Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 662

Chapter 662 Running Late

Well, if he puts it like that, I can't refuse. Leanna looked at the ring silently.

Joseph said, "If Charlotte knows of this, she'll want you to keep it for her as well." His phone rang, and he looked at it. "I must be going now, Miss McKinney."

When Joseph came out, Charlotte approached him. "You're leaving, Uncle Joseph?"

Joseph nodded. "Be good, alright? I might not be able to come here again."

Curious, Charlotte asked, "Why?"

"My business here is done. It's time to leave."

"Is that so?" Charlotte was reluctant to say goodbye. "There's a lot of fun places here. Sure you don't want to stay?"

Joseph smiled. "I'm not here to play, and so are you. Come back soon. Your father's worried."

Charlotte puffed her cheeks. "Yeah, yeah."

Joseph patted her head and left.

One of her lady colleagues asked, "So, how old is your uncle? He looks so young."

Charlotte thought about it for a moment. "Almost forty. He's ten years younger than my dad."

"Really? He doesn't look that old. My god, what's his skincare routine?"

Leanna emerged from the waiting room and trotted out. Right before Joseph got into his car, she said, "Mr. Woodley."

Joseph turned back. "What is it, Miss McKinney?"

Leanna put the ring box in his hand. "I don't think you should leave this with me. If you want Charlotte to have this, you should give it to her yourself."

Joseph was a little surprised. He paused for a moment and said, "You're worried you might owe me a favor?"

Leanna smiled. "Oh no, your favor isn't something a lady like me is worthy of owing. I just don't want to take something that's not mine." She pushed the box into his hand, nodded, and went back into the workshop.

Joseph saw her off, rubbing the ring box and narrowing his eyes.

Freya was in the hotel, lounging on the couch wearing nothing but a bathrobe. Her hair tumbled down her shoulders with a cigar between her fingers. When Joseph came back, she puffed some smoke. "Failed, did you? Told you she's a smart one."

Joseph sat down before her and took his glasses off, then he wiped the glasses. "I think she's just genuine."

Joseph had heard of the story of Aidan's ex-wife. She did everything she could just to marry him. Back at the exhibition, he could see that she liked this ring, so when Theodore ruined their plan, he bought the ring. He thought Leanna would take it, but instead, she gave it back, much to his surprise.

Freya smiled. "That's Aidan's woman. You shouldn't get any ideas."

Joseph snapped out of it and wore his glasses, then he lit a cigar. "So, did you find anything?"
