Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 758 You're a Bit Odd Today

Upon returning to her sanctuary, Zoe sensed the aroma of pizza still clinging to her, so she went to take a bath.

After emerging from the toilet, she nestled into the embrace of the couch and reached for her phone; it had a notification on it indicating a message sent from Brandon 10 minutes ago.

The text read, 'Zoe, after spending time together, you probably have a preliminary understanding of me. I don't know what you think of me, but I genuinely regard you as an exceptional woman. I recognize that our current acquaintance falls short of what is requisite for two individuals to embark upon a romantic journey. Regardless, dating itself is a process of getting to know each other. I wonder if you'd consider taking a step forward with me based on the current foundation.'

He followed up with another text, asking, 'Zoe, would you be willing to be my girlfriend?'

Zoe looked at the message and fell silent for a long time. She exited the chat with Brandon and scrolled through countless conversations until she found Daniel's profile picture and tapped on it.

Little by little, she scrolled through their past chat records. Sometime later, she drew a deep breath and resolutely deleted the remnants of their past exchanges.

Returning to Brandon's message thread, she composed her response, meticulously crafting each word. 'Certainly.'

With the dispatch of her reply, Zoe put down her phone and reclined on the couch. Let's consider this as a fresh start for myself.

Meanwhile, in the adjacent room, Leanna busied herself with cleaning when a tiny toy tumbled to the floor amidst her extraction of garments from the suitcase. Carefully setting aside the garments, she slowly lowered herself onto the floor to pick the toy up.

The little guy was playing beside me when I was packing last night; he must have put it in there at that time.

Clasping the toy within her palm, she became lost in her thoughts, sitting on the floor for an extended interlude before rising to enter the bathroom.

After she finished showering and came out, Leanna opened another small bag and took out a box from it that contained several sachets of medicinal herbs, accompanied by an array of syringes.

These were all given to her secretly by Waylen before she left.

Those were a week's worth. Waylen had repeatedly instructed her on how to take the medicine and administer the injections; the medicinal herbs were to be taken twice a day, and the injections were to be administered once a day.

Leanna let out a sigh and placed everything in the innermost compartment of the refrigerator, using several food containers as a barrier.
