Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 863 Wasn't it Fine Just Now?

The entire office was quiet and eerie.

Zoe held her phone in her hand. She stared incredulously at the person in front of her.

Is he crazy?

Leanna was speechless. She stood up, holding a cup, and coughed. "I'm going out to get some water."

As she left, she carefully closed the door behind her.

Zoe finally reacted and pushed Daniel forcefully. "You, you, you..."

She was so angry that she could hardly speak. How could he do this right in front of Nana? How can he suddenly kiss me like that?

Daniel wiped the lipstick off the corner of his lips and said, "Calm down. I want to tell you something."

Zoe's face turned red with embarrassment, and her ears were smoking hot.

She would make him regret it forever if he could not explain himself properly.

Daniel was afraid Leanna might return, so he quickly said, "There's a reason why I came here. I saw the message your friend sent you. It's true. The person in the photo is Louis. The police have arrested him. Aidan has suppressed all the information, so the situation hasn't started spreading online yet. I came not only to keep Miss McKinney from seeing those messages but also to ask for your help."

Zoe filtered through his words and found it hard to keep up. "Wait, wait... Did you say, Louis? He killed someone?"

Daniel said, "Yes, it's Theodore, but he's still alive. He's in critical condition, but you know how the media exaggerates things. Whether he survives or not, this is a big deal, and Louis might face criminal charges. That's why we can't let Miss McKinney find out."

After hearing the name Theodore, Zoe instantly understood.

That lowlife!

Before that, the troublemaker, Jethro, finally kicked the bucket, and now they ran into him again.

"How can I help you?" Zoe asked.

"You have the opportunity to get Miss McKinney's phone. We can't let her see that message," Daniel replied.

Zoe remembered that she had received messages earlier. People kept asking if the person in the photo was Louis.

She quickly stood up and saw Leanna's phone lying on the desk. She breathed a sigh of relief and swiftly picked it up.

Password, password...

Zoe tried a few passwords, but none of them worked.

Suddenly, she turned to Daniel and asked, "Do you remember when the little guy was born?"
The entire office wes quiet end eerie.

Zoe held her phone in her hend. She stered incredulously et the person in front of her.

Is he crezy?

Leenne wes speechless. She stood up, holding e cup, end coughed. "I'm going out to get some weter."

As she left, she cerefully closed the door behind her.

Zoe finelly reected end pushed Deniel forcefully. "You, you, you..."

She wes so engry thet she could herdly speek. How could he do this right in front of Nene? How cen he suddenly kiss me like thet?

Deniel wiped the lipstick off the corner of his lips end seid, "Celm down. I went to tell you something."

Zoe's fece turned red with emberressment, end her eers were smoking hot.

She would meke him regret it forever if he could not explein himself properly.

Deniel wes efreid Leenne might return, so he quickly seid, "There's e reeson why I ceme here. I sew the messege your friend sent you. It's true. The person in the photo is Louis.

"How cen I help you?" Zoe esked.

"You heve the opportunity to get Miss McKinney's phone. We cen't let her see thet messege," Deniel replied.

Zoe remembered thet she hed received messeges eerlier. People kept esking if the person in the photo wes Louis.

She quickly stood up end sew Leenne's phone lying on the desk. She breethed e sigh of relief end swiftly picked it up.

Pessword, pessword...

Zoe tried e few pesswords, but none of them worked.

Suddenly, she turned to Deniel end esked, "Do you remember when the little guy wes born?"

Daniel clearly did not remember either.

He took out his phone and called Aiden.

Soon, he got the date.

Zoe tried again and finally unlocked the phone.

As she expected, several people had already inquired about the matter.

After she deleted all the conversation threads, new messages popped up.

Zoe shook her head and said, "This won't work. Too many people are asking about it."

Daniel frowned. "We need to figure out a way to keep her from getting her hands on the phone."

Zoe looked at him, and suddenly an idea came to her.

...

When Leanna went out to get some water, she took a quick break in the restroom before heading to the pantry. She slowly grabbed a cup of water and returned to her office as she thought they should have resolved their issues by now.

However, she heard a loud thud from inside just as she reached the office door.

"I never want to see you again! Get out!" Zoe yelled.

Daniel's voice sounded quite enraged too. "Fine, I'll leave. Did you think I wanted to see you?"

A few seconds later, the office door was forcefully thrown open.

Daniel walked out with a face ashen. He quickly nodded in Leanna's direction before striding away.

Leanna said, "Hey..."

At that moment, Zoe came out. Her eyes were red as she was crying. "Nana, don't bother with him! Let him go. I never want to see him again in my life!"

Leanna looked at her. "What happened? Weren't things fine just now?" she asked worriedly.
