Here is the revised and polished translation:

No one had ever dared to treat Sharon like that before. She was so livid she couldn't even string a sentence together.
She tried calling Fitch again, but he still wasn't picking up.
Back in the room, Zoey gently touched the area where she had been slapped, her eyelashes fluttering down.
The moment she had opened the door and seen that face, a wave of familiarity had surged through her, only to vanish just as quickly.
She went upstairs to find Nolan still engrossed in his book, with music playing softly in the background, courtesy of Zoey.
The sight of the slap mark on her cheek sent a shock through Nolan, quickly followed by anger and then stern concern.
It was the first time she'd seen such a range of emotions in a child's eyes, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
The next second, Nolan's tears started to fall.
"Who did this?" he asked.
Zoey's heart melted, and she immediately began to comfort him, ruffling his hair.
"Oh, my little crybaby, don't cry. I don't even know who that was. Probably one of your daddy's guests. I'll talk to him later, so we don't get in trouble without knowing."
Nolan grabbed her hand, his tone serious.
"It won't happen."
Zoey suddenly found herself at a loss for words.
Even with his autism, Nolan's affection for her was unmistakably clear. Fitch was right; Nolan really did like her.
And in such a short time, Nolan showed more emotion towards Zoey than Sharon ever had.
A soft smile played on her lips, her heart feeling tender.
"Alright, if your daddy gives me trouble later, you'll have to back me up."
Mia's flight should be arriving soon. Sharon's visit to Fitch's mansion was to discuss this matter with him in person, ensuring Mia would stay for just three days.
Over the years, Fitch had grown colder and more ruthless, never once inquiring about Mia. Sharon worried he wouldn't agree over the phone.
Who would have thought she'd bump into Zoey, of all people, at the mansion?
Sharon prided herself on her excellent upbringing, but after four years of Fitch's indifference, she too had felt wronged.
Fitch was her flesh and blood, yet he had sent his own sister abroad over a woman, severing ties with the Haskins family.
Sharon couldn't comprehend it, but the moment she laid eyes on Zoey, she understood everything. It was all Zoey's scheme!
Her plan had succeeded; after lying low for four years, Zoey probably hoped a guilt-ridden Fitch would treat her like a precious gem.
Sharon's face darkened with resolve; she had to eliminate Zoey.
Fitch was merely confused, deceived by this woman's trickery.
He hadn't interacted with many women; of course, he was unaware of the depths of their cunning.

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....
