The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 299

The only place Zachary wanted was the house filled with memories of him and Annalise.

Steven replied, "When I bought that house, I put it directly under your name."

Zachary hadn't expected this at all, and he blinked in surprise. Steven always bought properties under his own name. Even during the divorce, there were barely any assets under Annalise's name.

Back then, she had been so hurt that she didn't want anything—she just wanted to leave.

If this house was under his name, it must have been because Annalise fought for it.

Zachary's chest tightened, and his eyes stung. She had been thinking of him even when he didn't realize it.

"Thank you, Daddy," he said softly.

After hanging up, he turned to Harry and said, "You can move in with me, but you can't touch Mommy's things. Can you do that?"

Harry nodded. "No problem."

Having gotten Harry's reassurance, he relaxed slightly.

When the car pulled up to Chloe's house, he called out to Harry and Hannah to help him.

Chloe greeted them with a warm smile. "Zach, you're back!"

"Yeah," Zachary replied, uncertain of how he should face Chloe. "I've been here long enough, and I don't want to trouble you any more. It's time for me to go home."

Chloe's smile didn't falter. "Take care and be sure to get along well with your dad."

Zachary didn't respond directly, and he simply muttered, "We'll see."

Since he hadn't stayed at Chloe's for long, there wasn't much to pack. With Harry and Hannah's help, his things were quickly gathered.
