The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 284

Zachary had been down ever since they talked to Annalise yesterday.

Hoping to cheer him up, Harry showed him the phone.

Zachary took one look and said without hesitation, "Buy it!"

Harry placed the order.

That seemed to lift Zachary's spirits a bit as he headed into kindergarten.

Why wouldn't they allow stuffed animals in kindergarten? If they did, he could buy one of Annalise's plush dolls to keep there. Then, she could be with him both at home and school!

…

In the conference room, Zane called Sasha. "Come see me. I need to discuss something work-related."

"Work?" Sasha panicked instantly. Had he noticed her gossiping in the office instead of working? Was she about to be fired?

Zane replied coolly, "Yes."

Her heart in her throat, what should have been a two-minute walk took her ten. She opened the door with an awkward smile. "Mr. Huxham..."

Zane got straight to the point. "Do women like vulnerable men?"

Sasha's eyebrow shot up in disbelief. Why was he asking her this? Was he trying to set her up with someone?

She waved her hands frantically and said, "Absolutely not! If you know someone like that, keep him far away from me!"

Seeing her strong reaction, Zane clarified, "I'm not interested in meddling in others' love lives."

"Then, what's this about?" Sasha was even more confused.
