Chapter 227 Can’t Restrain 

The tall figure enveloped her. She felt extremely oppressive. 

The strong smell of wine came from the man in front of her. Imogen frowned slightly and held her breath. 

Hearing the sound of locking the door, she felt a chill behind her back. She forced herself to calm down and took the initiative to ask, “Troy, are you crazy? Why do you drag me here?!” 

Troy pursed his lips tightly. His eyes were deep, staring at her without blinking. 

Imogen felt scared, so she pushed him away hard, but it didn’t work. 

He curled his thin lips, showing a mocking smile, and asked, “You don’t know? Why did you escape as you saw me?” 

Imogen looked at his pupils composedly and said, “I didn’t escape.” 

“Oh? Didn’t you run away?” Troy’s eyes were complicated. His voice was low, and his sexy Adam’s apple rolled up and down. 

Imogen shook her head quickly and denied, “I didn’t run away.” 

Troy smiled, but his expression became more complicated. “Since this is the case, Erik is a talent, and Whitmore Technology also intends to hire him. Why don’t you recommend him to me?” 

Imogen was silent for two seconds and said, “He indeed got Whitmore Technology’s offer, but he finally chose Marshall Group, which means that Marshall Group is more attractive to him, and it is useless for you to know him now.” 

Troy said, “Since you don’t recommend him for me, 

don’t recommend him for me, I’ll go find him myself.” 

Then, Troy pressed the doorknob and made a gesture to go out. 

Imogen’s expression changed, and she immediately grabbed him. She shouted, “Troy!” 

Troy lowered his eyes and squinted at her. He asked, “What’s wrong?” 

Imogen hesitated. 

Grace was just a child, so Erik would not mind her. 

But Troy was different. 

If Erik found out that she and Troy attended the reception together, Erik would not be able to keep 

in touch with her. 

It was also difficult for her to learn about the truth from Erik. 

Seeing Imogen’s silence, Troy sneered, put his big hands on the door, and approached Imogen. He said, “Didn’t you say you didn’t run away? Why are you so afraid that he will see me?” 

Troy wondered, “Does she really like Erik?” 

Imogen couldn’t help leaning back. She leaned against the door to leave the distance between her and Troy. She said, “You and I are already divorced. If we let him know that we attend the reception together, there will be a misunderstanding.” 

Troy said, “Misunderstanding? So many people know that we come together. Why are you only afraid of his misunderstanding?” 

Imogen tried to explain, Because uh…” 

The handsome face in front of her suddenly enlarged. 

Troy pressed her against the door, tightly kissed her lips, and bit her roughly as if he were venting 

some dissatisfaction

He was scared

It didn’t matter if anyone thought that he was deceiving himself. 

He just didn’t want to hear those words from her mouth! 

Imogen stared wide–eyed for a few seconds, shook her head, and struggled. She pressed his arms against his chest and said, “Troy, let me go…” 

Troy didn’t move at all, even took a step forward, pushed her legs apart with his knees, pinched her jaw with one hand, and clamped her two slender wrists with the other. 

He originally just wanted to kiss her lips. 

However, her lips were soft and sweet. The moment they kissed, it immediately brought back the memories of those nights in his mind. 

He thought Grace said Imogen was so fragrant and soft… 

So fragrant and soft… 

He clearly knew how soft and fragrant Imogen was. 

Those intimate memories couldn’t be removed from his mind. 

Troy felt he was hot, as if there was a fire in his body, which became more and more intense. Troy couldn’t help deepening the kiss. His hand pinched Imogen’s chin at first, and then he slowly caressed her neck and ears. The rubbing of the skin brought a trembling itchiness and revealed desire. 

As their bodies touched, Imogen immediately noticed the change in Troy’s body. 

The bitter and spicy taste in his mouth reminded her that Troy couldn’t restrain himself after drinking… 

She panicked and struggled desperately. “Let me go.” 

Unexpectedly, the more she struggled, the more obvious Troy’s reaction became. 

Under the catalysis of alcohol, Troy’s whole body was scorching, and the hot hit his brain as if trying to burn his sanity to dust. 

He felt his hand was not under his control, and he loosened Imogen’s wrist spontaneously. 

Imogen thought he was going to let her go. 

In the next second, there was a chill in her chest. He tore off the one–shoulder neckline of her dress and began to knead her breasts with his big hands. 

Troy felt it was really soft. 

“Um…” 

Caught off guard, she let out a low mon from her throat. 

The atmosphere was sexy

Suddenly, there were footsteps outside, and someone stopped at the restroom door. 

The doorknob was pressed, but the door would not open

The man outside asked suspiciously, Excuse me, is anyone inside? Could you please open the door?” 

Imogen’s hand on Troy’s shoulder stopped pushing and refused. She did not dare to move. 

Troy was stunned and came to his senses instantly. 

He opened his eyes and looked at Imogen’s eyes at close range. 

Her eyes were clear and bright. The color of her pupils was distinct, like jewels submerged in 

water. 

The lips of the two touched each other. Their breaths intertwined, and neither of them moved. The man didn’t hear a response for a long time, turned, and left. 

Troy immediately raised his head, left Imogen’s lips, and said in a hoarse voice, “Sorry, I was impulsive.” 

Imogen lowered her head expressionlessly. 

Following her gaze, Troy saw that his hand was still on Imogen’s private parts. 

As if scalded, he quickly withdrew his hand, took two steps back, and turned around. He said, “Arrange your clothes first.” 

Imogen tidied up her collar. Without saying a word, she directly unlocked the door and walked 

away. 

Troy washed his face with cold water in the washbasin and suppressed the impulsion in his body. He came out of the restroom and strode toward the hall. 

Suddenly, someone blocked his way in front of him and said, “Mr. Marshall, can I talk to you?” 

It was Charlene. 

The case against Charlene had almost completed the process and was about to start a court 

session. 

Charlene wanted an out–of–court settlement, but Troy instructed the attorney to refuse Charlene’s proposal. 

She could only find a way to meet Troy alone. 

Troy walked around her expressionlessly and said, “I don’t want to talk to you.” 

Charlene eagerly followed him and said, “Mr. Marshall, about that defamation case…” 

Troy stopped in his footsteps, looked at her, and interrupted her coldly, “I have entrusted this case to my attorney with full authority, and I will not settle it out of court.” 

After speaking, he continued to move forward. 

Charlene suddenly hugged his waist from behind and pressed her face on his back. Her eyes gradually became moist. She said, “Troy! Listen to me. Imogen is not good enough for you at all. Imogen used her father’s liver donation to force the Marshall family to adopt her and had been pestering you shamelessly. I know you must be bored, and everything I did was to help you! I know you like Sarah, so I did this to fulfill you!” 

Troy pulled Charlene’s hands away and turned to look at her. His cold face was even more solemn, and his eyes were extremely sharp. He said, “Then let me tell you, Imogen didn’t pester me. It was me who was pestering her. You pretend to be smart all because you are jealous of Imogen! No matter how many excuses you make, I won’t change my decision. Just wait for the punishment of the law!” 

Yes! I’m just jealous of her. I am not inferior to her,Charlene held Troy’s arm tightly and cried, “Troy, can you stop being so cruel?! I beg you. Please look at me. I have liked you since you joined the company for many years! I like you very 

you very much…” 

Chapter 227 Can’t Restrain 

When footsteps came from behind, Charlene subconsciously stopped crying and turned her head to look, then her whole body froze in place. 

Seeing Imogen, Troy was nervous, and he immediately pulled Charlene’s hand away. “Imogen…” “It seems that I passed by at the wrong time. Pardon the bother. Go ahead.” Imogen looked cold without looking at Troy. She walked around them and strode toward the hall.
