She lunged forward, only to see Nolan standing protectively in front of Fitch.
Mia shoved him aside in a heartbeat, "You little wretch, get lost!"
Nolan, not being the tallest of figures, staggered from her push and hit his head on the table, blood immediately starting to flow.
Zoey, initially composed, turned pale at the sight.
"Nolan?"
A glint of triumph flashed in Mia's eyes as she raised her hand to slap.
"Ha, serves you right! I've always despised this little brat. What makes you think you, Zoey, can let your kid inherit the Haskins family fortune! Get lost, the farther you and your son go, the better!"
Zoey was too concerned about Nolan's condition to dodge the slap, her cheek taking the full blow.
Mia, still not satisfied, grabbed a chair and aimed for her head.
The café erupted into screams, and someone had already called the police.
"Bang!"
The chair crashed onto Zoey's head, her mind went blank, and she collapsed.
Sharon, witnessing the scene, felt her heart trembling with fear and quickly grabbed Mia's arm.
"Have you lost your mind? This could kill someone! Slapping her was one thing, but this... If your brother finds out, you'll be shipped off overseas again!"
Mia felt a sense of release from her anger.
"Let them send me away, I can live just fine abroad. And if Zoey ends up disabled or daft because of this, even better!"
The ambulance and the police arrived swiftly, taking Zoey and Nolan to the hospital.
The café's dispute was caught on camera, even Maja saw the footage and immediately rushed to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Fitch was also informed; he left a meeting midway and hurried to the hospital.
Zoey and Nolan were both in critical condition. Sharon sat alone in the hallway, shaking uncontrollably.
She had a premonition that this was the end.
Fitch was the first to arrive, having run several red lights.
Upon seeing Sharon, she stood up from her chair, startled.

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....
