday, Imogen said that she married you, and you are a couple. Is it true?”
“Yes,” Troy replied in a deep voice.
Cedric was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect it to be true. “What? When did you get married? Why don’t I know?
“Three years ago.”
“Three years ago?” Cedric couldn’t believe that they had been married for three years.
How could this be possible?
“In other words, you are cheating
“Answer my question first. Who asked you to find me yesterday, and who told you about Sarah’s injury?”
“If I tell you, you can’t tell others. It was Sarah who asked me to find you. She was afraid that you would not come, so she asked me to exaggerate.”
“Sarah?”
“Yes.”
“Did you see her after she was injured yesterday”
“No, she called me and said that your mobile phone was unavailable. Don’t blame me for this matter: Sarah said that you were with Imogen, and she was afraid that you would leave her. She cried and begged me for help. What can I do?”
“Do you know what day it was yesterday?”
It was Sarah’s birthday.
But Cedric knew that Troy didn’t want this answer.
He recalled when he found Troy and Imogen in Nacre Restaurant, and they were having a candlelight dinner. Could it be…
“Your wedding anniversary?” Cedric guessed.
“That’s right.”
“What a coincidence…” Cedric laughed dryly.
He was used by Sarah.
Sarah must have known that Troy and Imogen were married, and she also knew that yesterday was their wedding anniversary, so she deliberately asked Cedric to find Troy.
Fortunately, although Troy and Imogen were eating at that time, Troy favored Sarah more. Otherwise, Cedric would be implicated if he helped Sarah.
Cedric had known Sarah for many years, and he didn’t think she was such a person, but knowing the fact, he regretted meddling in her business.
“Since you don’t know that, I’ll forgive you this time. You should apologize to Imogen and don’t do
it again.”
“I see,” Cedric responded immediately.
No matter how much Troy liked Sarah, Imogen was his wife, and he must respect her.
Lane quickly sent the video of the set to Troy’s mobile phone, and he also sent over a message: [Mr. Marshall, the monitoring of the set was broken. This video was accidentally captured by the photographer in charge of shooting the bloopers.]
Troy was lost in thought.
The monitoring was broken. Was it a coincidence?
After watching the video, Troy had a judgment in his mind, and he went to Sarah’s attending doctor’s office.
The doctor was having a rest, and when he saw Troy, he was a little flattered. “Mr. Marshall, why are you here?”
“Doctor, I have a question for you.”
“It’s about Ms. Page’s injury, right? I’ll tell you everything I know.”
“I want to know how serious Ms. Page’s burn is.”
The doctor’s face changed, but he remained calm. “Mr. Marshall, I don’t know what you mean. Isn’t it written in the medical records?”
Troy’s face was calm, and he was confident. With sharp eyes, he smiled lightly. “Dr. Turner, you are a smart person. Do you prefer to offend Sarah or me?” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Ms. Page’s real burn area is less than 1%. She just had two blisters on her leg. I don’t want to do this, but Ms. Page and her agent asked me to say that. The medical record isn’t signed, and it has no effect at all.”
“In other words, she didn’t fall into a coma at all, right?”
“No, Ms. Page was sober when she was sent to the hospital yesterday.”
“Okay, I see. Thank you.”
Troy stood up and left the office.
When he arrived at the hospital yesterday, it was almost ten o’clock in the evening. Sarah woke up this morning. She happened to sleep for one night, and her plan wouldn’t be exposed.
Standing in the corridor outside the ward, Troy looked at the sky in the distance.
If he didn’t get these things himself, he wouldn’t believe that Sarah and her agent had lied to him. Why did they do this?
Troy had an answer in his heart, but he wanted to hear Sarah’s explanation.
He walked into the ward.
Sarah smiled at him, “Troy, you don’t have to go out for so long. They didn’t stay here too long.”
Troy said with an indifferent face, “I went out for a walk. How are you feeling? Does it still hurt?” “It hurts very much, so I want you to stay with me. If you stay with me, it won’t hurt anymore.” If Troy didn’t know the truth, he would stay with Sarah.
However, he knew that Sarah was acting now, and from the perspective of a bystander, he thought she was hypocritical.
She still needed to improve her acting skills.
Troy said calmly, “Where does it hurt?”
Sarah said, “My back, waist, thighs, and calves all hurt.”
“Your back? Did you get burnt on your back too? Last night, Ylah said that your burnt part was on your abdomen.”
Sarah’s face froze, and she said, “My abdomen was also hurt.”
“Really?”
Troy looked at Sarah with scrutiny.
He looked at her with sharp eyes as if he could see through everything.
“Yes.”
As Sarah looked at Troy, she nodded, avoiding his eyes.
“But I remembered wrongly. Ylah didn’t say that your burnt part was your abdomen, but your arm. Does your arm hurt?”
Sarah was taken aback for a moment, and she immediately knew that she had been exposed. “Troy, you know it, right? I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have lied to you.” Sarah immediately showed an expression of grievance, with tears in her eyes. “It’s my fault. I’m so scared. I’m worried that you will fall in love with Imogen, and I’m afraid that you will leave me. Yesterday, you only sent me a text message to wish me a happy birthday. I thought you would not come to see me, so I made this decision. I miss you and love you so much. Troy, I can’t live without you.”
Troy stood aside expressionlessly, watching Sarah cry coldly.
He didn’t know whether she was acting now by crying.
Last time, Sarah said the same thing on the phone. She was afraid of losing him. She loved him too much, so she did something wrong.
Troy felt annoyed after hearing too many excuses.
Seeing Troy’s expression, Sarah’s heart skipped a beat, and she threw off the quilt and got out of bed. She threw herself into Troy’s arms, crying heartbreakingly. “I’m sorry, Troy. Forgive me, and I will always listen to you from now on!”
As Troy supported her with one hand, he took out a small box from his pocket with the other and put it on the table. “Actually, I have prepared a gift for you. Even if there was no such thing, I would come to see you last night.”
Sarah sobbed. “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have lied to you. Troy, can you forgive me? From now on, I will listen to you.”
Troy lowered his head and glanced at her. “Sarah, you shouldn’t have such thoughts, and you don’t need to listen to me. You are yourself, and you have lived a good life in the past few years abroad. So, without me, you can still live well.”
Sarah panicked. “Troy, what do you mean? You don’t want to divorce Imogen, do you? Do you want to leave me?”
