Chapter 125 You Can Call Me Troy

If there were no such incident, Charlene would be able to show her ability in the branch office.

But now, Troy would never keep Charlene in the Marshall Group.

Imogen was not too surprised and said, “She is yours. You decide.”

From the very beginning, Imogen suspected Charlene.

Sarah could only create some specious topics to stir public opinions, which was not considered slander, so Imogen couldn’t do anything to Sarah.

If Sarah posted news that was confirmed, once Troy clarified directly, she would lose more than gain.

Only Charlene had no scruples. But because she liked Troy, she secretly drew the focus to Imogen.

Troy slowly approached Imogen, stopped in front of her, raised his hand to touch the broken hair on her temples gently, and said softly, “I’m sorry.”

Regarding Charlene, he still owed her an apology.

If he believed Imogen at the beginning, perhaps these things would not happen later, and she would not have to be attacked and abused from all directions on the Internet.

She didn’t do anything wrong but lived like a shady mouse in the gutter. And everyone scolded her when she showed up.

Imogen took a step back subconsciously and lowered her eyes. “Mr. Marshall.”

If he had apologized earlier, she might have been completely moved.

“There is no one else here. You can call me Troy.”

Imogen looked as usual but said in a low voice, “Mr. Marshall, I think what Mr. Fox said is reasonable. Due to personal reasons, I have caused huge losses to the company. I can’t absolve myself of the blame. I can’t still be here with peace of mind. Therefore, I want to resign.”

Troy frowned slightly. “It’s my problem, and it has nothing to do with you. You work at ease and don’t overthink about it.”

Imogen pursed her lips.

She didn’t want to think too much about it.

But under such a stressful environment, she couldn’t breathe.

Even in the company, wherever she went, she could feel the gazes falling on her, whether probing, watching for fun, contemptuous, or obscene…

She had exhausted all her strength to negotiate and report work in front of everyone as if nothing had happened.

Did it really have nothing to do with her?

Then why did many people scold her?

“Or why don’t you go home and rest for a few days?” Seeing that she was silent, Troy suggested. “Let’s talk about it later. I’ll go back first.”

Imogen turned around.

“Go back to Marshall villa on Saturday morning.” Troy suddenly stopped her.

Imogen was stunned for a moment, then replied, “I remember.”

Saturday was the anniversary of the death of Troy’s father, Thomas Marshall, and Leo’s mother.

Seeing Imogen disappearing at the door, Troy stood there for a while, then turned around, walked to the desk, and pressed the intercom. “Ask Mr. Johnson to come see me.”

Mac guessed that Troy was looking for trouble for him, but he firmly believed he couldn’t catch him, so he had nothing to fear and walked into the office with his head held high.

“Mr. Marshall, what do you want from me?”

Troy sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, slowly took a sip of tea, glanced at the couch opposite, and motioned to Mac, “Sit.”

“Mr. Marshall, I didn’t expect you to have such passion!” Mac sat down opposite Troy.

Troy smiled faintly. “I’ll be straight with you. Here is a document. Please have a look at it. Do have anything to say about it?”

As Troy spoke, he slowly pushed the folder in front of him to the opposite side.

The file folder looked ordinary, with the usual blue exterior and no labels.

But it was this ordinary folder that made Mac feel a little nervous.

Mac knew that Troy would not fight unprepared, but Mac was completely uncertain about what Troy wanted.

Mac slowly opened the folder and took a quick look at the file. When he saw the familiar name, his face changed drastically. “Mr. Marshall, there must be a misunderstanding here! Seth is so honest. It is impossible for him to do this!”

“The evidence is so clear. How could there be any misunderstanding? You can ask Neal and your son in person if you don’t believe it!”

Mac’s face turned pale.

Troy dared to say that because he had proof.

Seeing that Mac was silent, Troy continued, “As Mr. Fox said, this news has seriously affected the company’s reputation and stock and caused huge losses to the company. In the name of myself and the company, I will file civil and criminal lawsuits against Neal and Seth for reputation infringement and defamation. You have always been responsible for the company, so you must be very supportive?”

The legal department of the Marshall Group was capable.

In addition, this news had indeed made a huge impact and was very bad. If Troy and the company won the lawsuit, Neal and Seth would have considerable compensation, not to mention bankruptcy, and they might even go to jail.

Moreover, reputation infringement and defamation were private prosecution cases. Even if Mac knew that Charlene must have instructed Seth’s actions, Troy would not sue or forgive Charlene, then Seth could only bear the responsibility.

At this moment, Mac couldn’t help but regret helping Charlene, an ungrateful woman.

She was crazy and irrational. And she was afraid that Mac would give up on her, so she

deliberately asked Seth to do this.

Mac remained calm and asked, “In this case, let’s be blunt. Isn’t it true that you have an affair with Imogen? You are so confident that you can win the lawsuit?”

Chapter 125 You Can Call Me Troy

Troy leaned on the back of the sofa with a bit of confidence on his face. “Since you don’t believe it, let’s try, Mr. Johnson!”

Mac fell silent, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

Troy said, “You have two options right now.

“The first one, you bet me lose the lawsuit. The risk is high, but the profit is high. If your bet loses, Seth would face huge compensation and jail time. I have asked someone to verify all of Seth’s properties. The temporary transfer is not feasible.”

“Second, you take the initiative to resign from the board of directors and apologize to Imogen for instructing the police to aim at her. Then I will forgive Seth.”

“Since Charlene dares to do this, maybe she has the evidence to make Seth the mastermind. Mr. Johnson, please think it over.”

With the letter of understanding, Seth’s punishment could be reduced. He might still need to pay a certain amount of compensation but avoid going to jail.

Troy still needed to thank Charlene for involving Seth in this matter so that Troy had the conditions to deal with Mac!

Otherwise, to remove Mac, a removal proposal might be made at the board of directors.

Mac’s complexion changed a lot, gloomy for a while, pale for a while. Finally, he didn’t dare to take the risk. “I choose the second one.”

He started from a nobody to the deputy general manager, step by step. After staying for a few more years, he might be able to get some odd shares and become a minority shareholder. But in the end, he had to resign on his own initiative!

Mac was not reconciled!

But Seth was Mac’s only son. If Seth went to jail, his whole life would be ruined! “Mr. Marshall, Ms. Forbes’s mobile phone is back. Should I send it to her, or…”

Just now, the police took Imogen’s work mobile phone back to the police station to obtain evidence from the harassers‘ numbers. There were some internal company documents in it that could not be leaked, so Lane went to the police station with police.

“Leave it here.”

“Yes.” Lane put the phone on the table and exited the office.

Troy paused for a few seconds, picked up the phone, and turned it on.

After entering the password, he clicked on the list of all text messages and saw the sentence at a glance: [Imogen, go to hell!]
