After hearing that, Zoe recalled the scene she witnessed in the ward by chance last night and she was hesitating whether to tell Leanna about how that b*stard kissed her while she was fast asleep.

After hearing that, Zoe recalled the scene she witnessed in the ward by chance last night and she was hesitating whether to tell Leanna about how that b*stard kissed her while she was fast asleep.

As such, she decided to test the waters first. "I saw Aidan yesterday. Did he say anything to you?"

Leanna felt helpless at the mention of him. "It's nothing. He told me to return his money and that Zayn will never marry a divorcée like me."

"Has he lost his mind?"

"To be honest, I think he's been acting strange after the divorce."

Knock. Knock.

A knock resounded on the door, interrupting the conversation and drawing their attention. Standing by the door was a woman carrying a bouquet while wearing a pair of sunglasses and a mask.

Zoe stared at the unknown woman for a while before recognizing her identity. "Daphne?"

Daphne took off the mask before closing the door and waving at them. "Hey guys. I'm here to visit."

She and Zoe had worked together before for a few cover shoots and advertisements. Although they were not that close, they could be considered as acquaintances. Even so, she had nothing to do with Leanna, which confused Zoe as to why she would visit.

Daphne arranged the flowers into the vase while explaining, "I heard that the designer of Lux Jewelry has been hospitalized, so I decided to pay her a visit as I have some free time today. How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine. Thanks." Leanna nodded as she was well-informed of how Daphne had lent a hand for the last two rounds of the runway last night.

In actuality, Daphne was only doing someone a favor.

Jonathan spent the whole night racking his brain in order to come up with a solution. Yet, the employees, including Leanna, had totally mistaken that Aidan's feelings were directed to Mia instead of Leanna.
