Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 821 There’s Something I Can’t Seem to Figure Out

Rowan was shocked when Zoe said that, and he became pale.

He admitted that she was attractive and that he liked her.

Even so, he was unable to wed a woman who was involved with another man. So he immediately told his mother about her past and quickly deleted her contact information.

But what he didn't expect was that just one day later, she had a new partner, and they appeared to be discussing marriage.

He was unable to accept that which is why he came and asked her.

Rowan, being retorted, naturally lost his poise and sarcastically said, "I'm sure you don't need me to care since you are surrounded by so many men."

Then, he looked at Daniel. As if they were on the same side, Rowan added, "Zoe must have told you, right? She has always had a complicated relationship with this man and they often hang out together. I suggest that you find a better partner to marry if you don't want to be cheated on, Bro."

Zoe realized that when an egoistic man's true colors were revealed, they would reveal such an ugly side of themselves.

How she could be associated with such trash as Anthony and Rowan baffled her.

However, before she could speak, Daniel had already replied with an indifferent tone. "Is that so?"

Rowan heard that and couldn't help feeling secretly pleased. He was about to continue when he heard Daniel affectionately remark, "But I fell in love with Zoe at first sight. I can't live without her. As long as she is willing to marry me, I will do anything."

Surprised, Zoe thought, Is he crazy?

Rowan's expression changed. "Bro, you…"

Daniel looked at him, and declared, "I believe that as long as I like her and treat her well enough, she will eventually fall in love with me. Otherwise, if I can't win her over like this, I can only blame myself for not being charming enough and not as good as the person she likes, don't you think?"

Rowan's grip on the trash tightened immediately, and his face flushed, but he couldn't come up with a retort.

Daniel took a step forward and patted his shoulder. "Thanks, Bro. Thank you for telling me that there is such a strong competitor. I'll work harder to win Zoe's heart and snatch her away as soon as possible. Please be my groomsman when we marry."

He spoke, then grabbed Zoe, who was next to him, and walked out without waiting.

Rowan stood still, although the man's tone and attitude weren't too bad, he felt like he had been slapped hard.

An awkward and embarrassed feeling swept over him instantly.

After leaving the apartment complex, Zoe shook off her hand. "Why did you say that to him?"

Daniel stopped and raised an eyebrow. "Should I tell him up front that I am the partner you're having a complicated relationship with? I'm fine with that. Do you want to go back now? But I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it to your mother."

When it came to this, Zoe gritted her teeth in resentment, saying, "You know that I can't explain it to my Mom. Why didn't you think before giving me that thing?"

Daniel's eyebrow twitched. Although she was being vague, he understood.

He asked, "Did you bring it home?"

Zoe was silent and her face instantly turned red. "How would I know! I simply threw it in my clothes, and when my Mom was doing the laundry…" Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Daniel turned around and started to walk back right away.

She hurriedly grabbed him and yelled, "What are you doing?"

Daniel said, "Let's confess to your mother now. Perhaps we can get married tomorrow."

"Give me a break!" exclaimed Zoe.

Daniel turned his head to face her, a smile spreading across his lips. "Is that a yes?"

"I-I didn't say that." Zoe stammered. "Alright. Go back to your hotel now. I'm going home."

Daniel said, "What if that man is waiting for you downstairs? Aren't you afraid?"

She frowned. "Why would he wait for me? Is he waiting for me to scold him?"

"Never underestimate what a man who loves you but cannot have you can do."

Zoe didn't know what to say. Is he talking about himself?

Rowan was indeed not only a mama's boy but also arrogant, but he was at least a university teacher. At most, he would make a few snide remarks about her to vent his anger. He wouldn't do anything extreme.

Moreover, there were security guards patrolling the apartment complex. If something really happened, then she might as well not go home in the future.

Seeing that she was indifferent, Daniel changed his strategy. "I feel a little dizzy. Can you take me back to the hotel?"

Zoe replied, "I can call a taxi for you. After all, you took care of me in Lachstein."

Daniel laughed and added, "Yes, and we ended up in bed."

Upon hearing that, Zoe glared at him. "Shut up!"

Just as she took out her phone to call a taxi, she suddenly received a message from Leanna.

She glanced at it, furrowed her brows lightly, and slowly put down her phone.

Daniel asked, "Did you change your mind? Are you worried about me now?"

Zoe made a coughing noise, and remarked, "Right. I'd better take you back to the hotel so you won't throw up in the car and be taken to the police station."

Daniel didn't respond.

It didn't matter how she changed her mind—he didn't know why—only that she did—the process didn't matter.

"Let's go," replied Daniel.

The walk from here to the hotel would take about twenty minutes, and the two walked side by side without speaking.

After a while, Zoe finally brought up the subject. "There's something I can't seem to figure out."

Daniel questioned, "What is it?"

Zoe answered, "I remember you asked me about Louis before, and we also talked about Jethro."

Daniel nodded slightly. "Yes."

"Do you think," Zoe said while turning to look at him, "Louis and Jethro look alike?"

Daniel paused for a moment before responding, "I haven't had much contact with Jethro, so I don't know him well and I'm not very sure."

"Forget about other things. In terms of appearance, do you think they look alike?"

Daniel thought for a few seconds, and said, "No."

Zoe continued, "I think so too. Louis, who is exceptional in every way, could not have been conceived by someone like Jethro. It's a very interesting coincidence. Nana showed me her Dad's photo album some time ago, and I found that he looked like Louis when he was young. Have you seen that photo?"

"No."

"You can check it out when you get back to Highside. But on that note, did William test Louis for paternity? He's not Louis' father, that much is already confirmed, right?"

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?" Daniel questioned.

Widening her eyes, Zoe replied, "It's just something that came up since we're having a chat. If you don't want to talk, then forget it. I'll go home instead."
