The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 498

The psychiatrist didn't respond to Steven right away. Instead, he asked, "Are you willing to spend money on Annalise right now?"

That question caught Steven off guard. He paused, really thinking about what the psychiatrist had just asked. Spend money on Annalise? How much?

The psychiatrist went on. "You said you'd be pretty upset if she were with someone else. So, would that bother you more than Jessica getting married?"

That hit Steven hard. He suddenly realized he'd never even considered these questions before.

"Once you figure out the answers to the questions I asked, you'll have to decide if you really want Annalise back because you love her or if it's just that you can't stand the thought of her moving on without you.

"Or maybe you just miss how easy she made things for you. But to you, her work is worth no more than a nanny's pay, so that's all you're willing to offer.

"You're not ready to give her anything more than that. Once you have your answer, you won't need me to tell you what your feelings for Annalise really are."

"Thank you," Steven replied.

He left the hospital and headed back to his office, closing the door behind him. He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing into the distance.

After talking to the psychiatrist, he was certain he didn't have feelings for Jessica. But what about Annalise? How did he really feel about her?

Steven was lost, and his thoughts were all over the place.
