The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 370

Sasha said without a second thought, "Never."

Madeline asked, "Hmm?"

"When I confessed to him, he repeatedly told me he wasn't interested," Sasha said boldly. "Later, when I became friends with Annalise, he let me work here because of her too."

"Is that so?" Madeline sounded a bit disappointed. "I thought I'd get to witness a dramatic love story!"

Sasha immediately looked around to make sure no one was listening, then said, "You can't ever mention this again. If Zane hears about it, he'll definitely fire me!"

Madeline quickly covered her mouth. "I got it!"

…

After buying a drink, I twisted the cap off and handed it to Zane.

Zane gulped it down in several swigs. When the burning sensation in his mouth subsided, he realized something.

Madeline showed subtle signs of having a crush on him earlier, only to lower his guard. In reality, her goal all along was to set him up!

Zane took my hand and said, "Let's go back."

"Okay."

I continued to sketch in the office.

Zane sat at his desk in deep thought.

First of all, Madeline didn't have much contact with him. She had no grudge against him, so there was no reason for her to try to get back at him just for the sake of a prank.

Plus, the method of revenge was so childish.

With these considerations in mind, Zane immediately guessed who had been instructing Madeline.

He called Sasha, asking her to bring Madeline to his office.

When Sasha heard Zane's words, her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Madeline beside her.

Madeline blinked her big eyes, looking pure and innocent. She didn't realize danger was already looming.

She asked, "What's wrong?"

Sasha's expression turned serious. "Zane wants us to go see him."
