Chapter 444

What a shameless b*tch she is. Leanna leaned on the wall and said flatly, “I have no idea why you think you have the right to negotiate with me, but I won’t help you, no matter for whose sake. I’ve already helped you enough by not telling the cops what you told me back at the police station.”

Queenie hissed, “You’ll regret this, Leanna!”

Leanna chuckled. “Sure. Do your worst.” And then, the call ended. She tucked her phone away. All her sleepiness was lost, so she made herself a cup of coffee and returned to her office.

Zoe had already woken up. She was staring out the window and yawning. Once Leanna came in, she rubbed her eyes. “Where did you go, Nana?”

Leanna answered, “I was dozing off, so I made some coffee. Want some?” Zoe nodded, so Leanna gave her the cup of coffee and went to make another one.

Zoe drank the coffee and sat down, waiting for the caffeine to hit her. A while later, she had shaken off her sleepiness, so she got up. “Nana, I’m hungry. I wanna get something. You want some?”

“I’m fine with anything.”

“Okay. I’ll get you something, then.” Zoe stretched her arms and left the office. Her destination was the mall beside them.

Just as she had taken a few steps, Daniel appeared beside her. “Hi. What a coincidence.”

Zoe’s lips twitched. “Your shop is right beside ours. Yeah, fancy seeing you here.”

He cocked his eyebrow, but he said nothing. Instead, he followed her into the mall.

Zoe went to the bakery in the basement to get some pastries. Then, she made a beeline for the snack bar she frequented to get some snacks.

And Daniel followed her all the way. Then, he said, “Pick this. I saw an ad for it before, and I think it’d taste good.”
