The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 232

Zane thought for a long time before answering, "It's not that urgent."

I asked, "Can I finish the drawings for the next two days and come to you afterward?"

Zane nodded. "No problem."

With his confirmation, I buried myself in work until 3:00 pm, finally catching up on everything I had missed.

After stretching out a bit, I started on the tasks Zane had assigned to me, beginning with Willow...

She was undeniably the female lead of the comic.

Perhaps because I had a soft spot for Willow, the drawing turned out delicate and adorable. One glance was enough to make anyone fall in love with her.

Once I finished, I found myself wondering who to draw next.

I glanced at Zane, who was seated at his desk, diligently handling work matters. After a moment of hesitation, I walked up to him. "I just wanted to confirm—when you say 'main characters' for the dolls, do you mean..."

"Our little family," Zane replied without thinking.

"Got it." I returned to my desk and continued working.

…

Meanwhile, Steven was at the office, trying to figure out what was bothering him. Whenever he stayed away from Jessica, his mood always seemed to improve, no matter where he was.

He felt like he should reach out to her and check on her, but the moment that thought crossed his mind, he instinctively resisted it.

In the end, Steven forced himself to pick up his phone and contact Jessica. "How are you doing?"

Jessica gently placed her hand on her belly. "I'm fine. Don't worry about me."

Steven was left speechless, his mind consumed by a single thought.
