The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 344

Zane just couldn't bear to let go. "I want to stay with you a little longer."

I laughed and replied, "But I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere. Zane, you still need to make money and care for Willow. What will your many employees do if you get lost in love and stop paying attention to the company?"

Finally, Zane reluctantly let go of me. But before returning to his desk, he pulled me into his arms for another deep kiss.

After he left, I looked at the computer screen. I knew how to proceed with the next part of the drawing now.

Then on, I focused on sketching the outlines.

Once I finished, I turned around. I was surprised to find Zane secretly watching me, and I walked over to him. "Don't you feel like working right now?"

"I've finished today's tasks," he replied.

Perhaps it was because we had just confirmed our relationship, but standing across from me, Zane felt like the distance between us was too great.

He grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his embrace. "So, you should make time to be with me too. Let's consider it a celebration of our first day together. How does that sound?"

How had I never noticed before that he was someone who valued couple traditions?

Though I found it a little amusing, I decided to indulge him. "Okay."

Zane was thrilled and leaned in to kiss me again.

"Creak." The office door was pushed open, and Zane's face turned ashen.

He instinctively pulled me into his arms to shield me from being seen. "Remember to knock next time when you come in."

Sasha was surprised, asking, "Is this what it's like in the office with you two, just hugging and cuddling?"

Was this how couples behave nowadays? Honestly, she felt a bit envious!
