Fitch had his plans all mapped out, so the moment he confirmed Zoey was on board, he snapped up plane tickets without a second thought.
After all, there was a whole saga waiting for them in Greenfield. When Zoey's accident shook the community, the Pennyfeathers and others were in an uproar for ages. Now with her return, the buzz was bound to reignite.
The old secrets couldn't stay hidden forever.
Deep down, Fitch dreaded the return to Greenfield. It was a place filled with bitter memories for Zoey.
Yet, it was also home to people who cared deeply for her—Maja, Carol Miller, even Ian Raymond had been touched by her supposed demise.
The truth was bound to surface sooner or later.
The next day.
As the family of three boarded the plane, Zoey still felt like she was in a daze.
Especially with her and Fitch flanking little Nolan, holding his hands between them—they looked every bit the picture-perfect family.
But Nolan had reached for their hands first, and Zoey knew rejecting him would only hurt the little guy.
Throughout their journey, they turned heads, drawing attention from passersby.
Feeling self-conscious, Zoey breathed a sigh of relief only when they finally settled into their seats. Fitch fetched a blanket and draped it over her.
"We'll land in an hour. You can catch some sleep if you want."
Zoey shook her head, her gaze fixed on the clouds outside the window, feeling a surreal sense of unreality.
Landing in Greenfield, they took a VIP exit and got into a waiting car.
As they drove by familiar buildings, Zoey felt a vague sense of recognition, despite believing she had never been to Greenfield before.
The car stopped in front of the Haskins' mansion, a stark contrast to the cozy villa she had in Zion City. Spanning nearly an acre, the property boasted a swimming pool and a running track, among other luxuries.
She knew Fitch was wealthy, but living in Zion City hadn't really given her a sense of his financial magnitude. Now, she was getting a glimpse.
"I had a room prepared for you," Fitch mentioned as they arrived.
Zoey nodded, having brought along only a few clothes.
She found her room and discovered a plethora of new outfits in the closet.
It was her first visit, and she didn't feel a sense of ownership over the space. Could these belong to Nolan's mother?

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
