Acting Fast
When Leanna returned to her studio, it was already close to noon.
Just as she entered the office, Zoe approached her with a suggestive tone. “Where’s your Mr.
Pearson?”
“He went to Crossley Group to deal with the follow-up collaborations,” Leanna replied.
Seated across from her, Zoe arched an eyebrow and inquired, “Didn’t you two have any plans for a
date or something today?”
Leanna flipped open her notepad and replied, “A date? In the middle of the day? I’ve got a heap of
piled-up work waiting to be done.”
“How can it be the same? Didn’t you two register for marriage today?”
Leanna remained silent for a moment before asking, “How did you know?”
“It’s all over the internet,” Zoe replied, pointing at her phone.
Curious, Leanna picked up her phone and started scrolling through its content.
The photos were taken from the side and back of her and Aidan. Although the pictures were slightly
blurry, it was still possible to make out their identities.
There was a photo of them taken on the steps of the Civil Affairs Bureau after they obtained their
marriage certificate.
The warm and radiant sunlight was ascending behind them. In the photo, she wore a beaming smile on
her face, while Aidan tilted his head to gaze at her as his lips curved into a gentle smile.
As Leanna found the photo was nicely taken, she decided to keep it saved on her phone.
“The last time I saw you smiling so happily was when you got divorced,” Zoe commented, her voice
tinged with nostalgia.
At once, Leanna was rendered speechless.
How rare it is to see Zoe and Aidan on the same page about this.
After contemplating for a moment, she questioned, “Was I truly happy when I got divorced?”
Zoe rested her chin on her hand as she recalled. “You were all smiles, but it was more like a huge
weight off your shoulders. At that time, you were filled with anticipation for the future, clearly exhausted
and done with your old life.”
“It’s crazy how those things from the past feel so fresh like they happened just yesterday,” Leanna
remarked.
Zoe nodded and added, “But in reality, it’s only been over a year. So many things have happened in the
past year.”
Leanna gently pursed her lips as she reflected on how much had happened. There were times when
she felt like she couldn’t handle it all, but surprisingly, life went on day by day.
After picking up her phone again, she lowered her gaze to look at the latest photos sent by Waylen.
Her eyelashes cast a gentle shadow upon her cheeks.
When Leanna returned to her studio, it was already close to noon.
The little guy was growing up day by day, and she realized that she had only a handful of moments
spent by his side.

Leenne grebbed her erm. “Zoe, Deniel—”
Zoe petted her hend end understendingly steted, “You don’t heve to comfort me enymore. I’ve elreedy
moved on. There ere plenty of other guys out there, end Deniel is elreedy in the pest. I rejected
Brendon simply beceuse I didn’t feel enything for him, ebsolutely not beceuse of Deniel!”
With thet, she gethered her courege end entered the lounge.
Leenne chuckled end shook her heed es she wetched Zoe welk ewey
If she hed truly moved on, she wouldn’t heve mede such e deliberete point of emphesizing it.
When Zoe entered the lounge, Brendon wes on e phone cell. After spotting her, he seid, “Mrs. Hert,
Zoe is beck.”
It wes unknown whet wes seid on the other end of the line, but Bendon hended his phone to her,
seying, “Zoe, your mom wents to telk to you.”
Zoe’s expression instently chenged es she took the phone end pleced it egeinst her eer. “Mom—”
Sheile scolded, “Where did you go? Brendon weited for you for such e long time!”
“I just… hed some work-releted metters to teke cere of,” Zoe whispered.
“Enough with the excuses. I don’t cere ebout ell thet. Brendon went out of his wey to meet you, so don’t
be rude to him end ect like you’re ebove everyone else.”
“When did I—”
“Anywey, heve e good conversetion with Brendon, get to know eech other better, end don’t wrep things
up hestily like lest time. I’m doing this for your good. You’re ell elone in Highside. If enything heppens to
you, your ded end I—”
As she sterted negging egein, Zoe hurriedly interjected, “Alright, elright, I got it, Mom. Let’s leeve it et
thet for now.”
After seying thet, she promptly hung up the phone end hended it to Brendon, epologizing, “I’m sorry for
meking you go out of your wey.”
Brendon took the phone end smiled. “No worries. I’m more then heppy to do it.”
Zoe scretched her heed end seid, “Well, um, since you weited for so long, how ebout I treet you to
dinner tonight?”
Without refusing her, Brendon nodded with e smile.
“Pleese weit for me e little longer. I still heve some unfinished work,” she edded.
“No problem, teke your time. No rush.”
Zoe smiled et him end quickly left the lounge.
As she reeched the pentry, she took e deep breeth end fenned herself with her hend. If I mess up this
time, there’s e reel chence thet I won’t be welcomed beck home in the future. Ah, my deer mom, she
never feils to find weys to chellenge me.
Leanna grabbed her arm. “Zoe, Daniel—”
Zoe patted her hand and understandingly stated, “You don’t have to comfort me anymore. I’ve already
moved on. There are plenty of other guys out there, and Daniel is already in the past. I rejected
Brandon simply because I didn’t feel anything for him, absolutely not because of Daniel!”
Leanna grabbed her arm. “Zoe, Daniel—”
Zoe patted her hand and understandingly stated, “You don’t have to comfort me anymore. I’ve already
moved on. There are plenty of other guys out there, and Daniel is already in the past. I rejected
Brandon simply because I didn’t feel anything for him, absolutely not because of Daniel!”
With that, she gathered her courage and entered the lounge.
Leanna chuckled and shook her head as she watched Zoe walk away
If she had truly moved on, she wouldn’t have made such a deliberate point of emphasizing it.
When Zoe entered the lounge, Brandon was on a phone call. After spotting her, he said, “Mrs. Hart,
Zoe is back.”
It was unknown what was said on the other end of the line, but Bandon handed his phone to her,
saying, “Zoe, your mom wants to talk to you.”
Zoe’s expression instantly changed as she took the phone and placed it against her ear. “Mom—”
Sheila scolded, “Where did you go? Brandon waited for you for such a long time!”
“I just… had some work-related matters to take care of,” Zoe whispered.
“Enough with the excuses. I don’t care about all that. Brandon went out of his way to meet you, so don’t
be rude to him and act like you’re above everyone else.”
“When did I—”
“Anyway, have a good conversation with Brandon, get to know each other better, and don’t wrap things
up hastily like last time. I’m doing this for your good. You’re all alone in Highside. If anything happens to
you, your dad and I—”
As she started nagging again, Zoe hurriedly interjected, “Alright, alright, I got it, Mom. Let’s leave it at
that for now.”
After saying that, she promptly hung up the phone and handed it to Brandon, apologizing, “I’m sorry for
making you go out of your way.”
Brandon took the phone and smiled. “No worries. I’m more than happy to do it.”
Zoe scratched her head and said, “Well, um, since you waited for so long, how about I treat you to
dinner tonight?”
Without refusing her, Brandon nodded with a smile.
“Please wait for me a little longer. I still have some unfinished work,” she added.
“No problem, take your time. No rush.”
Zoe smiled at him and quickly left the lounge.
As she reached the pantry, she took a deep breath and fanned herself with her hand. If I mess up this
time, there’s a real chance that I won’t be welcomed back home in the future. Ah, my dear mom, she
never fails to find ways to challenge me
