Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 310

Daniel walked to Zoe and held the umbrella above her head. "Where are you going? The airport or the railway station? I'll give you a ride."

Zoe forced a smile. "Thanks, but no, thanks. I've booked a ride. It'll be here soon."

"But the rain is getting heavier."

"Uh... I think it's okay. Thanks for the offer, but my car will be here soon."

Zoe raised her phone, intending to show him that she had booked the ride, but when she looked at her screen, she found that the driver had canceled the ride.

D*mn it! What an unlucky day! Zoe cursed in her mind.

Daniel's lips twitched in amusement at the sight. Then, he stepped forward to take her luggage. "Come on."

"No, thanks, I can—" Zoe wanted to refuse him.

"Didn't you say that neighbors should help each other?"

No! That was a pretense she came up with because she wanted to flirt with him, but she didn't expect that he had more excuses than she did, and his reasons were outrageous.

As the rain was indeed getting heavier by the second, but she really didn't want to have anything to do with him. At the end of the day, she reminded herself of the plane ticket she had already paid and nodded reluctantly.

Daniel handed her the umbrella, swiftly stuffed her luggage in the back seat, and got into the car.

Zoe held the umbrella in her hand as she gritted her teeth and forced herself to get in.

"Which airport?" Daniel asked.

After Zoe told him the address, she feigned courtesy by saying, "Will it be too much trouble? I don't want to get in your way."

"It's okay. Don't mention it." Daniel tapped the steering wheel gently and drove the car steadily.

When Zoe heard that he didn't mind, she sat quietly and looked at the road.

After a while, he asked, "Can I ask you something?"

"Yes." She adjusted her posture and tried to focus on the conversation beside the screaming in her head that made it known that she really didn't want to be there.

The sound of the wipers echoed across the cabin as Daniel slowly enunciated, "I heard that Miss McKinney's father passed away. Is it true?"
