Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 796 They Quite Welcome Me

After leaving Leanna's house, Louis took a taxi to Daphne's neighborhood.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, several security guards warmly greeted him, "Louis, it's been a while since you last visited your girlfriend. Did you have a fight?"

Louis stopped in his tracks, a faint smile forming on his lips. "No, I've just been busy lately."

"I see. Well, go ahead. Don't let us keep you. We wouldn't want to waste your time together."

Louis nodded slightly in acknowledgment and walked forward with long strides.

Inside the apartment, Daphne was applying a face mask while practicing yoga and talking to a friend on the phone.

The friend asked, "Hey, about that young guy, can you give me his contact information?"

Daphne was puzzled. "What young guy?"

"The one who appeared in the advertisement with you. He's at the top of the trending list today. Did you not see it?"

Daphne answered her friend's question with silence.

She hadn't seen it.

She had spent the whole afternoon reading the new script that had just arrived.

After briefly retweeting a post from 'Starry Night''s studio, she put her phone down.

To be honest, she didn't want to dwell on the hurtful comments.

After finishing the script, she didn't reach for her phone as she wanted to rest her eyes. Instead, she started moving her body.

The friend clicked their tongue. "How are you not interested to know more about something so big? That guy's so hot. Honestly, have you ever felt like losing your self-control when it comes to him?"

Daphne sat in a plank position and replied irritably, "What nonsense are you talking about? You just said he's a young man. How could I... have any thoughts about him?"

"Was that hesitation I just heard?"

"You heard wrong! I was just catching my breath!" Daphne huffed. "I don't feel like talking to you anymore. I'm going to focus on my yoga."

With that, she quickly hung up the phone.

But without her friend's voice disturbing her, Daphne still couldn't muster up any enthusiasm or energy.

She decided to sit up and pick up her phone. After hesitating for a few seconds, she opened her Twitter.

The trending topic about her and Louis was still at the top.


The comments could be roughly divided into two types.

One thought they were a perfect match and shipped them as a couple.

The other one consisted of fans from both sides, focusing on promoting themselves.

Of course, there were also some insulting words.

Daphne chose to block those comments.

After reading for a while, she quietly sighed as she recalled what Louis had said to her in the hallway that day.

She began to brood as she sat on the yoga mat.

But after a while, the doorbell rang.

Daphne slowly snapped out of her reverie.

Earlier in the afternoon, she called the property management as there was a blockage in the drain. They told her they would send someone to fix it later.

It must be the property management staff.

Preoccupied and absent-minded, she unhesitantly opened the door with a face mask on because she thought that no one would recognize her.

But the moment she met the person outside, her eyes widened in surprise.

The person who had been on her mind since earlier suddenly appeared in front of her.

Anyone in her shoes would find it somewhat unbelievable.

Louis tilted his head slightly, probably not understanding her current appearance.

Daphne stammered, "W-What are you doing here?"

Louis pressed his thin lips together and glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. "The place I was staying at was discovered by paparazzi."

Daphne might have been taken aback for a bit, but she didn't doubt his words.

After all, she had experienced similar situations before.

She had moved many times because of it.

It wasn't until she moved here that things started to get better.

She unknowingly asked, "Why didn't you go to your sister?"

"I did," Louis replied, "but Aidan kicked me out."

That was something Aidan would do, Daphne thought to herself.

She soon took a step back and offered, "Come in first."

However, she saw something falling in front of her when she turned around and took a few steps.

She looked down and saw some powder on her clothes.

What is this?

Daphne looked up again but didn't see any dust on the walls.

She then noticed that the powder seemed to be green.

Suddenly, she remembered something and rushed into the bathroom.

Sure enough, the mud mask on her face had dried up!

Daphne almost couldn't catch her breath.

No wonder Louis looked so confused earlier. He must have been wondering what kind of mystical creature was doing at her place!

Feeling lightheaded, Daphne reluctantly pulled herself together, turned on the faucet, and washed off the dried mud mask from her face. She then went back to the bedroom, took off her yoga clothes, and changed into an elegant long dress. She also put on plum-colored lipstick.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she thought she looked really good. She instantly looked more mature because of the lipstick.

When Daphne returned to the living room, Louis was sitting on the couch, calmly reading a book.

She felt like she had overacted a bit at that instant.

What was I even doing?
