The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385 

Kreven couldn’t stop thinking. Did he often make Annalise suffer when they were still married? Probably so 

Otherwise, why would Zane say that Annalise wouldn’t choose him anymore? 

She had no reason to jump back in once she had jumped out of this barning påt. 

Seven sat in the cat, staring at Annalise from a distance, as his tears fell uncontrollably. 

His logical side told him that he needed to stay away from her if he wanted Annalise to be happy. It should be enough as long as Annalise was happy. 

But he couldn’t do 

Even now, if he’s sneak peek at Annalise after work, he felt like he would fall apart any second. 

Sadden, his phone rang 

Steven glanced at the screen and saw Jessica calling. He picked up the phone and casually greeted her. “Hello?” 

This afternoon, Annalise had people cyberbully me Jessica flat–out lied. “You’ve defended me, right? 

“ates we hang up, you never contacted me again. Can I know what happened after?” 

steven’s expression suddenly turned grim after hearing her words. “Do I look like a fool to you? Jessica, is it because I’ve been giving you some leeway lately? “Have I give you the illusion that I still love you? So now you think you can boss me around and use me however you like? 

jessica said incredulously, “Steven, I don’t understand what you mean. 

Sven was fed up. ” know you understand well enough. You went online looking for trouble with Annalise and got countered by her. 

“The readers couldn’t stand you stirring things up, so they started criticizing you 

“And what did you tell me? That Annalise started the online bullying against you!” 

Steven felt ridiculous just recalling it. “I believed you and went to find Annalise to stand up for you. 

“And what did I get in return? I only learned what was going on after getting ripped a new one! Worse still, I had no way to refute it. 

“Jessica, from now on, I won’t believe a single word you say!” 

Jessica hadn’t expected Steven to expose her lies so blatantly. Her face turned ashen. She knew that it she continued to lie, it would only make him angrier. 

So, she apologized. “Sorry. Steven, I was just really emotional after being scolded during my pregnancy. So, I wanted you to stand up for me. 

“If you don’t like it, I won’t do it again.” 

Jessica pressed her lips together, her gaze falling on her belly. Steven didn’t care about her, but he cared about the child inside her. 

Steven sneered “Is that so?” 

It seemed like persuading Steven was useless.
