Chapter 11: Speculation
“No,” he answered relatively simply as he leaned on the back of his chair.
Troy rubbed his brow after turning off his computer before he stood up, ready to go, and glanced at the
woman not so far away from him.
“Let’s go,” he uttered, and it was heard in the quietness of his office.

prepared. In the comfortable dining area, the maids had already prepared the dinner. After a simple
dinner, Troy went back to his study to work overtime. On the other hand, Imogen. graced the living
room to watch some drama. She poured herself a glass of warm water to consume the medicine she
got inside the cabinet. Her throat felt the tablet running down when she took it with warm water.
“Why are you drinking medicine? Is there something wrong? Are you sick?” Troy, who came from
behind, suddenly said.
It was because of his sudden appearance that Imogen’s eyes widened, and she felt a thump in her
heart. She turned to look at the man she saw standing a few meters away.
“It’s fine. My stomach is acting up these days, but I can manage,” she calmly replied.
“Did v
you have it checked?” He walked closer to pour some water for himself after asking. The man did not
doubt anything, mainly Imogen’s excuse at the dining table that day. “Yes, I have,” Imogen replied, her
breathing hitched.
“That’s good,” he muttered while nodding his head. “But make sure to take care of yourself more in the
future.”
Hearing those caring words made her feel a lump in her throat, yet all she did was nod coldly and

The following day, the constant ringing of Imogen’s phone woke her up.
It was hard to open her hazy eyes in the morning, but she did so and touched her phone on the
bedside table. When she glanced at the screen, she saw someone calling and quickly answered.
“Hello,” she uttered using her groggy voice.
“Director! Something bad happened. Please look on your Instagram; it’s trending everywhere!” The
anxious voice of her assistant was heard.
Her brows furrowed, so she asked quickly, “What’s wrong?”
Imogen opened her tablet without hesitation and went to the social media site. There she found news
articles all over the platforms, one after another.
“Mr. Marshall and Miss Page have been photographed together.”
As soon as the assistant finished speaking, Imogen had already clicked in and flipped through it. The
silence was heard for a while as Imogen read the article online. Because of that, her assistant got
worried and whispered, “Please tell me what to do, Director.”
“Wait for me to go to the company. Just contact Sarah’s team and don’t respond to any of the
reporters,” she ordered discreetly.
Her eyes were still on her tablet, gazing at the pictures on the trending lists. It showed them going in
and out of the restaurant together. Although, there was some sneaky peek information gathered

Seeing that, she knew they could release photos of the two sides of the restaurant to stir up
enthusiasm.
“I see,” she whispered.
The assistant was about to hang up when Imogen stopped him again. “Listen, you have yesterday’s
group photo in your hand, right? Pick a photo of him and Miss Page, ensure they don’t look so close
together, and prepare it for me.”
“Understood, Director,” he replied as soon as he heard what she wanted.
Imogen hung up afterwards and prepared herself.
When she arrived at the company, her assistant greeted her, nervous and worried, “Director.”
“Are you done contacting Sarah’s team? What did they say?” Imogen asked as she walked into the
elevator.
After seconds, the assistant hesitated but opened his mouth, “Mr. Marshall has already entrusted this
matter to the public relations department.”
Hearing that, Imogen tightly pursed her lips without speaking.
The elevator arrived at the corresponding floor, and Imogen emerged from the elevator and met
Charlene head–on.
Just as she saw Imogen, Charlene’s face lit up with a proud smile and a strange expression. “Oh, it’s
our Director! Did you see the news about Mr. Marshall and Miss Page? Someone’s doing her best to
seduce him, but it seems Mr. Marshall’s not affected. I wouldn’t have the face to stay at Marshall Group
of Companies if I were you. It’s embarrassing.”
Those words made Imogen’s assistant’s face so red in rage, but Imogen was calm as ever. She
pretended that she heard nothing and walked past the woman.
Annoyed at her nonchalance, Charlene called her out again, “Are you even aware that he is to make
me handle this issue?”
Imogen paused her steps.

Seeing a reaction from her, Charlene smiled proudly and slowly walked up to Imogen. “You know what?

feeling restless.
