“Got it.” He saluted me and stormed out of my office.
I sighed as I placed my hand on my forehead. Grabbing my purse and the keys to my office, I locked the doors and went down the stairs, looking for Conner.
“Have you seen Conner?” I asked the security guard.
“He left. I think he went to his car, Dr. Roman.”
“Thank you.” I stepped out the door and walked across the lot to his car. “I didn’t mean to yell at you,” I said as I climbed in and fastened my seatbelt.
“Don’t worry about it. Is there anywhere else you want to go before heading home?”
“No.”
“Fine. Home it is,” he spoke with an attitude.
Right before we were to get on the expressway, Conner noticed it was all backed up.
“Shit. There must be an accident. We’ll go a different way,” he said.
Silence filled the air as I stared out the window. “Stop!”
CHAPTER21

“What?” I glanced at her.
“That building back there. I feel like I know it, but I don’t know how.”
“Charlotte, that’s the apartment building you lived in when I met you.” I turned the car around.
“If I lived there, I need to see the apartment.”
“You just can’t go to someone else’s apartment,” I said.
“I don’t care.” She climbed out of the car when I pulled into a parking space.
She followed the sign to the leasing office and opened the door.
“Charlotte?” An older man stood from behind his desk.
“Do you remember me?” she asked.
“Yes. Of course, I remember you.”
“Hi, I’m Dr. Conner Kind.” I extended my hand.
“I need to see the apartment I used to live in,” she said. “Please.”
“Excuse me?” he said.
“Let me explain. Charlotte was in a terrible car accident and suffered a traumatic brain injury.”
“Oh, my God. I’m so sorry, Charlotte.”
“Thank you. I can’t remember the last ten years of my life. We were driving by, and when I saw the building, I felt like I knew it. Is there any way I can see the apartment I lived in?”
“You happen to be in luck. The apartment was recently painted because new tenants are moving in next week. I’ll let you in so you can see it.”
