The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 148

Jessica asked softly, "Is that possible?"

Steven didn't answer directly. He merely said, expressionless, "Have you thought about what would happen if I intervened?

Jessica gradually sat up, her expression becoming serious.

Meanwhile, Steven subtly pulled away from her.

"Simple," Steven said flatly. "Keep an eye out on Zane's attitude."

Jessica was unwilling but couldn't find another solution, so she reluctantly agreed, "Alright."
