Chapter 1596 Corinne made herself comfortable and sat on the edge of the bed. "It's the weekend, and | have nothing better to do since | don't have to go to work." Zachary frowned. "You should avoid coming in the morning. | know you're agile, but there's a big risk you'll get caught whenever you sneak in through the window. You need to be more careful." Corinne crossed her legs nonchalantly and said, "I'm bold enough to chere because | know | won't get caught." Zachary felt somewhat powerless and remarked in a sour tone, "Fine. Do whatever you want. It's not like | can tell you what to do." "Are you angry?" Corinne glanced at him.

Zachary had a sullen expression as he turned his wheelchair to face the floor-to-ceiling window. He looked out and said, "No." Corinne then uncrossed her legs and approached him. She turned his wheelchair so he was facing her. "Pfft! Where did you get the nerve to be upset with me?" Zachary looked up at her. "I'm not upset with you. You're simply doing as you please, and | have no right to interfere." "Is this what you mean when you say you're not upset?" Corinne lifted his chin playfully. "Your expression tells a different story." Zachary retorted calmly, "My expression has always been like this." Corinne chuckled. "Oh, please! I've seen you in all your expressions. Do you really think | can't tell when you're upset?” Zachary felt a heaviness in his chest. Unable to stand nor recall the past, he felt trapped in a quagmire with no means of escape.

Corinne was tired of stooping, so she squatted in front A and rested her chin on her cupped hands. "Are you mad | ctoo early in the morning? Or are you mad that | walked in front of the balcony? Maybe you're mad that | interrupted your alone twith Sophia?" Zachary's irritation dissipated inexplicably when he gazed at her innocent and endearing demeanor. "I'm mad at myself for not being able to protect you and the child." Corinne's lips raised into a grin. "Then that's justified. You ought to be mad at yourself!" Zachary expected a bit more reassurance from her and was thus taken aback by her blunt remark. "Did you chere just to annoy me?" "Of course not, mister!" Corinne tilted her head to one side. "Didn't you get what | mean?" "What are we talking about again?" Zachary frowned a little.

"You askedwhy | cat this time, and | answered you," Corinne said." Did you not get what | meant by my answer?" Zachary repeated her answer, "You toldit's the weekend, and that you have nothing better to do because you don't need to go to work." He understood her answer perfectly well.

His puzzled expression led Corinne to rub her temples. She sighed and said, 'Do | need to spell it out for you? I'm trying to imply that | miss you! Ugh, it's so cringy when | say that out loud!" Zachary was caught off-guard by her reaction and felt his heart skip a beat.’ Is she teasingon purpose to see my reaction?’ he wondered.

"Couldn't you have at least considered the circumstances rather than showing up unannounced?" He sighed softly and was no longer annoyed.

Corinne squatted in front of him and rolled her eyes at him. "Shouldn't you respond by saying you misstoo? | didn't chere to hear you lecture me!" Zachary found her quite amusing and could not resist chuckling. He smirked and asked, "How would you know if | missed you too?" Corinne stood up and shrugged. "You have a point! How can you missif you don't even remember me? Guess I'm just reading too much into it." Zachary perceived a touch of loneliness in her expression and gently reached out to hold her hand. "I might not remember you, but I've been thinking about you a lot these past couple of days." Corinne looked at him with a little sparkle in her eyes. "What have you been thinking about me?" "I've thought about the first tyou grabbed my neck... And that tyou kissed my cheek." 1 Corinne smirked and quipped playfully, "Is that all? | thought you were completely smitten by my charm and fell in love withall over again, even though you don't rememberanymore!"
