Chapter 387

When Leanna reached the studio in the morning, she saw that Zoe had yet to arrive and asked the sales girls in her store. "Is Zoe here yet?"

One of them answered, "Not yet. Miss Hart is usually here at this time. What's up with her today?"

"I'll give her a call," Leanna said.

However, after she called, nobody picked it up for a long time. Zoe went home drunk last night, and she's not picking up my call now, her mind launching into terrible scenarios as she picked up her car keys.

But when she reached the door, she saw Zoe hopping off a Porsche, and the person stepping out of the driver's seat was Daniel.

The sight of the two of them utterly confused her to the point where she started questioning her vision. What's going on? Are my eyes playing tricks on me?

Besides a shocked Leanna, the other sales girls from her studio also gathered over, craning their necks as they leaned out to catch a glimpse of such a scene.

Zoe naturally felt their laser-focused gaze and was somewhat embarrassed. So, she powerwalked her way into her office.

Meanwhile, Daniel stared at her back, raised his brows, and went into the store next door.

In the studio, before Leanna could open her mouth, the girls already had a significant headstart bombarding Zoe with questions.

"Miss Hart, why did you come with Daniel? What's happening between you two?"

"Yeah, are you guys seeing each other? I remember that you took a detour when you saw him a few days ago."

"What's happening? Quick, spill us the tea."

Their questions made Zoe's face bright red, and after a while, she stammered, "I-It's nothing, actually. He's courting me."

Everyone was struck dumb, but she couldn't blame them for not believing her because she almost bit her own tongue when her brain-to-mouth filter finally registered.

She shoved the people aside. "Alright, that's enough. Get back to work and be snappy about it," she said and hid in the lounge.
