Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 628 A Lot to Take In

When Leanna and Charlotte arrived at the studio, Zoe was snapping new promotional images of the products on the models. Due to online advertising, the traffic within the shop had doubled. Zoe had already been hiring people, but they were all in charge of the online platform, so the workers in the studio were already strained.

The busy girls saw Leanna and their eyes brightened.

Leanna walked to one side of the counter and told the queueing customers, “Come here.”

With Leanna’s help, the payment process became much quicker. Many people recognized her and quietly talked about her, commenting that she looked prettier in real life than in her photos. After the wave of customers had left, the shop became emptier and was no longer as busy as before.

One girl exclaimed, “Miss McKinney, you’re finally back!”

Leanna smiled. “It must have been tiring for you all.”

“Of course not. Miss Zoe gave us all a pay raise.”

As they talked, Zoe returned from next door and hugged Leanna after seeing her. “Nana, I’ve missed you.”

Leanna smiled as she patted Zoe’s back. “I’ve only been gone for a month. Why are you acting like you haven’t seen me in years?”

Zoe let go of Leanna, sighing while rubbing at her back. “It feels like a long time.”

Leanna saw this and asked, “Are you not feeling well?”

“No. It’s just that my waist hurts after standing for so long.” Zoe looked at Charlotte, who was looking around curiously behind Leanna, and asked in a low voice, “Who’s that?”

Leanna answered, “It’s—it’s a younger friend of mine. She will be helping out in the studio for now.”

Leanna then called Charlotte over and asked another girl to take her around before entering the office inside the studio with Zoe. After the door had closed, Zoe asked in confusion, “How did you meet this friend of yours?”

Leanna rubbed her eyebrows. “It’s…a long story.”
