Sir Your Wife Already Signed the Divorce Paper

Chapter 157 Chairman and President

Aaron realized that Henry’s move was for the company and didn’t say anything.

Most of the shares were in the hands of Layla and would be divided again. It was only natural for Troy

to get more shares, given his contributions to the

company.

The other shareholders, after their initial shock, quickly accepted this fact.

Aaron was busy with his own catering company and didn’t know much about the company’s business.

The shareholders didn’t trust him to take the chairman’s position.

Emily had been living abroad for years and rarely interfered with company affairs.

Nicolas had no shares and had always been in the research and development center.

Layla didn’t understand business operations.

After considering all options, no one was more suitable for the chairman’s position than Troy. However,

it felt strange to think that the Troy would be the chairman while Aaron would be the president.

Jarvis’s expression was incredibly complex.

His proposal to dismiss Troy was based on the assumption that Henry Marshall was in good health.

Jarvis never expected the sudden death of Henry Marshall.

Jarvis had to admit that the morale of the company was only stabilized with Troy as chairman.

Jarvis glanced at Leo.

Leo looked down, his expression cold, as if lost in thought.

Before the death of Henry, he left a will that pushed Troy to the position of chairman. This was a sign of

dissatisfaction with the president’s personnel changes and deliberate targeting of Leo. If the chairman

deliberately hindered him, the president’s manoeuvre would be limited.

Both were grandsons of Henry. Leo also held a senior position in the company. Although his projects

weren’t booming, they hadn’t encountered any significant issues. Why was Henry so biased?

Or did Leo do something that Henry couldn’t tolerate?

When Lane informed Troy of the shareholders‘ meeting results, Troy had just returned to his villa.

Imogen had already started eating. Troy finally felt relieved and could take a break.

Troy stood on the balcony on the second floor, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag. His emotions were

mixed.

Troy had never expected this outcome.

“Before Grandpa’s death, Grandpa had met with Sarah. Troy thought Grandpa would be highly

disappointed in him, but he didn’t expect Grandpa to choose still to protect him.”

“What had he done to deserve such treatment from Grandpa?”

Troy held the cigarette between his index and middle fingers, gently tapped off the ash, turned around,

leaned against the railing, and saw everything inside the villa.

They had spent all three years of their marriage here.

Their lives were deeply intertwined, inseparable.

1/3

This place held all their memories, good and bad.

Soon, after they returned from Gracehaven Church, he would move out, and there would be no trace of

Imogen in his future life.

His phone rang.

It was a video call from Emily.

A little girl appeared on the screen as soon as the call connected. She was adorable with her round

face and twinkling eyes.

Emily stood beside her and said, “Troy is on the line, Grace. Say hi.”

“Troy!” Grace shouted, “Long time no see!”

In front of the child, Troy showed a rare smile. “Long time no see, Grace.”

His smile was tinged with bitterness.

Troy thought of the unborn child.

“If he had been born and reached four or five years old, he would probably be as cute as Grace, right?”

“Troy do you miss me? I miss you so much. Are you at your home in New York City now?” Grace

asked.

“Yes, I miss you, and I’m at home,” Troy replied, showing her the surroundings.

“Hmph! I don’t believe you! You have Imogen now. How can you miss me?” Grace looked behind Troy,

“Troy, where’s Imogen?”

Troy’s expression stiffened. “Imogen is sick. She’s in the hospital.”

Grace looked worried. “Ah? Injections hurt. I’m most afraid of injections. When will Imogen come

back?”

“In a few days.”

“Troy, you should give her cake after Imogen gets her injection. It won’t hurt after eating cake.”

Troy couldn’t help but smile. “Okay, I’ll give her cake.”

Emily took the phone and said to Grace. “Grace, go do your homework.”

Considering the time difference, it was dinner time in Los Angeles, but New York City was lunch time

and Grace had just had dinner.

Hearing Emily’s words, Grace pouted. “I want to talk to Troy.”

Emily knew this was just a way for Grace to avoid homework.

“No cake if you don’t do your homework.”

Faced with the choice between Troy and her cake, Grace ultimately chose the cake. She waved to

Troy. “Troy, I will do my homework. Bye! Kiss!”

“Go ahead, study hard, and I’ll visit you when I have time.”

Only Emily remained on the screen.

Emily looked at Troy’s face and asked, “Haven’t you been resting well lately? You look haggard.”

“Yes.” Troy replied, taking another drag from his cigarette.

“When did you start smoking?” Emily was surprised.

“Recently.”

Chapter 157 Chairman and President

“You know the results of the shareholders‘ meeting, right? Henry still cares about you.”

Troy lowered his eyes. “I know. I let him down.”

“What’s there to feel guilty about? Maybe in his last moments, Henry realized he shouldn’t have tied

you and Imogen together.”

Emily’s speculation was unlikely, and Troy didn’t respond.

Emily continued, “I heard Imogen is pregnant. Is she in the hospital for fetal protection?”

Troy paused momentarily, then said, “No, she had a miscarriage.”

Emily was taken aback. “It’s probably for the best. Otherwise, it would be even harder to break with a

child. Now that your grandfather is gone, when are you getting a divorce?”

“Wait until she’s recovery.”

“That’s good. What about Sarah? After your divorce, you should marry Sarah quickly. She’s been

waiting for so many years.”

“Sarah caused my grandfather’s death and is now missing. I won’t marry her. Emily, please don’t bring

this up again.”

“It’s okay if you don’t marry Sarah. I know a girl here, she…”

“Emily!” Troy interrupted. “I don’t plan to find someone else after the divorce. You don’t need to worry

about me.”

“I’m just looking out for you. You’re almost thirty, and because of your grandfather’s wrong decision,

you’ve wasted three years…”

“My grandfather’s decision was right!” Troy said firmly, “If not for him, I might never have understood

my heart.”

Emily was shocked. “Troy, that Imogen hasn’t bewitched you have you? She…”

“Emily, I have things to do. I’m hanging up now.”

Troy decisively ended the video call.

Emily called again, but Troy declined.

Troy put out his cigarette and was about to return to rest when he saw a black car approaching and

stopping in front of his villa.
