"What's there to be afraid of? I'm not going to hurt you." "Mr. Haskins is correct, but maybe deep down, I think you might hurt me?" She had forgotten, but her body still remembered the slap he had given her at the Haskins' Thanksgiving dinner. Fitch stopped wiping his lip, falling silent. Zoey had no desire to engage with him further and found a chair to sit in. Fitch seemed frozen in place, her words striking him like a dagger, drawing blood.
She had becclever now, he thought. He tried to provoke her into remembering the past, and she hit back with even greater force. But she truly didn't remember, so she couldn't grasp the intent behind his words. Unfortunately, he remembered all too well, so one could only imagine the impact of her words.
Zoey didn't want to look at him; she just sat still in her chair. After a while, she felt her chair sink slightly as he sat down beside her. "Zoey." He called her name.

"I do have reasons to apologize, so I'm sorry." Zoey suddenly felt irritable, and just at that moment, her phone rang. It was Henry. She stood up and walked to the side to answer the call, not noticing Fitch putting on his wireless earbuds.
"Hello, Henry?" "Zoey, I'm all set. Can I cover to your place? I'm on my way, and my folks are with me. At this hour, I bet your parents haven't left yet. We'll just pop by for half an hour." Henry sounded eager. Zoey had been ready to give up; two people with an unstable relationship, soon to face a long-distance challenge, were 99% likely to drift apart. But now Henry was calling her.
She breathed a sigh of relief and was about to answer when she heard footsteps behind her. In the next second, Fitch took her phone and said, "She can't make it today." Zoey stared at her empty palm, dumbfounded for a moment, and then saw him hang up the phone. Anger flared up instantly. "Are you insane? Giveback my phone!" But Fitch clutched the phone tightly. "Zoey, you had a car accident four years ago and lost your memory. Have you ever considered that maybe we knew each other before?" Her anger subsided, "What are you trying to say?" "You want to get engaged to Henry? Then marry him?" "Yes, I think he's a good match." "Do you know what you and I were to each other?" Chapter 1900 1 She reached for her phone again, but Fitch grabbed her wrist.
"Cback to Greenfield with me." Zoey was about to retort, but then she noticed several bodyguards approaching from behind, and her face turned pale. "Fitch, what the hell are you doing?" As the words left her mouth, the doctor cout holding Nolan.
Seeing Nolan's frail figure, Zoey didn't want to curse in front of the child and held back. She was escorted to a car and saw that they were heading toward her apartment complex, which confused her. Was Fitch taking her home? Apparently not.
The car stopped across from her place, and she was ushered inside. The bodyguards followed close behind, handcuffing her hands in the foyer. Fitch went upstairs holding Nolan aying the child on the bed. Nolan lowered his lashes, wanting to say something but his eyes reddened, and he remained silent. Fitch patted his head gently. "It's okay, Nolan. I'll cclean to your mom in a bit."
