I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 738

Chapter 738 More Than Just Illogical

After lunch, Zoe parted ways with Elijah and went back to the studio.

As soon as she entered, a young woman came over with a bouquet of roses. "These flowers came for you, Zoe."

Zoe took the bouquet and checked the card.

"Is Daniel back?" the young woman pressed eagerly. "He's been gone for quite some time now."

Zoe saw the name and chuckled. "It's not from him."

"Oh? Then…"

Zoe held the flowers with one hand as she flicked her hair with the other. "I have several suitors, you know."

Then, she added, "Anyway, that's enough. Get back to work."

The young woman sensed the change in the atmosphere and scampered off.

Zoe went back to her office and set the flowers down before looking out the window with a sigh. She got what she wanted. There were new sparks in her love life, but she didn't feel as enthusiastic about it as she thought she would be.

Oh well. I'll just take things one step at a time and see how it goes.

She checked her phone and saw the news that had been reported half an hour ago. Daphne had officially ended her contract with Pearson Group. All of her current work commitments and deals were also ending.

The internet was abuzz with commentary. Some said that Daphne would most likely be signing with a new company that would offer her even better terms than Pearson Group did while others said she planned on starting her own company and retiring from the limelight to focus on nurturing new talents.

All kinds of scenarios abound.

Meanwhile, the news also reported that Pearson Group had signed on this year's hottest up-and-coming female celebrity.

Many industry insiders were predicting that she would soon take Daphne's place.

Zoe was exasperated by the gossip. She was just about to get off her phone when she spotted a new entry on the list of trending topics. The teasers for Daphne's latest variety show had been released and public interest was at an all-time high.

Ordinarily, Daphne's fame was enough to guarantee that her upcoming show rank among the top trending topics. However, for reasons beyond Daphne's control, the show only just barely made the trending list.


Zoe clicked on the entry to check the related commentary on social media. Apart from fans of the celebrities partaking in the show who were busy promoting the show, there were also a lot of people who were claiming that due to the disagreements between Zoe and Pearson Group, the show would most likely be taken off the broadcast schedule and buried instead.

Sp, Zoe called Daphne. Daphne was still getting her management team together, but for the time being, all of her work was proceeding as normal. It wasn't at all like what the netizens were claiming online.

After chatting for a bit, Zoe asked, "Has that b*stard been pestering you lately?"

"No. Jonathan told me that Theodore's overwhelmed with other matters right now, so I don't have to worry."

"That's good."

Leanna had asked Zoe to help keep an eye on Louis. Nothing would happen as long as Theodore didn't attempt any more funny business.

"Let's all have a meal together once I'm free," Daphne suggested. "Invite Leanna for me."

"Nana and President Pearson have gone off to Jamesdon," Zoe informed. "I don't know when they're coming back. Let's talk about it when she gets back."

"Did something happen at Jamesdon?"

"Charlotte's great-grandfather passed away, and Nana's kid is over there too, so they all went back together."

"I see. We'll wait until she gets back then," Daphne said.

Freddie helped out a great deal with Daphne's contract termination, but she thought it would be awkward if she invited him out for a meal alone, so she wanted to invite Leanna and Zoe along. Since the time wasn't right, the meal would have to wait.

Zoe cleared her throat. "Anyway… Can I ask you something?"

"Go on."

"Have you and Louis been in touch lately?" Afraid that Daphne might get the wrong idea, Zoe quickly added, "I don't mean anything by it. It's just that your show is about to start airing, so I'm wondering if there are any upcoming work arrangements."

Daphne remained silent for a spell before saying, "We're done with all the promotional material, so I don't think so."

"I see. I was just asking. He's about to start school and I wasn't sure if work would get in the way of that," Zoe said.

"It won't."

"That's good. Anyway, you can get back to work now. I won't keep you any longer."

"Alright. See you," Daphne said.

After ending the call, Zoe continued staring out the window with a look of preoccupation.

Just then, her assistant waved at her. "Zoe?"

Zoe snapped back to reality. "Ready?"

"Yeah," her assistant answered. "Let's go."

Zoe turned around. "Let's go."

Of the entire team, only this assistant who had only been working here for less than six months followed after her.

Zoe left the office without looking back.

…

It was sometime in the afternoon. While Noah was with the doctor, Leanna stared at the draft in front of her and let out a long sigh. Then, she raised her head and called out, "Aidan."

He hummed in response. "Hm?"
