The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 115

I stepped back to look at Zane carefully.

He stood confidently while letting me inspect. "Well?"

With his sharp features, the black suit made him look even colder and unapproachable. The navy tie added an air of mysteriousness and intensity.

I gave him a thumbs-up. "It looks great on you!"

He was also clearly satisfied with the tie. "I've got a meeting to attend now. I guess I'll keep it on since you think it looks good."

I agreed, "Sure."

He was almost at the door when he stopped. He turned back and looked at me. "Eric will drop by later to introduce you to your new editor."

It was only yesterday that he mentioned they were almost done with the recruitment, but today, I already had someone assigned to me. I was astounded by their efficiency.

Still, I nodded. "Sounds good."

After he left, I went to my desk and dove back into my sketches.

…

In the conference room, Zane faced Steven across the table.

Recently, Huxham Corporation needed to work with Steven's firm. They had no other options.

Steven kept glaring at Zane's tie with a sour look.

Noticing the stare, Zane remained expressionless. But his usually cool voice took on an amusing edge. He asked, "It's a gift from Annalise. Do you like it?"

Steven forced himself to look away. So, Annalise was not really trying to make up with him. She did not care about his feelings anymore!
