I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 462

The dinner ended at 10.00PM. Some of the ladies' boyfriends came to pick them up, and some took a cab home.

Zoe took out her car key from her bag. "Nana, how are you going back? Shall I give you a ride?"

In response, Leanna laughed dryly. "Aidan is coming to pick me up. He's on the way."

Zoe clicked her tongue, thinking she had asked an unnecessary question. Then, she said, "I'll stay with you until the

b*stard arrives."

The weather turned warm recently, so the streets turned noisy and busy with pedestrians.

After a while, Leanna suddenly asked, "Zoe, are you busy tomorrow?"

Zoe answered, "No, I'm not. I don't have any shooting tomorrow."

Leanna pursed her lips. "Can you go to a place for me?"

"Sure. Where should I go?"

Leanna took out an elevator keycard from the bottom of her bag. "I don't know which household they live in, but

there are only four households on each apartment floor. So…"

Before she could finish, Zoe took the keycard from her. "So, I have to check them all one by one. Okay, no problem.

Tell me about the appearance of the person you're looking for."

Leanna said, "She's a woman in her twenties, with short hair and fair skin. She's pretty too."

"Are there any other characteristics?"

Leanna tried to recall, but there were no other characteristics of Celia. So, she added, "If you find her, find a way to

get in and see if there's a baby in her home. If there is, stop her and contact me immediately. I'll come to you right

away."

No one else on the same floor could match Celia's features with a baby at home.

If there was such a person, the coincidence could only mean that someone did it on purpose.

When Zoe looked at Leanna's expression, she knew this was serious. So, she immediately assured Leanna, "Don't

worry. I'll take care of it."

Afterward, Leanna added, "They might have someone guarding outside. So, when you go, be careful not to get

caught."

"Okay, leave it to me."

As soon as Zoe finished speaking, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of them. Seeing this, she waved at Leanna.

"Nana, I'll get going now. See you tomorrow."

Leanna smiled at her. "Yeah, see you tomorrow."

Aidan had the designer keep Leanna occupied every day so that she would be distracted and not have time to do

other things. He didn't need to do this if he had sent Celia elsewhere.

Hence, Leanna suspected that Celia was still there.

However, she couldn't check it herself as Aidan's men knew her. She would most probably get caught the moment

she arrived at the entrance.

Hence, she could only ask Zoe to take the trip for her.

The car door opened from the inside as Aidan's voice came. "Why are you standing still?"

Quickly, Leanna collected her thoughts and got into the car without saying a word.

Sensing the gloomy aura emanating from her, Aidan said without warning, "Are you still having PMS?"

Leanna couldn't respond to the remark for a moment.

Then, she looked at the driver in the front row and glared at Aidan. "Shut up."

Aidan raised his eyebrows. "I'll take you somewhere tomorrow."

"Where to?"

"Underwood Lane."

At that, Leanna froze as her heart missed a beat. Is Aidan sending me away on purpose because he knows I asked

Zoe to check on the apartment?

Seeing that she was silent, he slowly asked, "You don't want to go?"

She said calmly, "Nothing of the sort. Why are we going there tomorrow?"

"The demolition will start the day after tomorrow. Didn't you always like it there? Why not take one last look at it

tomorrow?"

Leanna parted her lips. The words of refusal came to her lips, but in the end, it became a simple "Okay."

If she went there with him, he would let his guard down, plus she could keep an eye on him in case he contacted his

men.

…

On the other hand, after Zoe parked her car and walked some distance into the neighborhood, she had a feeling

that someone was following her. However, when she looked back, she didn't see anyone.

A cold breeze blew by at that moment. She felt a chill running down her back and touched her neck.

Impossible. I didn't drink tonight, so why am I hallucinating?

Tightening her grip on her phone, she picked up her pace to leave.

Fortunately, as she reached the elevator, one came down in time. Then, she hurried in when the door opened.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she arrived home. Subsequently, she reached out to enter the passcode.

With a beep, the door unlocked.

Then, she pulled the door open and was about to enter. However, a man suddenly hugged her hard from behind.

"Zoe, Zoe! I missed you so much. Please forgive me. I promise I will never contact that woman again. Let's be

together!"

Zoe could smell the scent of alcohol enveloping her entire body, and she struggled hard. "You madman! It's the

middle of the night! Enough of your drunken craze! Let go of me, or I'll call the police!"

Instead of letting her go, Anthony tightened his hug around her and kissed her everywhere.

He was restraining her arms, so Zoe couldn't push him away. She could only tilt her head to avoid his kisses. She

was so mad the urge to kill rose within her. "Anthony, you f*cking lunatic! I'm warning you one last time! If you don't

let go of me right now, I won't hold back anymore!"

"You can't do that to me. Say, where's that boyfriend of yours? If you ask me, he's just a piece of garbage! Can he

be as good as I am to you? Did you forget how we used to be… Ouch!"

Zoe was slammed into the wall by force, and behind her came Anthony's miserable scream.

Before she could look back, Daniel's cold voice rang. "Get in!"

Zoe grabbed the doorknob with a shuddering breath but paused for a while before entering. Then, she finally

closed the door without hesitation.

Even through the door, she could still hear Anthony being beaten.

It wasn't a fight, but a one-sided beating.

After an indefinite amount of time, the commotion outside stopped.

Anthony finally fled in despair.

Shortly after, Daniel asked hesitantly, "Are you alright?"

Zoe crouched down on the floor with her back against the door, her eyes red. She replied, "Do I look alright to

you?"

"I can't see anything."

Zoe was speechless at his reply.

He asked tentatively, "Why don't you open the door for me? I can take a look at your injury then."

However, she sniffled and answered, "No, thanks. Please leave."

"How about I take you to the hospital?"

When she heard that, Zoe said in annoyance, "I said no! Just leave. Why do you care?"

Daniel was feeling helpless. "Be reasonable, will you? He's the one who bullied you, but you're so mean to me."

"You men are all up to no good!"

He remained silent at the remark.

Then, it took a few seconds before he spoke again. "I'm leaving, then."

Zoe hugged her legs while burying her head in her knees and ignored him.

All at once, the surroundings became quiet. The sound of footsteps and elevator doors was crisp to the ear.

Soon, there was no more sound outside the door.
