Chapter 28: Crazy

Troy’s expression hardened a hint of mockery in his voice. “You think I have no right to be concerned? You’re not just my wife but also my sister–in–law. Do you ever consider why he wants to take you abroad? Once there, you are on your own, without family, what then?”

Imogen was at a loss for a response.

All she knew was that her anger was reaching its boiling point.

In frustration, she kicked at the blanket.

A sharp sting followed as her injured ankle struck something hard. The intense pain forced a gasp from her, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Troy quickly pulled back the blanket to inspect her ankle. “What happened? Did again?”

Tears streamed down her face as Imogen nodded.

Gently, Troy fetched the medicine, unwrapped the gauze from her foot, and cleaned the wound. He then applied a soothing ointment that significantly alleviated the pain.

Setting the medicine aside, his expression grew stern. “Imogen, I won’t accept your resignation. Don’t bring it up again.”

Defeated and exasperated, Imogen averted her gaze.

Troy took a seat beside the bed, “We’re still married. Don’t invite strangers into our home.”

She challenged him, “Even my friends?”

“Is he truly just a friend?”

Imogen turned away in frustration.

“I don’t want to discuss this anymore.”

Her mind was in turmoil.

Later, after dinner, she headed upstairs and noticed a document on her bedroom table. It wasn’t from Sarah’s house, but from the office. Or was it? On closer inspection, it was a thick medical file from Mount West Hospital, with Sarah’s name prominently displayed on the front.
