Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 364

Chapter 364

After returning to her office, Leanna was greeted by a lady who came running to her before she could even sit down. She then whispered secretively in her ear, asking, "Are you available at the moment, Miss McKinney?"

"Nope. Why?"

The lady spoke in an even softer voice, "The handsome man from next door came by just now and left a message. He wanted me to tell you to meet him, but you mustn't let Zoe know about it."

"What is it that I can't know?"

She was frightened by the voice as she turned around and saw Zoe's face just right beside hers. Thus, she chuckled awkwardly in an attempt to play it off. "N-Nothing." Struggling to talk her way out of this, the lady saw no reason for her to continue sticking around, so she quickly brushed Zoe off with an excuse and fled the scene.

Then, Zoe leaned on the desk and asked, "What were you ladies talking about? You two were acting like spies."

Nonetheless, Leanna reacted with a smile and said, "It was really nothing. It was just that…" Daniel wants to see me. Believing it was the words that Zoe said earlier, Leanna surmised that was the reason Daniel avoided them when he came over to leave her a message.

In the meantime, Zoe was not entirely unaware of what was going on, having seen an employee from the next door talking to the lady outside earlier. However, she went on to stretch herself and said, "I'm going to take a cat nap at the back. Holler at me if you need anything."

"Sure." Leanna put down her belongings and left her office not long after Zoe walked away.

Meanwhile, Daniel was sitting in front of his piano, pausing what he was doing, when he saw Leanna arrive. He then shot a gaze at the other employees beside him before they sensibly walked out the door.
