Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 801 Finding Time to Have a Baby

Daphne, Leanna, and Zoe had dinner and chatted until 10.30PM before heading home.

Since Daphne had a little bit to drink, she hailed a taxi instead of driving herself.

On the way back, she leaned against the car window, staring outside absent-mindedly.

She seemed to be thinking about something.

When she arrived at the residential area and got into the elevator, her phone vibrated. It was a friend reminding her about the new 'Starry Night.'

She almost forgot about it.

Massaging her throbbing temples, she sent a voice message to Leanna as she stepped out of the elevator. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

"My friend wants the earrings I wore today, but they're out of stock online. Do you still have them at your studio? If so, I'll have her come over tomorrow—"

She paused halfway through her sentence, her hand involuntarily releasing the voice message button.

She asked, "Why are you..."

Louis was squatting at her doorstep, scrolling through his phone. The reflection of the screen illuminated his stern jaw, making it look exceptionally profound.

Beside him were two bags of fruits and vegetables he bought from the supermarket.

When he saw her, he put away his phone and stood up.

"When did you come?" Daphne asked.

Louis pursed his lips. "Not long ago."

Daphne didn't believe him. Her gaze fell on the supermarket bags on the ground, where something inside had already melted and formed a small puddle of water.

When she thought of a possibility, she couldn't help but ask in disbelief, "Did you come right after school?"

Louis didn't say anything and only picked up the grocery bags.

Seeing that, Daphne knew she had guessed right.

As she opened the door, she asked, "If you came, why didn't you call me or..."

You could have gone to the security room to wait. You've been squatting here for so long.

Louis replied in a soft voice. "I was afraid you were busy. I didn't want to disturb you."

Daphne paused for a moment as she opened the door. She couldn't help breathing heavily.

This was bad for her heart.

In the morning, he was like a focused wolf, but at night, he turned into an obedient puppy.

It seemed like he could switch freely.

How could anyone resist him?

Daphne coughed and finally opened the door. "Come in first."

Louis then walked into the kitchen with the things he bought in his hands.

Daphne walked over and stood behind him, hesitating as she explained, "I wasn't busy tonight. I went out to dinner with your sister... Next time this happens, don't wait for me like this. Just call me. Even if I'm really busy, I'll reply as soon as I see it. It's better than waiting here for hours."

Louis took out the things from the bags one by one and put them in the refrigerator. "I thought you would just tell me the password," he indifferently commented.

Tongue-tied, Daphne took a second before she huffed, "Don't even think about it!"

Louis' lips curled up slightly, and he hummed in agreement.

Daphne went and sat down at the dining table. It was probably because she didn't sleep well last night and had been busy all day that she was thoroughly exhausted now. She didn't have the energy to speak loudly. "Is there anything to drink? I'm a bit thirsty after drinking."

Hearing that, Louis took out a bottle of juice from the bag and twisted the cap open before he handed it to her.

Daphne drank half the bottle in one gulp.

After putting away the things, Louis turned around and informed her, "There are fruits, vegetables, and vegetarian food in the fridge. When you don't know what to eat, open it and take a look."

Daphne slowly put down the juice and lazily refused, "I think you're wasting your effort. By the time I feel like opening the refrigerator, everything inside will probably have gone bad."

Louis paused for a moment. "I told you I will come and cook for you."

Daphne rested her head on her hand on the table. It was probably because of the alcohol that her questions became bolder. "What do you like about me? Besides being pretty and having slightly better acting skills, I seem to have no other merits. And you're not the type to be a fan, so there's no reason for you to—"

"I'm shallow. I like pretty people."

Daphne spoke seriously, "There are many pretty people in the entertainment industry, especially young ladies. Jellyfish Entertainment recently signed a group of young female idols who are about the same age as you. You should get to know them more."

"They're not as pretty as you."

Daphne probably didn't expect him to say it so directly. While she was stunned, her lips involuntarily

curled into a smile.

Everyone liked being called pretty.

Especially when it was from the person you like.

This feeling was seriously maddening.

After Louis closed the refrigerator door, he picked up his bag. "I'm leaving. Get some rest."

Daphne felt in a daze. His coming and leaving in a hurry made her a bit confused.

After a while, she finally managed to ask, "It's so late. Can you still catch the subway?"

"I'll take a taxi. I have class tomorrow morning."

"I see. Well, be careful on the road."

Louis agreed and walked a few steps before suddenly turning back, cupping her face, giving her a deep kiss, and then turning around and leaving.

As the door closed, the whole room instantly fell silent.

Everything that just happened felt like a dream.

Daphne suddenly felt confused as she lay on the table. Who exactly was playing with whom?

Why did she feel like she was in a bit of a mess?

At this moment, her phone, which was on the table, vibrated. She had gotten a reply from Leanna.

'I think there's a pair of samples at the studio. Tell your friend to come and get them tomorrow.'

Looking at these words, Daphne became even more unwilling to face reality.

...

On the other end of the phone, Leanna recalled what happened this afternoon after replying to Daphne.

She took out her phone and was about to ask Louis what was going on, but she gave up before dialing the number.

Forget it. It's his romance. I'm sure he knows best.

She shouldn't be asking too much either.

However, it was almost midnight, and Aidan hadn't returned yet.

She didn't know if he had eaten.

Even though she was yawning, she forced herself to stay awake. She then ordered a lot of takeout and took Jonathan's number before finally putting down her phone and going to sleep.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but it was already bright outside when she woke up.

Looking at the figure in the room, Leanna rubbed her eyes and sat up. Her voice was filled with drowsiness when she asked, "Did you just come back or are you about to go out?"

Aidan turned around to look at her. "Did I wake you up?" he asked in a low voice.

Leanna shook her head.

Aidan then walked over and gently hugged her. "Go back to sleep."

Leanna could tell that he had just come back from the coolness of his skin and clothes.

As she had slept well, she was gradually waking up. She found a comfortable position leaning against Aidan and asked, "Are you busy again recently?"

"It's not too bad. I can find time to have a baby."

Can't this man be serious for one moment?!

She proceeded to ignore him.

Aidan continued to coax her in a voice laced with a hint of a smile. "Alright now, sleep a little longer."

Leanna looked at the time and saw that it was only a little after 6.00AM.

Indeed, it was still early.

She closed her eyes again, but whispered softly, "The company has a break room, right? It's troublesome for you to keep coming back and forth. It's better to just sleep there."

Aidan's voice was low. "I'm afraid you'll worry if you don't see me after you wake up."
