Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Fitch glanced up, his gaze lingering on her for a few seconds before he stood up. "Take the day off, Zoey. Nolan's old enough; he doesn't need constant supervision."

"But I should be working. How about I take him to the amusement park? Kids love those."

Fitch stiffened. "No need."

"Has he ever been?"

"No."

"Then why..."

"Zoey."

He called her name again, his voice suddenly hoarse. "Just stay in the villa for now. If you're bored, you can walk Nolan and Ozzy around the estate. It's vast, with many sights you haven't seen yet." Zoey didn't respond. His tone had shifted to something much heavier, as if carrying a secret.

She couldn't figure it out. On her first day, the assistant hinted she should stay in. It seemed like Fitch deliberately wanted her confined here.

She was puzzled.

Fitch had taken the day off, and for the next two months, all his meetings were switched to virtual. Even document reviews were done in the living room.

This meant Zoey and Nolan were always under his watchful eye.

She had assumed someone of his stature would be perpetually busy. Yet, for the following week, she saw him at the villa every single day.
