Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 279

Languidly, Zoe leaned against the door frame and said, “It must be nice to have mental nourishment. I want some too.”

Leanna looked back with a smile. “You’re up! Take a shower. Breakfast’s ready.”

Zoe yawned before humming in response and headed for the shower. Meanwhile, Leanna set up the table and filled a lunchbox with breakfast, including Louis’ share so that he could take it to work.

After breakfast, Zoe informed, “Nana, I’ll warm up the car first.”

“Sure, go ahead. I’ll be there soon.”

Leanna changed her clothes and was about to leave the house when she passed by the mirror in the doorway at which she retreated back and took out her lipstick.

She waited for Zoe by the entrance of the neighborhood when a black Rolls-Royce halted in front of her.

The car window was wound down to reveal the man’s sculptured features. Aidan gazed at her and nodded sideways. “Hop on.”

Leanna shook her head. “I’m waiting for Zoe.”

“You guys stay together every single day. What’s there to wait?”

At that moment, a car was driven over and its driver honked. Leanna scanned to the left and right, but there was no sight of Zoe’s car. Since the b*stard had no plans on giving up, she pulled open the car door and took the passenger seat before giving a call to Zoe.

Aidan drove ahead and parked the car by the road. Glancing at the lunch box on her lap, he stretched out his arm and grabbed it. As she was speaking over the phone, she did not notice his actions.

He opened it while questioning, “Is it for me?”

“Hey—” Before she could deny it, he already opened the box and fed himself a piece of meat.

Leanna grumbled, “It’s for Louis.”
