Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 232

When Louis alTived back at the studio, Leanna was happily chatting with Zoe. The smile on her face instantly vanished upon realizing he had returned with dirty, rumpled clothing and bnlises on his face. Frowning, she hun•ied over to him and asked, "What happened to you, Louis?"

"Nothing much." He looked away "There are only a few bnlises. Don't worry."

"How can I not worry? You were fine when you left. Be honest with me; where did you go?"

"Yeah, Louis," Zoe interjected, walking over. "What happened to you? Tell us. "

Leanna frowned harder; she had a bad feeling about this. "Did you—"

"It is only a fight with a classmate," he interrupted calmly. "It is not as bad as you think. "

"Why on earth would you be fighting with a classmate?"

"Well, the fight is over." It was obvious that he did not want to elaborate fulther. "There is no point in asking why. "

Leanna did not believe him. She was about to say something when Zoe stopped her with a tug on the arm. "Let it be. He is a hotblooded young man. It is nonnal for him to get into scuffles with his classmates. Don't wony so much. He is an adult now. He knows when to stop. "

She then tugged Louis on the ann. "Well, don't just stand there. Attend to the injuries on your face. Don't let them get infected."

"Okay," he replied.

He turned and headed into the break room at the back of the studio.

Once he was gone, Zoe nudged Leanna with her elbow. "Are you still worried?"

Leanna shook her head. "It just feels like he was not telling the truth."

Louis was not an impulsive man. Why would he ever get into a fight with his classmate just because of a clash of opinions?

Also, he had clearly left the studio to attend to something impoltant.

"He did not tell you the truth because he was worried you would overthink," Zoe said. "You saw him, right? He is still capable of standing. He ufll be fine.'

"Hopefully. " Leanna let out a heavy sigh.

A few minutes later, the door to the break room opened.

Louis, who was holding gently dabbing antiseptic liquid onto his wounds with a cotton swab, turned to find Leanna standing in the doorway. "I really am fine," he said, putting down the cotton swab.

Leanna sat down beside him on the couch and stuck a Band-Aid on him. "A fight with a classmate is no trivial matter. After all, you could just talk it out."

He pursed his lips and kept quiet.

"I will let it be this time, but this will not happen again. "

"Okay," he replied.

"I will be heading to Weavside tomorrow evening, but I will be back in a few days, " she said. "Spend that time looking for a new place. You cannot keep living ufth Daniel. "

"I do not think he did it on purpose, " he said after a pause; he knew what she was hinting at.

"I do not care if it was done on pulpose. It is all in the past now, and there is no use in explanations. I merely think it would not be nice to trouble him by staying at his place for too long. Surely you have noticed by now that nothing else has happened to me since then. "

He nodded. "I will move out tomorrow."

"Find a new home first," she reminded, standing up. "As for the money, I will—"

"I have my own money, " he intemupted sulkily.

She chuckled. "Okay. I will leave it to you, then. '

Just as she was about to leave the room, he suddenly asked, "How are things between you and Elijah?"

"What do you mean?"

It took a moment before she replied. "You were right. I do not like him. No matter how much we tried, there is no use.'
