The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 115

I stepped back to look at Zane carefully.

He stood confidently while letting me inspect. "Well?"

With his sharp features, the black suit made him look even colder and unapproachable. The navy tie added an air of mysteriousness and intensity. I gave him a thumbs-up. "It looks great on you!"

He was also clearly satisfied with the tie. "I've got a meeting to attend now. I guess I'll keep it on since you think it looks good."

I agreed, "Sure."

He was almost at the door when he stopped. He turned back and looked at me. "Eric will drop by later to introduce you to your new editor."

It was only yesterday that he mentioned they were almost done with the recruitment, but today, I already had someone assigned to me. I was astounded by their efficiency. Still, I nodded. "Sounds good."

After he left, I went to my desk and dove back into my sketches.
