Love’s Change of Heart novel Chapter 679

Chapter 679 You’re Still Engaged

Back at the hotel, Aidan contacted someone from Jamesdon.

It was already late at night in Jamesdon, even though it was just late afternoon in Lachstein.

Through the video, Leanna saw the little guy lying on the crib, sound asleep and completely undisturbed by the chaos reigning outside.

Naomi and Waylen were also nearby.

They were at Naomi's mother's old house. It had been 50 to 60 years since her mother married Kian, and the house was practically deserted.

With Kian's death, no one else in the Woodley Family knew about this place.

Aidan discovered this house when he was investigating Naomi's past in Jamesdon. Therefore, he decided to send them all there.

Ever since the incident with the Woodleys, all fingers were pointed toward Lachlan as the prime suspect.

Waylen sensed the crisis immediately. Just as he was about to evacuate the entire laboratory, he met Aidan's men, and they were brought here immediately.

Naomi was picked up from the Woodley Family Estate and arrived almost at the same time as the rest of the entourage.

When the news of the deaths of several Woodley elders started spreading, and things started to take a turn for the worse, the laboratory and Naomi's place were immediately cleared out.

Once Leanna saw that they were all safe and sound, she felt a wave of relief crashing into her like a tidal wave. It was already late at night, so she hung up without taking more of their time.

"Do you feel better now?" Aidan asked.

Leanna turned to look at him. "Did you expect that something like this might happen? If we had been a moment later…"

"Jamesdon is not a peaceful place at all. Anything will happen at a moment's notice. It doesn't matter whether Lachlan is there. A similar thing has happened once, so I'm making sure that it will never happen again," he answered flatly.

She lowered her head, and a small smile crept onto her face.

Aidan was indeed more far-sighted and thoughtful than she thought he was.

After a while, she said, "What about Lachlan? How is he doing now? I'm sure the Woodleys wouldn't take things lightly, especially when such a big thing has happened."

"Don't worry. He's fine."

Leanna was silent for a while before saying, "Are we going back to Highside tomorrow night?"

Aidan hummed in agreement.

"Then, what about Daniel? If Leroy really has Daniel in his clutches, it means that he…"

It bodes ill for that poor man.

However, Aidan grabbed her hand and comforted her. "Don't worry. If Leroy chooses to take Daniel away, it means he has a use for Daniel. Daniel will be his bargaining chip. So, until Leroy gets what he wants, he will not kill Daniel."

She pursed her lips slightly. "Even so, Daniel is still in a perilous situation. I… don't know how to inform Zoe about this."

"No one expected or wanted this, so you shouldn't be blaming yourself. If she asks you, just tell her the truth. If she doesn't, you don't have to tell her."

Leanna lowered her head and did not answer.

Aidan ruffled her hair softly, saying, "Don't overthink things. You've been in Lachstein for over half a month and spent almost every day at the hospital. Why not go for a walk around town these two days?"

…

The next day, Zoe and Charlotte arrived at the studio as per usual.

Louis was about to leave after he dropped them off when Zoe stopped him. "Louis, where are you going?"

"I need to film a shoot. Today's the last episode, and we still need to take some promotional photos."
