Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 48

When Zoe heard Anthony's voice, she turned to him and said, "I'm on the phone with Leanna." After that, she returned to her call with Leanna and said, "Okay, okay. I got to go first. I'll share with you the process of his marriage proposal again later!"

With that, Zoe hastily ended the call.

Staring at her phone screen that went black, Leanna parted her lips and felt powerless for a moment.

Presently, she wasn't afraid that Anthony would propose to Zoe. Knowing Anthony wasn't someone with a good personality, Leanna knew that he wanted to continue being with Zoe as he kept things up with his mistress. Zoe has already given him obvious hints countless of times before, yet he pretends to act dumb and rejects her idea of marriage. Isn't it obvious that Anthony simply wants the best of both worlds?

Therefore, he'll definitely not propose to Zoe in order to avoid his responsibility.

It was just that Leanna still didn't know how to tell Zoe about Anthony cheating on her.

As expected, Zoe sent Leanna a disappointed text message after half an hour. 'I've guessed wrong. He didn't propose to me. He only gave me a bag.'

Reading Zoe's text message, Leanna thought of the two bags that Anthony bought in the store today. At once, the rage within her was unleashed.

Enraged, her fingers started tapping on the phone screen and she typed out a few words. However, she deleted them again.

She continued doing so for the next few minutes, and God knew how many times she had deleted the text that she wanted to send.

Soon, Leanna received another message from Zoe. 'It seems like I still can't rush into this matter. Sigh. I guess I'll just go with the flow, then. Anthony asked me to follow him back to his home for the next month's holiday, and I think it should be about discussing matters relating to marriage. By the way, I have my eyes on a few wedding dresses recently, and I really like them. Hold on, I'll send the pictures to you."

Immediately afterward, Leanna received the pictures of wedding dresses sent over by Zoe.

After sending Leanna those pictures of the wedding dresses, Zoe texted her, asking for her opinion. 'Nana, what do you think? Which one of these wedding dresses looks good?'

Looking at the question asked, Leanna deleted the words that she had originally typed out. Then, she replaced them with a simple text. 'I think they all look nice.'

Feeling delighted with Leanna's comment, Zoe texted back excitedly. 'How about you becoming my bridesmaid when the time comes? You must be the most beautiful bridesmaid in the world!'

Reading at Zoe's request, Leanna smiled. Then, she replied. 'Silly. I'm a divorcée, remember? I don't want to jinx your wedding.'

Despite excluding this part in her text, she still thought to herself, What's more, my marriage was still a very unhappy one.

When Zoe saw that reply, she immediately texted back. 'What about being a divorcée? Besides, you're not the cause of that unhappy marriage of yours. It's Aidan, that b*stard, who didn't know how to appreciate an outstanding wife like you.'

Before Leanna could reply back, Zoe sent her another text again. 'Hey, I've got to go. Anthony is calling for me. Go ahead with your work, and I'll catch up with you again later."

After Leanna read that message, she put down her phone and rested her arm and head on the table. Thinking about the incident when she found out Anthony was cheating, she couldn't help but feel angry again.

What the hell is going on?! Why are there so many b*stards in the world?!

Several minutes later, Leanna's phone rang again.

As Leanna already comfortably rested her head and arm on the table, she found herself too lazy to move. Then, she reached out her hand and grabbed her phone. Looking at who the sender might be, she saw it was Daphne. She had sent her a text complaining about Aidan.

In the message, Daphne told her that she had just booked a flight to go shopping abroad. However, Aidan had already requested her to accept a drama deal before she could recover from her excitement.

Not only that, Daphne even added in her text that Aidan's sudden request was like taking away her freedom.

With that, Leanna replied to her, and soon they started chatting with each other. After they chatted for a while, Leanna asked carefully, 'I have a friend, and uh… her friend's boyfriend cheated on her, so she

asked me how she should tell her friend. Do you have any good ideas?'

When Daphne saw her text, she swiftly replied, 'Ask your friend to tell that friend of hers to give her boyfriend hints saying she wants a bouquet of yellow roses, or keep sharing quotes about cheating.'

Then, Leanna replied again. 'But my friend's friend has been with her boyfriend for so many years, and their relationship is very deep. She'll surely be very sad if she finds out.' © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Shortly after, their topic of conversation changed from reprimanding Aidan to scolding a b*stard who cheated.

Also, it was during this time that Leanna came to find out the details of the scandal that had been spreading uproariously about Daphne before.

Well, that was another story about another b*stard.

Back then, there was a rich guy who was an outsider in the entertainment industry who vigorously pursued Daphne. At first, Daphne ignored him. However, she eventually couldn't resist the b*stard's inquisitiveness and thoughtfulness. Over time, his thoughtful gestures moved her, and she became enamored.

And just like that, the two got together and became a couple. However, things took a drastic turn when the two were only a few months into their relationship. Out of the blue, Daphne became a trending search figure for no reason.

Not only did she become a trending search figure, but the scandals and real-time news that trended along with her name were the ones that could blow someone's mind.
